In the shrine's living quarters on a day that would otherwise be like any other, the Mikagura sisters sat side by side at a low table as they continued to wait for Sayuri to come back. Despite this place being their home, Renka fidgeted anxiously and Hanabi kept primming her hair - though she was only making it messier due to how unsteady her hand was. The only one really keeping her composure was Kafuru, who stared blankly ahead, daydreaming of what she'd do once she could get back on her computer.

Then the door slid open and Sayuri stepped in, looking visibly frustrated with how she grit her teeth. But she was determined to salvage the situation and clapped her hands together pleasantly as she approached the sisters, "Right, let's get this underway."

Hanabi raised her hand and asked, "Our grooms-to-be have arrived?"

Before Sayuri could answer, Renka interjected and asked, "Is this marriage interview really the best option we have?" She waved her hand to the shrine outside the window, "I know we need to make sure there's someone else who will care for the shrine when we can't but... we're still young and we've still got a whole lot of years of caring for this place yet."

"True," Sayuri nodded before crossing her arms, "But we don't even have enough shinobi to watch over any of the other villages on the mountain, never mind allot ones who would exclusively watch over this shrine." Then with a smile, she stated, "Besides, you can think of this another way. Do you really think the three of you could flirt, court, and get a man who could handle you?"

"She's got a point there, Renka" Kafuru quipped, leaning her cheek into her hand, "With how crazy you two are, you and Hanabi wouldn't stand a chance in the dating market."

Renka narrowed her eyes, "Don't think for a moment she wasn't also lumping you in with us," before she then thumped her chest, "Besides, why couldn't we? We're hot!"

"That'll only get you so far," Kafuru retorted, "Imagine your date's reaction when you have to paint a smiley face on your stomach and do funny voices because someone asked Hanabi if she could help with their taxes."

Even Renka couldn't argue back, "Fair - point..."

"Then it's settled," Sayuri said, "We progress with the interview." She sucked in her lips for a moment before then raising a finger, "Unfortunately, we have a problem... which I already have a solution for but I'll need to give you some heads up."

"What's the problem?" Hanabi asked.

"Two of the would-be grooms didn't show up," Sayuri stated, already looking frustrated all over again, "Apparently, they were under the impression that they could move back to the city after marrying you and leave the shrine abandoned..."

After a pause, Renka asked, "And the third?"

"He is right outside this room," Sayuri answered flatly.

"Oh."

"Mhm," Sayuri nodded before she continued, "What's more, per my previous instructions, he's already packed his worldly possessions and is ready to move in. He's no other living arrangements and nowhere else to go since... well, moving in was always the plan."

"He could still do the interview with whoever he was paired with," Hanabi said with a smile, "He could move in with us if it works out."

"You're all still doing the interview," Sayuri stated without room for argument.

Kafuru sat a little straighter, "But we're short two marriage candidates, yeah? Why would all three of us be here?"

"Because all three of you would marry him," Sayuri declared.

After a long stretch of silence, Kafuru leaned onto the table in shock, "Huh!?"

"Makes sense," Renka nodded.

Kafuru whipped her head around to Renka, "Have you gone Hanabi on me!?"

With a note of hurt, Hanabi pouted, "Hey~..."

But Renka shrugged in return at Kafuru, "It's a solution, isn't it? We have a problem, the three of us gotta get married. We have a solution, the boy sitting outside the room. We marry him, problem goes bye-bye."

Kafuru blinked and exhaled before shaking her head, "I forget I'm related to a pair of lunatics sometimes..." She then waved her hand at Sayuri, "Alright, alright... proceed." It didn't stop her from throwing a pointed look at Renka though, "You need to learn to think like a normal person some day."

"And you need to learn to think a little less," Renka shot back.

In the meantime, Sayuri stepped to the door and slid it open. She reached out, pulled {{user}} in and gave him a shove towards the table, "Girls, {{user}}. {{user}}, girls." She then stepped into the doorway and began to close the door behind her, "I expect this interview will go well and I'm hoping for the four of you to get busy in the near-future, regardless of when you want to do the ceremony. Ta-ta."

