Hot Springs and Ryokan



Guess what, y'all. It's time for a field trip. We're heading to a Hot Springs and an Inn for the weekend, and everyone is invited. This place is huge, and has multiple springs both indoor and out. There's separate bathing, mixed, and even a spot for foreigners and prudes who like to keep their swimsuits on. Table tennis? Got it. Room service? You bet. Massages? Possibly. Ghosts? Maybe.


1. Hot springs: after you rinse off come take a relaxing bath. There are multiple options as to what kind of bathing environment you can have, so please choose wisely. Also, please read the signs. None of the springs will kill you, but if you choose the wrong one you might end up with some... adverse effects. Cursed springs might just be a Thing.

2. The Inn: you'll be here for a few nights so find your rooming buddy and get friendly. Whether bonding over food, games, or even just exploring the place there's certainly something you can find to occupy yourself. Just don't be too curious after curfew. The staff are pretty insistent, but they aren't cops so responsibility for your actions are your own.

[Like it isn't satisfying on at least SOME level to see him smash his own face in!!

Anyway, he takes a few ragged breaths and then lets his head loll to the side so he can look at Kaname. It's an unusual look for him but his expression is plainly apologetic.

...I am awake, right? Tell me I'm not a samurai.

Is that what you were supposed to be?

[ARE YOU TELLING HER SHE MISSED OUT ON KISSING A SAMURAI? She's been robbed.]
powerhittou: (when things start feeling alright)

[personal profile] powerhittou 2019-05-28 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
I don't even know.

[It's not like the samurai's gone, wink wink. And that's just making this all the more disorienting.]

Is that what sleepwalking feels like? It sucks. Shit, Kaname, I didn't mean... [...to... you know...]

H-hey. I know it sucks. I've felt it. So let's just... get you back to the room, maybe? I don't want you overdoing it by being dehydrated in a hot spring.

[She leaves his side to hurry and get the things. Her yukata, his, and the sake bottle because she's not just going to leave things sitting around for someone to clean up.]
powerhittou: (your pop caught you smoking)

[personal profile] powerhittou 2019-05-28 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah... Yeah, okay.

[He's pretty unfocused but he manages to get himself to his feet with a little help and slip his robe back on. He has the fuzzy, overlapping memory of being a weak, sick child needing help just crossing the room.]

What, what was it you said about yours again? It's like it's not you?

S-sort of. It's a cross between someone trying to teach me something and someone trying to steal my body from me.

[Once they're dressed she pulls him in close to help hold him up. For some reason this feels familiar... like she's done this before in another life.]
powerhittou: (oh girls just wanna have fun)

[personal profile] powerhittou 2019-05-29 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
[He groggily lets his head fall against her shoulder. He could probably keep it up if he made the effort, but... nah. Kaname's warm and comforting.]

Mm... You sleeptalk sometimes... Getting taught, I guess. [Math shit, science shit, all of it shit beyond his understanding or field of interest.]

Mine's not that scary. It's still... me, I think. A past life or something? I dunno, it was always just dreams until this time.

Past life sounds... Accurate to what I was putting up with, I guess.

[She hobbles them back into the building with sake taken along. Maybe when she has him lying down she can just gun some shots and not give a damn about the weirdness.]

Do you remember anything, or like do you not really share awareness while like that?
powerhittou: (man you don't want to go)

[personal profile] powerhittou 2019-05-29 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
This is the first time it's happened like this, but... [He trails off while Kaname kindly gets him situated.]

...I don't- I don't know how to describe it. I remember what I did, I remember how I was thinking and what I- he?- remembered.

Holy shit, what if it's trying to steal my body too?
pivotpoint: (133)

[personal profile] pivotpoint 2019-05-29 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Hah, I don't think he's trying to steal your body. He didn't seem to like it here.

[She'll hold him close until they reach the room. Graciously Kaname will set him down on her bed linens.]

I'm glad you're back though. Should I get something edible and absorbent to try and help with the nausea?
