[there's a short pause before he comes to open the door, stepping back.]
Do you want to come in?
[if he does, he'll see the following:
the walls and floor (pretend there's no bookcase in this picture but everything else is there,) are made of stone. somehow, it doesn't feel cold despite that, though that might be due to the warmth emanating from the fireplace. though the flames that flicker there aren't real, they still give off heat. similarly, the flames on the sources of light don't appear to be real. the rest of the light in the room comes from the window resting just above his desk, which always shows a field of wildflowers.
his bed sits on a thick rug, with more than a couple pillows resting near the headboard. A few feet away is an armoir, and a decoration on the wall (it's easy to tell the swords are not real). there's also a sofa near a bookcase. the spines of the fake books contained on the shelf seem to vary between books about history, politics, adventure novels, fairy tales, and mythology. the clock sitting on the wall makes a soft ticking noise every so often, adding to the noise of the crackling fireplace. a woven tapestry sits on the wall above the fireplace.
also, porridge is curled up and sleeping on the bed! hello tiny dragon.]
[pleased... mikazuki will wander in then, admiring the different pieces of decor. though as soon as he sees the dragon he is naturally enamored, pausing as he tilts his head toward it]
Ah, yeah, that's Porridge! He's from back home. [he grins.] He's a pretty heavy sleeper, so you don't need to worry about keeping your voice down or anything.
Oh - Tsurumaru's chicken? Yeah, they shouldn't be near each other, that's not going to end well.
[it's fine but anyways, he nods!]
Yeah, he is. He's normally a lot bigger than this - I guess they shrunk him somehow? But he doesn't seem like it hurt him at all, so I think it's okay. Now he's kind of the size he was when he had just hatched.
He definitely had a strange look in his eyes when he saw him and I don't particularly want to take chances. It's fine! I'll just, um. Watch him very carefully whenever I'm out of the room. I promise.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga is also a sword. We two were forged long ago... and even before our spirts were made manifest, our paths had crossed. In that way, we have met before - and met again for the first time in the village.

Is Porridge a dragon?

Would...
Would Porridge eat Bob-chan-san?

mikazuki is just covering his mouth at that, trying not to laugh]
... it would be appreciated. Let us keep Porridge well-fed with other dishes, shall we?
no subject
[he leans over and whispers conspiratorially, as if porridge is not sleeping and also could understand them if he were awake]
Between you and me, he's got a pretty big appetite, so I'm glad the restaurant has magically appearing food.
no subject
mikazuki will whisper in the same tones]
How fortunate that is. We also have a number of chefs among us, so I shall hope that we will be able to answer his stomach.
no subject
Just make sure not to spoil him! I'm the one who has to take him home after this!
no subject
Ha ha ha, my thoughts exactly about Tsurumaru Kuninaga.
no subject
Oh - right, he mentioned you were from the same group to start with... You two are close, then?
no subject
Oh, I suppose. We are lovers, though we tried to break up yesterday.
no subject
—Oh, you guys are together? That's great! I'm happy for you two.
[please hold until he takes in the second part of that sentence]
Wait, you tried to - oh. Um. Well, that makes the congratulations a little awkward. Why...?
no subject
We... were already on the precipice at the summer camp... And then... 'the stress of the situation became too much'.
I believe I am meant to find solace in the arms of another... or so it went.
It sounds like an awful lot of work...
[they were
trying to break up for the meme]
no subject
[math lady meme]
I, um. I'm gonna be honest, I don't think I get it!
no subject
[he doesn't do it very well though,]
But your congratulations are appreciated. I do love him.
no subject
[the awkwardness fades somewhat.]
Did you meet back there, or did you know each other beforehand?
no subject
Yes, and yes.
[ . . . ]
Tsurumaru Kuninaga is also a sword. We two were forged long ago... and even before our spirts were made manifest, our paths had crossed. In that way, we have met before - and met again for the first time in the village.
[soulmates!]
no subject
[very romantic! he smiles.]
Just like it was meant to be, huh? I like it.
no subject
[oh so fondly]
I still know little on the matters of love despite how others have attempted to teach, but I rather imagine it would look different for us regardless.

Might you possess a - how did Nana Daiba say it? A 'special someone'?
no subject
I do, yeah. His name's Amir. He's actually... who I came here for.
