Rishi Rishi and Fudou have adjourned to another room where a dog sized demon spider is crawling around the giant Lunar taking measurements. Rishi is sitting on a chair nearby. She tilts her head. "It seemed like you were perhaps having something else you were wanting to be saying earlier?"
Fudou the Mountain The colossal lunar observes this with both a wary and an appraising eye. He seems rather curious as to how this will all work and so is not entirely relaxed just yet as he keeps his gaze on the demon.

"Hrm..and at which point would you be referring to?" Fudou asks, "I may have had much to say earlier at several different points! I am full of thoughts and opinions, you know..." He finally looks up, giving Rishi a big lopsided grin, "You'll have to narrow it down some.."

Rishi Rishi grins at him. "Well, anything you are wishing to be telling me, then." She leans back, giving Fudou a nice view of her completely nude body, the light layer of fur obscuring very, very little. "It has been a while since we have been doing the talking."
	 The Spider is muttering things like "...*how* many yards?!?" and "This inseam is *how* long!?!" Apparently it hasn't had to clothe someone quite as large as Fudou before.
Fudou the Mountain He quite noticably looks and gets a good look but thankfully for the Spider demon attempting to work with him, has enough self composure and dignity to not react outwardly aside from a growing smile as there is indeed no way around the fact that Fudou is immense in all ways and in some ways perhaps more immense then even that. Careful care and practice has been in use to keep from being more of a walking obscenity then his massive physique already pushes him into being so unfortunantely the Spider has some work to do there even if the giant is growing more relaxed now as he focuses on Rishi.

"Perhaps I was just thinking about when I first encountered you, some seasons ago now, in an ancient ruin. There was some other person there, I believe a solar who has long since moved on. How, in that time, you've blossomed into something heart achingly beautiful and yet unattainable."

His grin returns, "..It is something both bothersome and amusing but such is our lot."

He quiets and then rumbles, "And perhaps I was thinking again about things you told me about your fears when we last talked one on one. Perhaps my mind went to that as well."

Rishi Rishi's smile widens. "I wouldn't say I am the unattainable. Those who are having my heart... They are not minding much who I am sharing my body with." She looks Fudou up and down, her gaze lingering in certain areas. "And, I am being the expert at the shape shifting. I am not thinking there are being that many others who are being enough of the ...sturdy... to be doing such things with you." She smiles at him. "I am also certainly not disliking you."
	 She frowns when he brings that up and looks away for a moment. "I am being a healer. I am not wishing the harm upon others. I am ...not going to be in a war. Not unless..." Her face hardens and she looks away again. Her voice gets a bit husky with emotion. "...When we are being returning to the Great Forks, I am going to become one of those who are Chosen by the Little Gods. It will be a smaller disguise then the one that I am having to wear now. It should be serving me well there and in the other places." She turns back, but she's looking down, refusing to meet his gaze. "It...I am not turning my back upon the one who Chose me, I will simply be serving them under a name that is being more ....socially acceptable." She bites her lip and finally looks up with tears in her eyes. "It is still being painful. Having to be doing the hiding. And I can't simply be doing the leaving. So I may have to be doing the fighting." She sighs. "But I am not wanting to be doing that yet." 

	 "For now... Well, I am knowing the things. If you are knowing any of the Chosen who are being like us and are wanting to be learning the Sorcery or the healing....you may be directing them to me and I will be teaching them."
Fudou the Mountain To the first bit, The Mountain grins, a little mischievious perhaps. He seems to understand her meaning well enough and he shrugs lightly while clasping his hands together. As his fingers lace, a slow flex ripples up and down his monstrous body. Muscles and sinew piling on top of each other and the flex moving like an earthquake down to stir those other regions with appropriate results as Rishi looks there. The monstrous movements are punctuated by Fudou's voice rumbling, "...And I appreciate that! Still, a man can be jealous even if understanding of the circumstances."

He relaxes completely now, resting a huge hand against his hips as she grows more serious and he falls silent. Then he adds,

"Listen..remember that they will never understand you like I can. You will do what you have to do. Our power is in subterfuge as well as destruction. Right? If this is what you want to do then so be it. I dont' know if it's something you -have- to do but if you feel you need to go to ground when in the city then that is your call. That is not what concerns me..."

