Oh - like exercise? Ahaha, no, if I wanted to do that, I'd just go for a run!
[but he's just going to shift so that he's balancing on one hand, then tapping his own head with his free hand]
But I thought maybe I'd think better if I got some more blood to my head - no dice so far, though. It's weird to still have things I didn't remember... I was hoping the memories would come back!

[he nods along]
Mm, I get that too. I've never really picked a team before - I've just been assigned to them. Even if some of my comrades call me Leader... it's not like I chose them, or intended to lead them either.
Are you trying to be strategic about it?

Assigned to them?
[she's curious, before she goes on]
Yeah. It's like... There's different ways I could approach it, right? I could try to ask people I think I get along with, or people who I think, logically, would make the best teammates. Or - people that might need the most help is an option, too. But all of that is assuming anyone I ask doesn't already have arrangements, or would agree. I already checked with someone who said no.
[continues to fuss]

[continues to fuss]
Mm-hmm. Aruji would assign us for missions.
[briefly, but he'll also listen politely and attentively as she fusses!]
Whoa, someone already said no? That's fast for them to figure out stuff that quickly... I mean, all you can do is try your best, right? [a beat] Um, I say that, but to be honest, Matsu's more particular than I am so I'm kinda letting him choose our team...
[buzen really handed off the braincell to the other gou (which is fair, bc buzen would say yes to anybody and forget that teams can be a max of four wouldn't that be a mess,,)]
How about making a list?

Whatever is asked of us - sometimes we build roads, fix castles, get hired as soldiers or bodyguards… All of it’s to protect people, so.
[he doesn’t have too many qualms about it! but he nods along at that, grinning]
Yeah! So who’re you thinking for your team? You could just ask ‘em in order of who’s got the most pros and least cons, right?
[he is. such a simpleton.]

Oh, so it's like odd jobs? Or - well, I guess being a bodyguard is a little more serious than just an odd job...
[nods, thinking out loud]
Shenhe's the one who said no already - not because she already has a team, she said she wasn't interested in forming one. If I had my choice, we'd have me, one healer, someone with the drift ability, and someone who can manipulate one of the elements. That seems like the most balanced team. But then, to be realistic, I need to think about who might actually say yes, not to mention which of those people I actually think are competent and could get along with.

Haha, well I think there's a bigger goal but... mostly we just do as our Master says. That's what we were summoned for, after all.
[lightly, with a little shrug. sometimes you don't question free will,
though at the explanation, he laughs a little.]
Shen-san said that? She's funny - I hope she changes her mind though, since it sounds like she'll need one. But I think that's a good line-up of options! There's a lot of Drift and Healing abilities, right? So hopefully it's not hard to find teammates there.
I guess you could pick based on who you like the most...? Or who you think would have a good dynamic with the rest of the team. Squabbling definitely makes stuff harder.

Pretty strict boss, huh?
[concerning...]
Yeah. Not to mention, there's forty people in the list, so if she decides not to team up with anyone, there's going to be three people who are also out of luck.
[nodding to herself]
That's a good place to start... Though I get the feeling it's mostly going to depend on who says yes and who has other plans. But either way - thanks for your help. It's nice to have a sounding board.

Mm, I wouldn't say that. We get a lot of freedom when we're not on missions. We just finished up a whole play for fun! There's just some stuff we gotta obey.
[easy-going, but he's always easy-going. but at the rest of the explanation, he nods along easily enough]
I don't think she'd want to hurt anybody... well, there's still time. Hopefully she'll be able to figure it out.
But hey - no problem. [he grins, just as cheery] I don't know how much help I really was, but I like listening to you too. I'll always be around if you need anything.

Haha, more the latter than the former. Gou no Yoshihiro has a number of works, and Matsui and I are two of 'em. My history is tied with his, though, in a way that it isn't with other swords.
So I guess it's easier for me to be next to him - or maybe that's where I want to be, more often than not.
