[No one's really noticed that Ookurikara has been gone for so long, and it was one of her regular visits to the Citadel to help them out. Saving the world is tough work!
So she walks past Ookurikara at first, greeting him quickly, before moving to his room to help tidy up.]
It will be your turn today!
[She says this before stepping in, already beginning to sort things out when she sees a strange book.]
[When he "returned", Ookurikara almost thought that he dreamed up that entire... outrageous situation. But how can his mind conjure up such a ridiculous city and culture?
But what cast doubt on that idea was when he discovered a certain magazine in his room. He would've thrown it away, especially after the other Date swords saw it. But... he couldn't bring himself to.
Not because he like the content! (Does he?) But it's like... proof that he went to that city. Or was it?
In any case, that is why he keep the book, regardless of the teasing he receive.
In the past, he would just walk on. However, he pause this time, as if to double take who he just saw.]
Sen...?
[Quickly, he turns around and returns back to his room. Only to see her finding a certain book...!!]
[She's oblivious, and have thought she had made her rounds with the swords efficiently. So she knows Ookurikara as well as she would've considered. He's a lone wolf, and she had often sorted his space. But she always wondered if he remembered who she was. He wasn't like the other Dategumis who would hold a conversation.
But there it was: a name on his lips that she thought she had hallucinated. No one really knew her name to be Sen. Perhaps he was saying someone else, her name had a similar version in Japanese.
Yet, as she starts to look at the magazine, she finds that there are pictures of her that she never seen before. Never remembered doing. Her mouth falls open as she feels the shock overtake her body.
When he enters, she looks up at him, eyes wide and speechless. Swallowing, she finally forces herself to say something.]
What is this...and how did you know my name?
[With this in front of her, she was convinced that he was speaking of her.]
[Oh. Oh no, she saw the pictures and now she's asking him. Asking questions he didn't want to answer. Not because of guilt or shame, but because of how ridiculous it would be if he say anything. Ookurikara stare at her, before he walk forward and try to snatch the magazine away from her hands.]
[She holds tight onto the magazine for now, looking around and noticing that they are alone. So she moves to quickly close the door before he can snatch the magazine and run.]
There, now we have a moment to ourselves, and no one to interrupt.
[This was too unusual to be interrupted. She turns back to him.]
Ookurikara...I've never been in such a situation, and I hardly reveal my human name because there has been no need. It's...not nothing. How did you...?
[She knows him. She knows the type of man/sword he is, from observing him. Surely he has an explanation for this? So she remains as patient as possible.]
[Kashuu had voiced that he really liked nail polish, and so she wanted to try to spoil him using her own precious polishes. She brought them along today, trying to find him as she saw him in his room, and knocked gently before entering.]
[Kashuu's just relaxing right now, since he's not on duty. Which means he can do whatever he feel like. Today? He feel like exploring and experimenting with his makeup. With the mirror in front of him and his makeup box open, he glances over when he hear a familiar voice.]

Oh? I never knew he liked reading magazines.

It's nothing.

No, because it's a waste of energy (he doesn't want to hurt her). And now she's asking questions.]
It's absolutely nothing and that book... is just a book.
[A gravure magazine, yet a physical proof of his... adventures. But would she even believe him?]
Just give it back to me?

Do you have time today, Kashuu?
arrives FASHIONABLY late
Oh, Vietnam, hey! I definitely have time today.
