[AND LO, A WILD NAMAZUO APPEARS. That's the secret to his ahoge; it's actually a sensor for delicious food.]

Oh, Kasen-kun! [Namazuo is polite enough not to barrel past him and dive for the food. In fact, he looks a little worried! This is first time actually seeing Kasen for himself since their arrival.] Are you alright? Tsurumaru-san told me you fell in a dumpster!

( Yamato how could you do this to him... The television was literally the one thing getting him through this month. Literally. The one. Thing.

So when he comes back home to find the set smoking and a certain spirit fanning the flames, he just

stares. )

Ah! Be careful!

[Quickly, Namazuo crosses the room, kneeling down and catching Yamato's hands.] I'll get a broom, alright? You might cut yourself. [Perhaps a silly worry when they're, y'know, swords... but still.]

What man?

[ Close or far it's probably a better idea to make certain that when that closet door does start to ever so slowly start to creak it's way open a bit...there's nothing there.

Because the creepy closet monster has crawled his way out via the ceiling and trying to creep past a certain sword spirit without him noticing. ]

( What is this... a horror movie...??? Mutsu is not so familiar with this genre but that's creepy. And if there's one thing Mutsu is hyper sensitive about, it's the dark. He really doesn't like being unable to see. His old master was killed at night, you know. So he focuses his senses and it really doesn't take him long at all to notice something moving. )

Alright, real funny. ( Except he doesn't sound amused at all and he steps back towards the bedroom door, shutting it. He then places one hand at the grip of his sword while the other moves to turn the light on. ) Who's here and why're ya hiding in the dark?

[ When his eyes come into contact with Mutsunokami — there's a pause in his soul — in everything that Yamato lives for. His hands that are messing with the broken glass inside of the TV and fanning away some smoke stop as he takes in the male's appearance.

That's him.
He's sure of it. ]

Mutsunokami.. Yoshiyuki? You're here too?

[ Grabbing a broken glass from the TV, he holds it tightly as he has a change of plans. ]

It's nice to see that you're here as well. We should celebrate meeting once again. [ He pauses. ] I'll give you five seconds to run.

[ he reaches the doorway just in time to see yamato RUN OVER BY A PASSING BIKE. oh, no..... how is tsurumaru going to explain this to the saniwa? ("yamato needs repairs because he was run over by a bike? and why? haha, it's not like i know anything about that!")

either way, tsurumaru makes his way over after yamato doesn't seem to be getting up, pushing the bike off of him. it's not too heavy, but the owner of the bike is endlessly stuck in a trashcan, so it looks like it's their bike now. acquired +1 bike!! add to inventory? y/n? ]

Yamato?!?! Yamato, are you okay? Look, you won't know that if you don't try to get up—

[ and his hand is on the uchigatana's shoulder, shaking him back and forth, which is probably not helping in the least, but... he tried. please, yamato... it's too early for reforging.... ]

( "Mutsunokami...Yoshiyuki? You're here too?"

Dang. )

( "It's nice to see that you're here as well."

Ugh. )

( "We should celebrate meeting once again."

Aaaaaaugh. )

( "I'll give you five seconds to run."

HE WAS ALREADY RUNNING AWAY 3 SECONDS AGO. UGH WHY HE'S HEADED TOWARDS THE NEAREST WINDOW AND TRYING TO GET IT TO OPEN. YOU'LL NEVER GET HIM. )

hey

[It does, but she's doing it for his own good! Her grip still remains solid, but not so that it will hurt him. After all, he's injured here.

But she realises that he's saving a lost cause, and she needs to stop him while he's still ahead. It's touching that he would try so hard, so she understands he's a nice sword.]

I will clean your hands. [Once they start moving away from the television.] But ah...if you were watching the screen, then what you were watching were just moving pictures.

[ SUCCESS. ]

[ It doesn't take Yamato long to forget about the man in the TV and chase after his true calling:

Mustunokami Yoshiyuki.

Does someone think Yamato would let him get away? No. No. No.

Since he wants to take the window, the glass in his hand is pointed towards the other to scare him into scrambling to get it up.

insert jaws music theme ]

Aaah, you want to play a game? I don't mind!

[ Better get that window open. HE'S GAINING ON HIM. ]

( THIS IS TOO MUCH EFFORT. TOO MUCH.

He manages to get the window open easily enough (thank you Jack, for being a frequent visitor) and is already getting one leg up and climbing out but ah... ah... normally the height wouldn't bother him at all. He'd gladly and casually jump down a story or two but... alas...

NOW HE'S JUST HANGING ONTO THE WINDOW. One leg on the window's edge, both arms holding the window up. Soul regretting everything. )

Harujiiiiiii.

[ As soon as someone sneaks into the apartment ("sneak" being entirely in Kasen's mind, since he does have the door open), Kasen is immediately focused on the intruder, and ready to defend his hotpot to the death.

But luckily, it's just Kashuu! Of the other swords here, Kashuu is at least on of the swords that Kasen trusts to be scared off by his fearsome ladle. Not from stealing food at all, mind you, but a guard is a good enough deterrent. ]

It is, yes. I needed time to relax and acclimate myself to this odd city, but! I thought that chanko-nabe would be a wonderful way for us to eat together once again. I have the distinct feeling that it's been a while.

Ah, Namazuo-kun—

[ Kasen immediately gives him a smile as he enters, since Kasen tends to be biased towards being nicer to the tantous and the wakizashi. Even though swords that are technically older than he is tend to feel like children, though of course the wakizashi tend to be the older, more responsible children. Save for Nikkari, He's in his own category.

