[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.]

[ Clearly the food is the battle, Shishio! Didn't you know? ]

Yeah? What's wrong with that?

[ Food is important, okay! ]
nuemercy: (glare- but I don't think I'm coming home)

[But... but...!

Actually, you know what. The yelling is so passionate, he can't give it up.]


How do you manage the spirit to yell like that over cooking?! Eating, I can understand, but just cooking?

[It's so boring and oil flies into his nue's fur, okay. 8( ]
candlecutterpikachu: i.e. the kitchen (a devil in his own habitat)

[personal profile] candlecutterpikachu 2015-03-28 01:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh god, you started him on talking about cooking. ]

That's because the spirit of cooking is not easily appreciated! Producing fine works of art for others to experience is something that can only be done with style. And style needs to be invoked with true passion!

[ DROP THE NUE THEN. It can go eat in a corner while you busy yourself!! ]
nuemercy: (surprise- say yeah)

[personal profile] nuemercy 2015-03-28 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Suddenly, Shishiō feels like he's invoked something terrifying.

AND WOW, HIS NUE IS VERY IMPORTANT...!? It's a reflection of his bond to his old master! At least it's cooler than the fucking eyepatch you put on!!!! do u even need that eyepatch......]


I've never seen you so worked up over something! [SCREAM] Is the spirit of cooking really that powerful?!
candlecutterpikachu: (i want to do things with style!)

[ This is precisely why Mitsutada isn't actually cool.

Though, true to his calm nature, his expression settles by quite a bit. Not enough to completely go back to his usual relaxed and confident smile, but it does become more subdued. ]


Cooking is something cool, so of course it's something I'd do.

[ Peace.

And as to whether he needs that eyepatch or not... it's a ~mystery~ ]

nuemercy: (yell louder- This is the road to ruin)

[personal profile] nuemercy 2015-03-28 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[O-OKAY...

Shishiō just nods slowly. RIGHT, RIGHT, SPIRIT OF COOKING. OF COURSE. IT'S COOL...]


...It's not actually that cool, is it?

[And then he says the worst words possible.]
candlecutterpikachu: (okay fess up who ate all the candy)

[personal profile] candlecutterpikachu 2015-03-28 02:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[ WOW??

There is a pause of exactly 0.2 seconds before Mitsutada folds his arms. But again it's a gesture that's very casual, completely unlike the aggressive stance he adopts on the fields. ]


You need to appreciate it more, evidently.
nuemercy: (sideeye- and I said)

[personal profile] nuemercy 2015-03-28 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Phew, not that terrifying. Still!!!]

But it's just cooking, right? You're not putting yourself in danger doing it!

[Unless the pot really hates you, or you're hypersensitive to fire, or...]
candlecutterpikachu: not in the fridge, we've all heard that joke (i'm pretty sure that giraffe doesn't fit)

[personal profile] candlecutterpikachu 2015-03-28 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He's not terrifying because they're not fighting. It's a completely different story on the field. ]

Yes, but that's not the point. The point lies in the style.

[ Quite a few of their comrades are hypersensitive to fire, though it's more of a mental than an physical thing. ]
nuemercy: (sarcastic- for one more troubled soul?)

[personal profile] nuemercy 2015-03-28 02:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's not terrifying on the field either, tbh. Who the fuck fights with a tie and a fucking dress shirt. Tenryuu does too.]

...Style... so you're saying cooking has style because it's a fine work of art...?

[Ah, this is too complicated for him.

And wow, too soon?! (It's been like 400 years, Timpeni.)]
candlecutterpikachu: (thanks amy) (my shoelaces are cool!)

[personal profile] candlecutterpikachu 2015-03-28 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ IT'S COOL, OKAY. SHUSH. Another reason they may or may not be clones. ]

Of course. It's not appreciated by most people, but it's there. [ wow all you plebians scoffing down your food!

Though honestly, he doesn't mind. As long as his comrades enjoy it, it's enough. ]
