Talking in public will only lead to more trouble so let's continue our conversation right here.

I'm afraid you've made quite the mistake. But it can be rectified. I need you to make me a promise. Or perhaps it's better to call it an oath.

Something that lords and soldiers did long ago. My family used to be samurai, or so my father said and he would tell me stories all about our history. I always found it quite fascinating but nothing like that could ever happen in real life. Modern times aren't like that. But... things are different here in Ryslig.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, I am no lord, though my family name is quite impressive... I am just a simple man that wants to live quietly. Despite all this would you be willing to help me? Can you make me a promise?

I understand.

An oath? Kira trusts me with an oath?
Your family came from that far back, hm? It makes me very happy that in some universe I didn't kill the ancestors that would become part of your family tree. Very happy, indeed. Sometimes, it's nice to let them run off and survive.

I will be willing to help you. Of course, I will be willing! What is the promise that you want me to make? And this means that you aren't that mad at me, then?

Mhm. Unfortunately the family tree dies with me. But there isn't time to dwell on such things.

As you know, or should know as I have not kept it a secret, that I am a Fourth follower. And I have recently outed my own priests to help move things along. But as always, speaking out has put me in a bit of a problematic state. Unfortunately you claiming my innocence is not very convincing either.

There are a lot of fingers pointing at me and it's quite troublesome.

I was hoping that you would swear an oath of protection to me. I understand that this seems a bit unnecessary since you've already claimed to help me and kill any and all those that might do me harm. And I appreciate it. Truly I do. My actions against the priests may have lost me some dear friends so I need your help, now more than ever. And an oath feels so official and proper, and I like to do these things by the book.

But unfortunately, it's a bit more complicated than just saying you'll protect me. Because I need you to do this no matter what. No matter what people say or accuse.

I can count on you, correct?

Ah, but most importantly... Protection means protection. Not a revenge killing later. I'm not interested in dying so soon again. So let's prevent that, shall we?

[Is he annoyed at Mitsuhide? A little. His position was already a tad bit precarious so this is just a good reason to ask for a terrifying protector that will do his job and do it well.]

[ This isn't what he expected at all. He would have thought that it'd be something like "please tell me everything that you're going to post about me before you post it," but this is completely different. Completely.

Shootie is someone that he's living with, but Shootie is crossing some lines. It's time for some tough love and to abandon him for a little bit. Just little enough for him to realize the error of his ways and return. It's much like when Kingo would get a little too mouthy during a fight, he wouldn't show up when the confrontation actually happened so Kingo could learn to respect what strength he has and remain the kind young lord he knows.

So. ]

I would be most honored to pledge such an oath to you, Kira. I am sorry that people are being difficult with you, but I hope that they will come to their senses when everyone who is causing problems is dead.

We will prevent that. I shall stay at your side. Yes, I will stay at your side.

How wonderful to hear such things.

But

I do wonder...

If I were a conduit would you still protect me?

It's a silly thing to ask, is it not? It's tiring it really is. The very thought makes me feel exhausted but indulge my curiosity all the same.

If everything you are saying turned out to be false and I am exactly what you're saying I am not, would you still protect me?

[ ? ]

I pledged an oath to you, Kira.
Of course, I would still protect you.

But more than that, more than that, you've placed a lot of faith and trust in me.
I cannot find it in myself to want to betray someone like that. Such is the problem of living with people, I suppose! You develop morals! Even if mine are exceptionally twisted!
Hahaha!

[ And didn't he say so in that dream? If the whole world turns against Kira, Mitsuhide will still be his friend. ]

Excellent. I was just curious Mitsuhide. Sometimes loyalty is wishy washy, and while I know you wouldn't do that to me sometimes you find yourself compelled to ask what normally is a silly question.

Forgive me for asking such nonsense.

You're an excellent friend.

You don't like favors and doing things in return, so I won't say anything about paying you back. But you must stop by for tea once again and you should tell me about all the possible conduits and God followers you've killed.

