[ Emily was, at all times, gorgeous and smart and beautiful and fascinating... but in moments like this, she was also exceptionally cute. Musashi could hardly help herself, letting out a giggle as she tapped her fingers, pulling her hand back and easing herself into a stretch, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. ]
Sure! I'll wait as long as you want me to! That wine'll taste just as sweet, so long as I'm sharing it with you...
[she hurries, and it's apparent - pushing papers into a pile, putting things away, still trying to keep it neat and orderly even as she's hastening to get it all done. she can't look sloppy just because of a woman, or her coworkers will comment. hopefully Musashi enjoys watching what getting her flustered will yield for results.
finally she comes back from the staff room, bag over her arm, and she nods decisively.]
Okay, I'm ready. We can leave. [pause.] Did you know where you wanted to go?
[because if not....Emily knows a good spot to avoid the world in.]
[ She feels endlessly blessed, seemingly witnessing new and fascinating ways in which Emily can be cute every time. The woman was a well, and she'd not even managed to to breach the surface. Still, she at least tried not to look too lovestruck, and at least heard Emily's question.
But... ]
H-honestly, I didn't really have, like. A plan. This time. I was so ready to just come over here and see you, I didn't think further than that.
[ She'd needed a destressor. Emily did wonders for that. ]
Sure! That sounds perfect, even! [ Musashi takes up the wine bottle, making sure to grab a pair of glasses from where they were usually stashed before falling in behind Emily, more than happy to follow like a lovesick puppy. ]
[where she's taking Musashi isn't far at all - an office building, one where the locks never work and so she can walk in with her. usually she flies up, but when she's tired enough, she just takes the doors and the elevator. it's silent, but she's hit the button for the roof, and it carries them up swiftly enough.
up top...there's not much. the ground is empty, a few blocks of vents, but the important thing is the sky is wide, wide open. overhead, if they tilt their head and look, there are stars visible even with the light the city casts. and the wind blows, fresher than on the street.]
Up here, I can usually take to my wings, and fly as high as I have the energy for. I'll never reach the stars, but I can at least see them.
[ The inauspicious walk and elevator ride up to the roof hardly prepared Musashi for just how astounding the view was actually going to be... Sure, she'd seen similar sights at some of the exclusive Tamamo clubs around town, taking advantage of the way the light pollution from the neon sea below seemed to just cut off as a certain elevation, but...
Something about the blunt simplicity of the setting made the sky that much more impossible to ignore, to behold in all its heavenly glory... ]
Wow...
[ Just... wow. She wrapped an arm about Emily's shoulders, but otherwise just... couldn't really pull her gaze away from the sky. ]
[she speaks softly, looking upwards. it's a view she cherishes, she hopes never gets blocked by something, that she can keep seeing on the most wearisome nights.
and it's nice to know someone else appreciates it as well.]
[ The stars, and perhaps most importantly... the moonlight. It cast more than enough glow around them to see Emily, to turn to her and see the heavenly curtain reflected back in those gorgeous eyes. To feel herself drawn in... ]
The moon is beautiful, isn't it?
[ The oldest, cheesiest line she knew, but it was still filled with sincerity and adoration. ]

[she thinks Musashi will appreciate it. it's nothing grand, but it gave her the little thrill of getting away with something, and the view isn't bad.]
