Off We Go!

Kanan: Hey, hey! Is everyone here~? Kasumi: Wait a sec! Sliding in saaaafe! I’m safe, right, Kanan-senpai!? Kanan: I’ll count it as safe! Kasumi: Yes!! Yoshiko: How can you always show up at the last minute like this!? If you’re late, you get 3 extra kilometers of running, you know!? Ruby: Ruby got here 30 minutes early because she was scared. Kasumi: But I didn’t want to show up with bedhead! Hanayo: You can get more than 3 extra kilometers!? Hanamaru: The way you pursue cuteness to that extent... I can’t help but respect it, zura... Umi: Alright, that’s enough chit-chat! I’m about to explain our special combined school practice! Honoka: A triathlon from hell, huh... Kotori: Honoka-chan, shh!!! Setsuna: Hell...! I’ll definitely rise out of it!! Ai: I’m looking forward to how tough it will be. Eli: The route is in your phones, right? Make sure to go through all the checkpoints! Nozomi: If you cheat, we’ll find out~ Chika: You’ll find out? Shioriko: Rina-san created a GPS monitoring system. Rina: If you try to take a shortcut, an alarm will go off. Rina-chan Board says, “Beep!” Chika: Don’t say “beep”!! Kanata: This course... I wonder if Kanata-chan will be able to finish it by the end of today... Karin: Pull yourself together, Kanata! Kanata: There are things that can and can’t be done with sheer willpower~! Ayumu: Somehow, I’m starting to worry too... Shizuku: Don’t worry, Ayumu-san! We’ve been practicing hard too! Maki: But being able to worry means you understand your own abilities. Look at our Nico-chan... Nico: We are absolutely going to be number one!! Absolutely!! Got it!? Rin: Leave it to Rin, nya~! You: Aqours won’t lose either~! Full speed ahead, Yousoro~! Mari: With the leg and body strength I have from training on the beach, this will be a breeze~! Dia: Mari-san, let’s stay focused and push ahead! Lanzhu: Nijigaku is obviously going to be number one! Because Lanzhu’s leading it! Kasumi: The one who’s leading is Kasumin, you know~! Mia: Hey, when are we heading off? It seems like we’re just going to keep babbling on here. Riko: Right, we should get moving soon. Emma: Let’s conquer this hell triathlon and power up together!! Ayumu: Alright, let’s go! Chika: Let’s depart~! Honoka: Let’s move~~~!

- Shizuku's Treasure Hunt! -

Putting on Hairs: Post Production - Hiraeth of a Wolf and Ghost

Primary Pairing: N/A Starring: Ryo and Shizuku Also Starring: Chika, Setsuna, Kasumi Secondary Pairing: ShizuKasu Words: 655 Rating: G AU: Theater, Monsters Fandom: several LL gens, including an N girl from SIF Time Frame: Sometime during the main story Prompt: Hiraeth

---------

Author's Note: Bonus 2nd entry for the 8th that I forgot to post before the primary for the 9th

Summary: Ryo and Shizuku both may suffer from a form of hiraeth

---------

“Yes, Aikawa-san?”

“Ryo, please.”

Chika smiled. “Alright, Ryo-chan. Did you have a question about your character?”

“Indeed. I am curious as to Gwyndolyn’s motivation.”

The main roles of Putting on Hairs had been assigned and now the actors had gathered with the playwright and the director to go over some preliminary things before lines would be practiced and rehearsals started.

“She hates werewolves.” Chika explained.

“Yes, I saw that.” Ryo nodded. “However, there must be a reason for such burning hatred, and for her to take such extreme actions as she does. And I must know these motivations for me to truly understand the character and become her on stage.”

“Uhm…” Chika pursed her lips.

“If I may make a suggestion?” Shizuku spoke up.

“Mm?”

“Gwyndolyn’s name comes from Gwyn ap Nudd, I am correct?”

Chika grinned. “I’m happy someone caught that. I had a lot of fun looking up things for this play.”

“Then you know the name is of Welsh origin.”

“Yup! And associated with the Wild Hunt. And that’s why I made her a Hunter.”

Shizuku nodded. “Then perhaps her motivation could be <hiraeth>?”