You are wonderful friend, too.
And Kira still sounds like Kira.
Speaking with you puts me at ease.

Everyone is starting to sound like me.
Drunk on blood and the promise of slaughter.
If you asked me earlier if I would enjoy this, I would say "yes" because everyone can understand me better.
I yelled lots and lots about killing people, because it is fun to do.
But people agreed with me and I felt a little uneasy. Just a little.
How strange, right???

But Kira sounds like Kira and so I know that you're still yourself. So I happily accept the cup of tea!

You're not incorrect. People like to win so they'll fight tooth and nail to do so. No cost is too great when victory can be had. Especially in a scenario like this. I'm sure each God has made fanciful promises to those that follow them. And this is a perfect opportunity for one side to make great progress. I know I can't help but feel the same compelling urge. To see Kujo Jotaro and Kishibe Rohan tortured and forced to stay here and never return home fills me with such great pleasure.

I'm not afraid that I'd step out of my usual nature and do thing I wouldn't normally for a chance at that future.

It's not all that strange, I don't think, I'm only human after all. And this is human nature in its purest and rawest form.

I am glad to hear it, Mitsuhide.

Do you mind if I ask you a question? Nothing too personal and I think I know the answer to it already. But why haven't you joined a side? Is it because you don't wish to serve anyone but your Lord Nobunaga?

I suppose so.
This is war, then, isn't it?
It is.

That question?
Yes, that's the reason and a little more complicated than that? Just a little!
Indeed, I do not like the idea of serving anyone but Lord Nobunaga!
But when I heard of your goal, I thought, maybe I should join the Fourth to help?

I already don't like the Fog Witch for messing with Katsuie.
The only one allowed to manipulate and use Katsuie is Lord Nobunaga.
She's touching his things and Katsuie likes any lady who is nice to him so he doesn't see anything wrong with the LIES she's telling him.

BUT if Lord Nobunaga ever comes to this land... if he heard I was a follower of another God...
He would tell me that I'm a traitor and cease to see me as part of his army.
He would attempt to kill me on sight.
He would dismiss my very existence!
He'd most assuredly understand that Katsuie is just being lead astray by pretty words and the attention of a woman.
But for me, for me, he wouldn't understand at all and hate me for it!

For my own peace of mind, I can never join anyone!

Edited (... how did i use the wrong word. i'm.) 2017-03-20 07:54 (UTC)

I expected that was the case. And I do understand.

I can only hope you don't think any less of me by being aligned with the Fourth. I do say I don't view it as any sort of religion. Perhaps a cult? I was told this was the best way to get home and even if that isn't possible for me, he made me a delightful promise so I do owe it to him to fulfill my end of the bargain and do what I can for him.

But I don't feel any love or fondness towards him. I think we're both using each other in a way that works best for us.

Kira-Kira ♡ ♡ !!
The reasons why I do something will generally be different than others' reasons! The reasons why you do things is because it will benefit you in the end. What better reason is there to do anything? HahahahaHAHAHAHAHA!

So no! I don't think less of you! I don't think I could think less of you! The perils of friendship, I suppose??? The only one I think less of these days is Katsuie. But only because he is away from our lord and gets himself a big head about it! He is getting a cold shoulder until he apologizes on his knees for his transgression against our king!!

But really, I can only judge those of the Oda if I am allowed to judge anyone at all.

So Kira, you are doing everything right and doing everything as you should! Don't doubt yourself!! ♡

Did you know when you type my name like that it means glittering or... sparkling in my language. キラキラ So maybe, don't do that.

But regardless of you butchering my name into a J-pop song title, I am pleased to hear it. And if Katsuie ever begs for your forgiveness please allow me to witness it. Because I think it will be one of the most glorious things I'll have had the pleasure to witness. Please do not deny me such a treat.

But this is all good to hear. And I am glad I do not risk disappointing you in the future. I've been very worried about my friendships as of late with all the bad things people have been saying about me but I was never once worried that you'd stop being a friend to me.

