[Okita landed out at the edge of the forest somewhere, pretty far from the rest of the village and has been trying to make his way back ever since. He'd been out that way so he got pretty well lost and is just now coming back to the village. It's taken him all this time, he's pretty tired and isn't looking all that great. He somewhat figured out he can't speak, but isn't quite sure yet.

Anyway, he's come back to the edge of the village and tried to make his way back to Community House #4, but he doesn't quite have the energy and ends up somewhat passing out near the intersection of the Welcome Center and the Clinic. Someone help him?

Also, Hyuga? You're a dead man. 8(]

[Was that a laugh? He tests this theory.]

Buki? Buki buki.

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-OH LAWDY-

1/2

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[He starts laughing, still oinking like a piglet.]

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[But ends up in a coughing fit. orz]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

Ah, now now, no need to overdo it...

-Sasarai gently pats him on the back, letting out a bit of a sigh.-

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[He smiles apologetically and slips his hand under the bedcovers for a moment. Then brings it back up to rest on top as he shakes his head.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you're in good spirits at least... thank you for the much needed smile, friend.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Good spirits. Right. Souji keeps smiling at him, even if he doesn't really feel like smiling. This is mostly for your sake, Sasarai.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-He takes a seat next to Souji's bed, intending to remain there for as long as was needed to keep the other company. It wasn't like he was in any position to refuse.-

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Okita pauses for a moment and realizes Sasarai's not going anywhere. Looking around the room for a moment, he tilts his head at the other man, wondering how long he's thinking of staying.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-He's got a book. That's an indication.-

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[Well, poo. Okita shifts uncomfortably for a moment then looks at Sasarai's book, pointing to it.]

Buki?

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-Sasarai shows the cover to Souji. It's Eiji Yoshikawa's famous "Asahi Shinbun" story, aka...-

A book from your world, actually. A historical epic about a swordsman named Miyamoto Musashi.

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[He's never seen this book, but he knows Miyamoto Musashi and seems somewhat excited, reaching out for it.]

Bukibuki buki buki!

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

Did you wish to see it?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[The grabby hands motions he's making says yes.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-With a chuckle, Sasarai hands the book over.-

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[He takes it and opens it up, flipping through the pages. As he skims a few lines, he makes contented little pig noises.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-WHY IS IT SO ADORABLE?!-

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[He finds one page interesting and stops for a moment, reading along, then flips to a few pages after that, oinking a little in agreement at what's written. Then he looks to Sasarai and holds the book out to him, with the pages open.]

Buki buki?

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

Ah, erm...

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[He motions with the book for Sasarai to take it and tilts his head.]
Buki? Bu buki buki buki.

[And again with the motioning. And now puppy eyes. :( Read to meeeeeeeeee.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

Do you... want me to read to you?

[ahappylie.livejournal.com]

[The book is shoved into Sasarai's hands accompanied by Okita's happy piggy grunts.]

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

-Well Souji is about to discover another of Sasarai's talents: Oration.-
