Summary
Youko, Watanabe, and the performance of trust.
Lately, Youko wonders if she thinks too much about pointless things – or perhaps it’s more that she is afraid that she thinks too much about things which should be pointless to her. She knows that she’s far from one of those powerful, all-knowing kitsune of legend, but she is still a kitsune in heart and soul, and most importantly, in her fundamental being. These fleeting moments that she spends with humans should be nothing more to her than the transient passing of the seasons – something to be enjoyed, but not mourned when they are gone. Next year, spring will come once again; next decade, there will be other humans to amuse herself with.
Therefore, wasting so much thought on a single human seems somehow like it should be underneath her.

Summary
Watanabe does Youko's makeup, and she feels alarmingly like herself.
There’s something rather thrilling about having Watanabe kneel in front of her, especially when she’s still in her sleeping clothes and Watanabe is fully dressed – it isn’t like her, or so she’d like to believe, to indulge in fantasies of being waited upon like a noblewoman – but the temptation is certainly there. “Your skin is already fair, so I won’t apply anything on top of it,” Watanabe says. “Close your eyes.”
Youko obeys, trying to not flinch as Watanabe draws along the corner of her eye with something that feels cool and liquid and yet sticky all at once – it doesn’t feel unpleasant, but it does feel unusual, and she wonders for a few moments if she should really be doing something like this, something that feels like it goes against her fundamental nature. She could look like anything she wanted to, if given enough time to work out her transformation; she doesn’t need to bother with human inventions or abide to their arbitrary standards.
It’s just for fun, she tells herself firmly, just as Watanabe lifts the nib off of her face.

Summary
Written for nekokoban on Livejournal and posted as part of a series of Valentine's Day ficlets back in 2008. Just a brief little meditation on tengu and humans.
I no longer recall the details, but there was something somewhere about how attached tengu are to their rice bowls, and it made me think of other attachments that certain tengu have.
