Title: そうして‥抱きかかえて寝る

I find it challenging to express why their story captivates me so profoundly. It's an unusual connection between an assassin and a spy who seems detached from life, compelling me to uncover their fate.
Picture a young woman confronting a teenager, the very one who took the life of her fiancé. Yet, when she gazes at him, she sees not a ruthless murderer but an immature boy, despite the blood on his hands and her lack of affection for him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Consider an idealistic teenager, entrenched in a world devoid of personal sentiments, making calculated decisions for a revolution. Then, he encounters a woman, experiencing an immediate and deep attraction that evolves into profound love. Her mere presence brings him solace, even amidst the most tumultuous times.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Perhaps it resonates because these two teenagers, worlds apart, find a connection through blood, deceit, and revolution. Despite societal forces working against them, they are willing to go to great lengths to protect each other.
Maybe it's the enduring impact that, even 15 years later, with his newly reconstructed life shattered, merely conversing with her spirit brings an immediate smile to his face.
A story of a cold, calculated, and idealistic young warrior navigating through a spectrum of emotions akin to any young man deeply in love.
While many readers emphasize the tragedy, I perceive it differently. Their story is laden with tragedy because it is infused with an abundance of love.

Новые дизайны персонажей “Бродяги Кеншина”
Вторичный перевод с французского
Tumblr media
Юкисиро Томоэ, 16 том.
По её глазам, чёрным, как эбеновое дерево, в которых не видно зрачков, трудно понять, о чём она думает.
Она обожает книги.
Старинный клинок остался от дальних предков. Один из двух шрамов на щеке Кэнсина оставлен этим ножом.
Заколка украшена снежинкой. Это подарок Акиры Киёсато.
Это шерстяной шарф, так как она мерзлячка.
Она носит чёрное нагабаори*. *прим.пер. Нагабаори похоже на кимоно. Его носят, чтобы защититься от холода, или в качестве церемониальной одежды.
Само кимоно тоже украшено узором из снежинок.
Tumblr media
На обложке Томоэ изображены цветы сливы. В гербах они символизируют мужество, в поэзии – элегантность и верность, кроме того, цветущая слива - любимые духи героини.

“You have to come back to me,” she said hollowly, tears falling freely to land with gentle taps on Kenichi’s sling. She could not bear the loss of a second love. It would kill her; she knew it. “I will always come back to you,” he murmured. “So long as I’m able, I will always come back to you.”

It Is Well, It Is Love
Tumblr media
Years spent training to be the strongest, fastest, and deadliest killing machine has taught Kenshin many things, but the warmth of love and the happiness it brings. Because love is not fitting for the likes of him. The ones who bathed their souls in the blood of innocent humans and swore to wield their swords at anyone who came in their way.
So, Kenshin never expected that happiness would knock on his doorstep in its simplest form: enjoying the freshly brewed tea Tomoe served to him on one sunny afternoon after hours of farming in the field. An unimaginable company that would soften his killer instinct and dull his sword.
The months they spent together were mostly filled with silence. The intimacy shared between them was not built on grand gestures. He did not talk much, and she only spoke to him out of necessity. But all is well. He knew she cared for him, and she knew he would always protect her. Nothing significant has to be done to prove that it is true.
And supposing she may not think of the same, Kenshin does not care much. Because, as it turns out, his heart fits right in the palm of her hand. The pounding of his heart only answers the sound of Tomoe’s voice sweetly calling his name, of the tender gaze she gave as she watched him eat, of the gentle caress of her hand on his scarred cheek. He finds bliss in a place he thought was impossible for him to end up in. But he is here now. He is understood. He is accepted.
Kenshin sighed to himself as he closed his eyes. Tomoe is sitting still next to him. Her gestures are minimal, and yet her undeniable presence grows bigger; it sends a tingle into his skin.
It is love.
His gaze fixated on the slowly setting sun ahead — Sure, it is love. What else can it be?
Tomoe showed him the path to happiness. Love has saved him.

