[Kaguya]

His father turned and looked to his son as he spoke “I wouldn't know... I've never met a Human.” his words were truthful as he leaned against the window “At your age such things where taboo... my father would have easily had me beaten for thinking such a thought” his smile was gentle as he thought on his own parents and how they where, he now found himself wondering if his father would have approved of him and what he had done, or class him as a failure

On hearing his son's next set of words he snapped back into reality from his own thoughts “We can't help what we are born Nobuo” he say with a sorrow filled voice, to hear such words from his only child cut deeper into him than any blade could, turning from him several tears fell silently from the man's cheeks, he didn't want his son to see the tears or how much that one sentence truly hurt him

“If that is what you wish I can grant it, it would also break your taboo...” his voice hid the fear he was hiding well, all he wanted was to make his son happy, to make him smile and laugh like he once had when he was a child, before the time turmoil where the humans founded a city within their territory, it was then he started to see changes in his son's attitude and though he knew they would likely never change back but he could hope

“I've only ever wanted to see your happiness and laughter Noubuo...” he began to walk towards the door silently, though stopped before he exited “And if that means I must lose you for a second time for it to happen, I would happily sacrifice it” he lowered his head, tears now moved down his cheeks as if they where waterfalls, his voice shook as his heart twisted saying that one sentence, but how could he deny him anything? it was a father's love that compelled him to offer him what he wanted
