(a courtesan delivered hot and fresh for @yugenronin )

Sakura couldn't help but tilt his head just a bit, listening to the okaasan of the teahouse speak to him. "SO I don't… have to sleep with him?" He was confused. The way they had spirited the young oiran away he was quite sure that the power of choice, one that they had given him with his position, had been stripped from him. He was young and just walking into his position as a top courtesan, but his price and his stature, given from his christening and the amount that was bid for his innocence, gave him quite a bit of leeway. Either way, the kagema had never been so eagerly thrust before someone as he was today.

"You are more than just our flower, Sakura, but you are an entertainer, and if there as ever a time for us to use your charms to bring coin to the teahouse it is now. Entertain this lord, capture him in your charms, Sakura. You are not required to sleep with him if you do not wish, you have so much at your disposal just keep him company as long as you can…"

Ah…it must be quite an important daimyo for the okaasan to be so adamant. He simply nodded, turning to his mirror to set to work. Makeup. Hair, and his best kimono, soft and dazzling. Strange that it was not rushed, but it must've been arranged early on and the okaasan just wanted to make sure the teahouse put its best foot forward.

So while everything was set in the room for the guest he took a few deep breaths until he was called, a bell rung near his door to tell him that his guest was ready.

…horns. Ah… no wonder the okaasan was so adamant about such a thing. Daimyo came and went in the red light district without much fuss… But a demon lord….

Sakura smiled softly, nearly floating to position in front of the admittedly handsome oni and knelt, bowing in deference. "Oiyedasu… I am Sakura, your entertainment, and companion for the evening. Shall I pour you a drink, or perhaps play for you?"

I was a little shy about saying hello but I can't let your Ganyu think nobody would want to be her type! I know we haven't talked at all but my girl Tamami @carnage-blossom says "Hello~"

"As expected, our bro-relationship is top tier."

"...He's going to get embarrassed about this, isn't he?" Poor guy.

The war had been... bloody to say the least.

Armies of all species uniting after things had gone south with negotiations regarding Nobunaga's surrender, ending in the entire decimation of his army and his family. Many had perished, vampire, werewolf, and oni alike. Some of the Lords had been hurt as well and as they sat in formal clothing in the aftermath of this and a celebration for the Lord and Lady of Kai's wedding, it felt like a nightmare that had gone to a dream, and yet the reality that times were still unsteady was heavy amidst the atmosphere.

The after party had been welcome to all of the remaining armies so long as it remained a time of peace. Many were covered in recovering wounds and wrapped in bandages, but it would be rude not to welcome a new Lady as it were. Chiharu looked and felt the most beautiful she had in her entire life, happy to have her now husband home and the hope they'd be able to have a peaceful life together even if it meant still fighting the undead and what not.

While many danced and drank or toasted to the new couple, some remained sitting and calm such as Ophelia who watched over Noe as he chased after Masazumi, Masanobu's son, seated beneath one of the trees with a tired smile on her face as usual.

Sakura was enjoying her warm sake, a bandage on her cheek and wrapped around her right arm from a nasty injury she received, but didn't seem to mind about.

Hajime had come down from the Shrine to find a single person, dressed as best as he could get to honor the wedding ceremony, slipping in and about the people -- happy she was alive but having not really seen much of her since she returned -- only letters were her call mark.

As it was, everyone was happy in this blissful dream for now, and Chiharu, happy for her friends as it were was starting to feel the atmosphere a bit overwhelming if just a bit -- and yet she couldn't say no to a afterparty and end it quite yet... so she waited for now, still dressed to the nine in her beautiful wedding kimono, joined every now and then by one of the Lords or Ladies, but mostly keeping to herself or Sakura... and yet Shingen was never far from her sight.

Speaking of which, what was everyone up too right now?

[melatoninburst]

"Kitkat, you're the best, I will give you..." She pauses, thinking of what to give him. "Anything I can put on a will, I guess? I dunno, either way, I forfeit all my mortal posessions to Katsuie." Her poor figure collection may take a hit but alas, Katsuie is her bro and he can have anything from her.

She sits and begins to eat, praising Katsuie and Shingen in her mind for this, as some food could likely do her brain some good, and her stomach surely isn't complaining either. Even if the options weren't the most grand, Shanice didn't care, food is food and if the food tastes good, that's all that matters to her.

Her head moves up when she hears Shingen speak, nodding in agreement to his assessment about Chikage and how he didn't stock up. It would make the most sense if he didn't, thinking he's the only one who'd be there anyway, nobody else but Chikage even came here for a while.