Rishi Rishi sighs "I am being known to many as the human doctor. If I am suddenly becoming as I am now...I am at least having to be answering the questions. And the Immaculates are not being the idiots. When a skilled healer is suddenly developing the animal mutations, that is being the sign of the Wyld or the Anathema." She shakes her head. "If I am wanting to walk around as I am, I am needing to be changing my face and my name or I am needing to be giving them the explanation. So, I am giving them the Explanation."
	 After listening to him speak, Rishi looks pensive. "What is concerning you then?"
Fudou the Mountain "Perhaps were in different meetings but did I not just witness two of our allies threaten you while in there and not exactly without cause?" offers Fudou as his monstrous arms fold and he leans over slightly to peer at Rishi seriously, "And another to have to remind you of her independance? This is not the first time I have heard word of concern regarding your habits, Rishi. Even before this trip there was discussion on having to be sure you understood boundaries in terms of shaping flesh to grant mutations for the trip here."

Fudou lets his words linger and then offers, "You must remember that we are not -like- them..your passions for them aside. There is cause to be cautious with the chosen of The Unconquered Sun -and- the Dragons and to remember what we're working with. You need to be careful more."

Rishi Rishi frowns. "While I am feeling that they should be knowing me better than that by now, I am supposing that being near the Fae is putting me on the edge." Rishi's forehead furrows. "As for Ammy, we will be having the talk. Possibly I am being the too protective, but so is she taking the stupid risks. We will needing to be finding the balance there."
	 Rishi draws herself up and looks Fudou in the eye. "While I tell others of the options I can give them and I am enjoying the discussing of the potential changes, I am *never* betraying Luna like that!" She looks like she might slap Fudou for saying such a thing for a moment, then covers her own mouth, then looks up, then back down in brief prayer. "...I only wish to give others the same gift that was given me. If people are finding it awkward, well, I should be needing to be doing less of the personal advertising soon." she gives an odd grin. 

	 Rishi headtilts, "So, what would you have me do? Run off into the Eastern Woods and be joining the Witch Queen as one of her students?"
Fudou the Mountain "Never!" rumbles Fudou with a grin. In fact he seems unperturbed that she was about to try and slap him and even more amused when she looked embaressed, "There, you see? You have great passion and fire in you. I like that! But you must learn how to control that better so that your friends will trust you more."

He shrugs and then leans back, "I've my own vices and areas of passion and lack of self control so I do understand you but..I would want someone to warn me if I was putting others on edge. Usually.. Hmm...going to join Raksi might teach you great things about sorcery though. I'm sure that is a tempting thought but I imagine she'd want something in return if you were to want her as a mentor. Would you be wlling to pay that sort of price?"

Rishi Rishi headtilts, thinking, before shaking her head. "No, I am not thinking that I can be doing the things that I am hearing she is asking. Even if the stories are being the overblown... No, regardless of what the Fae is saying, I am not a Monster and nor do I care to be one." She looks down at herself. "Even if I am liking the Aesthetic."
	 Rishi stands and goes to give Fudou a hug. "I do appreciate that you are trying to do the looking out for me and giving me the warning that I may be needing to be doing the searching of my soul a bit more. But... I need to be who I am with these people. I am needing to be free and unguarded." She thinks "When I was being Chosen, I was given the body I most desired. My wings were being returned to me. I used them to fly long and far, always staying ahead of my troubles, never letting myself get attached, because..." 

	 "But here... These people, they are accepting of me. And for them to be accepting of me, I must *be* who I am being. And, if they are ever stopping accepting me...." She gives a heartbreakingly sad smile. "....I am still having my wings, I am supposing."
Fudou the Mountain The goliath accepts the hug and then reaches up and lays a hand ontop of Rishi's head, still grinning.

"Listen, I believe they do accept you but..you simply want to be careful. I have been told that all relationships have abit of give and take. What will you give and what will you take? I think that means that we just need to be careful of the needs of others but...and this part is important...you cannot forget that several of your companions are also Solars who are of a different kind of celestial exalted, yes? This is what we have been told by those of greater years then us and..this is what we have seen. Be guarded as well as open. We are lunars. We can do both.. "

He looks her over and then says, "Do not be sad now. Enough serious talk. Time for my new clothes! I will then probably immediately do damages to them but at least you'll have tried!"

Rishi Fudou gets another hug and there's definitely some tears in Rishi's eyes as she does it... though, by the end of the hug, given where her hands ended up... Well, if Fudou wanted to do something between removing his old pants and putting on his new ones, it seems like Rishi would be an enthusiastic participant.
	 Speaking of, Fudou's new trousers are ready. They somehow manage to be both roomy and flattering at the same time and the demon spider has managed to give them a fair amount of stretch too. They also feel very strong. Fudou probably could still rip them if he put his full strength into it, but they're likely immune to simple wear and tear, even from containing his bulging muscles.
