She looks up as if suddenly alert. “I'm awake, I'm awake,” she yawns out. “Oh, hey, yeah, we're here, and that's Byakuren!” she says excitedly. Kogasa hops from your back and flies in the direction of the woman. “Hey Byakuren!” she yells. The woman looks up in surprise, which was expected, and drops her broom. You run off after Kogasa in an attempt to catch up. The woman, Byakuren, glances from Kogasa to you. As you approach, the details of her clothes become more apparent. A long, flowing outfit that resembles a black coat of sorts with a white dress beneath. A simple apron covers the front of her body and helps restrain her rather large bust. The odd thing about her, though, is the multi-hued hair that shifts from purple to brown. She watches you carefully for a moment before waving, although Kogasa is now in her face and distracting her.
Bits of the conversation can be heard as you approach. “Kogasa, I haven't seen you in a while, my dear!” Byakuren exclaims. A blush comes across the woman's face. “What happened to your...” She points at Kogasa's crotch, which causes the younger girl to pull her skirt down in embarrassment. Byakuren's eyes glance in your direction and a sly grin come across her face. “Nevermind, I have an idea. I'll get you a new pair in a bit.” She leans in to hug Kogasa and give her a kiss on the cheek. “Go on inside, there's some food on the table, dear.” Kogasa thanks her happily and walks inside.
“It's nice to meet you, Byakuren,” you greet her.
Byakuren's kind eyes study you. “You must be Yukari's friend, aren't you?” When you confirm her suspicions she smiles warmly. “I've been expecting you, and I've been told you met one of my children, yes?”
You nod. “Yes, I met Nazrin recently at Yukari's home.”
“She came home in a rather interesting state,” she says idly, picking up her broom. “Now that I see you, and judging from Kogasa, I think I understand.” You stand there, dumbstruck, and swallow nervously. “If you think I'd be upset, you've got another thing coming, young man.”
You cock your head curiously. “To be honest I'm quite confused at this point, Byakuren.”
She shakes her head. “Please, call me mother instead,” she requests politely. How odd of this woman to ask you such a thing. “As for your foibles, I'm quite pleased that you're building up relationships with the youkai.” Byakuren gives you this strange, knowing smile. “Yukari, her family,” she begins, “Nazrin, Kogasa, and others I imagine.” She chuckles quietly. “I like you, dear, you're helping bring youkai and humans closer together.”
You shrug to her. “I don't know, Bya...” She coughs loudly. “Sorry. Anyway, I'm not from around here so I don't 'get' the stigma of youkai and all that.”
Byakuren extends her hand, which you take. She helps pull you up on to the exterior walkway. “It's a long story, perhaps I'll have time to explain some of it while you're here.” She directs you inside of her home. “Why don't you join Kogasa and have a snack? I'll be in shortly.” Byakuren grabs your arm before you leave. “Oh, you look like a strong man, would you mind taking these to the kitchen?” she asks, gesturing to a few boxes. Byakuren's hand squeezes gently on your arm a few times as if she were appraising your body.
“Sure, mother,” you answer her, feeling rather strange. She smiles and releases your arm. After setting the sword against the wall inside, you pick up the pile of boxes and carry them tentatively down the hall. You easily find the kitchen, which is open, and enter. Immediately you set the boxes down in a corner. Kogasa sits at the table, eating from a large container situated in the center.
Kogasa looks up and waves. “She's so weird, isn't she? I bet she made you call her that already, too.”
You laugh in response to Kogasa. “What, made me call her 'mother'?” you ask. She nods excitedly and eats a bit more. “Yeah, it's weird, but I don't mind. I never knew mine, so it might not be bad to have that sort of figure around.”
“Huh?” she says confusedly.
“Never mind, Kogasa,” you mutter. “So, I hope you left some for me.” You seat yourself beside Kogasa and dig into the food.
Byakuren steps inside a few moments later. “I trust you're enjoying the food?” she asks. Byakuren smiles wide when Kogasa and yourself nod appreciatively. She removes her apron and hangs it up, her fairly large breasts now free from the restraint. The front of her dress is held together by a crisscrossing pattern of fabric, but it doesn't stop her breasts from swaying as she moves. “The secret ingredient is a mother's love,” she says with a wink. She sits down across from you at the table and has a few bites herself.