“Hee-rye-th?” Chika sounded out the unfamiliar word.

“Oh!” Setsuna suddenly perked up. “A deep sense of longing or yearning for that which has passed. Gwendoln longs for a time when werewolves did not plague her lands!”

“Yes, that was what I had in mind.” Shizuku confirmed. “Perhaps someone she knows or loved was harmed by a werewolf. Or she perceives an imbalance in nature by their existence.”

“Or perhaps she regrets being turned…” Ryo murmured.

“That wasn’t exactly what I was going for…” Shizuku admitted.

Nico bit her tongue, unsure of what to make of her fellow werewolf’s statement.

“Please do not misunderstand me, Shizuku-san.” Ryo bowed slightly. “I am grateful for your observation and believe I have a better understanding of the character I am to play.”

“Right.” Chika spoke up. “I’m gonna add this heerythe thing to the script. Uhm… how do you spell it?”

---------

“Shizuku seemed to have a better understanding of that hearee thing than she let on.” Kasumi observed as she and her girlfriend made their way home.

“Mm…” Shizuku responded neutrally.

Of course Kasumi would be the one to notice. The little gremlin could be clueless about many things, but she often lived up to her proclamation of knowing everything about Shizuku. It was an endearing trait Shizuku loved about her girlfriend, even if it meant situations like this.

“<Hirgaeth.>” Shizuku repeated the term. “My guardians taught me the idea years ago to help me work through my own feelings of longing, loss and grief. I cannot return to the life I once had. The world cannot return to the way it once was. But I can move forward in the world I am in now.”

“And you can resolve your regret and pass on…”

“Well, I cannot exactly die of old age anymore.” The ghost said, perhaps a bit too cheerfully, considering the topic. “But I did promise my Kasumi-chan that I would not pass on without her.” She slipped an arm through her girlfriend’s. “For she is one of my main reasons to stay here.”

“One of?” Kasumi furrowed her brow. “Not the main reason?”

Shizuku smiled. Kasumi pouted. Shizuku laughed.

“Of course Kasumi-chan is the main reason.” Shizuku decided to stop teasing.

“Hmph. Keep that up and Kasumin won’t be making her super special dinner for Shizuko tonight.”

“That’s alright, I don’t need to eat if I discorporate my body.” Maybe the teasing wasn’t done after all.

“He~y! That’s no fair!”

Shizuku laughed again. “Alright, then perhaps I will make dinner instead?”

Kasumi considered the offer for a moment. “No, as much as Kasumin loves Shizuko’s cooking, I already have everything planned for tonight.”

“I’ll look forward to it.”

“You’d better.”

Yet again Shizuku couldn’t help laughing. Happily, she pulled her girlfriend closer as they approached their apartment.

---------

Author's Note Continued: I was trying to think about a second entry for the prompt when I remembered that I have a Welsh named character in one of the plays in PoH, specifically the namesake play. Add in some prior existing thoughts about Shizuku's longing or homesickness for a place lost to time and... other events, and I got this.

I will probably rework a few things when I get around to adding this into the PoH:PP collection. Perhaps mention Maki at some point, as she is playing one of the leads. Maybe give Nico an actual line or two, and Kasumi as well during the character discussion. And since Shizuku is an understudy here, I would want to include Hanayo, the other as well. We'll see.

Ein Fotodokument aus Japan geschickt. Günter Ihle empfing 2019 im August die Bauhauskünstlerin Aishu Gen und Chikae Bando aus Osaka in seinem Atelier. Aishu Gen hatte zu diesem Zeitpunkt ihre vielbeachtete „Form-Licht-Schatten“ Ausstellung im Rahmen der Feierlichkeiten zum 100en Bauhausjubiläum in der Stadtgalerie KUNST-GESCHOSS. Beide Kolleginnen waren begeistert vom Schaffen und Werk von Günter Ihle. Knapp drei Monate später verstarb er. Das große Triptychon im Hintergrund ist in der Ausstellung >in memoriam< zu sehen und käuflich zu erwerben.

Letzter Ausstellungstag - Heute, am Ostersonntag ist die Ausstellung noch bis 18 Uhr zu besichtigen!
