[They'll have to stretch it out from a safe distance, behind a splatter shield...
He's just waving in the direction of the paparazzi now, though.]
So let them take it! [They can deal with a potentially toxic exploding alien caterpillar!! And then when it eventually evolves into Mothra and wreaks havoc on the shoot, they can just book it and pretend they have nothing to do with it!] Go, go - I'll make sure you don't lose your spot or whatever.
[What's Taroutachi even doing here, anyway?? A mystery.]
[ Can you not see the conundrum here!! There is no winning. But maybe he ought to try. Surely nothing could go wrong with them taking one picture. He sighs. ] Very well, I'll go.
[ and off he does. as for what he's doing there, it is a mystery. not even he knows. ]
But Kashuu won't just leave him to his own devices in the Foreign Land of Photographers, so he sticks nearby when this punk oodachi ambles off. Gotta make sure he delivers the caterpillar safely! Gotta make sure he doesn't somehow come back with more weird aliens instead... Luckily (for Kashuu?!), the paparazzi seem focused on Taroutachi for now, so he's able to wait in peace.]
[ The photographers don't seem pleased that the caterpillar is getting returned. It was so cute! So perfect! (Tarou doesn't understand) They do try to pass off a bigger animal, but Tarou quickly and awkwardly turns away from then and shuffles away back to Kashuu's side. ]
It is done. I suggest we leave before they follow.
There are people here who have...strange and magical powers. Haru-san is not alone in those regards. I believe they have helped him a great deal during that event. [ Kousetsu nods as he looks around, serious as always, but there's a relieved look on his features too. ]
...yes. It is similar to a...cellphone, as some people have told me. [ He doesn't know what a cellphone is exactly but he just accepts it. ] It can call and even write letters to people instantly. It is...fascinating. Perhaps you can find one that is...big enough for you?
[ Poor Tarou. That phone is way too small to be easy for him to use. But he looks back at the other, nodding in agreement. ]
I would be grateful for that. Sayo...is probably not used to seeing so many humans. [ He doesn't do well in these sort of cases. ]
Strange and magical powers? [ Like a whole bunch of saniwa? Interesting.
And Tarou pauses for a moment to think those next words over seriously. After a few seconds, he looks back at Kousetsu. ] I have no idea what that is. [ Indeed. A "cellphone". Sounds like some kind of foreign food. ] But I will look into it further if it's very useful.
[ And hopefully find one that's big enough for him to use. If not, he'll be making a lot of use of the call button or something. ]
That's true. I will be extra careful then if I find him.
(OOC: I made a minor mistake calculating the IC days, so it's actually less than two weeks. I don't mind explaining it away as time passes differently for swords and/or Sayo's mistaken.)
Souza-niisan said it's something like time travel.
[Which is something Sayo can understand. If it's like time travel, that might explain the time related discrepancies, maybe.]
[ Tarou personally hasn't seen Souza, but he admittedly hasn't been looking either. Jiroutachi is his biggest earthly concerned, especially since Jirou is kind of wild. ]
He said you may not like being around all of these humans at once.
[ But it seems like Sayo is doing okay to him? Not that he'd... really be a good judge of that.]
Intro
Cashew
[ still. an alien fish. what even is that.
— and let's not stretch the caterpillar out. it might explode toxic yellow guts on them. ]
The person I got it from is no longer here. I'm surrounded by these people instead. [ gesturing to the paparazzi of course ]

They will try to take my picture again.

Midare
A ... smile?
[ it's like asking a fish to do the splits. ]
I see no reason to smile right now. I'm not overjoyed.

[ lowering his sword. ] I will not hit them again.
But perhaps I can escort you to safety.

Kousetsu
[ but then he shuffles the cerevice out of his pocket ] Ah. This? I know little about it. The buttons are ... small.
If I see your brother, I will tell him.
[ as for his own, well. ]
There's not much I can do, but I will try to keep Jiroutachi from drinking too much right away.
no subject

Sayo and the Bug
Two weeks. But no one said you were gone.
[ as for the other part, he waves a hand. ] It's fine.
... I saw one of your brothers.
Re: Sayo and the Bug
Souza-niisan said it's something like time travel.
[Which is something Sayo can understand. If it's like time travel, that might explain the time related discrepancies, maybe.]
...Did you see Souza-niisan or Kousetsu-niisan?
no subject
Yes, I see. I suppose it makes sense.
[ considering how they all got summoned to the citadel too. ]
It was Kousetsu. He said he'd not seen you.
no subject
I'll look for him.
[So Kousetsu's here. But what about Souza? He doesn't want his other brother to be in this situation as well.]
no subject
He said you may not like being around all of these humans at once.
[ But it seems like Sayo is doing okay to him? Not that he'd... really be a good judge of that.]

Hinata hdu
[ if he's not going to take it, he may as well explain everything! ]
hdu!!!
[Is that a good explanation?]
no u
[ he looks at the caterpillar again. ] This is not at all like the alien creatures I have encountered lately.
[ all it's doing is wriggling slowly in tarou's palm. maybe it just isn't threatened by him ... somehow. ]
no u!!!
I guess it's not... actively trying to do anything...
[Maybe he's being too paranoid? Again?] It might not be as dangerous...
X(
Perhaps I should put it in the grass.
[ let it roam free and hopefully not turn into godzilla. ]
