[ ... 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]

[preowned]

Oh... perhaps we should get a wheelchair?

[ he

he definitely sounds like he simply wants to fool around with a wheelchair in ways you shouldn't be using one. ]

[unsaid]

[




well,]

I can put in a request?

[he's such a fucking enabler]

[preowned]

[ oh, his face just lights up at that, which is bad. it's obvious he is thinking of all the ways you could be chaotic with a wheelchair when you also have working knees. ]

Yes. It will be very important.

[ no ]

[unsaid]

[that just makes mikazuki laugh even as he does reach for a snackie. hope he chokes!]

Of course. I would very well call it necessary for our investigation.

[something something testing out mobility of bodies something

it really isn't but he'll go with it]

[preowned]

Exactly. There are many things we will have to investigate...

[ he pauses, his expression turning serious. ]

Tandem bicycles.

[unsaid]

We would cover quite a bit more ground that way without sacrificing being close to nature.

[don't make it sound poetic when you won't pedal, bitch

but he will go and get sake for them both, pouring a cup for tsuru and offering it to him]

Shall we drink to our good fortune?

[preowned]

[ tsuru would literally be doing all of the work it's horrible

but he'll take it happily. ]

And may it last for as long as it is convenient to us?

[ ... because he is still unsure of how long he would want this to last, but he does selfishly hope it's not gone by tomorrow.

it'll be nice to have even a little more time, when you were previously on your metaphorical last legs. ]
