Broadcast

[Kogarasumaru is sitting in the garden of the Caprine. On his shoulder rests a beautiful bird who currently happens to be asleep and burrowed into that wing hair of its owner.

The owner who smiles at the screen now.]

It would seem that we have had quite a few changes after returning to our ships. Some new arrivals and some loses as well.

[He looks to the bird and gently strokes its head.]

Sadly, Baku has departed. In her place, as captain of the Caprine, you will find myself. I am also the caretaker of the fox park and dojo here. I will be continuing my sword lessons now that we have returned. Should you require answers to questions, this father is named Kogarasumaru.

[He will nod and leave that there. Anyone living on or visiting the Caprine is welcome to come visit him.]

Comments

[The tea is ready just in time for his young companion to enter and he looks over with a smile. The bird from the video is perched nearby just lazily cleaning his feathers.]

It's good to see you again. Please make yourself comfortable.

[wakemelater]

Um, thank you.

[He takes a seat, eyeing the bird carefully. Animals sensitive to the aura of death that clung to him tended not tolerate him. He turns his attention to his host.]

Do you do this a lot? The tea?

[crow_dad]

I do. Tea is a very important part of my culture, after all. The one I was created into.

[Pouring tea into both cups, he passes one to Nico with a smile.]

I have snacks here as well. The sweetness of them will compliment the tea we drink.

[Sitting back now, he has a sip from his cup.]

How have you been?

[wakemelater]

[He accepts the cup with a nod, and a shrug.]

I don't know. No different than any other time? I've talked to people, and ... I'm still just as confused as I was when I first arrived.

[crow_dad]

What confuses you? Is it something that troubles your heart?

[wakemelater]

I'm used to more direction. Even if I'm not directly involved, there's usually some ... thing that needs to be found, or a meddling god, or a prophecy, or a war. [He's perplexed. He looks more angry, but he always looks angry. That's his face.] I don't know what to do with myself.

[crow_dad]

Do you know how to use a sword?

[wakemelater]

[He nods, takes a sip of his tea.] I do.

[crow_dad]

You could come to spar with me or you could join me in giving lessons to others. It would be something small but it would be a purpose of sorts.
