7 ❀ Assignments
| 1. Internal Affairs Perhaps the most mundane of assignments but someone has to help keep this citadel running, right? There are hoses to be fed, fields to be weeded, and don't forget the other odd duties here and there. With this many spirits inone citadel, someone has to help make sure everyone has dinner and the laundry is done! Hopefully you have a good partner helping you today but as some might know, sometimes the bigger question isn't who they are but where they are... Someone has to do the dirty work! So where are you?! 2. Expeditions Not everything is about fighting. Sometimes there are assignments to gather intel or help clean up after another squad. There are small things that can be done to make sure history follows its course and some fo those things include feeding the hungry after a disaster or just making sure the right people meet after their paths were thrown off. Expeditions are perfect for the new addition that needs to be eased into missions before being sent to the frontline. 3. Frontlines - Before Whether you're ready or not, it's time to go out to the frontlines. There's a big mission everyone needs to do and history is wildly off course. A squad is gathered up and sent to a difficult time and a battle is inevitable. Is this moment painful for you? Well, such is the nature of a touken danshi, right? Don't get too close to "That Person" and don't get any funny ideas. ... Also, where's [insert name of problematic sword boy that was assigned on this mission for some god unknown reason]? Or maybe it's been 20 years and you're still on this mission! Sometimes missions last longer than a few days or weeks. They can drag on for months and those months sometimes become years. How have you been keeping your cover and making a living in this era? Remember, don't stand out or cause too much trouble. Are you homesick? When was the last time you saw the saniwa or your friends back home? Will this mission ever end?! 4. Frontlines - Battle Finally, it's time to fight! Everything you've done has prepared you for this moment and it's time to resolve it once and for all. Did you gather enough information to prepare for all of these enemies? You didn't get any funny ideas that might put you on the wrong side of this assignment, did you? Regardless of what happens, it would appears that [That Person You Keep Losing] has finally decided to show up when you needed them the most so at least you don't have to worry about that anymore. 5. Frontlines - After The battle is finally over and it's time to go back home. Was the mission a success or a total failure? Maybe you're coming back home with a +1 in your party. Regardless, it's time to get yourself checked out now. You've worked hard and it's time to get those repairs in. Hopefully they aren't too severe! But those with heavier injuries can expect to be down for a few days. Don't worry, there will certainly be plenty of bedside visits. 6. Wildcard This is basically an open post to deal with swords doing miscellaneous assignments whether it's mundane chores or mission based assignments. Feel free to come up with your own prompts for things like "babysitting the problematic sword boy," "have you seen Mikazuki Munechika?," and anything else you can think of. |

"I'm listening."
He's a a tiny bit curious if the favour actually has to do with the afore-mentioned breakfast, or if it was just an attempt to get him up.
no subject
“You were dreaming of our last mission, right?” he says by way of answer. “Did you happen to spend part of the night with little hoofbeats dancing on your head?”
no subject
"The dream ended before we could find them," he answers without opening his eyes.

no subject
"I suppose how it happened doesn't really matter. My advice would be for you to set out food for them in an open place, secure anything they could cause mischief in, and keep an eye on Gokotai's tigers."
Is that advice enough for the favour? Please let him sleep now.
no subject
“Where’s your sense of adventure? Where’s the brotherly love? And here I thought it would be a good time for us brothers to spend quality time together. Are you really going to let this opportunity pass us by?”
no subject
"I don't know what this task has to do with brotherly love, but if you want to spend time together, come back later and we'll have lunch and a spar. I'm pleased you want to give the Troops assistance, but I'm also certain they are perfectly capable of finding their own horses. They know their partner's habits best."
He tilts his head back and sighs. "Of course, you know I would be the first to lend a hand. However while my mind is willing, this body, unfortunately, has other priorities."
no subject
“Have it your way, then.” Though rest assured, he’s not at all offended by this. “But don’t forget to call if you hear any tiny hoofbeats.”
no subject
Yes, he is a capricious sword, and the wind blows either way.
Tonbokiri opens his eye that is not pressed into the pillow and smiles in a way that hopefully conveys more than his words can.
"Thank you, Muramasa. I'll see you for lunch." It's a promise. (He won't even complain if he sleeps in and Muramasa has to wake him again.)
