[By the time the letter reaches her, Maya has decided to work at the ruins; it's Flicker who receives the letter and takes it the rest of the way, after Shiyon explains to Yahiko what Maya is up to.

Maya's glad to receive the response, grins about it as she reads by the light of her pokemon, and writes back eagerly.

Flicker flies her letter back to Fuyuhiko, giving the proper exchange of responsibility back to Yahiko (but making sure to catch a nap before she heads home.)]



First and foremost, I am too young and cute to be a grandma. Secondly, letters are great. Even my cousin loves letters, you butt.

Anyway, I figured it would be a pain. Sorry it's not fun, but I'm glad to hear you're okay.

Actually, if your sister wants to write me, I'm studying at the Coastal Ruins for a while and training some of my pokemon. I won't be gone more than a few weeks, so don't worry. I'll probably be home by the time you are! And I miss her too, so I'll write back.

Don't let those grumps keep you down. Pretty sure you're enough of a sourpup for them all, anyway.

Miss you.

Maya

Which cousin? If she's the one I'm thinking of then you're wrong. What she really loves are love letters. Those are two totally different things, Obaachan.

[Aren't they? Fuyuhiko pauses in his writing, and a little blot of ink lands on the page where he's hesitated. But he goes onto the next line.]

Hanging out with these assholes is never fun, but it's not all bad. I missed some of my uncles. I didn't realize how long it's been since I saw some of them. I'm even taller than a couple cousins now.

Sis'll probably forget about the letters anyhow. She's got a lot more on her plate these days. I guess even she's not a little kid anymore. Stupid of me not to notice that before, but I really wasn't home much for a while before this.

Don't worry about missing me. Like I said, I'll be back soon enough, and if you're out running around doing ghost shit it's not like you got time to actually miss me that much. What are you studying there, anyway?

Sincerely,

Fuyuhiko

P.S. As of this letter, Yahiko's swiped at least one string of beads and a couple hair ornaments out of your place. I'll give them back to you next time I see you, after I pluck the dumb bastard.

[Are they love letters?

That's not something Maya wants to answer, it seems, because she ignores the question in her response in favour of decorating the top of her lavender coloured stationary with a gradiose--]

Dear Young Whippersnapper Puppy

[--Before continuing.]

Amazing!! You must be so happy with your newfound height. Your cousins are probably exchanging bet money over it.

I guess she isn't anymore, huh? I'll have to track her down some time and see if she's gotten taller than me.
Even if she's not a little kid, I bet she's still going strong getting people to do what she wants.

Also, you might be surprised, mr. big bad, but normal people don't need a lot of time to miss someone. I'm trying to learn more about the ghosts at the ruins and maybe get better at communicating, and helping some of my less experienced buddies catch up to Shiyon and the rest. Also, probably looking for Natu soon. I've seen one around, it's super cute!! Like a little green rice puff.

Make sure Yahiko doesn't get caught by Shiyon this time, or she'll give him a HUUUUGE talking to.

Is it harder to read with one eye, by the way? Don't strain yourself or you'll look like you're frowning more than usual.

[Oh yeah? TWO CAN PLAY AT THIS GAME, MAYA. In his fanciest, most careful calligraphy:]

O Venerable Wisewoman of Ninetails Vale,

Of course my cousins had a pool going, who do you think we are? But the idiots let one of the younger ones keep the books so I shook him down to find out who bet against me. It won't be happening again.

She was a little taller than me before I evolved. She's definitely taller than you now, Grandma.

A rice puff? Sounds like a Fairy type to me. That's disgusting, Maya, you don't need any fucking more of those.

Aah, so it was Shiyon. I was wondering why he looked so damn shifty after the last letter. As a side note, all the little knickknacks he picked up seem to have up and mysteriously disappeared. They're probably on your dresser, he's not good at putting shit back where it belongs.

And I dunno. It's a little more tiring, I guess, though that might just be from looking around in general. I thought my depth perception was going to be a whole lot worse but it's the lack of peripheral that's really fucking with me, especially when there's always so many damn people lurking around here. Do me a favor and remind me never to hire more than, like, one bodyguard when I get out of here.

By the way, I lost track of time a bit, but I'm pretty damn sure Banchou's egg is just about to hatch. Will you be back soon?

Sincerely,

Fuyuhiko

[You wanna go there??? Fine. Maya puts on the Kind Teacher Handwriting.]

A letter for the smallest cub of the clan Kuzuryuu, and to those who may read for him,

Wow writing like that is actually a pain, nevermind. Also, wow, poor guy probably made some good money off that. Too bad.

Natu's a psychic type bird, you know. It's actually pretty cute, and don't worry. I know your fairy allergies are insufferable.

Poooooor Yahiko. I'll make sure to check on that next time I'm back, but I'm actually still gone for a few weeks. We've got a lot of work to do. I never realised how much work it is to train all these pokémon at once. I can't believe I'm gonna miss Banchou's egg hatching! Call me up when it happens so I can see.

I'd say you could just let one bodyguard walk on your blind side, but I'm guessing you'd still be too fidgety about that, too. Which means next time we meet up, I'm just gonna make tons of faces beside you where you can't see. I mean, if I was a bodyguard? That's the first thing I'd try out. But I'll make sure you remember, don't worry.

Anyway, training here's going pretty well, but I'll probably come back after we find Natu. It's kinda cold and I miss the manor.

I'll let you know when we finish up, okay?

[This time it looks like she's scribbled before writing her ending, as though looking for a good closing. Sincerely's not her style.]

See you then,

Maya
