Two Plucks

[writinurlyrics]

To rise and fall is man's fate, the moon shines so bright,
Looking down upon the world lying far below,
How sublime the moonlight o'er the ruined site,
Ah! To love the moon that shines in the depths of night!

One wonders, is it possible to obtain a koto and a shakuhachi in this City.

It is good that you have noticed my humble presence.

Oro?

[writinurlyrics]

Why do you speak so familiarly?

[crossshapedscar]

Ano... that is rather personal de gozaru yo...

This unworthy one did not catch your name de gozaru.

[writinurlyrics]

You are not required to answer. An answer is rather unnecessary.

It wasn't given, but one is called Kawakami Bansai.

[crossshapedscar]

Douzo yoroshiku, Kawakami-dono.

[writinurlyrics]

You also are well-met. What may one refer to you as?

[crossshapedscar]

This unworthy one's name is Himura Kenshin de gozaru. Kawakami-dono may refer to him however is most comfortable de gozaru.

[writinurlyrics]

May one inquire as to what class Kenshin is from?

[crossshapedscar]

Former samurai class de gozaru. This unworthy one is a rurouni de gozaru yo.

[writinurlyrics]

Is that so? A fallen samurai? Is there a particular reason?

One simply finds you very interesting, Kenshin.

[crossshapedscar]

This unworthy one felt no need to make permanent ties after the bakumatsu de gozaru.

Sou de gozaru.

[writinurlyrics]

This Bakumatsu.

What is it?

[crossshapedscar]

A revolutionary war that took place in Japan ten years ago de gozaru.

[writinurlyrics]

Then our situations while not identical were analogous. Do you have an opinion on the bakufu?

[crossshapedscar]

This unworthy one has never been one to discuss politics de gozaru. He prefers to concentrate on the lives of those in front of him de gozaru. Though he will admit he was never fond of the oppression the bakufu forced onto the lower classes de gozaru yo.

[ooc; He's deliberately being evasive since he doesn't really know why Bansai is interested in him. And sorry it's taking me so long to tag, I'm double checking my facts before I say something wrong. *sweatdrop*]

[writinurlyrics]

That is an answer sufficient to satisfy one's curiosity, Kenshin. We will be meeting soon and this man will treat you well.

[ooc: it's all cool! a tag is a tag :3 sadly kenshin probably doesn't want to know why Bansai is interested. He may have earned himself a new scary breed of Aoshi |D.]
