voice test! beep beep.

A: good route!

[ On one early afternoon, you may find Uguisumaru in the kitchen with two ceramic tea kettles on the stove. They steam, hiss, and whistle as he tends to them, pulling them off individually and opening them up to place a tea strainer with loose tea leaves, berries, and other sorts of floral ingredients inside each stainless steel ball. The tachi does this without his eyes on the pots, as he settles into a confident and steady rhythm, preparing the two different pots of tea, their flavors unfamiliar to him. The perks of living in an accessible world. He'll notice if you enter or if you're peeking in and will direct a smile toward you. ]

Would you like to try a new blend with me?

B: ... bad route?

[ Or maybe you'll catch him as he's nearly finished with his preparations, and he's on the second pot but something goes wrong. He reaches out and does not touch a familiar kettle but the stove itself! He'll yelp out in pain and surprise, smacking a spare pot off of the counter and causing it to fall. It hits the floor and shatters. Luckily, there's no water or tea inside to cause an even bigger mess, but he's staring at his hand, cradling it... looking awfully worried and in shock. He's shaking, clearly unable to decide the direction he should take. ]

C: anything???

[ Throw a scenario at me, I'll try my best. uwu Also, here's a bird. ]

[Despite Satoru's misgivings about getting too close to his swords, he's been trained to be a saniwa, someone who cares for his swords and makes sure they are intact. He's always making sure not to neglect that duty, at least, and is always willing to tend to the swords wounds.

So when he enters the kitchen just in time to see Uguisumaru burn his hand, his first thought is to mend the hurt. Clearly, the blade has no idea how to deal with such burns and without his usual distance, Satoru reaches out. His fingers capture Uguisumaru's sleeve in a for once firm grip and guides the sword to the sink.

Cold water applied early is the best treatment for a burn so Satoru looks up at the blade once the water is cooling the burned skin.]


Keep it there. [Time to fetch the first aid kit.]

[It's not like it's a daily occurrence so Satoru makes a quiet noise of acknowledgment as he digs through the cabinet in search of the first aid kit. He did learn fairly early that it's better to keep a first aid kit in both the kitchen, bathroom and training area. Even though the swords don't go out of their way to get injured, they sometimes do end up with cuts and bruises.

Thankfully, they heal quickly.

First aid kit in hand, Satoru turns off the stove to prevent another burn or a possible fire before returning to Uguisumaru's side. He peers at the wound before looking at Uguisumaru's face.]


Does it still hurt?

[personal profile] bladekeeping 2015-07-29 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[Slow and deliberate, Satoru peers at Uguisumaru's hand. The water is making it a little more difficult to look at the entire burned area and he reaches out to turn Uguisumaru's hand slightly so he can look at it properly.

It really isn't a big injury, some cooling lotion and some bandaids should take care of it in the long run. Uguisumaru's undeniably tough.]


It doesn't. It'll stay uncomfortable for a while but it'll heal.

[There is no reason for Uguisumaru to be worried, even if his actions were a little clumsy.] ...Were you making tea?

[personal profile] bladekeeping 2015-08-04 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh Uguisumaru. Today really hasn't been your day, has it? It's even enough for Satoru to make a vague expression of concern, eyebrows knitting together.]

You can make some again later, if you want.

[No reassurance, no stern talking to, simple, quiet acceptance. It really isn't that big of a deal, a broken teapot and a cup. They have plenty of others to fall back on if push comes to shove. Plus, Uguisumaru didn't do this intentionally.

Satoru opens the small first aid kit and looks through the contents.]


Has the pain lessened a little?

[personal profile] bladekeeping 2015-08-05 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[Rather than answer verbally, Satoru places the contents next to the first aid kit so Uguisumaru can see them. Some band aids, a small rolled up bandage, some scissors as well as disinfectant. The bare necessities, such as they are.

The sword's swords have made Satoru curious, however, and he looks at the wounds.

And pauses.

Right. Accelerated healing. He needn't have worried. But still, the seed of doubt remains and Satoru pulls out a cooling salve, opening it before giving Uguisumaru an expectant look.]


Your hand, please.

[personal profile] bladekeeping 2015-08-07 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[It's better to be safe than sorry and since Satoru doesn't know how much he should use in the first place, he spreads a liberal amount of cooling salve over the burn. He's careful about it, trying not to cause Uguisumaru more pain for the wound is most likely still sensitive.

Once he's satisfied, Satoru washes his hands and cocks his head questioningly at the blade.]


Thank you. Does it feel better already?

[personal profile] bladekeeping 2015-08-09 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[At those words, Satoru makes a quiet noise of acknowledgment, though not agreement. Making an effort like this, treating the sword's injury, it's all part of being a saniwa. Even if they heal fast and he really shouldn't bother, there is something very human to it all.]

...What kind of tea were you making?

[Because, despite the mess, the smell still lingers and it's quite the pleasant fragrance.]

( He'd only come to the kitchen to raid the pantry for the junk food flavor of the week. Would it be a new potato chip? A type of candy? Who knows, it's always a surprise. Last time, he'd only found rice crackers so maybe this time he would have some luck--

Ah, he really isn't expecting to be invited to tea, though. Not that he minds! But he's aware of the fact that he isn't exactly... the calm and peaceful tea drinking partner type. He looks around, half expecting to see Mikazuki or... anyone else really. Seeing no one, he blinks,

Ya mean me?

Uh...

( Yeah, about that healthy snack option... He hovers around in the same spot for a while longer and then concedes, coming over to try some of this tea. He still isn't certain that he's really going to like it but he's far too nice to decline. Ah, it's time to practice his polite smile and tough his way through another bitter tea sitting--

What was that smell? Uguisumaru will actually see Mutsu light up at the scent, curiosity now piqued. He takes a seat across and look over to watch the tea pour,
)

A new kind, huh? Where'd ya get it from?

( He isn't untrusting like other swords. On the contrary, he has no reason to doubt Uguisumaru's suggestion so he peers over at the contents of the cup. It certainly looks different than regular tea and it smells different too... Accepting it with both hands he bows his head lightly in thanks and takes a moment to smell it like Uguisumaru suggested.

It smells nice. Sweet. He likes it and so he gives it a try--

Watch his eyes go wide with surprise at first taste. Did he burn himself?? No. Ah... this might be one of the few teas he actually really enjoys.
)

It's good...! ( He sounds just as surprised as he looks. ) What kind is it?

[personal profile] newtimes 2015-08-02 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
I didn't even know ya could do that.

( He's had tea with flowery and fruity tastes and even some that were a little creamy but none that were chocolate. This opens new possibilities here. )

Really? Ya're sure? I don't wanna take it all.