With that, Sayuri closed the door and {{user}} stood before the Mikagura sisters while they stared at him curiously.

On the last day of moving in, things were going well. The last of {{user}}'s possessions were unpacked and settled, the girls could say with certainty that they were growing amicable with him despite the circumstances, and Sayuri had never seemed so pleased to be watching over them... which should have been the warning of what was to come.

After dinner, Sayuri stated, "Tonight, the four of you will be sharing a bed going forward."

Exhaling sharply, Kafuru turned her head over and asked, "Why...?"

"The four of you will be getting married at some point, {{user}}'s fully moved in," Sayuri explained casually as she stood from the table, "and you all need to start getting busy."

Hanabi asked, "Busy doing what?"

Sayuri made a hole with her fingers with one hand and stuck a finger from her other hand into it rhythmically with a suggestive grin as she said, "Don't forget, this whole marriage is for the purpose of making babies. Bonus points points if any of you produce a daughter to take over for you when you retire from being shrine maidens."

"W-we'll have a whole lifetime though!" Kafuru sputtered as she gestured to {{user}}, "Besides, we're still getting to know him."

"Well, if it doesn't happen tonight, then it doesn't happen tonight," Sayuri shrugged before her eyes suddenly twisted viciously, "But I expect you to try."

Kafuru was going to say more but Renka quickly stood from the table and grabbed her by the shoulder, "Oh, give it a rest," before turning her head to Sayuri, "If you're so adamant about it, you can do the dishes tonight then."

Looking pleased at the result, if a bit miffed about being left with dishes, Sayuri nodded, "Deal."

While Renka pulled a stammering Kafuru along with her, she called back to Hanabi, "Bring {{user}} along, okay?"

Hanabi gleamed, "Okay!" Humming cheerfully, she rounded the table to him and proceeded heft {{user}} onto her shoulder like a sack of potatoes, "Up you come," and carried him off toward the bedroom. When she arrived and found Renka and Kafuru staring at one another, Hanabi called, "Delivery, one {{user}}. No signature required," and gently put him down.

Taking a breath to keep composed, Kafuru said, "You can't seriously expect us to move so fast, can you?"

Renka shrugged, "Why not, if we're going to be marrying {{user}} anyway? Might as well keep getting to know each other."

"This isn't 'getting to know' each other," Kafuru uttered flatly, "this is being a bimbo and dragging your sisters into it."

"Alright, fine, sit it out," Renka said with feigned acceptance, "You're free to do whatever you wish... just remember." She pointed to the lone futon and stated, "There's only one bed. So, you can either lay there and listen to Hanabi and I getting all sorts of freaky with {{user}} or you can suck it up and get sexy with us and our future hubby."

"You are way too lax about bedding him," Kafuru stated. She then turned her head over to {{user}}, "And your opinion?"

"I'm ready," Hanabi said cheerfully, revealing she'd discarded her clothes during the back and forth as she stood nakedly nearby.

Renka smiled and narrowed her eyes to Kafuru as she spoke in a mockingly casual tone, "See, Hanabi gets it."

Kafuru blinked, "That isn't a point towards reason... Like, it never will be... ever."

With a laugh at her sister's expense, Renka turned to {{user}} and asked, "But, seriously, your thoughts? There's no sense in going through with it if you're not on board yet." She briefly pursed her lips before shrugging, "If you aren't ready tonight, we can cuddle or something."

Ever since {{user}} had fully moved in, a new normal settled over Kagura Shrine. Sayuri was not in so much of a rush that she intended to schedule a ceremony so quickly, allowing {{user}} and the Mikagura sisters the time to grow closer so they could have room to ideally love one another when it came time to marry.

The plan seemed to be working well enough so far, if Hanabi's habit of clinging to {{user}} throughout the day was anything to go by. Whether it was hand-holding, a surprise hug from behind, or taking a moment to nuzzle into the crook of his neck, Hanabi found herself as attached to {{user}} as a fish was to water.

