( It's a pretty normal day at the citadel until news breaks out that the saniwa has managed to summon a new spirit. Depending on who you've heard the news from, you may or may not have the name. Or maybe you've heard that the newcomer is supposed to be a beautiful sword dressed in white. Or that he's an imperial sword or some other vague but specific piece of information. Either way, it should be easy to find a new face here, right?
Just follow the sounds of one (1) distressed sounding Konnosuke and you'll see the newest addition to your rag tag sword army. He's picked up Konnosuke and has him on his back in front of him, rubbing at his belly. Konnosuke squirms to get free. )
A little fox! You remind me of someone. ( Konnosuke squirms in his hands, trying to get free. ("Tsurumaru-san, please, let me go! I'm a pipe fox spirit, not a common fox!" The new spirit laughs,). ) And you really talk! What a surprise!
( And he looks up to see you, who's arrived to crash his fun, )
Yo~ ( He'd salute in greeting but his hands are a little full, ) Are you surprised to see someone like me?
( SET KONNOSUKE FREE )
Gold
( Some time has passed since Tsurumaru Kuninaga arrived at the citadel and most people are used to his character by now. It's a cool fall day and you're out in the garden for whatever reason. Most of the trees are losing their leaves and can be found in collected piles here and there. There's one particularly large pile and when you walk past it... )
Waah!
( Tsurumaru jumps up, throwing the leaves in the air and at you. Standing straight, hands on his hips and still covered in ginkgo leaves, )
Ahahaha! Are you surprised?
( He's so proud. )
Red
( Returning from a mission, Tsurumaru laughs casually as the Konnosukes scurry towards the squad. The last mission had some unexpected turns and what was supposed to be an easy scouting mission turned into an unexpected battle. Even if they were able to handle themselves, they'd still come back with injuries.
As they run their scan on the returning touken danshi, Tsurumaru holds out his arms, revealing sleeves speckled with red. )
What do you think?
( He shows them off to someone nearby-- either a squad mate or a concerned passerby or some other sword that was sent to check on them. And he gives a little turn to show the rest of him, revealing more blood on the back and hood. Konnosuke chides him to stay still because he's disrupting the scan. )
It's too bad.
( The battle had been too short and easy. It wasn't enough to achieve his #aesthetic. )
A little more and I would really look like a crane.
( "Stay still!" Konnosuke snaps again. )

Wouldn't you like to get to know Hizamaru better? (They have to set it up!!!) Over tea~?
no subject
[So if you can't surprise him, you'll make him your partner in crime.]
I don't know that Hizamaruwould accept an invitation from me that easily, though. He seems a little... wary, around me.
no subject
( Everyone gives in eventually. He believes in you, Mikazuki. )
no subject
[He is seriously considering this, can you tell.]
Maybe I should just invite Higekiri, then Hizamaru will come along.
[After all everyone knows Higekiri and Mikazuki get along. Much better than you would expect, really.]
He is such a good little brother.
1/2
Heh.
The history of swords sure is an interesting thing. Well, he won't spoil the mood with comments like that. )
no subject
( He's not complaining. )
I'll have to plan more to surprise you, now!
no subject
[Why is this somehow your life goal, Tsurumaru? Mikazuki can't say he doesn't enjoy watching you try, but it's still such a strange thing to want to do in his opinion.
But,well, it keeps you occupied and mostly out of bigger trouble, so it's fine.]
You were even getting cold all on your own in that leaf pile? What if you get sick? That wouldn't be much fun now, would it?
no subject
( It's like a challenge. And challenges, like surprises, are necessary in life.
Waving a hand dismissively in the air as he helps himself to some more sweets now, )
I'm always a little cold. ( Is that a joke. It sure is. A low key dark one. ) It's nothing I can't handle. It'll take more than a little cold to make me sick.
( He is, after all, symbol of good health. )
no subject
[But he will frown a little at that. Being cold is not fun, Tsuru. Let him finally unbury himself from your cloak so he can wrap it around you instead.]
Did you have chores today?
[Because if you did, you certainly were not doing them. Unless the chore was to cover the courtyard in dead leaves and somehow Mikazuki doubts that.]
no subject
But wow, don't get all responsible and him suddenly. )
The laundry with Honebami and Kashuu. ( And sure enough! There are some freshly washed sheets hanging out to dry not too far off. Hmm, he should probably bring those in, though. ) And tomorrow, the fields.
( And he makes a face because... fieldwork and horse duty are probably his least favorite given how dirty those are. )
no subject
[Tsurumaru is notorious for not liking field and horse duty indeed. Mikazuki doesn't mind those, it's mostly that he's pretty useless when doing them.... or is he? He never seems to be doing much of anything when he is assigned something, in any case.]
Maa, maa, you will do fine. Besides, doesn't Shokudaikiri Mitsutada like it when you bring some fresh vegetables from the garden?
