[ grune's genji energy continues to amaze and astound. anyways, he's probably just wandering so they can get lost together I suppose ]

Grune-san, good evening....

[warmness]

Are you going anywhere in particular?

[ somewhere that isn't bloody as hell, perhaps? anywhere? ]

[daifukus]

Mm, not at the moment.

[ he's been trying to clear his head and keeps?? finding blood instead??? this place is the worst ]

[warmness]

Let's go find a nice spot then, okay?

[ somewhere without blood trails

maybe ]

[daifukus]

Mm....

[ he'll just follow if grune leads. sad spear is Sad ): ]

[warmness]

[ yeah, she'll lead.

she's taking them to the deck because no one died there this week. ]

[daifukus]

[ fresh air is always a Good Thing. he'll just wander over to the railing, listlessly staring out into the darkness ]

[warmness]

[ that's fine? grune loves the ocean so she's pretty content with just standing there.

but eventually, ]

Are you alright?

[daifukus]

Mm.

[ that sure is an answer ]

I feel as I should have done more.

[warmness]

You're probably doing as much as you can.

[daifukus]

It certainly does not feel it.

[ perhaps it's just the guilt but there must have been more he could have done? something that could have protected Izuminokami from this fate?



What is he going to tell aruji ?]

[warmness]

Mm... no, it never feels like it, does it?

[ everyone always blames themselves. ]

We'll figure things out.

[daifukus]

I hope so.

[ there's certainly a dark note in his voice he tries not to focus on too much. bringing peace to Izuminokami is the most important part of tomorrow, but he won't have to like it ]

I can only keep striving forward but........

[ tonight is for mourning ]

[warmness]

Mm.

[ there's a pause, before she reaches over to take his hand ]

[daifukus]

[ if the breath he releases is shaky, no one else will ever have to know. he grips back tightly, mindful of his strength. ]

[warmness]

[ that's fine, grune just smiles. ]

Is there anything you'd like to do?

[daifukus]

[ grune is truly the best right now ]

I.... don't know?

[ he honestly sounds a little lost.

Izuminokami was not the closest sword to him nor was this the first time he has dealt with death related to him but for some reason, the Very Human Emotions he's experiencing right now is overwhelming. ]

[warmness]

Hm... well, we can figure out something to occupy our time! Napping is always good, or...

[ she's thinking ]

[daifukus]

[ he breathes out a laugh. grune and her naps ]

I fear I am in no condition to rest at the present.

[ unless she wants to just lay on him so he can't roll around and change positions 2000 times in three minutes ]

[warmness]

[ honestly, she would do that ]

Then... hm, a drink?

[daifukus]

[ just hang on his shoulder like a cape until it happens. he probably needs it ]

......Yes, I suppose we can do that.

[ come to the pool bar with him, grune ]

[warmness]

[ if there is one thing grune learned here besides questionable phrases, it's that a lot of people here sure do love alcohol

but onward to the bar. ]

[daifukus]

[ sometimes a spirit just needs some spirits. but he'll pour something for the both of them? he can do that much at least. ]

My apologies....... I fear I am not good company tonight.

[warmness]

Oh, you're fine. Don't worry about it.

[ she assumes he must have been friends?? with one of them??

she will never learn they're swords ]

[daifukus]

Mm.

[ he's glad for the company at least.

and I, personally, hope she gets to endgame without ever finding out ]
