( fellow moonblessed~! have a pair of dark hazel eyes looking at you through the screen, a pointy nose against it because he knows no better than having the right distance from the feed's view. he's just trying to find the perfect angle. )

I know I've met some people during the festival, which I must thank them for their kindness when I first arrived. ( an almost, visible attempt of a bow. coughing a little and clearing his throat in a cute manner. ) My name is Souji Okita, from Edo, Japan, Earth as I know. First Captain of the Shinsengumi and Assistant Captain to Commander Isami Kondō-sensei and Vice-Commander Toshizo Hijikata-san.

I've been told there's another Okita here. No, I don't have a brother or a twin. No, I don't owe you money, I never kicked your dog and I certainly never soiled your gardens. ( in before anyone could come up to him with yelling and insults, hoping this place isn't like kyoto. are these things what sadists do? he doesn't even know. and 'psycho killer' would fit in here. ). I haven't met him, so... Okita-mimic-kun, you better make a public apology for any kind of offense towards the people you might have irritated. Do not make a disgrace of my family name, please! ( because... shinsengumi's motto is 'truth' so truth goes with justice, mister. hah! however, given the poor view of his face, take his seriousness with a grain of salt. )

Leaving that aside, I'd like some help about technology and contemporality, as I come from a time where none of what Lunatia has exists, and gaijin knowledge is only available to the scholars and nobility.

Of course, as it seems like I'm staying for an unknown period of time, I offer you my services for a fair wage. I'll gladly help you with any Chroma you want in return for these favors! I'm indebted to your kindness once again!

That man doesn't have a noble bone in his body. I doubt he'll listen to your plea.

[Listen, he lives with the other Souji Okita and that bold request for a public apology makes him snort. He'll give this guy all his chroma if that makes darkest timeline Okita see the error of his ways.]

It's an odd coincidence to have two of you here. This world has a bizarre sense of humor.

[embracethewind]

That's what I thought. ( a heavy sigh. thanks for the heads-up hijikata. give him a little credit for trying at least. )

Odd, indeed. I still can't get a hold of it yet. I apologize in his behalf if he has done anything to offend you, sir.

[casaposa]

Don't apologize for other people. Sharing a name isn't a crime. The responsibility lies with him and him alone.

[Though he is pleasantly surprised this guy was willing to apologize on that demon's behalf. Maybe there's hope for the Okita lineage yet.]

I suggest you try to avoid him as much as possible, unless you want a permanent headache.

[SAYS THE MAN LIVING WITH HIM OUT OF SPITE. Do as he says, not as he does okay.]

[embracethewind]

( souji is also a demon himself, except not one that takes pleasure in other people's suffering. ) Since he shares my last name I feel somewhat responsible for his behavior. My eldest sister made sure I lived up to the Okita name.

( WHO IS THIS OKITA MIMIC!? he has a reputation already!? ) You do know him, right?

[casaposa]

Your sister is an honorable woman.

[He gets it. The Zeppeli name means more to him than his own life and if anyone were to taint that, he'd go after them in a heartbeat.]

And I'm well acquainted with him. We're roommates.

[embracethewind]

Haha-ue, Mitsu-neesama and Kin-neesan are all honorable and kind women. The best of all!

( he owes his childhood to them. actually, is more about tainting his sensei's good name.

oh geez. how embarrassing! )

Is there anything I can do to make up for all the damage he has done?

[casaposa]

[That's really sweet. That must be more of the kid's family.]

No, it's not your burden to bear. I will deal with him on my own terms.

Prepare for a grind if you plan on dealing with him though. That man will try your patience fast.

[embracethewind]

( he was the baby of the family, until his first nephew was born. )

Would he? It's more shocking how he's considered the 'prince of sadists'.

[casaposa]

He's a prince of nothing. A pauper of fools would be more appropriate.

[embracethewind]

( are they now 'the pauper of fools of lunatia'? souji pulls a hurt yet sympathetic face, because some of it is true. he was a pauper as a child. )

Do I count myself as one?

[casaposa]

I only know that man-not you. If you think that poorly of yourself, then that's your business.

But for the record, you aren't cut from the same cloth. I don't think that lowly of you.

[embracethewind]

( that... brings a 'oh, i get it' face. )

I'm glad someone can already tell the difference. That was the point of this... moving picture option.

[casaposa]

I doubt anyone would confuse the two of you, picture or not. That man is vile and easy to pick out in text and voice too. Don't worry about that.

[embracethewind]

It would be a great failure on my part to not recognize my own self, hahah!

( unless it's a trap! yet unlikely. )

[casaposa]

[Mamma mia, he almost feels bad for the guy. There's a kindness in this Okita that doesn't exist in the other one and boy is he in for a rough surprise. ]

Regardless, stay sharp when dealing with him. Don't let your guard down and you will persevere.

[embracethewind]

( like a heavy rock crushing over him? how on earth would a version of himself be this mean? )

Oh! I never do! I'm always on my toes.

Still, if you need assistance with him, I can help you.
