Title: Past and Present Rating: G Word Count: 143 Pairing: Crane/Rosethorn Round/Fight: 1/F Summary: Future!fic. Many years later, Crane and Rosethorn are different, but in some ways they are the same.
The teacup steams between her fingers. Rosethorn raises it slowly, noting with humor that though everything else has changed, this celestial blue teacup is still pristine and perfect.
They aren't, any longer. Rosethorn's hair is streaked with gray; Crane dyes his, but he cannot hide the wrinkles on his face.
"To think," Rosethorn muses, "you chased the future First Dedicate of Winding Circle out of your greenhouse."
"To think," Crane sniffs, "the future First Dedicate stole a shakkan."
Rosethorn has to grin. "At least now, you'll have an excuse for why he could break in."
Crane sips his tea with dignity and doesn't deign to reply. "To think," he begins a new verbal play, "you threatened to hang the future Duchess of Emelan in your well."
"Really?" Rosethorn wonders. "I must find an excuse to say it again. To my new students, perhaps?"

I love it! They're so cute, and this shows their characters well. I love the last line. It's so Rosethorn.
