[ At least he was getting a little more used to his job. At first it had been a complete disaster, but now it was.. well, slightly less of a disaster? It's what happens when you expect a guy who doesn't get modern technology at all to try and repair cars, there was just a lot of failure going on before.

But by today things are at least a little better. If anything, Shinpachi will return to 1860s Japan with a surprising knowledge about cars and their inner workings.. maybe he can just invent the car way early or something at this point. Not that some stuff doesn't still go wrong or get dirty - even now, there's a huge smear of oil across the bridge of his nose that he doesn't seem to notice, his hair a little roughed up, and he's decided in true Shinpachi fashion - yes, even in the middle of November - to not zip up his overall for the most part, leaving most of his chest uncovered and bathing in sweat. He's just about ready to go on a photoshoot for one of those calendars with weird jobs in sexy poses, honestly.

Except that's not what he's doing right now. Since it's about time for lunch, he's moved out of the shop, standing outside and leaning his back against the wall with a sigh. Even a guy like him gets tired sometimes, okay! Especially concerning stuff like this.

His stomach is definitely grumbling though, maybe he should get moving.. after resting for just another moment. Yeah. Sounds good.

(He's never going to get anywhere before his break is over.)

[ > as long as he doesn't put anything weird in the blender

You sure are setting high expectations there for the gumis, Vietnam.. they're totally going to blend stuff that should never be blended, I can feel it in my bones... ]

Something with blades in it? [ He looks a little puzzled. Especially since blades comes down to FULL ASS SWORDS for him, so he can't imagine something having that.. inside of it... modern technology. ]

What, there's just a whole sword shoved in there? You can make food with that?

[hoasen]

[Oh no......goodbye whole rack of lamb, going into the blender.

With fish?!

It's going to bubble disgustingly isn't it.]

A whole sword? [WHY IS THERE...OHHHHHHH. Actually this makes sense now because he is outdated and very samurai.]

Oh no, little blades! Not sword length, about this small, usually. [And she sizes the length of the blender blades with her fingers.]

[ It's probably going to destroy half of the city. Flee while you still can, Vietnam.. especially before anyone realises that it was you who caused all of this. ]

Hah..

[ He gets it, nodding a little. Although it just births another terrible idea in his mind while he slowly shoves more food into his mouth with his chopsticks. ]

So technically I could do it with my sword too? Then again, wouldn't really wanna waste it on that. [ SWORD > FOOD.... even for Shinpachi... ]

[hoasen]

[The root of all evil, just as keikaku--I MEAN what has she done, she'll have to save this town. Maybe. Or not.]

Mmm...?

[She was so close to just nodding and agreeing with him, because technically he's not even wrong. Just that it probably wouldn't even be hygienic even, so it is a good thing he loves his sword more than his food?!]

W-well, you could, but yes you're right. It is better to just use kitchen knives.

[ He slowly nods as he shoves another piece of food into his mouth. For a moment he's quiet and just eats some more, but as always with Shinpachi, he inevitably speaks up again. ]

So.. did you do this back home a lot? Making lunches for people, I mean. [ Or is he just that ~special~. ]

[hoasen]

[She was totally ready for him to keep eating too, but hey if Shinpachi wants to talk!

TO BE HONEST he is included in "Special". Of many meanings, since she's still mesmerised by his high score...]

Ah, not as often as I would like. I do make for my siblings, and they would do the same. I didn't have many friends to make lunch for. [And with work colleagues, they just usually went out. Or if someone was visiting her house/she had to bring something for visiting another house.]

[nostatus]

[ Her not having a whole lot of friends still doesn't make sense to him, okay.. who wouldn't want to be friends with a free lunch provider, let alone if said free lunch provider is someone nice and fun enough to talk to on top of it. People have weird taste in friends, apparently.

Oh well. It just means there's more for him to stuff his mouth full of. ]

Then I guess I'm a special recipient of this lunch! [ He grins at her - even if there's still rice sticking to the corners of his mouth like an oversized kid.. ] I'll never forget it..!