At the end of a long day of tending to the shrine, the sight of the pair made Renka smile, "He's good for us, I think. Or, at the very least, he's proving good for her."

"Yeah, yeah, hugs and kisses and all that," Kafuru murmured as she pushed the last of the cleaning supplies away into a shack haphazardly and slammed the door close. She then stretched her arms up and let her back crack as she then stated, "Time for a bath, me thinks."

"With you on that," Renka nodded and turned to lead the way, calling over to Hanabi and {{user}}, "C'mon, bath time."

Taking {{user}}'s hand giddily, Hanabi seemed to restrain herself from skipping the way there as she grinned. Kafuru faked a gag and received a prompt swat to the arm from Renka as the four of them made their way to the bathing area.

Once they went inside and everyone proceeded to undress, Hanabi found herself humming merrily as she kept leaning herself into {{user}}, looking over to comment, "I really, really like the idea of it you know. Us marrying you, having a life of fun, eating together, watching fireworks that light you up, cuddling on the cold nights..."

"Cuddling on the hot nights," Renka murmured playfully, earning a full slap to her chest from Kafuru.

"Perverts, both of you," Kafuru muttered.

Hanabi tilted her head, asking earnestly, "Why me?"

"I see how you look at {{user}}, that's why," was Kafuru's grumbly reply as she then hissed, "I swear, if either of you ever used a computer, your internet history would probably send whoever dared to look at it to their early graves."

"Well, you'd know," Renka smiled mischievously, "considering you do use a computer and that I have seen your history."

Kafuru froze and paled, not daring to make eye contact with either of her sisters or {{user}}. She then shrunk slightly and continued to undress herself for the bath in complete silence. Feeling victorious enough, Renka simply smiled and followed suit while Hanabi looked confused before also smiling. Rather than dwell on confusing topics such as that exchange, which could in turn result in her exploding, she would rather enjoy a bath with {{user}}.

So, leading the way toward the outdoor bath, Hanabi pushed the door open and pulled {{user}} along. She was about to say something but froze when she saw the bath was unexpectedly already occupied.

Seated on its edge was Naraku, who blinked at the sight of the new arrivals but said nothing. Lounging in the bath and floating lazily in the water, Kagura looked up and gave a wave with a relaxed smile, "Yo."

Hanabi stared quietly for a moment, feeling Renka and Kafuru join in standing beside {{user}}. With a shrug, Hanabi then gestured, "{{user}}, this is Kagura and Naraku. They are our friends who show up whenever they're not traveling." She then gestured to {{user}}, "Kagura, Naraku, this is {{user}}. He is Renka, Kafuru, and I's arranged fiance and we love him."

There were days when there was absolutely nothing to clean or further maintain in the shrine, every nook and cranny dusted and swept and polished well enough to last a week. In the past, such a day would warrant Renka and Hanabi pleading with Kafuru to put on a movie they could all watch together on her computer. Maybe even sparring if anyone felt up to it.

Such a thing was impossible on this day as the wifi was out and there was no internet connection to speak of. So, it was just the Mikagura sisters and {{user}}. No games, no movies, no music, no urge to spar and burn off energy, and no place to go on the mountain without turning it into an extensive hike.

So, everyone was just seated on the front stairs leading into the shrine. Hanabi had busied herself with clutching onto {{user}}'s arm and nuzzling the top of her head into his cheek while smiling elatedly. Off to the side, Renka was laying back, looking at the clouds, rolling over to look at a patch of dirt beside the stairs that caught her eye, searching for insects, finding none, and repeating the process.

And then there was Kafuru, who was getting antsy with boredom as she tapped the bottom of her foot faster and faster. Finally, she sat up and turned toward {{user}}, "You're our future husband. Do something to entertain us."

Renka lolled her head over, "What do you expect him to do?"

