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. |
no subject
[At least as far as she knows... As for battling in a kimono, well, his kimono is much looser and has much more room for movement than her current attire!
Ichigo is feeling very content though with his answers so far, and she moves to sit on his lap so that she can snuggle closer against him.
However, his next answer does makes her look up with a frown and a pout.]
... Mikazuki... you can’t keep running away from your duties like that! Also... [She moves to whisper in his ear.] ... if you don’t do your chores, I can’t show you the other clothes I recently got. Aruji says she won’t give them to me unless you do your chores... They are things I can’t wear in public...
no subject
He's not really lying either when he says he's not sure if he's supposed to be anywhere else. He didn't pay attention. People usually find him when he needs to be somewhere and he is not.]
.... Oya oya, why exactly is Aruji buying you things you can't war in public? Do I need to have a talk with her?
[What is this blackmail?]
no subject
Well, it’s supposed to be a reward to motivate you to help out with the chores...
[She snuggles closer to him, kissing his neck softly, working her way slowly up to his ear.]
Doesn’t it sound like a very good reward for doing something so simple~?
no subject
He's going to retaliate with a kiss in her neck, his fingers tracing the top of the obi just below her breasts.]
I think unwrapping my present would be a better reward... and I get to do that every day, do I not?
[With or without chores done, because it's not like Ichigo can hold herself back on most days.]
no subject
His kiss and his caress is very distracting and she already feels her body getting quite warm. She pauses in her attempt to tease him as she tries hard not to make a sound instead. A tiny whimper still escapes though as she grips lightly onto his arm.]
B-but you haven’t done anything today to... d-deserve a reward.
no subject
Umu, I haven't? Then what should I do, then?
[But if it's true and if he hasn't, then he should probably.... stop what he is doing. right now. His hands are going to settle on her waist instead.]
And here I was looking forward to it.
no subject
Well, and since he asked, she’ll try again to get him to do what Aruji asked her to try and get him to do...!]
Your chores, of course, dear.
[Ahhh... but that felt so nice.... don’t stop...! No, she must do her best to resist his charms for as long as possible! She’s here on mission! But... but...]
You... well, I was too, but we can’t yet, Mikazuki! And anyway, it’s still so early in the morning...
no subject
[said like of course he'd be doing them if only he knew what they were, and why won't people take pity on this poor old man!]
Umu, what does it being the morning have to do with anything?
no subject
And I’ve already told you what you’re supposed to be doing, so you should go do them now. If you’ve forgotten how to get to the stables, I can take you there, but I’ll have to change first.
[Not getting her nice new kimono dirty!
... that question though... noooo, why are her cheeks betraying her by turning pink again?]
It has everything to do about it being morning! It... it’s for the nighttime because... that’s when there won’t be people walking about... who might hear...
[And she can’t help hiding a bit against him now. You know what embarrassing sounds you make her make and she doesn’t want anyone to hear them, okay?]
no subject
[And unwrap his present! So that's a win for him, then, isn't it?
But really, there's nothing quite as amusing and lovely as making her blush like this. She is so pretty when adorably flushed and embarrassed.]
On the contrary, everybody is out right now. At night, all the rooms are occupied. Aren't people more likely to hear then?
no subject
She huffs, determined to resist him for as long as she can, while looking away quite sheepishly.]
T-Thank you for the offer, but I-I am perfectly capable of changing my own clothes, Mikazuki! And I know that you’re just trying to distract me!
[That is a good point though. There is hardly anyone around right now. They could do whatever they wanted and she might not need to suppress all the sounds she wants to make- Stop! No, she mustn’t fall for yet another attempt to divert her attention! Ahhh... but why is her husband so good at making her want to- Her body feels so warm and a little bothered already from the thought of-!
She continues to keep her gaze away from him. Maybe if she doesn’t look at him, it’ll be easier to deny him.]
T-That is true, but what if someone... what if one of my siblings comes to look for me?
[For that is something they do quite often in the daytime, especially the younger ones...]
no subject
[Apart, from, you know, not actually wanting to do the chores he's supposed to do, which he will not be able to do if he has to care for his lovely wife who of course takes precedence over all else.
Her objection brings a gentle laugh. Because it's not actually a no.]
Hahahahaha, well, you are welcome to change in my room. No one usually comes in during the day.
no subject
[Stop using her as your excuse, Mikazuki!
Well, her clothes are in his room since she spends almost all her nights there. She is also aware that she didn’t actually say ‘no’ because he’s now planted the idea in her head that it’s possible to do certain things in the daytime too, and she can’t stop thinking about it...! But no, chores come first! She mustn’t be affected by his bad influence!
Ichigo finally turns back to face him.]
I will do that, but you need to change too as you can’t wear this to the stables. You’ll get it all dirty.