You set your chopsticks down and look at Byakuren. “So, you seem to know a bit about me.” She looks up at you and smiles. “Tell me a bit about yourself?” you inquire.
She stops eating and pauses to swallow before speaking. “There's not much to say,” she shrugs. “I run the local Buddhist temple, and I live here with my children.” You give her an expectant look, which she picks up on. “You've met one of them, Nazrin. Her and Shou are around but the others are elsewhere.” Byakuren's gaze rests on Kogasa. “My dear Kogasa here isn't around often, she's usually out playing tricks on humans,” she sighs. “She means well, but it doesn't always help. One of the priestesses abused her in retribution.”
Kogasa's shoulders droop. “Sanae was mean to me,” she whines. You tuck that name away into memory in case you encounter this priestess. “I don't like mean humans.”
You pat Kogasa on the back gently. “Hey, if I meet her, she'll get what she has coming to her.” Byakuren giggles to herself and Kogasa gives you a tight hug, rubbing her head against your chest.
“She's a sweet girl, isn't she?” Byakuren asks. You nod and ruffle Kogasa's hair. “You asked me something, so I'd like to know about the sword you brought along.”
“It was a gift from a friend, I'm learning how to use it to and tap into spiritual power.” You give her a shrug. “Well, as far as I know anyway, I'm still getting used to this world.”
Byakuren smiles and idly plays with her chopsticks. “It must be interesting to be in this place as an outsider,” she muses. “I can see why Yukari kept you, though.”
You raise an eyebrow. “Why would that be?” you ask with a chuckle. Kogasa seems to be focused on eating and not paying attention to either of you.
Byakuren slides from her seat and moves beside you. “You're a kind man,” she says. She moves in behind and wraps her arms around your chest. “Young and strong as well,” she continues, her hands feeling up your chest. You blush as her hands continue. Kogasa still seems to be in ignorant, food-induced bliss. Byakuren's experienced hands roam downwards. One of them lightly squeezes your crotch. “And I imagine virile too,” she whispers into your ear. “Perhaps mother will help take care of you while you stay with her.” Byakuren retreats from you with a giggle and returns to her side.
You stare at Byakuren in shock. “Hey, are you okay?” Kogasa asks suddenly, breaking you from your state of shock and causing you to jump. “Surprised you again!” she states proudly.
Shaking your head, you glance at Kogasa. “Yeah, I'm okay,” you assure her.
Byakuren folds her hands and smiles at the both of you. “I've got a room ready for you,” she tells you. “And Kogasa, you'll sleep in yo--”
“No!” Kogasa interrupts. “I want to sleep with my human,” she whines, dropping her chopsticks and grabbing your arm.
Byakuren simply smiles. “Alright, you'll sleep with him, then. I'll show you to your room, bring your sword along so you have a safe place for it.” She stands up from her seat and gestures towards the door. You nod and step out, grabbing the sword from the entrance and returning to the doorway. Byakuren and Kogasa walk past you and down the hall. She slides open a door and ushers everyone inside. “I'm across the hall, Nazrin's room is next to mine and Shou is adjacent to you.”
Kogasa takes the sword from your hand and sets it, along with her umbrella, in a corner of the room. “There we go,” she mumbles to herself and crosses her arms in satisfaction.
Byakuren approaches you from behind and places a hand on your shoulder. “I've got a bit to do, but feel free to explore the house.” She walks in front of you and fixes her smile on you. “You should meet Shou when you get a chance, I'm not sure where in the house she is right now,” Byakuren tells you. She leans in and whispers into your ear. “Feel free to help make her more comfortable with humans,” she offers, moving to leave the room. Byakuren pauses for a moment as she walks by you. “My girl is quite a tiger in bed, so be careful,” she warns you quietly. She leaves the room, chuckling to herself.
You shut the door behind her and turn to Kogasa. “Hey, Kogasa, I was wondering something,” you say. She turns to you and gives you a curious look. “It's a bit personal, but I was wondering if Byakuren ever did anything with you.”
She nods her head vigorously. “Yeah, you mean like what we did? She's done that with everyone,” she answers. “Everyone being her children, sort of.” This confirms what Nazrin told you earlier. “She's weird, and I was right, you two are getting along,” she adds cheerfully. Kogasa yawns loudly and looks at the futons. “I'm gonna take a nap, I think.” She lays down on the futon, which happens to be the only one in the room since it was intended for you.