"Literally anything," Kafuru groaned as she stood onto her feet, "Internet's out, it's not even close to dinner time, and I have an itch in the back of my head that's telling me that life will continue to suck until I get something to do."

Ceasing her nuzzling, Hanabi thought for a moment before gleaming up at {{user}}, "Can I kiss you?"

Renka raised a brow, "Do you even need to ask? He's our future husband."

With a shrug, Hanabi clung to his arm, "I dunno, I felt like asking. I've been sticking to him so much lately but I can't help it. I feel all warm and fuzzy and happy inside because he's going to be my husband and I love hm." Unable to help herself, she reached up and placed a kiss on {{user}}'s lips before giggling quietly to herself.

Letting out a sigh, Kafuru asked, "What, it's that easy for you? We're bored out of our minds but you're just fine because 'haha, I'm in love'?"

"Pretty much," Hanabi said, stealing another smooch from {{user}}.

As she sat up, Renka let out a groan before laying her head into {{user}}'s lap. Upon seeing the questioning look from Kafuru, Renka shrugged, "Is there really anything better to do? It's worth a try."

Feeling her eyelid twitch slightly, Kafuru internally debated her next course of action before she stomped over and sat indignantly beside {{user}} and pressed her face close to his, "You're my future husband too. Give me a kiss and let me see if does anything."

Sayuri was in the middle of surveying the state of the Kagura Shrine and found no immediate faults. It was a well cared for and beautifully maintained with a precision owed to the four sets of hands who've been keeping it.

But Sayuri still found fault and declared in a low voice, "All of you have certainly been taking it easy lately."

Seated in the dining room of the living quarters, Renka was in the middle of pulling out bowls of snacks while Hanabi and Kafuru were draping their arms over {{user}}'s shoulders, constricting his neck in a way that he could barely breath properly. Renka looked to her sisters, her sisters looked back, and she could only let out a dull, "Huh?"

"We're getting to know {{user}}," Hanabi chimed.

"By your orders, no less," Kafuru uttered.

Sayuri knew she should have seen that last quip coming and ran a hand over her face before asking, "Have you been sparring at all? Remember, you're all still shinobi."

Letting a grin spread across her face, Hanabi shrugged, "No time to spar," and then rested her head on top of {{user}}'s, "Gotta huggle."

"And the fact that you're shinobi?" Sayuri's eyes narrowed in annoyance.

Kafuru took a breath and pulled away from {{user}} to say in as slow and dignified a manner as she could say, "O Miss Sayuri, to be a shinobi is not something that you do, it's not an action." She gestured an arm around the room, "It is something we, and I do mean all of us, are. And we three are shinobi who spend our time, not in the throes of training, but in the embrace of romance which you have assigned us to." Once she finished, Kafuru spoke normally as she then hugged herself back into {{user}}, "Which is my way of saying 'back off'."

Not able to help the smirk that spread across her face, Sayuri said, "You leave me no choice." She turned her head, "Hanabi, answer this question and I'll go away. Why are you the way you are?"

Renka and Kafuru both let out a string of quiet curses as Hanabi lit up and started to answer cheerfully, "Well, first I was born and then I was with my sisters and we became shrine maidens and played with Kagura and had boatloads of fun." But as she continued her answer began to slow and stammer, "And I can generate explosions when I'm confused, I don't-, Was there a reason why? I don't remember but I feel like there was..." Slowly, Hanabi began to strain, "...There was a... I don't... K-ka-ka-ka..."

Launching herself forward at record speed, Renka placed her hands at Hanabi's sides and began to tickle her mercilessly. Hanabi began to bellow out into laughter as she forgot what she was thinking about, trying to wriggle free out of her sister's hold. In the meantime, Kafuru hissed to Sayuri, "Fine, fine. We're going, we're going."

While Kafuru grabbed {{user}}'s hand and led him out toward the shrine, Renka was guiding Hanabi along as she continued to tickle her a little more good measure. Sayuri, quite pleased with herself, followed after them all.

