[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.]

still a cute yan terror
He doesn't want to think about it.
The moment Yasusada gets unsteady there's immediately a firm hand on his shoulder, anchoring the uchigatana down just in case he fell over. Mitsutada has one golden eye trained on the other, his expression now changed to full-on concern. ]
Yes, you are. You're coming with me.
[ While he still says it in his usual fluid and casual way, there is an undertone of firmness that indicates that he won't take refusal for an answer. ]
I'll clear up your stuff later, don't worry about it.
aggressively yans and terrorizes everywhere...
ultimately, it's the fact that mitsutada is his senpai and the firm note in his tone of voice that causes yasusada to relent. and though there's a protest on the tip of his tongue -- leaving the dojo in this state is disrespectful to the dojo -- he decides that better than protesting, he might as well get the food break over with as quickly as possible so that he can come back and clean everything up himself so that mitsutada doesn't need to bother. therefore, he nods, stiffly, and makes to set his training sword down. ]
There's no need to trouble yourself. I can come back later. [ he stifles a small sigh, so as not to be disrespectful to his senpai, and, slowly, he wills his boiling blood to subside.
after a beat, he offers a small smile. ] ... I'm steady enough to walk by myself now, Mitsutada-san.
[ not that he doesn't appreciate the gesture of the hand on his shoulder, but... ]
what a beautiful child
It is as they say: like master, like sword.
He knows well enough to immediately let go of Yasusada's shoulder as soon as the uchigatana looks less winded, shifting backwards ever so slightly to give the indication of letting the other have more space. ]
Let's go.
[ Yasusada will probably insist on returning after the food break (hasn't it already been established that even swords need a half-hour break to digest after meals??) so he would still need to think of something else. Hmmm... ]
clearly the sweetest of them all
as he walks, he tilts his head towards mitsutada, showing polite but sincere interest in every fibre of his being. ]
... were you the one who made lunch today, Mitsutada-san?
no subject
The question, though, is a good distraction, so he answers: ]
I did. Horikawa and Yagen helped too. There should be enough for everyone.
[ And if not, he could always make more. ]
no subject
still, he's grateful that mitsutada, horikawa and yagen have made the meal today. food is something to be grateful for. ]
I really appreciate your efforts, as always. [ he says this politely, but with a small smile. aggressive in the dojo, polite outside of it -- yasusada's personality changes at the flick of a switch. with a small uncanny smile, he tilts his head as he looks up thoughtfully. ] I wonder what the three of you made.
