Terrible hugs

[unwielding]

Haruji

[unwielding]

[ he has taken note of his brother's absence— it's hard not to when jirou is loud and large and they share a room— but that's definitely not what's bothering him right now. or at least it's not why he's hugging people randomly or embarrassing himself.

haru's prodding around tarou's forehead and assessing, he assumes, his current state, but he doesn't feel sick. just very uncomfortable. and a little warm and fuzzy. the laughter is decidedly the worst part. it's worse than anything ever. he's laughing right now. ]

Jiroutachi ... [ heheh— SIGH ] I don't believe this is about him.

Kagami

[unwielding]

[ tarou isn't allergic to nice and warm but he's not used to it either. it feels weird. he doesn't even know this person. and this person is obviously not well. tarou is as alive as the spirit of an inanimate object can be. ]

Why do you believe that I am dead?

[ he has a heartbeat you know. also he's not letting go yet. hug is not complete. ]

it turns out i'm slow too

[finatic]

[The hug should have been complete before it even began, if you ask him. Kagami just keeps squinting up at him, mildly bothered.]

You look dead. I can tell when a man's got no life left in him, see... [he shrugs with HUG DIFFICULTY--] So? What's this about?

Sinning

[unwielding]

[ if tarou were the type, he might be a little concerned that everyone is startled and/or frightened of being hugged by him or hearing him laugh. however he isn't. he's the type that is right along with them and feels that this is very uncomfortable. at least kousetsu is nearer to his own height so it doesn't look like he's completely swallowed him up in his arms.

you are very warm though, kousetsu. this makes tarou chuckle. to his chagrin. ]

I don't know. I can't stop.

so much sin

[heiwana]

[ Kousetsu looks up at the other sword when he, gasp, chuckles?! Yes there is something definitely wrong with Taroutachi. But if the other sword doesn't mind it then Kousetsu will not intervene. As it were he just allows the oodachi to continue to hug him until he deems it good enough to stop. ]

...I see. Many others have been affected in the same way. It is...probably another strange effect that Ceres has laid upon us.

[ Totally just talking casually when being hugged, yep. That's how Kousetsu rolls. But, really, being hugged wasn't so strange to him. Souza was very physical and he often was embraced by his brother. So he can deal with this...for now. ]

Ishtar

[unwielding]

[ a giant sword doesn't want to hug people all the time either, especially since he's so used to not being touched at all. it's really strange holding this girl close in the biggest bear hug of them all. eventually however he seems satisfied and lets her go again. he looks embarrassed, he can't even hide it. ]

I don't know the reason.

[xroyal_bratx]

[ Yes, somehow it was awkward to be bear hugged out of nowhere and while she was kind of walking too. Again, she's totally okay with it since she's used to it. Though, she gave him a worried look when he looked really red.

Ishtar lets out a breath and a small laugh at his reaction. In a way, the giant sword was kind of cute. ]

Ah, well, I guess it doesn't matter right? Since, it looks like you're okay now and all. Hehehe, that was a uh-- new experience.

The greatest sin of them all

[unwielding]

No.

[ it was weird and. weird. luckily he doesn't really know who this is either aside from a look-alike who says a lot of things tarou doesn't understand.

he seems to be speechless at the ... compliment??? to his lips, reaching up to touch them lightly as in shoujo and BL manga when one marvels over a magical kiss. except he's not really doing that. ]

Thank you ... yours are nice as well. [ ????????? ]

it's not greatest sin of them all it's katsura

[bakudanma]

_{[ ????????????????????
RED ALERT. EXCHANGING COMPLIMENTS. ]}

They're not nice, they're Katsura. 100% organic Katsura.
_{[ Zura swallows, but continues this conversation like a business meeting. ]}

I'm glad we have similar feelings on this subject. Do you often use chapstick too?

Illya

[unwielding]

I haven't seen your paper.

[ the chart. whatever. he doesn't know what it is. best doctor in the house, obviously. ]

Then why are you in the hospital? Are you playing a game?

[worldcup]

I don't know. I just woke up here.

Midare

[unwielding]

Jiroutachi is not here. Please endure.

[ it will all be over soon, midare. tarou thinks it's really weird as well. his back is going to start hurting at this rate too, bending over for all these hugs. ]

Kanda

[unwielding]

[ and tarou just sighs as they're freed of each other. ]

How do you know if you would feel it?

[ what if it's like ... too subtle. no, he has no idea. ]

Anyway. This is not reality so it doesn't matter.

[overgrowth]

Because—

[ right, the video game thing. kanda scowls all the same. ]

Still matters. I don't trust any of this.

Shiho

[unwielding]

Fuumu —

[ sighing so deeply, he still comes toward her as if drawn like a magnet. he really just wants to turn around and go on his way but alas. whatever he's been stuck with (not that he even really noticed) is strong. ]

I have tried, I cannot stop.

[ when she bumps into the nurse, that's his window of opportunity. at least he can try to pass it off as saving her from the nurse. yeah. but he scoops her up in his arms anyway. ]

[good_ideas]

[Shiho doesn't even have time to turn and run before she's being scooped up into a hug by some huge stranger. Her mind is resisting (and wondering what was wrong with her), but she's returning the hug with one of her own even as she blushes red, her face pulled into a frown.]

L-Let go!

[.....never mind the fact that she's still holding onto him and that she should be trying to lead by example.]

Cashew

[unwielding]

[ rudest sword in the bunch tbh. ]

There is only one way to stop it.

[ by submitting of course. believe him he'd try something else if he could! the backward shuffle doesn't stop him at all. ]

[adornmental]

[He worked hard for this title.]

Will it really stop or are you just gonna crush me or something?

[DON'T LOCK HIM INTO AN ETERNAL DEATH EMBRACE.]

Vietno

[unwielding]

[ yes, somehow his fuumu has turned into some kind of nearly-villainous chuckle. it's horrible. and feels unclean. ]

I see. That is good to hear.

[ MORE CHUCKLING. and then more. and then it turns into giggles. ]

Nakigitsune

[unwielding]

[ maybe he can squeeze the hiccups out of him. ]

I'm sorry.

[ really he is, saying this as he wraps his arms around both of them and cries on the inside. ]

Ookurikara

[unwielding]

[ He's just going to keep coming closer, perhaps lunging forward when he gets close enough. he will capture you if it's the last thing he does. besides maybe it will wear off if he hugs enough. ]

It can't. I would not be coming after you otherwise.

Hideyoshi

[unwielding]

Yes, that is correct. [ he's glad he doesn't have to explain it at least. he's not the greatest at it, especially since he's so serious and literal. at least in this case he's able to refrain from saying that the other swords aren't much like him at all even though they are all swords. ]

Originally we were summoned by the saniwa. I do not know why we're here in this place now.

[ ... ] You are familiar with us. Why?

Walter

[unwielding]

I am a weapon. [ but that's not really useful is it. and it's not like he's just going to hand over the sword version of himself. he doesn't think this one could wield him anyway... ]

But there are some supplies in the closet over there. [ he points a little down the hallway. he only knows this because he went there looking for somehow to leave. ] There are no actual weapons, probably.

Ada

[unwielding]

[ well apparently the hug isn't scary enough to stop the hiccups, but tarou is probably scared himself anyway. what a nice hug though. she is soft and squishy. ]

I am embracing you, I apologize.

[ he frowns despite what they're doing. ] I have been doing this for quite some time now.
