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 quickly turns his head away from her, thanking someone for the fact that his hair was far too long to see just how much he was blushing. ]
no subject
Oh... that’s good. I’m glad you’re alright... [Oh, she doesn’t even know his name!]
Ah, I’m sorry! How rude of me to not even introduce myself! [She shifts to kneel properly on the floor then she bows down formally.]
It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m Kuwana Gou and I just arrived here a few days ago.
[Though, bowing down like that, just makes her, well, ‘assets’ even more apparent!]
no subject
You may know me as Izuminokami Kanesada. The extremely cool and handsome partner to the ever strong and faithful Hijikata Toshizo.
no subject
For now, Kuwana is unaware that her attire is the cause of his glowing cheeks.
She lets out a little gasp of awe and surprise, her eyes shining with excitement. She is but a simple girl from the countryside after all and he is the sword of such a famous person! This makes him almost a celebrity!]
Eh? You are Izuminokami-sama! I am extremely honoured to meet you!
no subject
[ At the very least, if he can talk about himself for a moment he can ignore the bubbling embarrassment he was feeling moments ago. ]
no subject
[But the great Izuminokami-sama seems to be having trouble doing the laundry...? Well, that must be because he’s much more used to being on the battlefield than with doing domestic chores. Yes, that must be it! (Though she has actually been in a few famous historic battles herself but...)
She starts picking up the fallen laundry.]
Do you need help with your chores, Izuminokami-sama?
no subject
[ He was honestly surprised by this. No one else had wanted to help him with his chores (though that might have something to do how he kept trying to get out of doing his chores in the first place...) ]
no subject
Yes... ah, unless you’d rather I didn’t...
[And now she can’t help wondering if she’s offended him in some way by offering to help!]
Ah! [She quickly bows in apology.] I didn’t mean to offend you, Izuminokami-sama! I’m sure you’re perfectly capable of doing the laundry, just that... just that it seems unfair that you have to do this all on your own... so I...

Everyone she has met so far has been really nice, so she can’t really imagine them being mean to one of their own. Perhaps there’s been some sort of misunderstanding?]
Thank you very much for your kind words, Izuminokami-sama. I’m more than happy to help you complete this task.
[And she begins to gather up the scattered laundry.]
