[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.]

[ cooking wasn't one of his strong suits so for the most part, Izumi didn't have a lot of reasons to linger there. of course, he was still able to help gather and store food, so he came and went from the kitchen from time to time. he'd just finished putting some items in storage when he turned around and saw-- well, he's not quite sure what he's looking at. there's nothing practical (or attractive, for that matter) about the strange moves. so he can't help but wonder the great question... why.

the best part is, perhaps, that thanks to the music - Kanesada can stare a bit. ah-- but he was almost finished with all the vegetables on the chopping board. so, he chooses to assist, handing him the washed potatoes out of the sink.

now it's his turn to question - just how long had Izumi been watching? ]

[ he'd actually thought he was alone for the moment, so lost in what he was doing and his music that he hadn't noticed izumi come in. so when there's hands suddenly handing him potatoes, haru actually jumps, stumbling back and dropping them with a little yelp of surprise, yanking his ear-buds out at the same time.

eyes wide as he stares, hands clutching his chest, he finally realizes.. oh god, izumi saw him dancing around like a moron. his ears heat, the blush traveling to the rest of his face in record time, and he drops his head into his hands. ]


.. Oh my God..

[ huh... well, he wasn't sure what it was, but one thing was quite clear - he hadn't intended for anyone to see it, and now that he knew someone had... he was embarrassed. heh-- no, no he's not going to let that go. ]

So. [ it's coming. there's no stopping it. Izumi's going to let him squirm a little, pausing before-- ] What was that? Is it some kind of ritual to pray for good food?

[ not sure if the truth is more or less embarrassing than that idea. he'd be better off wishing for lightening to strike Izumi's memory honestly. ]