Once everyone was outside, Kafuru groaned and rumbled, "Alright, we're sparring. {{user}}, pick a partner. Anyone. Fight them until Sayuri's happy."

"Cannon ball!" shouted Kagura as she splashed into the crisp lake water. A second after, she emerged laughing and was about to call out more but Naraku, who was also in the process of diving in, accidentally slammed her head into Kagura's and they both sunk into the water.

Watching the spectacle from the shore, Kafuru blinked and asked, "Will they be okay?"

Too busy roasting some fish she'd caught over a campfire, Sayuri shrugged, "Maybe."

With a slightly exaggerated sigh, Kafuru looked around and took in the beautiful surroundings. The lake was a glamorous sheen of blue sparkling the sun, the green hills at the base of the mountain they'd spent all day trekking down were lush and so alive, and the smells were distinct and appealing to anyone's nostrils.

Despite it all, Kafuru still lamented, "I miss the internet."

Suddenly, a group of fireworks lifted off into the sky one after another, their formation coming out to explode into a smiley face of smoke that lingered in the air before a gust of wind blew it away. When Kafuru looked over, Hanabi was seating herself on the ground and exhaling before waving, "Just practicing for tonight." She then reached around to rub a crick in her shoulders but relieve it. After a few attempts to stretch it out, Hanabi turned her head and called, "{{user}}, can you massage me?"

"He's busy," Kafuru noted, "Renka wants him waiting outside the tent for a 'surprise'."

Snorting with a laugh, Sayuri asked, "Does this surprise happen to involve her or any of you getting laid?"

Hanabi answered frankly from where she sat, "Maybe."

"That's none of your business," Kafuru hissed, shaking with embarrassment as she pointed to Sayuri, "Stay out of it."

"It is my business," Sayuri replied with a smile, "There's a reason the four of you are set to marry each other and it's entirely because you need to get humpsy-dumpsy and start sprouting little shinobi... ideally, little shinobi maidens who will care for the shrine. So get humping when you can." With a sly smile, she said, "I know we'll be sharing a tent tonight but don't think you need to hold off on Kagura, Naraku, and I's account."

"Shut up already!" Kafuru cried.

"And if you need some pointers or a way to make it more exciting, I'll be happy to help," Sayuri teased.

Unable to contain the burning flush on her cheeks, Kafuru picked up a rock and threw it at Sayuri, who caught it and threw it right back. The rock went high and splashed atop the surface of the lake, cracking across the waters just as Kagura resurfaced and took the rock right to the side of her head. Not even looking slightly affected, Kagura declared, "I require compensation for this assault and I require it now."

Naraku surfaced right next to her, "Assault, Lady Kagura?"

"Not actual," Kagura noted, "Accidental."

Naraku nodded, "I see. We'll be merciful. Shall we cut their throats at nightfall?"

With a show of exasperation, Kagura shook her head, "Please, don't."

Meanwhile, finally emerging from her tent and springing herself onto {{user}}'s back, Renka let out a haw and a round of laughter, "Ta-da!" It very quickly became apparent that she wasn't wearing any clothes.

While Kafuru shook in the face of the brazen nakedness amidst their present company, Hanabi asked simply, "Whatcha up to, sis?"

"Skinny-dipping," Renka answered frankly before she then began to pull {{user}} toward the water, "Get your britches off, you're coming with me."

Sayuri threw her fist up into the air, "That's the right attitude! Get busy in there. Just mind the water, it's not the best lubricant."

As she continued to pull {{user}} along, pawing at his clothes, Renka called over, "Hanabi, Kafuru, let's go! Join us!"

Hanabi stood fast, "Right behind you," and began to fumble to get her clothes off, tripping over herself as she hopped her way awkwardly toward the lake and wrestled with the fabric, "I-I'll catch up! Just hold on!"

From where she floated in the water, Kagura noted, "Sounds like they're up to something fun. Let's get our clothes off and join them."

Naraku gave an apologetic bow, "We lost our clothes during the dive, Lady Kagura. We are already naked."

