It makes me look cool! And it's just a different way of carrying him.

[cranekin]

("him"

his attention is caught.)

Tsukumogami?

[intertwinedfates]

More the reverse. He's a shinki - a human spirit who becomes a divine instrument for a god. He's my partner.

[And pseudo-son.]

[cranekin]

Eh? So the tool of a god instead of the god of a tool.

What an impressive sword. He must have a name then?

[intertwinedfates]

Exactly! His name's Yukine, his vessel form as blades is Sekki. He's the best, both as a weapon and a friend. I couldn't ask for a better companion.

[cranekin]

Yukine. What a fine name.

(He'll make sure to remember it but then this also makes him think--)

Is he here with you in this world?

[intertwinedfates]

Thanks. I named him myself.

[Is it possible for a wistful tone to come through via text? If it is, it'd be now.]

Unfortunately not. I'm hoping that means he's back home, safe and happy. And not minding my absence too much. Though he's probably fussing about being left to handle things on his own, heh.

[cranekin]

If he's as reliable as you claim he is, then surely he'll be fine.

(He likes to think, at least.)

But without your regalia, what about you? How will you assist the people in this world?

[intertwinedfates]

True! I know I can count on him to hold down the fort.

[It's something he has to believe in. Have faith in his boy.]

Uh.

Good question. Guess the first thing I need to do is get myself a damn weapon. Otherwise whenever these kaiju strike again, I'm gonna be shit outta luck!

[cranekin]

(...)

You don't have any way to fight?

[intertwinedfates]

[...]

They didn't exactly see fit to furnish me with a new weapon when I arrived.

[cranekin]

(Hmmmmmmmmms.)

I have a spare sword.

[intertwinedfates]

[!!! Excitement!]

Would you mind if I borrowed it? Just until I can get my own?

[cranekin]

Being unarmed in this world is dangerous so I don't mind.

If you break it, I'll never forgive you, though.

[intertwinedfates]

Wow, it's that important to you, huh?

Don't worry, though - if it means that much, I won't let anything happen to it.

[cranekin]

Of course, all things deserve to be taken care of.

Tell me where you are and I'll arrange a delivery.

[intertwinedfates]

Fair enough. Weapons especially since we rely so heavily upon them.

And I'm in room 021 for Everlight!

[cranekin]

They rely on you, too.

(Maybe a strange thing to say but he isn't going to explain.)

Really? So close. I'm usually in 002 but I'm out right now.

(Still, that doesn't stop the white hummingbirds in his room from receiving his order. They get to work! The door to room 002 in Everlight will open up and in a few moments, there will be a tap-tap-tapping at Yato's door, They'll deliver a plain sword to him. If he sticks around long enough, he may recognize it as one of the elemental swords brought LILITH provides but its been stripped of whatever upgrade gives it power.)

[intertwinedfates]

Also very true! It's a mutual relationship and all.

[Perhaps their reasons for agreeing are different, but it's a sentiment shared completely.]

Hey~ Whaddya know? We're almost roomies!

[Though because he mentioned being out, Yato isn't expecting the knock on the door, much less a delivery via hummingbird! All the same, he thanks them profusely and admires the sword as relief floods him; it's good to be armed again with even a temporary weapon, despite there being no ayakashi here to try eating him.]
