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.

He returns that light grip on his hand and smiles down at her. And laughs at her stomach making such a sound.

"That is clear enough, isn't it. Here, I'll help you sit up again. Shokudaikiri suggested a rice porridge with strawberries and a little cream. It's cooled off quite a bit by now, but I'm sure it will still be delicious."

Getting her propped up against some pillows against the wall, he can start to spoon feed her. He carefully doesn't put too much on the spoon, and holds it so near her lips that she barely needs to move to take a mouthful.

She smiles a little at his laughter and nods before sitting up with his help. Then she slowly and steadily sips spoon after spoon of porridge, soon getting through half a bowl.

When she pauses half-way done, he pauses as well.

He asks her questions, carefully giving her time to respond to each one, "Are you finished? Or would you like more? Or something different? Something to drink?"

She shakes her head. No, she isn’t finished. Before nodding and reaching out for the bowl. Yes, she would like more, please. However, just as she’s about to eat more, she suddenly feels the need to... well, use the facilities...

She blushes lightly, trying to figure out how to tell Tonbokiri. Eventually, Ichigo reaches out to take his hand, then she traces the word ‘toilet’ in his palm.

He wonders what seems to have her a bit flustered, but when he writes that onto his palm-- "Eh?" He jumps to his feet, putting the bowl of porridge down.

"Ah, it's just across the hallway of course, but... Ahem. This is a medical matter, and you can trust me to be discreet, Ichigo. Here, let's start with can you walk, or shall I carry you?"

He pulls back the covers from her legs and watches to see if she has the energy to get up on her own.

Ichigo slowly swings her legs over the side of the bed then she reaches out to Tonbokiri for support as she gets unsteadily to her feet.

Then she glances up and nods at him. She thinks she should be able to walk over with his help.

Nodding back confidently, he helps her across the hall as quickly as she can manage.

Once he ushers her into the small toilet room, he turns his back but leaves the door slightly ajar so he can stick his arm inside.

"If you need to, just hold on to me. If you need my help, tug on my hand."

He hopes that will be enough support.
ichigohime: (why me)

[personal profile] ichigohime 2019-12-19 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
She manages to say in a coarse whisper. “.... it’s fine... I can manage...”

It’s so embarrassing to have the door ajar as she really doesn’t want him to... hear the tinkle of fluid against the porcelain as she relieves herself but it is safer to have arm there.

Ichigo quickly does her business, flushes, washes her hands on the little wash basin atop the water closet, then she rests a hand on Tonbokiri’s arm.

“... can go back now...”

He dutifully ignores all the sounds. (What sounds?)

"I'm glad to hear you speak, but you needn't push yourself, Ichigo," he says softly as he takes her hand and walks her back to her bed. Again, it is hard to see this strong blade so weakened, but she will return to full strength soon enough. He knows so.

Once he helps her get settled on the bed again he asks, "Do you still want to eat?"

Such a considerate brother!

She gladly lets him lead her back to her bed. Then she nods and waits to be fed. After which she’ll sleep some more.

This will probably be her life for the next few days, till she regains her strength.
