"But wasn't it also you who said I do not live by codes set by others. That I am different?"
In a strange twist of all fate it seemed Haruka was genuine with him the whole time. She didn't in fact view him a monster or a foe, but she still seemed cautious always. She sighed a bit sadly.
"I cannot say that someone who isn't willing to take steps that I would take is a friend, but instead a manipulative soul."

"You ARE different. But does that make anyone who disagrees with you a manipulative soul? You know my heart. I have been honest with you always. I have shared with you my reasons for seeking you out, even how to kill me; but if I choose to not walk your path then we cannot be friends?"

Haruka refrained from channeling her inner dragon and instead thought on the brief teachings of the sparrow.
"If two men walk along a path and see a divide, if they do not think alike they will fight and bicker whether one is right and the other wrong. Anything that falls between friends with a divide in spirit will divide them forever.
Such friendships only last as long as the first divide in the road, don't you see?"

Sprinkles face show true sadness and sympathy. "Then you, My Lady, must be even lonelier than me. It is no wonder we get along so well here in your dreams. The real world is so full of mistrust, betrayal, sadness, and cruelty. It must be a small blessing to escape to a dream and find someone who you can indulge your hopes and desired without recourse? My promise of immortality must have seemed like a children's tale of fantasy. And now that we can sit and be honest and serious and let the fantasy die, the reality is we'll never have more than the dream will we?"

Haruka's gaze seemed to soften as she even let herself smile a bit. "Well, lonely I would not say. Just because we can't always agree does not mean that people in this life can't still work together."
She still seemed to be consider immortality rather heavily as she continued to meditate on the matter. "Immortality wasn't even a thing of fantasy for me. While I knew it existed, such dreams were beyond my grasp to ever hope to aspire to. If I did well in war and died the noble death, I thought that would be good enough. Then I could only hope that I was worthy enough to pass on through the cycle." Haruka was somber but controlled when talking about death. Even with child she never once shied away until there was no point in her continuing. The thought of returning to the battlefield was never far away.

"I truly hope we do not find ourselves as enemies in this life."
Sprinkles leaned in kissed her. It was a deep and passionate kiss. A farewell kiss. He pulled back only slightly and whispered softly, "Goodbye My Lady." And with that faded from the dream.
