[pushpin]

well now its gonna bug me
whats a matter, u pussyfootin ?

[yeah don't think you're getting away with that.]

[swordhardy]

( w o w )

It's not like I'm dying to know, but okay

You ask everyone this kind of stuff?

[pushpin]

huh ?
whatcha mean

[...doesn't want to make a weird assumption and get it completely wrong; he's had enough embarrassment for one night]

[swordhardy]

( apparently not, he asked for this!!! )

What I said

You ask everyone questions like this? You asked a lot before, too

[pushpin]

ur asking if ur somehow special ?

[look, he will absolutely try to turn the embarrassment on Rokurou... not that it'll be very effective, probably....]

[swordhardy]

No, just what I asked before

( it's a valiant effort.... )

[pushpin]

[the sudden care with which he tries to choose his words might be palpable, words tentative, as if he's trying not to give something away -- but he's not much of a liar or a politician]

there are a lot of people here from a lot of different places
i get curious

[except he hasn't asked Rokurou much about his world, has he?]

ur not like most of em
idk if its bcoz ur..... not human anymore or what but
i felt like it woulda been the same then too

[swordhardy]

Yeah?

Well, it's not like I mind you being curious or anything

You're a funny guy, beansprout

[pushpin]

ok 1st a all why the fuck am i funny
2nd a all dont call me that

[swordhardy]

It's not a bad thing. Other people usually avoid asking me questions

What should I call you then?

[pushpin]

bcoz theyre afraid a u ?

my name ???

[swordhardy]

That's probably one reason

Guanshan??

[pushpin]

[it's a pretty good motivator for him, but... Rokurou's over there, and he's over here. safe.]

bcoz ur a fuckin meathead ??

& thaaaats my first name

[swordhardy]

Youuuuu'd have to ask them, not me. I'm just the innocent daemon

What's it mean?

[pushpin]

well whatever
guess its my job now to make sure u get heard

uh
close mountain
not close as in nearby but close as in shut

[swordhardy]

So....... you're going to ask me about swords then?

Really? That's kind of cool

[pushpin]

didnt i already

..........it is ?

[swordhardy]

You asked about fighting. Swords are different!

Sure. I think so, anyway

[pushpin]

if i ask u about swords can u just
get it outta ur system so we never gotta talk about it ever again

i guess
what does rangetsu mean ?

[swordhardy]

Nnnnno. That's impossible, it'll never be out of my system

Rangetsu? Seventh lunar month. Rokurou means sixth son

[pushpin]

then i aint askin !
oh that reminds me
did u talk to any of em ? the sword guys here
we got more now

ur whole family is jus named after a month ?
any reason
why

[swordhardy]

Yeah I have! There are more now? Amazing, they're the best

That's just how it is? I never really thought about it. Not like I picked it

[pushpin]

theyre weird
idk it pisses me off sometimes
r u gonna use 1 of em ? i been up close w/ hasebe
w/....the actual blade i mean but hes the only 1

oh
i thought maybe somethin important happened that month
i guess its still better than mine, its just literally " dont " lol

[swordhardy]

I don't know. If they'd let me train with them, sure, but... from what I understand the sword's their vessel. Not sure I'd want to risk breaking it. Hasebe, huh? Mm, he's pretty... well. He's probably who I know best too

Well " don't " is more interesting than " sixth "

[pushpin]

souza might
hes wreckless
& probly wants broken anyway
but could u ? knowin theyre actually spirits or whatever & not just things
tools
if u did break 1 of em uve got that on ur head

guess so
maybe if we get married after all we can just combine em
mogetsu...... the month of dont
