[The Citadel is huge, so it's a good thing they have all the time in the world to dick around.
--Well, no, they don't. But the point is, it's a free day. There will be absolutely no work done at all. Unless you want to or something. If you do, you're pretty weird.
The dojo is always open for sparring and practice. If there's any sparring errand you've slacked on, now's the chance to make up! The horse stables are also full of activity, whether the horses are being tended to or rode around-- be careful not to let them trample the fields, though, which is full of rice sprouts and budding cabbage. The lake in front of the saniwa(s)' room has tiny frogs jumping about, and you could catch them in the palm of your hand.
The kitchen is full of food, if you're volunteering to make lunch or have decided that meal time cannot possibly come any later and you simply must prepare something before you die from starvation. While there has been a considerable effort made to make the Citadel look as homely as possible to the swords which come from Japan's past, there's speckles of technology here and there.
The TV room is a good example, with a huge screen sitting on top of a few console systems. Don't break them, you'll only be getting this luxury once. Take turns and play nice. The swords may also find themselves tending the fields with water sprinklers and hoses instead of watering cans, for instance, or heating up some leftover pie in the fridge instead of making another one from scratch since there's technology to preserve food well over a week. The armory and smithy are definitely a little bit more modern than they'd be back in the past, though much is still made by hand-- nothing beats the fine work of a master. Perhaps you'll have a few new friends today, or you want to try creating a cute little soldier spirits todie for you accompany you in battle. Make sure they enter the orb completely, or else it'll turn brown and crack.
Or perhaps you're one of the unlucky swords still stuck in the repair room, sword body still being re-smelted and fixed. Hope the saniwa is good at making you all shiny. If you want to skip all that waiting, perhaps you can try to use a helper token... but they're all in the saniwa's room! Guess you've got to use that Camouflage stat...
But if you truly cannot bear with staying in the Citadel, the time device the saniwa(s) have isn't locked away. You can go on sorties or expeditions to fill your time with something productive.
Just a warning: don't change the past. You won't succeed.
...You could always try, though.]

Aw...
[ He's not going to give up just yet. He runs back into the citadel for a moment and then returns with a rope. He places the net, his sword, and the rope in front of Mikazuki. ]
Help me tie my net onto the end!
no subject
not to actualyouth. Mikazuki had been watching Hotarumaru from the sidelines, chuckling away and sipping at his tea as he did. HE REMEMBERS BACK IN HIS DAY WHEN HE HAD THAT MUCH ENERGY...Ah. But. He left. And now his entertainment is gone— or so he thought. ]
—Hmm?
[ Mildly torn away from his tea, Mikazuki blinks as the objects as thrown in front of his face.
Boy what are you... ]
Ah ha ha, quite determined, are you not? [ All smiles, and certainly no sign of judgement anywhere. He finds this oh so endearing. ]
If that is what you wish, I will help you... [ He places the drink down, beckoning the boy to place the objects in his hands. ]
no subject
They won't escape me so easily!
[ They thought he couldn't reach from that distance, but they better think again!
He goes ahead and places the rope and net into jijii's hands. But Hotarumaru will hold the odachi steady by himself. NOBODY TOUCHES THE SWORD BUT HIM... and maybe the Saniwa. ]
Right here at the end! This is good enough!
[ He points at the end of the sheathe. ]
no subject
Not that the older sword minded in the least- in fact, he found the boy all the more endearing when the objects were being placed in his hand.
Ah. Right. The sword is only for him to hold... though wasn't he he going to touch some part of it while tying the rope? He thought it better not the bring that up. ]
After this, I am certain you will be granted the title of "Japan's Greatest Frog Catcher". [ Oh. What a cute name. He'll laugh at that.
But it's on to more serious work now! Just as the sheathe is held out to him, so Mikazuki will begin to tie the rope around it. He... wasn't too sure how this would work, but at least he would be here to observe how it would pan out. ]
Please do be careful not to fall in.
no subject
I'll wear it with pride!
[ Not only that, he'll be the hero of fireflies!! No frog is going to eat anymore of them on his watch!!
With the net tied to the end, he holds his... netsword up proudly. With this weapon of mass destruction, he'll be catching those suckers in no time.]
Wish me luck!
[ First, the dice roll to determine which angle of the lake he'll approach. And then comes the scouting to determine the best formation to net those frogs.
this is an actual battle okay]no subject
... Though in the meantime, he is taking advantage of this moment of peace and drinking his tea while relaxing. Thank you very much. ]
As I hope you do. [ It was a very important title, after all. And the boy seemed so thrilled with it- really, Hotarumaru couldn't be anymore endearing.
Even more so when he asks the older sword's wishes, to which he will happily comply with an eager nod of his head.
He would clap, but y'know, the cup in his hand and everything. So you'll have to be content with the soft 'woo'ing' he is brushing past his lips.
