phase iii; [Kashuu's tied his ivy-covered mask to his hip near his sword, considering he's not down to play the whole "you throw it and it comes frisbeeing back to whack you in the noggin" game right now. Very inconvenient when you're trying to fight alien mercenaries.
That said, in between the battles he dives into, he'll be trying to help people with their own masks. It's pretty easy to pick up on the pattern after a little observation, so if he passes by anyone with a broken mask or a :( mask, he'll stop for a second - a quick:] Yo! You need any help? I can bring you to one of the safe areas.
[Anyone else with an ivy or feather mask will be approached a little more casually, considering they probably aren't On The Run like some people. They get:] This is a real pain, isn't it? Have any of 'em come after you yet?
[AND FOR OUR MURDEROUS FRIENDS the grey and bloody mask-wearers:] Wow... And I thought they were avoiding me. They aren't really after you at all, huh? Isn't that kinda weird?
phase iv; [The glitches strike and Kashuu is a bad luck magnet as always... And now he's a bad luck magnet stuck uselessly crouched over his own sword, because his hands glitched out and he can't pick it up. It's like being a proper tsukumogami all over again! Anyway, he's sure refusing to move from this spot with all these mercenaries trawling around and his vessel just out in the open. Bystanders near enough to hear him will get a pleading look.]
Gimme a hand here, would you?
[Or maybe you're unfortunate enough to catch him during a bad glitch. Not a fatal one, at least! But one that's vaguely concerning, considering he's not currently fighting but blood suddenly seems to be leaking out from under his scarf as though he's just been cut. He even flinches like it stings, touching his neck reflexively and - oh, yep. That sure is blood.]
Ah— Was I hit...?
bonus; [Guess who the last person he touched was? You, you lucky dog! And that means he's totally using these powers all wrong and he is so sorry. Maybe he just accidentally lobbed a fireball at your head! Maybe he's floating away into the distance with new levitation that he can't control. Either way, he's looking frantic and apologetic at the same time and kind of waving his hands in distress. Someone tell him to sheathe his blade before he does that.]
That is definitely not what I meant to do—!
[OR, if he's the last one you touched, it'll be a whole lot of ghosty tomfoolery to deal with. Not the "surprise! You're not solid anymore!" sort, at least, but increased strength and stamina, a sudden miraculous recovery from any exhaustion or hunger, and a huge burst of sakura petals in the air whenever you feel very happy or successful in battle. Nice.]
