[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 to die 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.]

[If you pet him, he'll bite you. In his mind, at the very least. The nue jumps off his shoulders and starts sniffing the ground along side him, and he's crawled all the way to Horikawa's feet on his hands and knees with his nose to the ground. Only then, does he notice Horikawa speaking.]

Gao?

[Shishiō tilts his head up, and you can almost see the ? next to his head.] Why do you smell like peanut butter?

[Because he made something for you, dumbass.]

[ Yeah. No. Horikawa gives in to his inner desire, unable to hold it for much longer. So he reaches over to pet the puppy other sword (Good boy, good boy!), then follows up with revealing the dishes that he's prepared for him. It's easier to give him the answer this way. ]

Your senses are sharp as usual. [ The master will be proud. Anyway! ] Here, these are for you!

[ Still holding the tray, he now nudges it forward in order for Shishio's attention to divert towards it. Pan fried chicken, fried rice, mushroom soup, peanut butter brownies. ]
nuemercy: (happy- let's be alone together)

[The moment Horikawa's hand makes contact with his head and Shishiō comes to a belated realization about what he's doing, he turns away. Ah...]

Were you petting me?! I'm not-- [--a dog, he wants to say, but suddenly his head snaps towards where the food is. His nue follows suit, and they both stare at the food.

YOU CAN PET HIM ALL YOU WANT, HORIKAWA, THE FOOD IS WHAT REALLY MATTERS]


Really...? Really?! Hell yes! I'm going to eat everything!

[He goes soup for the soup first, taking the bowl and dunking it down his mouth, right there-- the nue licks of any of the soup that drips down his mouth. That's kinda gross, but w/e.]