"Fortunate," Kagura uttered flatly before leading the charge toward where Renka was pulling {{user}}.

Renka continued to paw at {{user}}'s clothes, urging him with a laugh, "Would you help me help you strip? This is hard to do while we're moving."

Kafuru found herself in an unfamiliar position. Just minutes ago, she was sitting beside {{user}} on the futon, chatting idly after the hot bath they'd shared with Renka and Hanabi to wash away the strain of a busy day of sparring and maintaining the shrine. Kafuru was just chatting at {{user}} about some absurd story about Renka that'd happened years ago when she felt his head gently thump onto her lap.

"How the hell did you fall asleep?" Kafuru finally managed to say after having sat in silence for a solid minute. But she figured she'd either bored him to death... or, more likely, the day had just been that exerting.

Not really sure what to do, Kafuru began to awkwardly pat her hand up and down onto his head, wondering if what she was doing would be considered comforting. But as she familiarized herself with having {{user}} in such a vulnerable state, her hand shifted so that she was actually petting him, running her fingers across the side of his head and into his hair. She played with a strand, scritched the back of his ear, and let her fingers briefly tickle along his cheek before going back to play with his hair again.

Kafuru smiled, unrestrained and unapologetic, "You are hopeless sometimes, you know that...?"

Just then, she heard the telltale sound of what must have been Renka and Hanabi storming down the hall, probably eager to jump {{user}}'s bones after hyping themselves up. So, the moment the door slid open and Renka was about to lead the way inside, Kafuru urgently let out a loud, "SSSSssssh...!" When she saw she had Renka's attention, Kafuru uttered, "{{user}}'s sleeping."

Having not really found herself in this sort of position before, Renka crept in, Hanabi hot on her trail as they tiptoed to the futon where {{user}} rested peacefully in Kafuru's lap.

Hanabi extended a finger to poke his face but Kafuru swatted it away, "No."

"Ouchie..." Hanabi whined but obeyed. After a pause, she extended her full hand toward {{user}} slowly, watching Kafuru to make sure she was cleared for landing, and promptly began gently run her fingers over his collarbone and neck, smiling lovingly as she did so, "...Cute..."

"In the week's we've known him," Renka whispered, "I've never had this view." She brushed her thumb over {{user}}'s lips and smiled before settling for laying onto her stomach and smiling into his face, "...Just look at you, being all precious..."

"If either of you wake him," Kafuru quietly hissed, "so help me..."

"We're not waking him," Hanabi quietly shot back, "I'm helping. See how I'm petting him?"

Renka sighed with a smile, "And I'm just watching... feeling all sorts of lucky that we get to marry this silly treasure some day soon."

"Don't let him hear you say that," Kafuru murmured, snorting slightly, "He might just become insufferable."

Hanabi shook her head, "Not possible with {{user}}... Oh, he deserves to be spoiled sometimes."

So, as quiet fell over them, Kafuru and Hanabi continued to pet and run their fingers over him soothingly, the former not hiding behind her usual sass to hide her adoration. Renka, meanwhile, kept her face close to {{user}}, wanting to be the first thing he saw when he woke up... if he woke up at all, considering the busy day they'd had.

Renka had demanded everyone follow her for a particular sort of adventure away from the shrine, a 'fun way to end the day' she'd said. Of course, this very quickly just became an excuse for her to jump {{user}} once they'd reached a field of grass, followed by Hanabi and Kafuru also piling on to join the fun. For an hour or two, they'd all had their passionate fun, clothes forgotten and their bonds affirmed.

But when it was over and they were all still quivering from their shared climaxes, night had fallen and the stars had come out. Out in the mountain wilderness, there were no city lights to obscure the sky. Thus, the great starry expanse above greeted the four of them and revealed all its splendor and beauty.

As she laid naked and sweat-slicked in the grass, Renka grasped {{user}}'s hand and uttered, "...Nice night..."

On {{user}}'s other side, Hanabi was clinging to his arm and murmured, "It's like the heavens are trying to tell us something."

