and so the dummy duo ~conveniently~ runs into everyone's favorite divine healing sword, who gives them a courteous nod. for a sword who's just come back from dispatch, he seems fairly unruffled, putting him in a pretty agreeable mood. ]
Ah. Tsurumaru-san, Nikkari-san—
[ he's about to keep going about making pleasantries as one does, but is momentarily given pause by the way the other two swords are holding hands.
but then he decides to Move On specifically because it's these two. ]
. . . Are the both of you, ah, headed anywhere in particular?
[ you let this thread happen you gotta accept all the consequences
ah, perfect. nikkari, unflappable as ever, flashes a sly grin at ishi, tone playful in a way that should tell the oodachi that something is Definitely up. ]
Not at all, Ishikirimaru-san, unless you find anything amiss with us simply taking a stroll on the citadel grounds.
[ here he looks over to tsuru, hesitating briefly... before lightly squeezing his "partner"'s hand. ]
but tsuru blinks, but the short moment of pause is quickly replaced by a large smile and a laugh. ]
He said he's going to surprise me.
[ it's said in a fond tone, one that can be easily thought to be fondness directed at nikkari. it's like, actually for a surprise, but ishi doesn't need? to know that? ]
[ he casts a dubious look at the two before shaking his head with a weak laugh. he really does not want to ask, at least not right now. he suddenly feels very fatigued from the mission, actually, let him rest? ]
Well, it would be quite rude of me to keep the two of you, wouldn't it? I do hope you enjoy yourselves, whatever the... "surprise" may be. Just, ah... try not to cause any trouble.
Haha... do we really seem like troublemakers to you? A holy sword shouldn't be making such rude accusations, you know.
[ there's a glint in nikkari's visible eye that probably makes ishi want to wholeheartedly agree with that quip, but he bites his tongue; in response, nikkari laughs teasingly before turning back to tsuru. ]
Let's not trouble Ishikirimaru-san any longer... Tsuru-san.
[ he flashes an amused grin at tsuru. does using a nickname so suddenly count as a tiny surprise? ]
ishi simply nods and continues on his way to do whatever the fuck he was doing do you think i put that much thought into this gag. nikkari waits until he's far out of sight and earshot, then brings his free hand up to cover his mouth and hide his mischievous expression. it's more out of habit than anything, though, because he knows tsuru Understands. ]
Hm... the Toushirou brothers would certainly believe us and tell everybody, Midare-kun especially, but that seems a little unfair. Maybe even a little cruel?
I know just where to find one. [ of course he does. he reaches for tsuru's hand ] Come, Tsuru-san.
[ and off they go! nikkari marches the both of them confidently through the citadel, very much a Sword on a Mission. some of the others see them as they pass through the halls, but if they have anything to say, they just keep it to themselves; there is a high chance of bullshit with these two specifically and no one wants to deal with that right now.
soon, they reach one of the common rooms used for leisure when they aren't on any missions, and... as soon as the sliding door is thrown open, tsuru will find that nikkari has disappeared from his side?? if he looks straight ahead, he'll see that the wakizashi is somehow already snug under the covers of the kotatsu, heater on and blankets toasty. ]

Hahaha. Charming as ever.

[ he'd prefer to deal with another sword first before running into their saniwa, so hopefully they can manage that. ]

We have a very busy day ahead of us. We'll see you later then?

Of all people... poor Ishikirimaru-san.
no subject
well he just rolls with that comment. ]
Ah, well, it's good to get someone you speak to often right away. It'll make it more believable when other people hear.
no subject
It isn't as if he's the type to gossip or spread rumors, though... that would certainly add an element of drama to the scenario we're crafting.
no subject
[ hm
ah well. ]
We'll see how it goes!

no subject
[ tsuru is too used to playing practical jokes on people ]
haha hey guess who
[ ANYWAY. it's fine. nikkari can be an asshole too, so he can't really judge, when he sits down to think about it... ]
So, did you have anything in mind for this "busy day" we're to be having, or were you just trying to get Ishikirimaru-san to move on?
no subject
[ he taps his chin thoughtfully. ]
What do romantic couples normally do?
(you voice) if anyone would like to do anything with tsuru
[ it's said in the exact same cadence and tone that tsuru uses. ]
Thinking about it now, the concept of a "date" is rather vague, isn't it...
stop
[ ha ha! ]
We should do something that we enjoy but is also romantic?
no subject
Napping under a kotatsu.
no subject
[ no ]
no subject
What a wonderfully warm idea.
[ it's just the heater he's looking for lbr ]
no subject
[ there is nothing romantic about that, the only correlation is the warmth ]
no subject
Haha... we really do have more in common than I initially thought.

[ there are many other ideas they can come up with but he seems to be immediately on board with this one. ]