Mysteries of Tomoe's Grave
Tumblr media
Kenshin and Tomoe's relationship is complex. The story remains a mystery and devoid of an objective narrator, only told from the perspective of Kenshin.
Readers of the manga and viewers of the anime are familiar with the grave Kenshin visits ten years after his fight with Shishio and when he finally settles at the Kamiya Dojo as his new home. However, this raises several questions.
Why Kyoto?
Some fans argue that Kenshin and Tomoe's relationship wouldn't have lasted had she lived, believing Kenshin would be overwhelmed with guilt. Yet, Tomoe's grave being in Kyoto is significant evidence to the contrary.
Tomoe didn't die in Kyoto; at the time of her death, she was in the countryside with Kenshin. Weeks after her death, Kenshin learns the truth from Tomoe's diary—that he was the killer of her fiancé. Before her death, she had already confessed to Kenshin that she was from Edo. If Kenshin felt guilty about loving her, it would seem logical to create her actual grave in Edo, not Kyoto. Moreover, if he buried her without much thought, burying her in the countryside, where she took her last breath, would make more sense.
Kyoto was significant as the place where Kenshin and Tomoe met and where Kenshin spent years after her death. Perhaps he wanted her to be close to him, thinking he might not survive the war. When he proposed to Tomoe, he expressed uncertainty about the future and a commitment "till death parts us," which surely stemmed from anticipation of his own death and not hers.
Shocked by her passing, he repeatedly questioned why it happened.
My personal theory is that the temple where Tomoe's grave is located might have been where they were married.
How did he obtain a grave, and who maintains it?
It may seem simple, but Kenshin came from a very poor family, and his involvement with the Ishin Shishi, combined with his lack of interest in wealth or glory, suggests his earnings were very limited. From the beginning of the series, we see Kenshin as poor and essentially jobless. Yet, a grave, especially one in a temple, was and still is very expensive. He must have spent everything he had to secure that grave.
Moreover, when he visits the grave 10 years later, it is still there and remarkably clean, implying he has continued, and perhaps still continues, to pay for the maintenance of the grave.
Will Kenshin eventually be laid to rest there as well?
Tumblr media
Upon examining the image, it's noticeable that Tomoe's grave differs from the others, even though it occupies a similar space. This variation stems from the Japanese tradition where a grave is not solely for an individual but shared with family and, occasionally, friends. Given that "Himura" Tomoe is interred there, it strongly suggests that Kenshin will be buried alongside her after his passing. This prospect adds a poignant sense of closure to their narrative.

Thanks for the tag @threefill !!
Tag game are always fun because I’ve got chronic insomnia and need something to do when I’m up at 4 AM besides tear my hair out over my wips. Answering here because this is where I keep most of my shipping nonsense.
What ship were you completely obsessed with as a teenager, but now you don't care about anymore?
Luke/Mara Jade. I absolutely still care about them, but they did Mara so dirty I had to put it down for a while. I was too mad.
Which ship would you consider your first one?
Okay so, anyone remember that TV show Beauty and the Beast in the 80s/90s, about the people who lived secretly in tunnels under New York City? And there was this guy (the ‘beast’) who looked like a lion person? And he was in love with Linda Hamilton? It was really fucking weird. Anyway. I loved them. LOVED THEM. ❤️❤️❤️
Your first fanfic was about which couple?
It was a little hurt/comfort thing about Luke/Callista from Children of the Jedi, because I’m nothing of not predictable.
My VERY first fanfic was a bunch of scenes of Artoo and C3PO sassing each other, but thats probably not the kind of couple you mean.
Do you remember the first couple you saw fan art of?
The first I can actually remember was some excruciatingly depressing art of Himura Kenshin/Tomoe. (Did I never see Luke/Mara fanart? Really? I must have. That’s weird now that I think about it.)
Have you ever gotten into ship discourse?
Er, don’t think so? Someone gave me shit once for liking Harry Dresden/Karin Murphy cuz Dresden is problematic and I told them to fuck off, does that count?
Did you use to have any NOTP or have one currently?
Reylo kinda squicks me.
Who were the last couple in the last fanfic you read?
Dream/Hob Gadling
Currently, do you have any OTPs?
Dreamling owns my entire brain, at the moment. It’s been YEARS since a ship hit me so hard.
Is there any couple that, to this day, that you are extremely mad about not getting into?
Sort of? I wish Babylon 5 had happened at a time when I could have gotten really involved in fandom, because I would have been bonkers over Sheridan/Delenn. I mean I was, I just had no outlet for it.
Is there any ship you used to dislike but now you think they're kind of interesting?
Nope
Do you have any ship that, in the past, would have been considered normal but now you would be cancelled over?
Oooohhh yeahhhh….James Norrington/Jack Sparrow, I’m guessing.
What is your favourite crack ship?
lol I dunno. I love Matthew the Raven so much, I always have the urge to ship him with someone but he’s, like, a bird.
What is the couple you read the most fanfics about?
Dream/Hob 100% hoo boy
What do most of your ships have in common?
“The grumpy/reserved one is soft for the sunshiny/sassy/wacky one.” It is like catnip to me, and also cocaine.
What do you absolutely hate in a ship?
One looking down on the other, 50 Shades of Gray style, you know the vibe I mean. There’s a difference between snarkiness and contempt.
