Soothing Muse

Instead of working on the idea I had for the theme weekend like a normal productive human being would have done, I decided to revamp one of my old stories into a MomoJirou fic because I am lazy and suck at prioritization :grinning: :grin: :sweat: .

I normally ship KamiJirou but I still like the idea and dynamic of MomoJirou and I think their personalities really suit the story well sooo.......Hope you enjoy! :blush:

Soothing Muse

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" The musician asked, looking up from her lyre to gaze at the woman sitting in front of her.

The woman hummed along to the lyre and  turned to look at the musician with her glittering black eyes. "Yes," She breathed, turning her face up to the sky once again.

The full moon hung in the night sky, sitting amidst the sea of stars lighting up the cliffside where the pair sat.

"Almost as beautiful as you, milady." The musician commented, a smile playing on her lips.

The woman laughed, "Nowhere near as lovely as you then, hmm?"

She laughed again as the musician's face flushed bright red. The sound like wind chimes in a light breeze. Her thick lush black hair cascaded down her back like a lustrous waterfall as her shoulders shook with uncontained mirth.

"Momo!" The musician said, flustered. "Don't tease."

Momo shook her head, "Tease? I was merely speaking the truth."

She leaned in closer to the musician and cupped her face in her hands before pressing a kiss to her lips. "Kyouka, You are the most beautiful woman I have ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes on."

Kyouka smiled slightly before closing her eyes and resting her forehead on Momo's. "Must you leave?"

Momo would love nothing more than to stay with Kyouka forever. She would do anything to have the chance to live and grow old with this enchanting woman, her one true love.

Known to the world as Selene, Momo-the name Kyouka had chosen for her and the one she preferred- was the Titan of the Moon. Even though Lady Artemis was better known for being the Goddess of the Moon and for riding the Moon Chariot across the night sky, Momo still had duties to attend to.

She breathed in the scent of the woman before her. "You know I must. And you know I will always return. I love you.”

Kyouka smiled ruefully "I know. I love you too."

"Sing for me?" Momo asked,

"Always," And Kyouka began to sing. Her smooth velvety voice singing a song of lovers under the moon. A song of hope and home.

She began playing her lyre again and watched as Momo smiled at her once more, unshed tears making her eyes appear glassy. Kyouka blinked away her own tears as Momo vanished in a silvery glow.

She did not stop singing for a long while, looking up at the moon. A beacon, to let Momo know that she was there, that she was waiting for her at home.
