Week 1 | Saturday

[goatsongs]

[Chuuya spends some time searching for Hizamaru, and eventually finds him sitting by the pool. Looking for some serenity, probably. God knows they all need that.

He clears his throat first - wouldn't be surprised if Hizamaru was jumpy.]

Can I keep you company?

Comments

[goatsongs]

[Better than Chuuya's tiny arms, probably.]

Hugs are surprisingly nice, huh. Even I like them.

[leggymaru]

They're... different. We don't usually do a lot of hugging at the Citadel. Sometimes, between some of us.

I don't... think I mind them.

[goatsongs]

Maybe you should do more of them, when you get back.

[when and not if.]

[leggymaru]

[When not if preferably.]

Perhaps. I'm not sure how the others may take it, but... it's interesting to see what humans do as humans.

[goatsongs]

We're pretty weird as a species.

[leggymaru]

You are very strange, but... my comrades and I wish to protect you.

[goatsongs]

We want to protect you too, you know.

[Maybe not swords as a general species, but the ones who are here.]

[leggymaru]

You have all been very kind to us. Thank you. You don't have to worry. We're strong and resilient. As long as you take care of my comrades and my elder brother, I'll be happy.

[goatsongs]

...Alright, but I'll take care of you too. You don't get a say in that.

[As much as someone like him can take care of anyone.]

[leggymaru]

[He opens his mouth, but then shuts it.]

You're kind of scary when you're serious, Chuuya-san.

[He's teasing.]

[goatsongs]

Good.

[Someone thinks he's scary, he's delighted.]

[leggymaru]

[oh bad he has pleased both chuuyas and that's cursed]

Please be gentle with everyone.

[goatsongs]

I don't know about that, but I can be gentle with you.

[...lewd]

[leggymaru]

I don't mind if you're rough with me, Chuuya-san. I can handle it.

[lewd

but he's also a sword so he doesn't even realize he's just being very earnest]

[goatsongs]

Oh, is that how you like it? Rough?

[this is straight up flirting on Chuuya's part now]

[leggymaru]

[wow, this sad hours took a right turn right into horny]

Ah... I spent a long time by my master's cushion. It was okay, being on display, but... I like being used and to be handled with confidence.

[CHUUYA, HE MEANS HE'S A SWORD]

[goatsongs]

You're lucky I'm not the kind of guy who'll flirt with you too much right after that bullshit went down.

[Just flirting with him the right amount, apparently.]

Check with me again next week and I'll handle you with confidence.

[leggymaru]

Okay. [He actually?? blushes a little? but not for the right reasons.] I'll find you next week.

[Hm.]

Chuuya-san, what is "flirt"?

[goatsongs]

[Ah. Hm.]

Express romantic and/or sexual interest in? Sort of like 'seduce' but seducing implies that you're good at it.

[leggymaru]

Oh... [He just accepts this?] Thank you.

[damb he only just now realizes that's what prompto had been doing the entire time wild]

[goatsongs]

[Better late than never??]

You're welcome. You can also hear 'coming onto someone' and 'hitting on someone', meaning the same thing.

[not literally hitting them, sorry sword]

[leggymaru]

[He murmurs both to himself, looking perplexed and then, just... accepting.]

Humans are... very strange. Sometimes, I wonder if I will ever be able to understand all of your phrases.

[goatsongs]

Like sword spirits aren't just as weird.

[leggymaru]

[WOW MEAN CHUUYA]

Are we...? I know there is a lot we don't understand...

[goatsongs]

[he just said it about humans??]

About the same as humans are weird, I figure.