"Makes sense, good job either way, though." She replies, before he poses his next question and she hears a hint of something in his voice. She immediately jumps to it being suspicion. It'd only make sense

She figured as much, she isn't exactly non suspicous, given one, Nobunaga certainly didn't like her enough to personally join her, even if this trip was likely the norm for a wife to be of someone as important as Mitsuhide, Nobunaga technically, probably didn't have any obligations to come- nor would Katsuie, assuming the trip would normally be left to the couple.

There's also the fact Shingen had wanted to talk to Shanice personally at that one point, asking her questions, that while she answered, weren't entirely note worthy answers; she didn't give away much of anything, likely leaving more questions than answers, even if she doubts he sees her as a threat. She clearly gave him every reason to be slightly suspect of her, but she'll hopefully clear the air later when- if she comes clean.

"It was nice," She says. "Lovely architecture, nice vibes, everything was cool. I loved it."

Now, if she and Mitsuhide had to have pretended to have an engagement out of love, she'd have likely had to comment on it being a romantic scene and atmosphere which, even she'd find weird coming from her. She's not a romantic unless she's trying to wing woman, and she's sure if she said something like that, even Shingen who barely knows her would think she got hit on the head with a blunt object.

"How were you guys while we were gone? Getting along, I'd hope."

Mitsuhide, too, had forgotten he was holding Shanice's hand until it was time to eat. Fortunately for his sanity, Katsuie either did not notice or declined to comment. He murmured a quiet thanks toward his comrade and ... friend ... before sitting down and beginning to eat. Katsuie was a good person despite how often he exhausted Mitsuhide's energy just by entering the room. In the end, he found himself glad Katsuie came with them. Just the sort of person one might need to keep Shanice mostly enjoying the journey, however taxing the travel might get.

The redheaded vampire was immensely proud of himself for having had a hand in producing a good looking meal out of such meager options, grinning from ear to pointed ear as Shanice ruffled his hair. But as if on cue, Shingen entered the room, causing Katsuie and Mitsuhide to shift a little and make more room for him to sit down.

"It would have been easier if Chikage restocked this place better but I guess he wouldn't if he was leaving, since no one else lives here," Shingen commented with a sigh, having overheard Shanice's thank you.

He flopped down onto the ground, watching them all for a moment before speaking again.

"How was touring the shrine? What did you think?"

Something lingered beneath his curious, cheerful tone. Tiredness? Suspicion? Perhaps a mix of both. Regardless, his posture remained relaxed as he started eating. It had been a long day and he looked forward to the meal. No matter how humble it may be.

“I’ll tell Hijikata-san you’re, um, occupied. H-have a good day, captain!” 

So my hand slipped....

@yugenronin wrote a drabble featuring our boys and the scene at the end, where a poor rank-and-file soldier tries to come collect the captain was so funny I was inspired to draw the scene from his point of view!

You're the best sweetie I love our boys so much.

When he explains that there was no one else around, Flora's eyes widen as she glances around the area. It was true that the area was vacant but Flora just figured the other person ran off instead of trying to save her - they seemed like they were in a rush. So it was strange to her that he said he hadn't seen anyone else around and the fact he said he'd been watching the fish for a while - she didn't recognize him before she fell in. Looking back up at him, she opens her mouth to speak.

"A-Are you sure no one else was here?" It all had happened so fast before she knew it, but surely she wasn't that disoriented to get the details wrong. But after he mentions where she was staying, she nods her head, "I-I was visiting for a nearby festival and decided to come to the temple. I wanted to see everything this town had to offer..."

Clutching at the jacket with her hand, she carefully pulls herself up with the other on trembling legs. Hopefully, she'd have enough strength to get back. Flashing him a weak smile, she decides to introduce herself, as well.

"T-Thank you for saving me, Mister Yoshitsugu. My name is Flora Alexandria."

daydreamiist​:

Strong arms wrap around her frail body and she is finally pulled out of the water. Her lungs burn as air reaches them again but the persons voice draws her back out of her shocked state. Harsh coughs wreck her whole body as her fists cling to his clothes. Slowly she starts to calm down with the realization that she is okay and the comfort from the person who saved her. Blue orbs crack open as she looks up at him, mouth opening to speak but her voice is rough from having been under the water.

“T-Thank you.. I-I was knocked into the water when someone ran by. I don’t know if they noticed.” Her wet clothes cling to her skin and the air around her sends a shiver down her spine. The water was cool so the air makes her skin feel like pinpricks. Finally her eyes properly adjust as she looks up at his face then she looks down at the uniform he is wearing.

