I derived inspiration from the Studio Ghibli Film, Grave Of The Fireflies for this poem. It is a beautiful and touching film, which I truly suggest you should watch. It is set during the Second World War, in Japan and is about how two children battle to survive.

[Jacob x Reader] During a time of great oppression, a time of invention, a time of great supremacy to the more wealthy, you learn that despite being a rich girl from Cambridge who once looked down at the poor, that even the poor need to be free. You are a well educated girl from a wealthy family of Cambridge, who had everything you wanted, whenever you wanted, just at the click of your fingers. But when your father eventually passes away, and inherits his apothecary to you, you discover that life in London isn't as simple as it seems. Especially not when a gang called the Blighters threaten your business. When you meet the Frye twins, things may seem to look up, but only for a short while as you get drawn into the fight against oppression, and against the most powerful man of London, Crawford Starrick. - Based upon the missions and events of Assassin's Creed Syndicate.

this is a story after Sophie's early death. Howl has turned back to his old ways, dying his hair blonde and becoming a womanizer after Sophie's passing months earlier. Mary, a twenty one year old seeking for adventure, accidently runs into the wizard. After a terrifying encounter with one of Howl's spells, her age is decreased to just a newborn. Howl must gather his information on raising a child, but also a girl that was very dear to his heart, almost as close then Sophie was. Will he be able to get Mary back to her twenty one year old self, or will he have to raise her, knowing the age difference will keep them apart?
