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.
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?!
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...
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.
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.
[The only time his looks get scary is in battle, and even then it doesn't happen that often, only when he has to really show muscle. The rest of the time, he tends to laugh his way through it.]
You are allowed to be selfish. Humans often are, after all, so why should we not?
[ With a bit of a chuckle in his voice ] No no, of course not. Every time I see Mikazuki-san it's with a smile on your face. It's just not every day that I am spoiled with Mikazuki-san's concern and tender hands as well.
[ Although to be fair, Mikazuki could probably be the type of Jiji that does this all the time and Mitsutada just hadn't noticed because he spends so much time running around doing chores and other things. oops... ]
[ Don't you worry, Jiji, as much as he's enjoying it, he'd much rather see him living comfortably and content. Honestly his own care seemed to be the last thing on his mind when he knew he could help the others. ]
But doesn't that make things a little more exciting around here?
[ Mitsutada lets out a soft laugh of his own. ]
It makes him happy anyway, and I would do anything to keep that smile on his face. [ For Tsurumaru and any of the other Dategumi. }
Hahahahaha, that's true enough. Well, he likes your cooking.... but we are all getting spoiled with it, aren't we? maybe you'd need find something special to make just for him.
[Just a suggestion, Mitsutada.]
Isn't it more comfortable like that, without all the layers?
Excellent, excellent! Well then... off you go, back to your tasks now. if I keep you more people will come and complain that I am hogging you all to myself and will get jealous.

[There, you get another smile for that.]
That sounds like something you'd like to see happen more often, Shokudaikiri Mitsutada.
[Please spare him, he is an old man.]
You have been caring for Tsurumaru for a while, haven't you? He's a handful.

[Since he is older than all of you and Mikazuki has actually seen how he behaves around the whole of you.
But have you seen how Tsurumaru behaves in front of his Sanjou cousins, Mitsutada? It's like day and night.]

Ah... yes. Mikazuki-san is a life saver. I feel ten times cooler now.

But I suppose I should be getting back to making those snacks I wanted to.

[ he gives Mikazuki a small bow with a smile as he leaves his room. He sort of owes him anyway since he did lend out this yakata to him. ]