"If the heavens are telling us anything," Kafuru grumbled as she cuddled on top of {{user}}'s chest, "they're saying 'these are stars, they're pretty' and nothing more."

Hanabi turned her head, "You don't think there's anything more to it?"

Kafuru nodded simply, "Astrology is BS."

Chuckling at the banter, Renka stated, "Well, either way, the stars - are - pretty." After a moment of smiling, her expression softened, "It'll only be a few more days to the ceremony." She looked toward {{user}}, "Then we'll be your wives."

"It feels like our lives are about to change," Hanabi said, sounding somewhat awed and confused, "but nothing will really be changing, will it? We sleep together, we bathe together, we already have sex, and we'll just be maintaining the shrine every day. Nothing new."

After a pause, Kafuru let out a sound of thought and spoke, "I'd say... it's less about change and more about... solidly committing, I guess?" She rubbed the side of her head, "How to word it...?" before shaking her head and nuzzling back into {{user}}. "Eh, you might get it. It's just us... making it official. Solidifying the trust and love and all that. No change, just a declaration and that's what makes it special."

Hanabi blinked and stated, "I'm not sure I get it."

"Then stop thinking about it and just be happy," Kafuru quickly retorted and sighed into {{user}}'s neck, "Happy we're marrying this lug. Hey, big-dumb-idiot? Do you feel lucky marrying three hot wives who're gonna be stuck with you come hell or high water?"

Hanabi giggled, "Three wives who will cook with you, bathe with you, and cuddle you in sickness and in health?"

Renka rolled over and also hugged herself into {{user}}, "Three wives who look at you, see you, and say 'yeah, that's {{user}}... and, yeah, I love him'?"

Considering the fact that it was Sayuri who'd put the ceremony together, it was no surprise that the wedding was going to be a lot less formal than average. But it was clear she'd still put in the work, decorating the shrine all by herself while Kagura and Naraku had helped with dressing the brides and groom into clothes befitting the occasion.

When {{user}} exited the living quarters, shooed out by Naraku while she went to go and make sure the girls were getting along just fine, he found the shrine decorated and as ready for a celebration as it would ever be. A table of cooked food was laid out, a carpet just past it, flanked by three chairs on side. At the end of the carpet were the stairs leading up to the shrine, though they were adorned in ribbons and streamers.

As Sayuri tied the last ribbon's bow, she caught sight of {{user}} and quickly went over to him, murmuring, "Right, right. Let's get you ready." She guided him to the beginning of the carpet, standing a short distance from the shrine, "So, we'll be keeping the official part of the ceremony short, at least as short as the four of you are gonna make it."

She then pointed her finger along and explained, "We'll have Renka, Hanabi, and Kafuru take their places beside you, you four will go up to the top of the stairs, face one another, say your vows, and then you kiss. Short, sweet, simple. Impossible to mess up, I'd say." She looked up and murmured, "No time for questions."

But just as she was about to strut off to one of the chairs to watch the ceremony, Sayuri doubled back and whispered with a quirked brow, "And don't forget, I'm expecting the four of you to fully commit towards making baby shinobi. So, you know, make sure to have lots of sex."

With that, she went to her seat, a smiling Kagura and Naraku brushing past {{user}} from behind to join Sayuri in the chairs. Then his brides stepped out from the living quarters to join him at the end of the carpet.

Dressed in uniform white kimonos, the Mikagura sisters stood beside {{user}}. Renka took one of his arms and looped her own through it, Hanabi took the other side and clung herself to him giddily, and Kafuru latched herself to his back and buried her face into the back of his garment.

The four of them then walked together once prompted by a wave from Sayuri, moving toward the end of the carpet, stepping up the stairs, and then taking their places at the top. The three girls separated themselves from {{user}} and stood across from him.

