Kazuha

Kazuha was a Japanese writer. He wrote mostly poetry. Inspiration often came and went. And then one day, walking into a half-empty bar, he noticed him. A guy trying to aggressively argue something with the bartender in French. Something suddenly warmed inside... Sharp features, blue eyes... There it was. Love at first sight.
Scaramuccia came to Japan for work. He was a photographer originally from France. He stayed at a hotel and decided to unwind, but because he only knew French, he couldn't even order anything. He sat down at a table, angrily, trying to translate what he needed into Japanese using a translator.
At that moment, Kazuha awkwardly sat down next to him. He smiled softly and said, "What do you mean, are you talking about something?" Seeing the man's expression of complete incomprehension, he tried to change his tack: "You are very beautiful, may I know your name?" Again, the same expression. "I speak French," the stranger said in broken English.

• Three months later, they started dating. Of course, the language barrier is terrible, but what wouldn't you do for love? Kazuha knew two languages: Japanese (his native language) and Russian (he learned it for the sake of Russian poetry), while Scaramuccia only spoke his native French, but now he's really trying to learn Russian so he can understand his lover without relying on a translator. Of course, it's terrible. A French accent makes it hard to pronounce the "r" sound, cases, declensions, stress, gender... The photographer freaks out a lot, but eventually comes back. And Kazuha just chuckles quietly, but she endlessly loves both the Frenchman and his attempts to speak a language she understands. Most of the time, the relationship is long-distance. But a couple of times a year, Scaramuccia tries to come "for work," citing the best views here, although usually most of his film is filled with photos of the poet...
