Hm, for me it kind of depends? We were talking about whether it could come up for one of my plays, and I def want to do them justice if it does, you know? Gotta do my research to play the role well!
Oh, yeah, I guess that's a thing... [The Shinsengumi blowing up in the mainstream media like 200 years ago. WILD. Anyway he's immediately curious and has to ask:] --Hey, who'd you wanna play if you got to play any of 'em?
Oh, good question! Hm... I don't know if I could pull off Saito or Kondo that well, so I'd leave them to the others. If Okita's anything like they say he was, he might be the easiest for me.
But I think Hijikata could be a fun challenge? I mean, the guy's super popular and all, but figuring out how to play the Demon Vice-Captain sounds pretty fun, too.
[ ahem. kazunari's expression morphs from his usual cheer to annoyance, with gritted teeth and furrowed brow. ]
Oi! What kind of swordsmanship is that? Are you hoping to be cut down on the battlefield, or should I spare you the wait and take care of that right now?
Mm, I mean, it depends? Summer Troupe is all about comedies, but Autumn could totes make it an action-packed thriller with all the cool stunts, if they wanted. All bets are off if we mix the troupes for it, though! You might be surprised at how creative Tsuzuroon can get with his scripts.
So if it does come to that, I'll give the other guys a run for their money! If someone who knew the guy himself approves, I really can't lose! Oh, but you def have to come and see the show.
Huh... You should mix, then! That'd be the best one. Get everyone together and let 'em be as creative as they want!
[He'd actually want to see something Shinsengumi-related be born from such a creative chaos... His expression also brightens at the basically-an-invite!]
Ooh! You gotta remember to send me my ticket then, o-kay? I'll figure out a way to come for sure!
[THEIR SHINSENGUMI PLAY im so glad... Kashuu will run from the time army so he can go watch this play in another world.]
Heh, well, I think I'd probably have to go back to pretending to be... y'know, not someone who was around long enough to be a member of the Shinsengumi once we get outta here... But it'd still be totally fun to talk to 'em!
You think so? [BEAMING PROUDLY. He says this and yet swords only really fooled swords with their terrible acting, god bless.]
Sounds like I'll be meeting a whole lotta people, huh? I'll have to prepare really well for it! Outside of here, it's been a long time since I've talked to humans face-to-face.

Yeah, that sounds exaaactly like what I'd expect from that guy. [...] Do you actually like talking about that kinda stuff?
no subject
[ or maybe he's just a nerd who knows ]

You should totally show me your best impression of the Demon Vice-Captain! A little impromptu acting is okay, right?
1/2

no subject
Ooh! Wow, that wasn't so bad at all. You totally nailed the look! That's definitely something I could imagine hearing a Demon Vice-Captain say, too.
no subject
Haha, thanks! It'll probs be way better if I get some time to practice, but it's good to hear I'm on the right track!
...You seem pretty familiar with him, though? Did Yams tell you about him, or what?
no subject
Maybe you'll get the chance to grab that role and really knock it outta the park once we get outta here, yeah?
[ONCE WE DO he says, optimistically, ignoring statue npc being a debbie downer.]
Oh - nah, I knew the guy.
no subject
[ EXCITING ]
...Wait, what? You weren't one of them, too, were you?
no subject
[Said in a gently teasing tone, though. But then, with a little huff of a sigh:] Something like that, yeah.
no subject
So that's how you got so multi-talented. Mad props!
no subject
S'that one of your comrades? Sounds like they have good taste for what's popular... But I'm definitely multi-talented on my own, y'know!
[HE WON'T LET THE SHINSENGUMI TAKE CREDIT FOR THIS even if it is kind of their fault in a way.]
no subject
Mm, I wouldn't say that, exactly. He doesn't care if a story is popular. He just wants something new that stands out from all the rest.
...Ahaha, of course! Any kind of training needs a good base to work from, doesn't it?
no subject
Ooh... Hm. Well! I mean, I guess if you guys are known for comedies and skits and stuff, it'd definitely be a stand-out type of performance.
[The Shinsengumi sure does make for some tragicass stories, wow.]
Mmm... I guess. [HUFFS.] --Well! More importantly, now you know my rating of your Hijikata is definitely top-notch.

[LIKE INTERDIMENSIONAL TRAVEL IS EASY.]
no subject
And don't worry, I won't forget! You'll be a special guest - we can get you backstage passes and everything!
[ interdimensional travel ain't a problem if you just ignore it! ]
no subject
[But oh good his favorite method of dealing with potential problems: ignoring them!]
I've never gotten a backstage pass to anything before! Make sure to take good care of me, o-kay?
no subject
[ they actually do have a shinsengumi play at a future canonpoint but thanks to kashuu it is going to be Bigger ]
We will! Mankai Company gets a little wild, but they're all good peeps. And of course they'd love to talk to the inspiration behind the show.
no subject
Heh, well, I think I'd probably have to go back to pretending to be... y'know, not someone who was around long enough to be a member of the Shinsengumi once we get outta here... But it'd still be totally fun to talk to 'em!

I bet Mukkun would love you. I don't he's met an idol before? He'd be totally star struck! And Yukki would be all about this outfit of yours!
no subject

no subject
But that's just the Summer Troupe! Mankai Company is a pretty varied bunch, anyway. I think you guys would fit right in!
