[HERE IS A YASUSADA... now openly not-human, since his stellar acting job has rudely been tarnished by the reveal of the profiles. He's got his mic with him for lack of anywhere else to put it, and right now he's sitting down and looking like he's concentrating very hard!!!
...But whatever he's doing doesn't seem to work, because he sighs after a minute. Alas.]
[she's got a small and tattered amber colored blanket that she's carrying around with her, and while she's normally not the type to strike up a conversation, the way the object calms her slightly makes it more likely. she raises an eyebrow at whatever effort he's making, but it's the microphone that takes her interest.]
ANYWAY here they are!! Outside of this shiny new apartment building, which Yasusada hasn't entered yet; he's observing with curiosity, craning his neck and looking at the colorful windows.]
I've heard about these, but I've never been inside of one before.
[they did not get to fuss over each other yesterday because they were BOTH CYOA-ING HELP. But after the mass text Yasusada is probably off checking up on other people, so he's relieved to see her. His voice still sounds strained and weak, but a little better than yesterday.]
[all of her injuries have been bandaged by now, so they're no longer visible. most of the bandages are under her clothes, so the only real sign something happened is the fact that her hand is bandaged and she's moving much slower than normal.]
Well, Vin can probably find Yasusada in the dojo, though he's not practicing. He's just kneeling, seiza style, staring down at the wooden sword resting in front of him. He doesn't look up to greet her, but he won't leave if she enters.]
[she enters and then pauses for a long moment, searching for what to say. apparently she doesn't come up with much, though, because the first thing is:]
Well, one good thing about this week is that Yasusada's learned A Respectful Distance. So even though Vin's emotions are probably too strong to avoid, he can stop far enough away that she doesn't get hit by his own depression too.]
[Very funny that they are now both in-game murderers and yet somehow innocent-adjacent.
ANYWAY. Yasusada still looks very tired--but relatively steady, at least compared to earlier today. The color has faded from his hands, and it's only his hair that's reflective of the night sky now.
He nods in greeting to Vin when he sees her, wherever they happen to be.]
[she gives him a nod in return! that was stressful to watch, and it ordinarily wouldn't have been an outcome anyone wanted, but... given the circumstances, there are more horrible ways the day could have gone. she didn't get the chance to talk to him yesterday, though, so she's approaching now.]
[Predictably Yasusada is glued to Kashuu's side tonight, but assuming Kashuu doesn't fuckin die in the pods he will send a text!!! It will be very funny if Vin is blind and can't reply]

What is that?

He looks up as she approaches, and follows her gaze.]
Oh, this? It's for singing and dancing. I don't really know why it's here, though...

[they have communal housing where she's from, but nothing like this.]
It's so tall...
no subject
I think so. They have buildings kind of like this in some of the eras we've been to--the ones after the time of swords.

Mmm... it was interesting? It was different from the human games I know. [If that wasn't. Exceedingly obvious.] Kumon and Atsushi worked hard.
