Memorable Moments

[Yukikaze no Kasumi]

Later...

Dressed casually, Hirame stepped out into the common room, brushing a hand across his face, wiping the sleep from his eyes. "Mblergh." He mumbled. Yes, it was definitely time to get a start on the morning. A bit of breakfast, maybe some strong tea, that's what he needed...

Glancing around, Hirame frowned. Something was wrong. He could feel a strange tingle running up his spine. Hirame's lips pressed together as the uncanny feeling grew stronger. Something was out of place. Something missing...

That damn doll. Where was it?

"Oh shit." Hirame said through clenched teeth. Damnit, why hadn't he thrown that thing in the fire the night before? He'd said it looked like something that might murder people. And Natsuko had told him about how spirits could enter objects, and make them come alive! Were murder dolls real after all? "Shit shit shit." He muttered under his breath.

He dove back into his room.

A moment later, and Hirame emerged once more, a solid wooden oar gripped in both hands. He creeped cautiously around the common room, nudging furniture with one foot. The oar was raised, ready to smash anything he found.

Oars do make a fearsome weapon!

Turns out Kasumi's not above a little gaslighting

Thus, by the time command of the skirmishing ashigaru was passed to her, the game was already pretty hopelessly lost. When she called out to her own pieces, 'you are already dead, prepare accordingly," they had honestly stopped being surprised.

ALL HAIL GENERAL NATSUKO!

Who did that?!

I AM SO GOOD AT THIS! I AMA GENIUS! THEY SHOULD MAKE ME A NAKODO!

Kasumi is a blessing

When this...

"Well, this Mantis womanfolk sorta... picked it up."

She grinned sidelong at the Crane.

"He'd left it in th'common room, an' it was so... awful, I kinda had t'pick it up. I came back out an' he had an oar out like he was gonna bash somethin'. Told me t'look out for it. So."

She turned to add a little yellow for the sand at the water's edge.

"If y'want t'borrow it t'terrify him with, lemme know."

leads to this...

Well! Hirame couldn't call this day fun. But it had certainly been productive. There was an energetic spring to his step as he stepped into the shared lodgings.

Sure, he hadn't done great at the test, but he hadn't expected to. What mattered is that he was learning. Yes, definitely getting better at things, Hirame thought as he slid open the door to his room. He'd learned something about patience, and calm-

What the everloving FUCK?!?!

From outside the room, listeners might hear a wordless exclamation, clearly startled. Then a brief patter of footsteps, followed by a series of very heavy thumps.

I can only applaud my fellow Mantis for playing along with the horror my character has inflicted upon his.

I'm just going to keep tossing this ship in here because it's adorable and hilarious, just like young love should be. http://kiku.fallenash.com/viewtopic.php?p=9449#p9449

The moment goes on..and on. Rin appears to be smiling dreamily without knowing it, it's possible that most active thought has started to cease.

"Mmmhm....hhm mmh hmmm."
She adds, apparently considering that a full sentence.

Without really thinking
"Yah know...you smell real nice."

Somewhere at the back of Rin's mind a voice starts yelling that that's hardly the sort of thing you say in public, but the Sparrow seems so caught up in the moment that the voice is render incapable.

The fabulous player of Rin is not just great at adorable young love, though. They are well-skilled in the art of comedy as well.

[Funegao no Hirame]

There was a slender figure waiting in the room of Nekoma Shuichi. On a table, on the very edge of it, just begging to be pushed off, was a package, wrapped in fine silk.

The figure looked out of the window of the room, their dark hair pulled back to a long ponytail, a simple ribbon holding it up. Their arms across their chest, just patiently waiting.