“A-Are you a soldier? I’m so sorry for getting you wet.” She moves a little to try and not get anymore water on him but not enough to knock her over since she is still weak from nearly drowning.

Gently rubbing her back as she finishing spitting out the water in her mouth, he took off his mildly damp military jacket and draped it over her with a faint smile. He had no idea how to reassure her, and her clothes were strange to him. It resembled nothing Otani had ever seen before. 

“No need to apologize, but there is no one else here…” Otani murmured, looking at the empty temple. As far as he could remember, no one ran by the pond. “I’ve been watching the fish for a while now, I would hope I would have noticed.” 

Standing up, he held out his hand to offer her assistance. As confused as he felt, he imagined she likely had it worse. 

“Are you a foreigner, miss? Is there somewhere you’re staying?”

Given her situation, he couldn’t very well leave her on her own. He felt obligated to at least walk her back to her residence or buy her some tea to warm her up. Only then did it dawn on him that he failed to introduce himself. Not wanting to be rude, he decided to give her his name and official confirmation that yes, he was a soldier.

“My name is Otani Yoshitsugu, I am a soldier in the Imperial Army’s 1st Division.”

Nagahide for Grumpy x Sunshine

“I was perfectly content just the way I was,” Nagahide states this plainly, veiling the painful memories of before he met Souji.

“I didn’t want you to get involved, to show me your kindness. But you did anyway. Good thing you’re so persistent.”

@yugenronin

It was cold and raining, not quite spring, but it was only a matter of time before it truly began. He was content holding the tea in his hands, staring out at the curtain of grey, relishing how the rain seemed to shield the already secluded temple from the outside world.

I was perfectly content the way I was.

Souji turned to Nagahide, his green eyes watching the same grey sky, and perhaps a bit beyond it. Where... did this even come from? He was quiet but tilted his head gently. But the more he talked the more Souji could do nothing but smile. "I... I am persistent, but so were you..." he said softly. He was the one who was adamant about protecting Souji from the one person he couldn't defend himself from...

[melatoninburst]

👫 for Shanice and Katsuie or Mitsuhide, whoever you think will be more fun for you!

Headcanons: accepting

Katsuie:

Shanice would definitely be the type to let Katsuie have a sleepover, only the sleepover just slowly turns into him living in her house. She'd have no problems letting him crash at her place every night and would even suggest that he moved in so they could hang out even more. Shanice and Katsuie upon having the portal open up could go out drinking together and he would get to try more modern drinks including fishbowls, since she's positive he'd adore those. I do think however, she would have to be sure to stay somewhat sober in case chaos involving timey-worldly issues occurs.

Katsuie is one of her favorite people, she's not shy in showing that- she will even tell him that, if she's sure it wouldn't make him cry ( it probably would though ) but because of this, she spoils him whenever she can and always has all the time in the world for him. Katsuie wants to do anything with her? She's agreeing without knowing what it is. She also bakes him things a lot, I think.

I think despite him being twice her size and incredibly strong due to him being a warrior and a vampire vampire, once the training begins, Shanice will mostly go to Katsuie for it, since she wants to be able to learn from someone who normally handles this kind or thing, who she trusts and who's strength she can admire.

Mitsuhide:

If the portal between worlds opens up, I can see Shanice taking Mitsuhide to book stores to peruse and pick out whatever he wants to read from time to time, because she knows books in his world have to be hand transcribed so she wants him to have easier access to them.

Mitsuhide's quiet personality vs Shanice's need to constantly ask him questions about himself and his interests is a bit of a surprise for him, I think- especially since she will listen to him very closely. Still, I think Shanice gets that he is a more quiet person so she doesn't overload him in that sense, she simply likes hearing him talk about himself.

If she ever hears someone call him a traitor, she will immediately defend him, not caring if the other person is armed to the teeth or not. That's her bro, her boy, she's not letting this slander exist around her. She also keeps the knowledge that people think of him that way to herself, since she doesn't think he wants her to know people call him that.

While Shanice doesn't really drink or like tea as much as coffee, I think she'd gladly drink any tea Mitsuhide makes her since she is genuinely interested in how he manages to make the same tea taste different by steeping times and all- and she does want him to feel more comfortable with showing his hobbies to others.

yugenronin:

Motochika waited until they could no longer see or hear Mouri’s army. The wretched, disgusting behavior the other lord had shown was more than Motochika was used to. While they never got along, Mouri Motonari had not always been so… unpleasant.

