Written because hitsuzen really is a perfect word.
"Yuuko, what's a word for an inextricable event, something that one can't stop happening?" Clow waved his hand absently around as if he were trying to conjure the word into existence.
"Aren't you the one who has studied many languages?" asked the dark haired lady in question, who was sprawled languorously on a chair near him; smoke spilling from her mouth as she drew the long pipe away from her lips.
"You were talking about a word the other day. Kairos wasn't it? Is that what you're looking for?"
The man shook his head, ponytail slipping from his shoulder to hang down his back. "No, that's not it. Something in your language, I believe."
Yuuko scowled momentarily before breathing out another plume of smoke. "Hitsuzen?" She paused as he continued to look at her, waiting.
"It's the perfect word to describe you Clow; an event that is completely unstoppable and will occur no matter what steps in its path."
"Yes," he smiled, ignoring her jibe at him, and turned to continue his writing. "Exactly the word I was looking for. Something that changes you inextricably as it occurs."
He glanced at her again, another smile on his lips. "A fine description for someone like you as well."
Yuuko gave a snort as Clow laughed at her reaction. A small pause followed their slightly strained joking.
"We are both hitsuzen after all," Yuuko said.
A thin tendril of smoke lifted from her lips, coiling slowly before dissolving into the air as silence settled between them once again.
