[ Is that Mikazuki... are we killing Dana...

The memory ends and Hanako nearly falls flat on his face following through with one last slash, frustration giving way all too easily to confusion. ]


Wha—

[ Where did he go?? let him stab ]

[ Lies on the ground and stares up at the sky ]

I bet I could've beaten him... What was that about? You were hunting down a traitor?
hanaban: (197)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-17 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... I kinda get that.

[ Hanako's the same way, just sort of charges ahead fully believing he's got all the answers ]

Did you beat him up?
hanaban: (075)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-19 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
[ Mikazuki looks at him funny and Hanako immediately draws out his knife, you're right ]

Too bad I wasn't there with you. I would've—-

[ done. something. perhaps, if a comic panel hadn't dropped in between them in this very moment. Hope Kogitsunemaru has a high pain tolerance. ]

[ ouch... ow... reexperiencing this memory doesn't get easier no matter how many times he runs across it. Hanako's just going to lie here on the ground for a second. ]

Ugh... Against anybody else, maybe. That guy's an exorcist, with a spirit blade that can destroy souls. That really was a close one...

[ he almost died!!! on like chapter 10 ]
hanaban: (091)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-19 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
They sure do! I guess even without the electricity and spirit force, a sword's pretty dangerous.

[ If it were just a plain sword, he think he'd be fine. He's got a knife, he's like a fighty little tanto who excels in close combat. ]
hanaban: (170)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-19 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
My knife?

[ He pats his chest like that's supposed to do something. And it would have, usually, but of course nothing comes out. ]

I can't summon my knife in this place, so I'm just using what they have here. It works well enough, I guess.
hanaban: (058)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-23 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Haha... I think most people would be beside themselves if they showed up as just their souls.

[ Hanako too, but like. the overjoyed sort of "beside themselves". why does he have his body? this weak mortal coil ]
hanaban: (330)

w5, saturday

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ he's here to visit his kon kon ]

Has enough time passed...?
hanaban: (262)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
But you can't do it in here! That's so unfair...!

[ rattles Kogi's jail cell bars ]
hanaban: (330)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 01:50 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. And they're too close together for me to slip through... I've tried.

[ multiple times, with multiple murderers ]

Did they confiscate your... body? sword?
hanaban: (081)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ he figured, but it still sucks. like being here for a month+ and still missing his favorite kitchen knife ]

Are you leaving it to one of your teammates to look after?
hanaban: (029)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
The others...? Like, people's weapons?

[ or all those other swords involved in this case, why were there so many swords, how come hanako doesn't get a cool sword ]
hanaban: (149)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Oh.

[ the rest of the dead, who Nico believes is coming back tomorrow(?) or sometime soon, at least ]

...As long as you're remembered, you won't disappear. Will you give Mika and Chiemi a hug for me when you see them?
hanaban: (201)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
[ Kogi dies and the graveyard ceases to exist ): ]

Thanks.

[ he mirrors that small, tired smile ]

I don't really know what to say to them... If you still have your hero powers over there, I bet they'd love your Kon Kon.
hanaban: (252)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ he touches a hand to his chest, briefly, but his heart is an ugly thing, full of sorrows and regrets

... he pulls his hand back, and makes konkon hands in return ]


I'll be counting on you. Will you be okay tomorrow? It'll be another fight to the death.

[ pleading, just a little. Kogi doesn't have to lose. ]
hanaban: (074)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ help, I'm praying for Nico ]

You could turn into a fox... nobody would dare attack you then.

[ or is Kogi going to insist on the honorable route and have another swordfight ]
hanaban: (092)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ and the fox won, right? right?? ]

If time ran out, you mean? We never did test what would happen then... In the end, everybody followed through to save their own skins.
hanaban: (254)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
It still could be.

[ probably not, but. still...

... ]


What was that symbol carved into the table? It'll drive Ryuki insane if he never figures it out.

[ grandpa!!!!!!! ]

Under the table? ...You weren't having tea, were you?
hanaban: (239)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-10-29 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh thank god, every time there's tea involved he loses his mind because why ]

The duel, you mean. Last man standing wins.
hanaban: (254)

[personal profile] hanaban 2023-11-02 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ he tilts his head like a puppy going ? ]

How's that? It's not like you had to duel to the death, right? You could've just hung out at the zoo. Eat some ice cream. Wait for the night to pass.
