Rating/Warning: PG because of language
a; it sounds like a joke; "a thug walks into a flower shop..." (shopping district)
[ Someone like Yata into indoor gardening is a rare sight, so he is met with a few raised eyebrows as walks down the streets with a pot of forget-me-nots in his hands, wilting due to reasons one can already guess from appearances alone. He seems particularly worried about his current predicament though, and if you're close enough, you might hear him talk to himself. ]
Where the hell is the plant doctor? Do those even exist? Why are flowers so high maintenance, anyway? [ No, Yata, you're just wrong. He sighs. ] I'm so dead...
[ He's this close to just asking Totsuka.
OR! You can find him at an NPC-run flower shop, (but not the one Vietnam works at!) fidgeting awkwardly. ]
b; it feels like he waited nine long years (game center)
[ There's a holographic display advertising the new available scenarios in ViViD! One of them is called Last Legend XXV, in which up to four players can explore an open-world environment, fight monsters and complete quests as they go on a mission to seize their kingdom's crystal from the clutches of their enemies! New features include the ability to switch weapons during battle, vehicle travel... and camping...? Another is called Zokuzoku Remembrance, a new action/romance (!?) game that will get your heart pounding in more ways than one. It seems to be a straight up beat-'em-up game, but the ad also says you have to "fight for your love". What does that mean? Yata sure doesn't know. The last one is a more musical game called Star Show! in which you can sing, dance and fight aliens as an intergalactic super idol. While Yata has some reservations regarding the selection, he's just happy to see games he already knew about up there. ]
Hehe, I tested some of these! Man, the new Last Legend looks cooler now that it's finished...
[ OR! If you're alone, Yata might catch you looking at the display instead. Which ad is your character looking at? He'll definitely have something to say about it. ]
c; he'd punch them for you if he knew how to drive (anywhere)
[ Maybe you're busy on your Cerevice, texting your friends and browsing the network. Maybe you're way into this song on your music player, or need to get something that flew out of your grasp and onto the street. Maybe you're just a little out of it today. Whatever the reason, you're about to absentmindedly cross the road. However, a hand forcefully pulls you by the collar, the back of your shirt, or your wrist; and in the short instant it takes the traffic lights to change from red to green, a group of motorcycles zoom past you at an incredible speed. You're safe, but the voice behind you seems to be angrier than you should be. ]
Assholes... Hey, you okay?
[ Whether he looks frightening or genuinely concerned is a matter of perspective. (It's the latter.) ]
d; wildcard
[ Hit him up anywhere! He's most likely up and about, doing odd jobs, breakdancing for money, shopping for Christmas gifts, walking to the infirmary with injuries or skateboarding anxiously. Whatever, these are just a few ideas, GO CRAZY. ]

Nice to meetcha. So what're you going to the gardens for? [ To meditate and give shrine offerings!? ]
no subject
I am to tend to the gardens... [ he's also a portable shrine priest, whatever that meant. His master was a Buddhist priest, so in theory he could technically teach it, but he's not sure if it would be acceptable to do so. Regardless he looks around while talking folding his arms into the sleeves of his robes. He walks easily in stride with Yata and his beads clink together in the silence that follows his words. But he'll speak up again shortly. ]
...it is one of my duties here that I am willing to fulfill. [ He never minded hard labor, not one bit, so this is actually right up his alley to be honest. Tending the fields and doing household chores...that's the one thing that made him feel good and of some use back at home. Being a sword that didn't like fighting wasn't exactly...natural. But he tried to make up for it in other ways. ]
no subject
[ Kousetsu seems to have responsibilities other than the gardens. He appears to be the studious type, so it's not hard to imagine. Maybe he is a Buddhist priest. He doesn't see a lot of those in the city, but they always seemed so together. ]
So there's stuff here you don't wanna do?
no subject
He'll look back at Yata and nod his expression shifting to something dour. ]
If it is fighting then...I would rather not partake in it. If it causes sorrow or fear then I will not do it, unless there is no other option.
no subject
One of those pacifist types, huh? I don't blame you. If it's a fight to settle a score, I'd go all out! You know!? [ He makes a few jabs at the air, then drops his hands. ] But killing someone's just...
[ He wouldn't hesitate to kill if it was for the sake of his friends, but at the same time, he's never actually killed anyone before. Remembering Mikoto and Totsuka, he shakes his head. ]
So what do you do? Back home, I mean.
no subject
Fighting should not be used unless absolutely necessary. It should be discussed before any attempt at war be made. [ He watches Yata with a blank face. Though he entirely agrees with the sentiment. Kousetsu would never actively kill someone unless he ultimately had to. ]
I am...a sword. I was given life by our previous master, the Saniwa sage. [ He says this, as with everything, totally serious and with a very straight face. He is not joking. ]
no subject
What? A sword? That's new! [ He doesn't buy the sword thing, but he'll play along since the guy sounds so serious about it. ] This Saniwa person sounds real nice if they go around giving life to stuff like that.
no subject
We were brought back into the world to...fight and protect. [ But it seems like even they were not successful in their goals. ]
no subject
Cool! Fight and protect what?
