[There's a small smile at the headbutt back and he starts relaxing, calming down, though he definitely feels some of the Demon King ice creeping back in. The mention of Jeff gets him to pull back and arch eyebrows. Jeff was definitely acting weird, more than just Nobunaga's paranoia.]
Do you know what's wrong with him? Or... where he is now?
He's been possessed by a ghost. Might be one of the ghosts from on this ship. I'm sure he ran off after he stabbed me, so... no. I don't know where he is. But I do know that Bash is looking for him. Before you try to find him or do anything, you should talk to Bash. Jeff was--is--his boyfriend.
Yeah, I remember Jeff told me about him. [Makes a face, because ew gross. Nobunaga's like a five year old about such things.] I think Arthur said he's in the brig now. Not-Jeff. He was acting off, but I couldn't prove it, and he still knew what Jeff had done or not when I tried testing him. [Not completely what he did now with asking Crichton if he knew, since this was more getting onto the same page.]
There was a lot of fire damage, do you remember anything about that? It might have been when Jeff was captured.
[Nobunaga's face just... slowly goes very amused. THIS is why you're his friend, FOR SURE. It's something Hideyoshi would have said and done too, but with even less annoyance factor somehow.]
It's not that widespread. Plenty of costumes left, I promise. I'll cordon the burned area off. Maybe use some of those decoration tombstones. Anything you want on yours? A cool epitaph or something. [Yes, "cool." Nobunaga has gone so very native here.]
[He points at the useless television sitting in his room.] See that thing? It's a TV. The ones at home played shows and movies just like what we watched on the deck. Sometimes, in the middle of it, there would be an advertisement. A commercial, trying to sell something. That's all. They would show the same ones so often you started to have the memorized.
[He's less excited to explain the witch leg. If only it was something as cool as a future weapon.]
It was a decoration. A cheap plastic decoration. Pretty humiliating.
[He thinks about it.] Like being in a marketplace, the vendors trying to get your attention for wares. But in the middle of plays. The monks being less subtle about their indoctrination, instead of through storytelling, just breaking the story to sell things? Do I understand that right? Only, it's not all religious, sometimes it's the opposite. Food. Perhaps?
[A soft grin about the decoration.] I don't think it's that bad. Someday you might be able to look back and tell the story with a laugh. But perhaps not today. It's very unique at least. You can say no one else will have done it.
It sounded more interesting, until you said they had religious ones too. [BLECH!]
[A small grin.] Always. Make it interesting. Have you gotten food yet? You shouldn't start drinking on a completely empty stomach. Come on, let's get something. I'm sorry I missed Arthur. I'll bring him drinks later if he wishes.

[Somehow, dying inside the store doesn't seem to be enough of a deterrent to keep him from going back.]

okay if we fade this one here?
Date: 2022-10-27 04:27 pm (UTC)[That actually does make him feel a little better about it. Nobunaga receives a grateful smile]
I'll take unique. Dying in a new way on this ship might actually be an accomplishment.
Yes :)

thank you!
Date: 2022-11-05 12:32 am (UTC)[He stands to go, then pauses and gives Nobunaga a big-eyed puppy dog look.]
Hey, thanks for coming and everything. I already feel better.
