SCAWWY 😱 iwatooshi

[concoctive]

The cherry blossom symbolizes both life and death, beauty and violence. As the coming of spring promises new life, so the blooming of cherry blossoms brings a sense of vitality and vibrancy. At the same time, their short lifespan is a reminder that life is fleeting. While cherry blossoms can be visually appealing to the eyes, there are actually many medicinal and therapeutic uses to various parts of the cherry blossoms. These health benefits include anti-inflammation, reducing blood pressure, or even treating diabetes symptoms.

Down? [ peers over his shoulder, down into the cellar. ] Not yet. I don't want to overcrowd in small areas.

[ he is so big. and now he has the naginata? that makes it more difficult. ]

[concoctive]

[ still does not question iwatooshi using his height to loom, gaze wary down the passage. ]

Well, just the two of us, now, and I dunno about you but I'm used to working with real big fellas. [ reaching back to pat him on the arm. ] Sword's a lot longer than Olberic's, but he carries the huge suckers that're bigger than some of the girls here. Wanna check it out and clear it?

[naginota]

I am the biggest one, where I'm from.

[ so he's familiar in that sense lmao. so he nods! lesgo! ]

Small areas put me at a disadvantage, but as long as I'm careful, I can still fight, if we need to.

[concoctive]

I bet. [ looking at him. you are so large.

but, still, he nods and sets aside the bowl he was digging into, reaching to tug his axe free of the loop in his belt. ]

I can head down first, maybe? Check ahead so you know how much room you've got to move in?

[naginota]

[ he gives the axe a curious look. weapon to weapon communication (no) ]

Mm... Only if you're certain. If anyone gets injured, I'd rather it be me.

[ he can handle it! but most of you are fragile humans! ]

[concoctive]

[ well, kinda, since he'd be able to notice this kind of thing. it's a big ol' axe that's clearly seen many battles, hence being battle-tested, but has been well taken care of over the many years that it's seen use.

he gives it an expert spin, and iwatooshi a smile. ]

Well, fair 'nough. But it's not nearly as bad looking as any of the dungeons I've had to go down into.

Either of us gets hurt, I can patch us up. I made my robe and that fella Rondo's into strips for bandages.

[naginota]

[ ah. a good master, then. he's glad to see it. ]

Dungeons, huh? An explorer, are you? And a healer. I'm not sure if it would work on me, but I appreciate it, anyway.

[ usually it wouldn't! he doesn't know he's effectively human yet! so he focuses on adjusting his hold on the nagi to accommodate for the space and nods. ]

Let us go.

[concoctive]

[ poor iwatushy, in for a surprise. alfyn just blinks at him, because what. healing works on everybody. ]

Being a healer came first, then an explorer. Needed to set out to learn more about being an apothecary, so I could get better, and then I met a bunch of friends on their own travels. Kinda worked out from there, y'know?

[ down they go, though, as he peers low in an attempt to get a peek. ]

What about you? If you don't mind my asking.

[naginota]

[ haha anyway! ]

So that's how it is! You take your studies seriously - how admirable. And you're very lucky to have met friends along the way.

[ iwatooshi will just have to focus on trying to hit his head or weapon on anything. the curse of being big. ]

I am a touken danshi. I've traveled to many places for my masters, but never outside of our country before now. This is a new experience for me!

[ exciting!! ]
