He just... SHOWED UP.

[might_of_mikawa]

I know you are eager to find Hanzo, Tadakatsu, and the others, but you must exercise patience, Mundane-san. I know my retainers very well, and I have no doubt that they are thriving in whatever places they found themselves. Be patient and we will find them.

It is quite hard to find people we are familiar with, Lord Ieyasu. Alas, I cannot direct you to them, for I have not seen them either.

I wish you luck in your endeavours.

[might_of_mikawa]

Thank you Takakage. I have no doubt that they are doing just fine on their own. Still, it is nice to see a familiar face in this... rather bizarre place.

[thirdarrow]

[ He smiles faintly, closing his eyes for a moment. ]

I pray your Mundane treats you well. Admittedly I am not quite in the best position to say this, seeing that they dictate what happens to us... but we can always hope for the best.

[ He says this because his certainly hasn't. ]

don't mind me

[strategicnaps]

At least you don't have to destroy planets.

[Siiigh.] It really takes up a lot of your free time!

MINDS U

[thirdarrow]

I noticed.

[ Takakage chuckles faintly, but his smile becomes more pained. ]

It's a choice between two paths ringed equally with misery, isn't it?

[ ... probably only for him. Hanbei doesn't have as much qualms about what he is doing, and didn't have to deal with having his insides ripped out and thrown out of the window.

Metaphorically, of course. ]

ew gross

[strategicnaps]

[Well it's either destroying planets or getting your own planets destroyed, so. 8|

Anyone who argues there's actually a choice in what they're doing can get a compass to the face.] Now, you shouldn't think like that, though! Even if your mun doesn't want you to be happy, nothing can be gloomy all the time.

[gloomy a lot of the time is more accurate]

I'm very gomen to Ieyasu's player we just threadjacked whoops

[thirdarrow]

Perhaps. [ He merely comments neutrally, smile not wavering. There's a lot that Hanbei doesn't understand, and probably never will. It's best to just leave it be.

Anyway... ]

I am glad that you are doing fine.

Don't be! This is great.

[might_of_mikawa]

[Ieyasu is just going to sit over here, looking at the pair of them like they grew a second head. What on Earth are they going on about?]

LMFAO sorry ieyasu

[strategicnaps]

[Life is hard, Ieyasu. Why can't they just be apped into nice little SoL games 8( ]

As fine as anyone spending four months on a snow planet can be, anyway.

Oh, and a piece of advice. [He's speaking to the both of them--] 'Plot-heavy' games tend to be a lot more taxing.

let's just cycle tags

[thirdarrow]

It's quite commendable how you've persevered, Lord Hanbei. [ He's barely on Empatheias for two days and he's already in pieces. ]

My Lady has looked into your game, actually, but she decided not to bring me there. There were more suitable candidates, but in the end she had little time to sustain that prospect, so she sent me elsewhere.

Though I must confess that it may not have been the best idea.

Sounds good to me!

[might_of_mikawa]

[Ieyasu was really regretting not having Hanzo here. At least the ninja would offer to get Ieyasu a drink. He kind of needed it after all this.]

Lord Hanbei, would you mind explaining just what you're talking about?

[strategicnaps]

[There are no drinks here, only pain. Hanbei would drink in his game, but he technically still has his disease, so.]

Well, when you're a genius, you'll understand when the situation is out of your control. I don't like resorting to it, but making the best of it really does help.

[AHEM. Onto explaining--] Oh, I was unwittingly roped into an organization that works to destroy planets. So I'm trying to destroy one called 'Ajna' now.

[ 8) totally a great explanation 8) ]

gomen i went to eat lunch OTL

[thirdarrow]

And I was sent to an island where emotions had effect upon the environment. With no way of returning.

[ It wasn't pretty. And especially considering who he met there... ]

There are many strange worlds out there, Lord Ieyasu. Please take care.

[lecturingall]

That's the spirit, Ieyasu! I'm sure your retainers are searching for you as well.

[might_of_mikawa]

Ah, Lady Nene! I hadn't expected to see you here. A pleasure, as always.

[...if a little awkward considering the couple times he's gone up against Hideyoshi...]

[lecturingall]

[It's okay. As long as he is being a good boy under Hideyoshi's established reign...]

It's good to see you as well, Ieyasu. Your mun is treating you well, I hope?
