What do you miss most about home?

[ that's it; that's the post. i'm sure it has nothing to do with the coincidental timing of japan leaving. ]

I know the other swords can fulfill their duty in my stead.

I can do more here.

[ Sure didn't answer. ]

[goban]

I see.

[ yeah, he's seeing what he doesn't say ]

[udonsong]

Nonetheless, Japan has always been my home.

What I did, the battles I fought, they were for our home.

[goban]

You don't have to lie to me, Heshikiri.

[udonsong]

[ Ah, Oda....Maybe the sentiment is too broad. He'll do better. ]

I promised I would stay with him.

He and I will both outlive you. And so he made me promise I would stay by his side.

[goban]

It sounds like he made a lot of promises.

[udonsong]

He did.

[ There's no doubt about that. ]

Would you like me to bring you anything, master? A watermelon for the beach?

[ It's Sanguis, so. ]

[goban]

I suppose so.

[udonsong]

I will, then. We can split it.

Unless you would you like me to tell you more about my home? Things have changed quite a lot in my time, I'm afraid.

[goban]

Bring the watermelon and we'll talk here.

[udonsong]

Alright. I'll be there soon. Do you need anything else before I go?

[goban]

No.

[ thanks hasebe!! too bad that word isn't in his vocab ]

[udonsong]

[ He wouldn't have it any other way!! ]

Understood. I'll be there soon.

[ Should we move this to a log or keep going here? ]