[She gets up, taking his hand to try pulling him up as well.]
Come on. We need to get changed.
[And she will need help undressing after all, just like how she needed help putting on her kimono in the first place. For though she’s very skilled at helping him dress, she is very unused to wearing more traditional clothing herself... Modern clothing is so much more convenient after all.]
no subject
But of course, he has to be a bit extra about it, so after a few steps, he is going to grab her around the waist and sweep her off her feet and right into his arms.]
Oya, my lovely wife must be tired after running all over to look for me. Allow me.
no subject
Ichigo lets out a gasp of surprise then quickly puts her arms around his shoulders. She is about to protest, but she also really likes being carried, especially by her husband, so after a brief moment of internal conflict, she leans happily against him with a little smile instead.]
I’m not really that tired but this is really nice. Thank you, Mika-
[Wait! Hang on a moment though! Usually, when he carries her like this to his room- Her brow furrows into a little frown and she looks at him seriously.]
Mikazuki! We’re only going back to change and nothing more than that, okay?
no subject
[He laughs.... but doesn't agree to anything as he carries her all the way to the room he occupies in the Sanjou area of the Citadel. here in a row, you can find his room, and then next door Kogitsunemaru's and after that Ishikirimaru's.
They are, of course, all empty at this time of day.
He comes into his room, the lowered bamboo blinds giving some shade and intimacy to the atmosphere, and finally lowers her to the floor.]
Do you need help?
no subject
[Don’t laugh! Why are you laughing?? Stop!!
Her serious expression soon slips into a rather sulky pout as she just knows he’s most probably going to try something to distract her from the most important issue of getting him to do his chores!
Yet, she can’t help noticing how quiet and empty this side of the citadel is right now. It seems even quieter than at night... Perhaps, it really would be all right to... She steals a glance up at him. Husband looks so perfect and irresistible as always. Just look at those very kissable lips, for example. Those very skilled lips that bring her such pleasure. Just the thought of it is making her...
NO! No, she mustn’t be sidetracked. She has to set a good example and all that, after all! And Aruji entrusted her with the mission of... but, but Mikazuki’s poor chore partner has probably already resigned themselves to the fact that they’re going to have to complete everything on their own. It wouldn’t really make much of a difference now, would it? Why waste this perfectly good alone time with her beloved? It would be such a terrible terrible waste...
And in the short time it took Mikazuki to carry his wife back to his room, he’d already successfully changed her mind without even having to say a word.... orz
At his question, she stretches out her arms, glancing over her shoulder at him with a shy little smile.]
Yes, please help me undress, Mikazuki.
no subject
When she holds out her arms, he comes closer behind her, putting his arms around her so he can start untying her obijime. And put it aside carefully. And then start on the ties that hold her obi, undoing the heavy silk almost agonizingly slowly.
He is a tease, Ichigo, and you should know it by now.]
You will help me out too afterwards, won't you?
no subject
Yet... she is unable to stop from leaning back against him when he come to stand behind her and reaches over to untie her. And she loves hearing his voice so close to her ear.
Well, two can play at this game of teasing even if she isn’t as good at it as she used to be (yet) but she has been practising.]
Mn? But surely you shouldn’t have any problem undressing yourself?
no subject
[Would his beautiful wife just leave him to slowly consume himself inside all of his silk?]
You know how long it takes to remove all of this if I do it on my own?
[Of course he is being a tease with this because he knows she won't have the patience, but it is also true. There is a reason why Kogitsunemaru usually helps him put it on, and it's because if not he'd be even later than he normally is to everything.]
no subject
... well, it’s your own fault for dressing like this on such a hot day, dearest~ But we’ll see how I feel after you help me undress. If you do a satisfactory job, I might help you... a little.
[She might not have the patience to undo all his layers on her own, but she is quite familiar with how to remove them.]
no subject
[One he has the obi off, he takes the time to actually fold it properly, since it's such a beautiful kimono and it would be a shame if it got wrinkled. And he puts the himo away too. And then he starts on the himo actually holding her top layer closed.
When it finally opens, he slowly turns her around in his arms and then pushes the heavy silk off her shoulders, watching it slide down her body and pool at her feet while only leaving her in the white undergarment.
And then he puts his hand on the himo holding that close, and starts pulling on it.]
You look like you are hot too. Maybe I should help you wipe your sweat off before you change.
no subject
She’s pulled back to the present when he speaks and she realizes that he’s almost done undressing her. She glances up, that faraway look still visible in her eyes, not quite hearing what he’s just said. He has probably seen this before, this look she has when she’s remembering something and the other her surfaces.
Ichigo (Tenka) reaches up to lightly caress his cheek with a soft smile.]
Mikazuki...
[Then she kisses him, quite eagerly, as if she hasn’t seen him for a long while.]
