On the first night of the full moon after the wedding, a fox jumps an open windowsill and enters the Emperor's chambers.
They are greeted by the Emperor, still more youth than man for all his stoic bearing, and his new bride, who opens her arms to them with a whisper of welcome. Tamamizu makes to bow, as best they can on four feet, but the Emperor pre-empts her, and before long Tamamizu is enthroned in her Lady's lap while she and their Lord apply themselves to learning the finer points of ear-stroking.
(based on Overly Sarcastic Production's Pride Tales vid, relevant bit starts around 4:00, this is an AU where the Beautiful Noblewoman convinces Tamamizu to be in a polyamorous triad with her and the Emperor because I'm a bleeding heart like that >_>)