...But that cheer quickly turns into a huffy pout, since there's so much rudeness coming from Tsurumaru. ]

I should note that he fell in the dumpster as well. And it wasn't my fault!

[Iwatooshi nods as he slips inside, immediately glancing around the room to survey his new surroundings.]

Ah! I met him in that game thing a while ago... the one where everyone was in a jungle? [he wasn't sure if Mutsu had been there, but maybe he heard about it at least!] Is he around here now??

[ There's a lot going on for today, Yamato has went through many things and he's trying to get himself together. He knows that for some reason, he has a home here and as much as he protested — Kashuu just wouldn't let it slide. There's an idea that comes to the uchigatana if he shows interest of here and just disappear later in the night, he'll be able to live somewhere right? The park sounds like an interesting place to him, he'll find something to sleep in but for now. He'll deal with his time here for just a moment.

Pushing a door forward, he decides that it's best to at least attempt that he saw the room that his mirror would want him sleeping in. Though, what's hiding away inside does shock him. His heart beats and his eyes widen as he can't believe that he's here as well? He doesn't recall hearing about this, maybe he wasn't paying attention or maybe he couldn't believe it? Either way, he stares at the face before him and is thankful — truly thankful that nothing has happened to him.

He's fine. The things that happened in ViViD didn't effect him as much, he takes one more step froward until he retreats. Foot stepping outside of the room and forgetting that he shouldn't act so comfortable. Permission this and permission that. Was he.. expecting him? Either way, he pauses before he speaks. ]

Huh? [ That's not his bed, right? Or is it? Either way. ] I don't know what to say, I'm sure you were here before me.. [ He blinks once, then twice. ] Is something else being placed in this room? .. I'm sorry if I interrupted something, I didn't mean to be in your way.

[ IN THE END, YAMATO IS OKITA'S LIL SONION. THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY HE CAN ACT. ]

[ Is he out there.. calling for the Saniwa.. Yamato pauses, looking both left and right wondering if he'll appear. He's not here? HE'S SAVED! Doing his best in order to get Mustu outside of the window — Yamato decides to take the other way out and that would be by using the door available to him.

Of course, peeking outside of it he'd see Mutsu hanging outside.. just calling for someone to save him. That certain someone who Yamato hopes isn't here because they don't need to get in trouble! Besides, this is just between them? ]

When will you come down from there?

[ Does it leave? It better leave? Who is Cupcake? Ugh, Yamato is tired.

Feeling hands back on his haori, he really doesn't want to be surprised by seeing that the cat is probably still in the room — wanting to make his life hard. Would Kashuu keep it in the room to mess with Yamato? He hopes not. With one more pull, it doesn't take long to get Yamato unstuck from where he was, falling backwards and bringing Kashuu to the ground with him.

It's not such a bad thumb to the ground but Yamato is sure that he's felt worse. Gazing up at the ceiling above him, he blinks just a bit as he closes his eyes. He doesn't want to move from off the floor but he's also wondering something. ]

When will that cat become an outside cat.. it lured me to a window.. isn't that strange?

[ He's talking crazy, just hear him out. ]

Hm.. I'm sorry for bringing you down too, are you okay?

We can... if it's after school or when I don't have school.

[Speaking of school, Sayo haven't been attending because of the whole flood thing. Should he go back afterwards?]

Yes... Kashuu might be lonely without Dotanuki around. [...Whatever happened to that bug?]

Huh?

[Souji's eyes widen in surprise at the reaction, and then he's shaking his head and laughing, following Yamato as he's backing away and reaching out, taking one of his hands between his and giving it an inviting tug.]

Of course you're not interrupting, silly. And I'm pretty sure that's meant to be your bed, yes. That's why I asked.

[He beams at the sword, and while he's still thin, pale and sickly-looking, the rest really has done him some good, lifting his spirits as well as his health and allowing him to look as cheerful and exuberant as ever just for a moment. He gestures at the bed, seems to indicate that they can both sit down, while giving Yamato's hand a small squeeze. He's excited, now, to meet his other sword, to get to know him as he's gotten to know Kashuu, and hopefully to ease him out of being quite this awestruck around him.]

There are spare futons that I can sleep on if I want a bed to myself, but honestly most of the time I'll probably be sharing. [A sheepish little laugh.] That is, you don't have to share if you don't want to, of course - I just know that Kashuu Kiyomitsu doesn't mind. [By which he means that Kashuu is a clingy little octopus, and that suits him just fine.]

[CALM DOWN KASEN!! Kashuu isn't planning on stealing anything now... probably. The ladle is a mighty weapon when in Kasen's hand, he doesn't want to risk it.]

Yeah, it's been a while. I mean— most of us eat together most nights, but it's not really the same, y'know?

[They have jobs! Their schedules don't always align! Ookurikara and the Samonjis live elsewhere! And only half of their number is even here in the first place, so the difference is pretty vast.]

That smells good... [When will it be done???]

[There's a little startled yelp when Kashuu hits the ground too, but he's not hurt, either. Just surprised and vaguely miffed and glad that the cat actually did leave, since he'd have probably been squashed otherwise. Poor Katshuu...]

Geez... It's an indoor cat, Yasusada, and it's Sayo's so don't touch it. He doesn't even live here most of the time, so it'll be fine.

[Gosh!! Considering Sayo and Kousetsu are living here right now, though, Katshuu is going to be around a lot more than usual... But, sitting upright now! He makes a face when he spots some dust on his sleeve, quickly patting it away.]

Yeah, yeah. You?

[He asks, but he doesn't offer to help Yamato stand back up... Lord.]
