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 could handle it! He could handle anything Mikazuki threw at him! At least he wanted to believe he could anyway. ]

Fine... but that goes for you as well.

... Of course.

[If you ever get difficult to understand, baby sword, he will ask you questions. If.

.... You're pretty easy to understand, sorry, Kane.]

[ He could be difficult to understand! And Mysterious too! Just you wait, Jiji!!

He let out a soft groan and within seconds he flops down completely on the floor beside Mikazuki, like all this conversation had wiped him out or something.

That's such a load off....

Ah well, if it helped, I am glad, hahahahahaha!

[Even if he had to write porn for you to finally confess your worries. But hey, whatever works, right?

Mikazuki almost asks if Kane-san wants to try again, but then, remembering the younger swords earlier poems... no, no, he doesn't want to subject his brain to more of that today, thank you. And also...]


Were you not ont he roster for field duty today?

[personal profile] morewarriorlike 2019-10-28 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
I was, but with how much it had been raining, I was told my duty would be postponed until the weather got less... well rainy.
tsukijiji: (hahaha)

[personal profile] tsukijiji 2019-10-29 12:37 pm (UTC)(link)
And you have nothing else to occupy yourself? Hasn't Master found something else for you to do?

[So you will stop making his ears bleed, maybe?]

Haah? It almost sounds as if you aren't enjoying my company, Mikazuki.
tsukijiji: (laugh)

[personal profile] tsukijiji 2019-10-29 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Not at all, not at all! Your company is fine. I juts think I probably shouldn't have asked you to write poetry with me, hahahahahaha!

[He'll definitely remember not to do that next time.]

[personal profile] morewarriorlike 2019-10-29 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Why? Because I was just a tad bit embarrassed for a moment? Surely I can handle your poetry better now that I know what to expect!

[ Mikuazuki's true reason flies right over his head. ]
tsukijiji: (tea)

[personal profile] tsukijiji 2019-11-01 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I am sure you can. I am just not sure I can handle yours, hahahahahahaha!

[Please spare his ears and brain.]

Let me make some fresh tea. It must be cold by now.

Ah... a wonderful idea. If we are to stay here any longer we might as well have some warm tea.
tsukijiji: (Default)

[personal profile] tsukijiji 2019-11-02 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh.... so you are staying. Wonderful. Let's just not talk of poetry again.

Mikazuki will freshen the pot of tea, and also get out some snacks. Imokempi.]


So. Am I still such a mystery to you.
