Smash or Pass: Miroku

🏹 "Pass.", she answered with no hesitation. "While he does have admirable qualities, I do not find him attractive in that sense. He is a man devoted to walk the path of a monk. As such, my ultimate wishes and desires would never align with what he wants to achieve." Whereas Kikyou wanted nothing more than to lay down her bow, one dedicated to monkhood had to be devout to the principles, which included celibacy.

Even if there was a semblance of attraction, she did not believe it would be her place to sway him from his course. If he chose to do so, it would be of his own volition. And even then, she would be uncertain if she was pulling him away from a higher purpose or calling. Far be it for her to come between a man and priesthood after all.