Needless to say, as a man who has not had friends before coming to this place it is good to know you will not be going anywhere. A little sentimental on my part, yes, but I try and be an honest man.

I didn't know! The language evolved a lot since my time! But Kira is always glittering and sparkling to me! (°◡°♡).:｡

J-Pop?

If he does it, I'm going to record it, too. I'll put it on this network! Everyone will know about it! You can be the one to witness it in person, though! I promise! ღゝ◡╹)ノ♡

Humans are always fickle about humans. I do not understand it! I really don't understand it. Kira is true to himself and that is what is most important. The right people that should be your friends will appear before you, eventually! I believe it! Don't lose hope, Kira!（´・｀）♡

I'm glad you think that but don't call me that.

J-Pop are Japanese popstar idols. Ask Josuke. He likes garbage.

Good. I look forward to this glorious day. I live for Katsuie's humiliation because it necessary and amusing.

Here's another question for you and I ask because of the way you talk about humans. I understand that you are a windigo now but weren't you once a human too? Back in the world that you came from you had to be, yes?

Ok. (๑´╹‸╹`๑)

Okay! ヽ(´ω｀○)ﾉ.+ﾟ*｡:ﾟ+

Right? I'm so happy you've come to understand my way of thinking of things, too! I really thought it'd be nice to coddle and look after Katsuie, but then I thought, his humiliation's a lot more fun if he's just going to complain! But I said that. I said that and I say it again!

(*ﾟｰﾟ)ゞ I fear I don't like lying to Kira, but about this question, can I not answer it?

Edited (cause felt should be known it was done) 2017-03-23 00:15 (UTC)

When it comes to the.. um, how would you phrase it? What's the word... Tough Love? When it comes to the tough love you show Katsuie, I have have always understood it. And I approve.

Oho~? Now that's interesting~ But I won't pry even though you've made me even curiouser

Thank you for approving!
Lessons are best when someone's bleeding.
It doesn't matter who.
Just someone needs to be!
Hahaha!

I'm very touched that Kira's so kind to me and won't pry!
But still, I wonder, not saying is still saying, I think?

I certainly don't disagree.

Not saying is not saying. Just because you're saying something doesn't mean you're actually saying something. If you're not saying what is being questioned then you're not saying anything.

If that makes sense.

[It doesn't when you phrase it like that but maybe Mitsuhide will get it.]

I thought you might!!

That's correct!
That's indeed correct!
So long as it isn't a complete answer, no one can say that I answered anything!
Thank you!

That is why you're my precious trash friend!
Because you were thrown into the garbage.
So by proxy that makes you like garbage, right?
But you're still a treasure to me!
So maybe half-garbage, then?

I'm sorry. Did I read that correctly. Did you call me your trash friend?

I wonder, oh, I do wonder, why you would call me that. Perhaps, and I'd hate to think this, you're making light of the fact that my body that was unjustly murdered while I was in a weakened state was tossed in a trash. Mitsuhide, that's not what you would be implying would you?

That would be in bad taste. Deplorable. And it would, in fact, make me very very angry.

[ It was the span of a few seconds Mitsuhide realized that he let himself get a little too comfortable and wrote something he really shouldn't. ]

I would never!

[ Short and sweet is probably best in these situations. Probably, probably, probably! ]

But you did

noooooo?
that doesn't sound like me

WELCOME TO YOUR PRIVATE CHANNEL, MITSUHIDE AKECHI. FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION, USE 011.27.954.55 * USER has joined 011.27.954.55 <AUTOMATIC RESPONSE, DO NOT RETURN>** Yes? Yes. This is our channel. Him and me. Who are you looking for? Perhaps a third face? :) No, no. Probably not. Okay. I will wait. I humbly apologize. That was confusing, was it not? That man and me share this channel. It would be draining otherwise. If you are in need of Tenkai, please let me know. If you are calling him, I wonder if that is wise? Hahaha.
