the daily life meme

[kbcctv]

the daily life meme We all know sword boys don't fight 24/7, right? So what do they get up to off the battlefield? Plenty, actually. Getting ready for the day, having meals together, arguing over sleeping arrangements - there's a lot more to life than just sorties. This meme is all about that. ► A - morning 1. RISE AND SHINE, EVERYONE! Time to get up for another busy day. The alarm has went off in the Citadel's rooms, but not everyone heeds its call immediately. Are you already up even before the bell goes, or do you decide to lie in for just a little more? Has your buddy rolled off his futon? Maybe it's time to poke him to wake him up. Of course, the decision is ultimately yours to make. 2. Getting ready for the day. Due to the shortage of rooms, most swords have a roommate (or two). What're your daily rituals like? Want to comment on someone using too much hair gel or strange-looking liquids in modern plastic tubes? Or banging on the bathroom door because the other guy doesn't come out and you need to pee right now? Let's hope you can last until they finally make their exit... 3. Breakfast. Who's cooking? What's cooking? Do you like it? Do you not like it? If you don't, do you make your own? Don't set the kitchen on fire if you're trying out something new, too. It's expensive to get a new stove. 4. Sortie Preparations. Going somewhere new today? Better be sure you have all your troops and equipment in order. What colour did you get this time? If you don't ensure the little soldiers go into their spirit orbs properly, you won't get protection later on. And if you're not that happy with your squadmates, maybe someone will swap with you. Go ask around. ► B - daytime 1. Lunch...? Sorties often take full days, so lunch is usually bento on most days, prepared by one of the servant spirits or by a friend of yours. (No prizes for guessing who did it.) Have fun eating on the field. Maybe you can even grab some fruits off a nearby tree, if you're lucky! Let's hope no one swapped your packed lunch while you weren't looking... 2. For those resting. Not everyone goes out all the time, so there's bound to be a few swords remaining in the Citadel every day. What will you do to entertain yourself during this time? Sparring, watching television, or exploring the fields around? 3. Expeditions. These are different from sorties, in that there are no battles involved and you're only required to scout around. If you're sent to a populated place, then there's more to do. It's best to blend in, but maybe you can even goof off a little. Just don't do anything drastic, because that might change history and nobody wants that. 4. Day off. If it's break day, then everyone will be in the Citadel. Sleeping, hanging out with friends, mischief, or just chilling in your own room - the sky's the limit. ► C - evening 1. Welcome home. How did your sortie go? If you're injured, the saniwa will repair you. Or maybe your whole team got unlucky, and you're waiting in line. Yagen should be able to help you out, but can you find him? 2. Dinner. Usually more extravagant than breakfast, and held in the courtyard under the setting sun campfire-style. If anyone brought marshmellows, it's time to roast them - but if not, you can still enjoy your well-earned meal alongside your friends. 3. Technology time. There is a TV room in the Citadel, as well as a gaming room (by popular request). There's Smash Bros, Pokemon, an assortment of party games, and the ever-present Mario Kart. Will friendships be forged or broken today? Only time will tell. 4. Some peace and quiet. Or maybe none of these interest you, and what you really need right now is some silence. Go out to the fields and watch fireflies, or just enjoy the cool evening breeze. ► D - night 1. Cleaning up. There's a queue for the washroom to bathe. If you didn't take the chance to shower before dinner, you'll have to wait. Let's hope everyone has closed their doors properly... 2. Stargazing. Still lingering in the courtyard? There will be a feast for the eyes of those who stayed up late enough. Since the Citadel is so far away from everything else, the skies are perfectly dark - letting the brilliance of constellations shine through. Isn't it beautiful? 3. Sleepytimes. It's lights out, but not everyone goes to sleep on the dot. Are you still up chatting, or is the snoring of your roommate what's kept you awake instead? Roll them over to the side, maybe they'd stop this way. ► E - wildcard Feel free to write your own prompts!

is it bad that... i don't want this to end?

(OOC: Basic info post. tl;dr: Saniwa with attachment issues wants to prolong the war via messing things up.)

As one of the saniwa sages, Yua worked incredibly hard to watch over each and every one of the swords she personally summoned. Friendly and fairly sociable, it would seemed like nothing is amiss with her around and giving orders...

But for the most spiritually sensitive, they may sense something heavy from inside of her and it's slowly growing day by day. Whether she realised it or not, she usually dismissed it as feeling stressed and simply reassure anyone who ask.

Daily Life
It's fairly normal to see Yua running around and checking on how everything's going. Her own swords got her first priority, so don't be surprised if she check on them first. But then again, that might be because of her own responsibility as their master.

Whether she went to the dojo, the kitchens or the repair room, she's doing all she can to help her swords stay fit and healthy.

Sabotage
For the swords who she's truly attached to and wouldn't turn against her out of loyalty, on the night before their next sortie, she would approached them with a stoic expression.

"Hey, um..."

Does she need to say it, her orders to lead the mission off course? The other saniwas can always come in to stop the enemy. She just...doesn't want her swords to win so soon. It's a terrible thought for her to have, but still...it weighs heavily on her heart, when she think about the future.

Suspicions
As time went on, however, the swords under her care were coming back with losses and injuries. No sword have yet to break, but the results were starting to show and Yua would get talked to about it. She promised to lead her swords better, but deep inside her heart, the darkness grew.

Most of the swords wouldn't knew, save for Kashuu and Imanotsurugi, about her whispered orders and last minute changes (or damages) to preparations.

Maybe someone saw her at night? Or they have their own suspicions? Would they talk to her about it?

Wild Card
There's probably some other scenario you want to do.
