[ there is a one-eyed dragon in your fountain.

no, really, there is a one-eyed dragon in your fountain, though perhaps a bit of clarification is in order. this dragon in your fountain is not quite literally a dragon--actually, he's a man--but he sure is one-eyed, armor-clad and...

well, he's certainly still in that fountain, right in front of you.

sleeping.

-- well! at least he looks peaceful. as peaceful as a guy with a helmet donning a crescent-moon and six swords can look like, anyway.

approach, if you want. he doesn't bite! kind of. ]

[Mitsuru couldn't believe her eyes - there was someone sleeping in Vatheon's fountain. It had to be someone new, for she didn't recognise him.

But as she drew closer, she realised that she recognised that crescent moon helmet. The one that belonged to Date Masamune. Was it a replica? No, it looked too much like an actual Sengoku era helmet to be a replica...

Now concerned, Mitsuru runs over to the fountain and raises her voice ever so slightly so the sleeping man could hear her.]

Excuse me! It really isn't appropriate to sleep there!

[dragonizing]

[ give him a moment to wake up, ~gracefully~. yeah, no, a man can only be so graceful when he's coming out of a pool of water soaking wet.

he's sitting up and letting this entire thing... sink in.

which, fortunately, he was not, literally. fountains are shallow things, after all. wait, fountain? what the fu-- ]

. . . Aah, so it isn't. [ well, could've woken up in a weirder place. ]

[invoker]

Are you alright?

[Mitsuru attempts to help him up. You may be getting her a bit wet because of general fountain proximity as well.]

There are proper lodgings here in Vatheon, if that's what you're lacking.

[dragonizing]

Yeah.

[ good thing he's too busy with burning souls to notice anything. otherwise there might be executions.

totally standing up in this fountain now, though he's taking as minimal assistance as possible. ]

I didn't end up in there by choice.

( action ) placeholder okay i am sorry

[stereo]

-- [ what is this ] Are you alright?

senior masamune come to me

[dragonizing]

[ 'Tis a guy in a fountain!

who notices not minako's cries. actually no he's kind of stirring. maybe. give him a moment. ]

throws self into arms

[stereo]

[ leaning over to listen to his breathing

doesn't sound dead!! ]

Hey, hey wake up! You're going to get sick there.

[faithqueen]

Oh. Excuse me sir? [Minnie is not sure what to make of this, at all. On one hand, maybe this is normal for Vathon, on the other. Person. In foutian. Sleeping?

Well. She should make sure they are OK.]

[dragonizing]

[ oh yes, he's fine. and also slightly waking up.

if he's shocked at ending up in a fountain he doesn't show it. ]

sorry for the slow!

[faithqueen]

Are you alright? [Plz don't freak out, Minnie is so nonthreating it's not funny.

-- also, royalty get. Hope you don't mind.]

[cubofkai]

[ There is a One-Eyed Dragon in the fountain.

THERE IS A ONE-EYED DRAGON IN THE FOUNTAIN

Yukimura's first thoughts are of his burning soul; afterward comes the Why did I not bring my spears grocery shopping?

Then the whole HE IS IN A FOUNTAIN part hits him the head again. ]

Masamune-dono!

[ Yukimura drops said groceries to run over to the fountain, worriedly clambering in to shake his rival's shoulders. ]

[dragonizing]

[ those poor groceries. but no, this one-eyed dragon in the fountain is jolting awake almost immediately. it's hard to stay asleep when there's a strange feeling of burning soul all of a sudden, even while unconscious. oh and shaking. that wakes him up pretty well too.

when he wakes up, everything is ever so clear. really, let him sit up, rival. )b| ]

. . . Sanada Yukimura. [ and then it clicks. there is a young tiger in the fountain. there is a young tiger. ] Yo.

[ where are we again all i see is burning soul ]

[cubofkai]

Are you well? Are you injured? You should not stay in a fountain like this! You will make yourself ill!

[ All right, so maybe it is hard to get out of the fountain when your rival is standing over you, but that does not seem to have occured to Yukimura yet. He has seen people arrive in this place in very bad shape, and is aftraid the same may have happened to Masamune.

Masamune is not allowed to get damaged in any form. Yukimura needs to be able to face him at his full strength on the battlefield! ]

NOW WITH LESS FAIL

[severing]

[...]

Wow, and people say I can sleep anywhere!

ERRDAY JAN'S FAILING

[dragonizing]

[ yeah well


he's comfortable here. excuse him as he shifts a little. he'll get up soon, promise. ]

SHUSH NO

[severing]

... Man, I didn't know you were this much of a sleepyhead, Helmet Head!

I'm not late you're imagining it. :T

[chivalrygrudge]

[... There is a boy staring at the one-eyed dragon.]

[He didn't think you'd come back.]

[Don't mind the tiny boy with a giant spear staring at you, Masamune.]

M... Masamune-san?

[Oh. He speaks.]

YOU'RE EARLY.

[dragonizing]

[ knocked out... except for the part where he shifts, mainly because the water's kind of in his face.

getting up is a thing now, yes. as is staring at ken. ]

Haah?

HELL YEAH I AM. :Db

[chivalrygrudge]

Good morning, Masamune-san.

[He's. Beaming a little bit at you. While still linefacing. He can do that.]

Do you remember being here before?

[twiceinhabited]

[A person is sleeping in the fountain. Clearly, she must wake them up before they catch a cold.

His helmet and swords got a glance from her, but she ignore them in favour of the man.]

Excuse me?

[dragonizing]

[ sorry, were you speaking-- oh no wait, here it comes. waking up! and then looking down at the water, and then at amane. ]

. . . Hah, looks like I fell asleep in one inconvenient place.

[twiceinhabited]

If you wish to sleep, there are free lodgings here in the city.

[echigo_wargod]

[ Kenshin had thought he'd seen everything until now.

So the one-eyed dragon has returned. Kenshin had the notion that the dragon couldn't stay away from this place somehow.

He approaches. ]

That is hardly a suitable location for sleep, One-eyed Dragon.

[dragonizing]

[ oh war god, this is date masamune. very pleased to surprise you.

masamune hardly registers the voice, at first, since he's just managed to wake up. however, the familiarity becomes apparent after a quiet pause, and you can bet he's getting up almost immediately. ]

So you're here too, War God. [ ignoring the fact he was sleeping in a fountain. ]

[echigo_wargod]

Indeed I am. [ who cares about fountains anyway? ]

[ Kenshin hasn't moved, despite Masamune's getting up. He simply stands there and smiles softly. ]
