6 ❀ Summer Citadel


  1. Beach. Everyone has been working so hard lately so why not take a break and enjoy the beach? You can make sand castles, play in the water, and there are even umbrellas for those who'd rather just relax in the shade. There's a nice row of water melons ready to be smashed later in the day and when the sun goes down, that's when the sparklers come out.
  2. Suffering. It's the hottest time of the year and the citadel doesn't have central air conditioning. The few air conditions that were installed have given up on life after being used so much and now, we really have to make do with what we can while the Konnosuke try to fix it. There's a limited number of fans, plenty of ice cream to go around, and the citadel should be built to circulate air, right? ... Right?!
  3. Spooks. In Japan, summer is a time for horror. Gather around the camp fire and hear some spooky ghost stories or maybe head out into the woods just outside the citadel for a good ol' fashioned test of courage. It's all good, harmless fun! Of course, with so many spirits gathered in one place, what's to say a stray or curious outsider spirit won't join the mix...
  4. Rain. Summer is also known for sudden and torrential downpours of rain. The clouds always seem to grown and darken suddenly and the next thing you know, it's raining sheets and the ground is shaking from thunder. Once it starts, it never seems to stop. Maybe you were caught out in the rain or maybe this is day 7 stuck inside.
  5. Other! It's summer and there are tons of things to do. Go to the general store and stock up on ice cream, wake up in the middle of the night uncomfortable with heat, or run around screaming because cicadas are dying and flying at your face.

[ He clicks his tongue and quickly takes a few long strides just to be in front of Mutsunokami. But not before bumping into his side. So much for not taking the bait... ] The scariest thing in the area is your poor aim.

[ And with that he starts heading further in, twirling a flashlight he may or may not
Have snagged from Mutsu.

( Wow, what the heck? As soon as Mutsunokami feels Izuminokami bumping against him, he's quick to pick up his pace and ram right back into him! )

Wait your turn, wait your turn! I was here first!

( ... )

And give that back!

Give what back? This is clearly for the leader of the group to hold and that would be me.

[ He gives Mutsunokami another shove before his walking seems to speed up again. ]

Unless you think you'll be too scared without it in your hands.

Who died and made ya the captain?!

( Excuse you? He's definitely following along after Izuminokami now, though. )

I'm just fine without it! You're the one that needed it so much ya had to take it.

I only took it because everyone knows the one who holds the flash light is the one who leads the charge.

[ He might just be making that rule up, but it seemed to make sense to him..! ]

So of course the leader should be me.
