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.
Muramasa is rather diligent with a given chore, once he puts his mind to it.
Between those two questions, Tonbokiri also thinks that the answer is plain, so he makes no comment.
His posture shifts slightly and he smiles into the fist propped on his chin when Muramasa says that he is interested in seeing how the bond develops. It's... somehow reassuring to know Muramasa wants him around that long to find out.
He then sits up straighter, and allows Muramasa to see his smile in reply.
"That is very true. The longer we experience being in human form, the more we are likely to find as well."
Hey, it’s not like Tonbokiri will leave him alone and unsupervised…!
“Huhu, and we’ll have quite a long time to figure that out.” He leans back against the horse, treating it like a backrest for the moment, but despite having been brushed down it’s taking none of his shit. It quickly moves away, swatting at him with its tail as it does so. Sengo can only stumble for a moment and laugh.
“Well, we’ll get along better than the horses do, anyway.”

Of course, he can't help but chuckle and sigh at the antics between Muramasa and the horse.
"I should hope we will. So long as you don't try to use me as a backrest either."
And he should hope they will have a long time to figure it out, too.
