[mikazuki's smile just grows at that before he inclines his head toward tsurumaru in return to whisper back]

My, modern fashion truly does inspire you to be a terror. Shall we buy it?

[he doesn't sound upset about the chaos incoming tho

to onlookers this probably seems like pretty people flirting but they're just being awful old men]

[preowned]

I think it'll do.

[ he moves away just enough so that he can glance around the store. something for jiji... ]

And you? We need to give you... fashion.

[unsaid]

Then I will prepare myself to receive... fashion.

[he's going to be left at tsuru's whims

but also catch the eye of someone who was staring at them and just smile politely back. they hurriedly look away in a fluster.]

[preowned]

[ he's going to take his time looking around and when he sees something he likes he just

hurries to it so fast




and returns with this ]

[unsaid]

[this is

so terrible.

it's genuinely so fucking terrible and yet mikazuki just thinks this is general fashion? so he just tilts his head to the side thoughtfully before laughing]

I do not know how well it will keep me warm?

[but he supposes he'll deal with it anyway. he will move to shrug off his coat as well but slowly, like he's obviously waiting for tsuru's assist]

[preowned]

[ tsuru is like, so genuinely delighted by this shirt. it's his favorite thing in the world.

but he will obediently go to help jiji get dressed in this thing, grinning the whole time. there's a pause where he seems to be... considering... ]

What are you supposed to wear under it?

[unsaid]

.... clothes?

[but he sounds more

hopeful than anything?]

[preowned]

[ ... hm.

he doesn't reply. he just puts it over his shirt and looks him over.

hm. ]

[unsaid]

[hm.

mikazuki regardless walks forward a few steps, turns neatly on his heel, walks back. there are probably dressing rooms but they are doing this on the shop floor. people are still watching them.

even though mikazuki looks amused]

If you would like me to show more, I am afraid we will need to go behind closed doors, my dear.

[stop]

[preowned]

Maybe later.

[ stop

but he is very pleased with this regardless, and he'll at least go to tug it off of mikazuki after. ]

Let's take it.

[unsaid]

[he just laughs

please don't undress jiji later just for fun i'll die

but he'll go along with the help, before then waiting for tsuru to help him put his jacket back on. i hate this]

Mm, let's. If we provide your measurements and preferences to the staff, they should be able to retrieve more staple pieces for you as well. And perhaps we can shop... on the line?

[why]

[preowned]

Oh, Sada-chan does that... it was always exciting to see the boxes come in.

[ sometimes he would open them even though they weren't his because he doesn't know what a boundary is.

he picks up a random snapback as jiji talks. he places it on the other's head. ]

We should learn how to do that anyway, I suppose.

[unsaid]

[JIJI'S WEARING A SNAPBACK AND A SUIT



anyway he's just allowing this, even as he'll reach out to grab a pair of sunglasses and reach out to gently deposit them over tsuru's eyes]

Perhaps so. We might as well make the most of our time like this.

[even if they have no idea how long it'll last]

[preowned]

[ THIS IMAGE IS A LOT LARGER ON MY COMPUTER VS LOOKING AT IT ON MOBILE GMAIL

but tsuru will blink, adjusting the erotic sunglasses just to make sure they stay on his face. it's more of a habit from requiring reading glasses than anything-- although he now realizes belatedly he probably doesn't need those anymore? odd. ]

I have a growing to do list, actually.

[unsaid]

[oh it autorefit into the screen when i pasted it oh well

anyway! mikazuki will go forth and guide them to the cashier for their stupid purchases, including the hat and the sunglasses]

Ha ha ha, is that so? What more is there, aside from giving chase to your chickens?

[preowned]

It's...

[ there's a pause, and he'll edge a little closer to jimi, like he's telling a secret. however, he continues to speak at a normal volume. ]

A surprise.

[unsaid]

[he bows his head toward tsurumaru automatically, as if naturally expecting a secret.

but instead he just hums thoughtfully before nodding]

Ah, of course, of course... I shall look forward to it, then.

[just tsuru things!!!! but he'll pay for all these awful clothes they've looked at and all the accessories. then it's off to do more grandpa things. honestly we can possibly timeskip until jiji wants to do his moon viewing like an old man. maybe they get snacks]

[preowned]

[ yea. tsurumaru would have chosen as many snacks that would normally be bad for the health of an old ass man. a lot of sweets! he's excited about it. ]

Where shall we sit?

[ he is presumably holding everything because sometimes you just

automatically pamper someone ]

[unsaid]

[sweets!!!! honestly jiji also probably picked out a bottle of sake. moon viewing!

they're probably somewhere on jiji's compound now but - it's still a large place. they're further away from the main house, but not so far that they'll have to drive to get back. he's just shuffling on his way down the path, humming to himself]

I believe there is a nice spot under a tree up ahead... Even my old bones could make it there, before—though not as often as I'd like.

[preowned]

It is a hassle how much age gets in the way...

[ it was already apparent in normal day to day life, but it's become even more so in the last day. tsuru was beginning to forget what certain things were like, and now he's just constantly reminded of it. ]

Oh! I think I see it-- I could probably climb it.

[unsaid]

[it's a very large tree at the end of the pathway, with the soft glow of a very traditional-looking lantern post nearby. could probably get a hanamaru regain from this.]

Will you? Maybe there's a treasure hidden at the top.

[is





is there????]

[preowned]

Ah.

[ he looks up, staring intently at the tree. this will be a mess later but it's fine. ]

It'll be ours.

[ no ]

[unsaid]

I look forward to it.

[please don't just randomly encourage this. but mikazuki will regardless go to find a nice area with even ground and make a gesture to it - he's expecting tsuru to put a blanket down i'm sorry]

Ah, this looks like a fine spot.

[preowned]

[ tsuru looks at him. looks at the spot. looks at jiji again.



he'll put it down. ]

Sit, sit, old man. Before your knees fall out from under you.

[unsaid]

[fufu

he seems pleased with this development, but also like he expects it? sometimes you are just used to being taken care of, and you also happen to have a favorite caretaker. also it's probably funny how he looks so young and his joints no longer creak and ache, but he's very gentle and slow indeed about depositing himself on the blanket in a graceful manner.

stupid.]

It was a very near accident. Perhaps this rejuvenation did not extend as much as I had thought.

[THIS IS A LIE HE FEELS FINE]
