[ ...he knows smiles like those. he wears his own like a shield most of the time, with the veneer of summertime joy layered so heavy on top of it that no one ever thinks to question.
it's different than his smile, but kazunari thinks he can understand it, at least a little, so he won't press too far. ]
No kidding. [ it explains, maybe a little, why kashuu was so unwilling to talk about okita. ] ...I'm sorry - that it's like that. I hope you guys get some rest from it sometimes... especially after something like that.
[ part of him wonders if buzen is okay, too, but - he always seemed to handle things just fine, so maybe he shouldn't worry? ]
[ . . . mikazuki shakes his head - but it is almost a little fondly now.]
... your sentiment is kind, Kazunari Miyoshi. Thank you.
I will not deny that sometimes the burden is heavy - it is impossible to. [not when urashima and matsui gou sobbed on that beach, their tears intermingling with the sea salt] But... I believe, ultimately, we are happy.
Or at the very least... I will always endeavor to keep everyone safe and happy, for as long as we have.
[ it's hard for him to imagine, as someone who's never really had to worry about anything until the prism. if nothing else, the prism and the hotel has given him a new appreciation for that life, and for those who mange to protect things like it. ]
I've only met a handful of sword spirits like you, but they've all been really dedicated to the mission. So I think you'll manage just fine, even if it's hard.
buzen: i can't tell kazu anything bc he's from more modern japan what if he ends up in danger mikazuki: oh good he's from modern japan we always need more allies]
... I believe that it is always a pleasant surprise - the capabilities that humans possess.