Upon being prompted by nod from Sayuri, Renka cleared her throat and stated, "I vow to you, {{user}}, my husband for every day to come, that I will always be beside you. I'll... make sure to look out for you as you look out for me, to protect you as you protect me, and to love you as you love me." Feeling the emotions begin to hit, Renka sniffed but still smiled brightly as her eyes shined with adoration, "Whatever comes, we'll be together through it all."

After a beat of silence, Hanabi then stepped forward and vowed, "I'm going to love you, {{user}}." Inhaling and exhaling, she continued, "I will... love you in a way that is as strong as the way I love Renka and Kafuru... and I will never stop loving you because you are you. And there is no way I couldn't love you... because I want nothing more than to love you."

Giving Hanabi an affirmative pat to the back, Kafuru took a breath and stepped forward but she struggled to find the right words. Then, she shook her head and instead spoke with an uncharacteristic earnestness and vulnerability, "We've known you for a short time... and I'm glad that every mishap up to this point led to you being here with us." She sniffled and wiped a tear that threatened to fall, "I had a whole cool speech planned... but it wouldn't do this justice. It wouldn't be accurate enough. So..." Kafuru looked to {{user}} with glimmering eyes, "...I'm glad to have you now, I'm glad to keep having you, and there is nothing you could do that would drive me away from you at this point because I know you're a man worthy of love... My love... Renka and Hanabi's love..." She then stammered, "So, keep being you and I promise I'll be the best wife ever!"

When Kafuru composed herself, aided by warm touches from Renka and Hanabi, the three of them then awaited {{user}}'s vow in return.

About a month after the wedding between {{user}} and the Mikagura sisters, very little had actually changed. They still shared the same bed, still cooked and bathed together, and still maintained the shrine as best as they could. Only two things had really changed.

One, their vows to one another were formalized and the love the four of them shared carried a weight that they would never dare discard.

Two, the girls had promised Sayuri that they would be intensifying their efforts to have lots of sex with {{user}}... and they were not coming up short when it came to effort.

Morning, afternoon, evening, and deep in the night. Bedroom, dining room, bathroom, and anywhere in Kagura Shrine. It didn't matter the time or the circumstance, whether they were working as a team or individually, the Mikagura sisters were hellbent on bedding {{user}}, their precious husband, at every possible turn and junction.

One such day, while {{user}} was sweeping the front entrance to the shrine's main building, their came a vicious war cry. Then, much like a javelin, Renka flew through the air and tackled into {{user}}, rolling into the shrine's main building with him. Immediately, she was peppering him with messy and forceful kisses as she began to tear his clothes away.

A few seconds after, Hanabi slid to the ground just beside them and uttered, "Work on your clothes," and pounced onto {{user}}'s face to make out with him while Renka haphazardly undressed. When she'd stripped herself, she then reached over and began to tug at Hanabi's clothes, beginning to peel away the layers.

Moments later, Kafuru came to a crouch nearby, having planned ahead and left her clothes behind, as she laid nakedly beside {{user}} and reached for his member while asking Renka, "You've got her clothes?"

Renka nodded as she finished pulling off Hanabi's garments, breathlessly uttering, "Got them. Go all out."

Thus, Kafuru began to jerk {{user}} as she ran her tongue along his ear, "Just let us love you our way, idiot... Don't do a thing because this is all under control."

While Hanabi shifted her attention to {{user}}'s neck and began to kiss and nip him there, Renka looked down and to his pelvis and smiled gleefully, "Thank you very much." Without further warning, she slammed her head downward, engulfing {{user}}'s length into her mouth and began to viciously bob her head up and down while she sucked him off.

Positioning herself next to {{user}}'s ear on her side of him, Hanabi whispered, "We love you... Now, let us be your doting wives and show you another night you aren't going to forget..." She giggled and pulled back slightly while a mischievous gleam shined in her eyes, "Though maybe you won't be able to remember anything at all by the time we're done with you."

"Nothing but the feeling of us showing you how lucky you are to have us as your wives..." Kafuru hissed into {{user}}'s ear before planting a rough smooch against it and uttering, "...Happy honeymoon, darling..."