“Sorry, about him. Knew we’d run into ‘im at some point and that it wasn’t somethin’ I’d call fun, but he’s gotten worse since the last time we talked. Doin’ okay?” He knew Hasumi was tough. But that didn’t mean being treated in such a way by Motonari wouldn’t bother her. Nor did she need to keep it to herself if it did, especially now that they were far enough away where their words were of little consequence. “Just so ya know, Hasumi, if I know I have a meetin’ with him again, it is fine to say ya don’t want to go. There are so many things that need to be done around Tosa, we can work around it if ya never want to see him again.” The last thing he wanted was to force her to sit there and tolerate the insults of someone who clearly made her uncomfortable. It wasn’t like she couldn’t be useful elsewhere.

Hasumi's ears pinned against her head as Motochika joined her, heaving a heavy sigh, her chest rising and falling. "... I can't not show my face if i'm to join you and your retinue, my lord." She points out. "I... He caught me off-guard and it... frustrates me that it did." She admits. "... I need to become stronger and be able to guard my emotions closely so... that unsightly sight of myself doesn't happen again." She grits her fangs a bit before turning to look over at him.

Her eyes lightly dance with a sad emotion -- mostly depression and frustration, but if not a bit of humiliation. "... On top of that, I must have made you look bad as well..." Her gaze trails away then, ears now drooping instead.

@yugenronin - Starter from Ayaka to uesugi

;;~ The morning dew glimmered on the swaying grass around Inazuma  At this Start of the morning, a certain Female was standing outside of the Komore teahouse, Ayaka was just allowing Toratarou, the small and lovable shiba inu, Out streach for a bit as the lady held the fan up to her face in a elegant like manner and began to hum her song softly.

 Inazuma’s morning was a bit quiet at this time. With Thoma asleep and the others resting, Ayaka found it to be the time to take a small walk with Komore’s mascot and relax.

However there was a bit of commotion over by middle of the walkway. A woman older than she, was crying for someone to help her, Ayaka could not find herself to leave this be and instead approached her with a kind demeanor asking her what was the matter. 

It was at this time that Kamaisato learned the woman was in a panicked frenzy because her daughter had left the village to pick berries but she was supposed to be back by now.

Though she had heard some merchants commenting about how dangerous the paths were as a group of Hillchirls ended up taking it over and attacked anyone who dared passed their territory. This of course caused the mother to go into a panicked frenzy. 

Ayaka , soothed her softly before placing her hand to her breast plate and smiled. “I shall go find her , with me by her side there shall be nothing to fear.” She smiled before deciding to tell no one where she was going. 

Technically the daughter of the Kamisato clan wasn’t exactly supposed to deal with such harsh Affairs, but she wasn’t the type of woman to just abandon someone in need either. Taking her blade in hand, Ayaka made her way over to the location the local merchants had appointed her too. 

She began to ducked down slight observing the bunch from afar, though that's when she noticed the young girl trapped in a wooded like cage.  Crying and trying to avoid upsetting the Mitchirll who sat behind her. Though the area was a bit.. strange to say the least.” 

 The occasional sounds of hilichurls that cackled echoed from the distance, but in the middle of them was something, not even the brave, misunderstood lady herself could believe what she was seeing.

There in a small distance from her, A Ring of fire glowing in a purple and menacing hue. The hilichurl's dance around it like it was their god or something. Though that was not the only strange thing.  

This camp wasn't like any of the others. No huts, no point made fences. not even a pot on a campfire or boxes with the goods inside of them.  instead, around it was a strange purple mist that engulfed the area like an ominous void.

Ayaka watched this strange behavior, before slowly and quietly approaching to open the cage the girl was locked it. 

The girl of course squealed with glee before Ayaka tried to hush her . “Your mother is waiting for you at the village, run home quickly.” 

She commented this out before she noticed the child’s expression change., only to find a surprise sneak up behind her. For when she slowly turned around there was a large Mitachurl towering over her. It's hand now lifted as the shield it held was held high, it now aimed for her in a swift motion. 

“GO!” She yelled out pushing the girl out of the way. as the child now picked up her feet and ran. 

The Clans heir of course had very little time to react before being thrown forward to the ground with its swing. Her figure had landed into the purple mist as she found it flood over her like a trap. As the vision user was being swallowed by a blackish void.

Confused Ayaka felt her vision blacking out on her as she began to groan in frustration, "I ...will ... not be defeated by this..." Before falling to the ground  her vision now completely blacking out. Now a bright light flashed in the area/ before the lady disappeared without a trace.

When she came too though, her head was hurting a bit as she noticed a ceiling above her, As well as that she herself was laying on something soft. lifting up her hand she now took a glance at it before asking out.

".. Where am I?"
