That's what my mother used to tell me. When I was little I bragged to her about the firefly I caught at Junie's, and she scolded me. She said it wasn't nice to do that to fallen soldiers...I never understood it, though.

[Simon's expression hardens quite a bit at those words. Metis is always a difficult subject for him.]

Cykes-dono... was very wise. I doubt that she was truly angry with you. She merely hoped to teach you about Japanese folklore.

Mm, I know...she could be very stern and firm with me, but she never got angry. And...she liked doing that. Most of what I know about Japanese culture is thanks to her.

[sadface, this isn't easy for her either. Sorry Trucy, the mood's getting kinda heavy]

[Simon's around, so the mood was bound to get heavy eventually. He's silent for a moment, idly chewing at the feather in his mouth, and then:]

I could always teach you more in her stead, if you desire.

[That sadface turns into a big smile, albeit a sorta tearful one and then a cute "my uncle big brother old friend is the best!" face.]

I'd like that a lot! Thanks, Simon.

[He looks away when Athena breaks into a smile, eyebrows contracting into something of a twitchy frown.]

... It is what Cykes-dono would have wanted. [YUP. He's only offering for his old mentor's sake, and certainly not because he wants to spend more time with his would-be little sis.]

[She knows you adore your little sister, Simon! But she'll keep quiet about it for now.]

So let's pick out somewhere to go! Are you hungry? [this question is directed at both him and Trucy]
