Tsukumogami...? Mm, I don't believe so. We only have animals and plants. However... [Thoughtful.] My grandfather did send me a kimono once. It had a brilliant sakura tree on it.
[His voice trails off a bit quieter, almost sadly...?]
...The detective and I watched it bloom together. It was very beautiful.
I can see why, they are extremely pretty. [He's a furry and a hippie...] It was a wonderful sight.
[His eyes lower under his lashes, and then glances away as if he's trying to decide how to answer. When he looks back, his smile is small and wry.]
A nuisance. Mr. Leon Orcot, the LA detective. He always jumped to violence, his room was a disaster of a mess, and he was a big womanizer. An absolute scoundrel of a man. He was always trying to accuse me of being a criminal.
[Me having to explain LA to all these people from LA wondering if my lore is wrong.]
They bloom only for a short amount of time. I suppose my grandfather was sending us a lesson in enjoying the beauty of life before it's gone so quickly.
... we have one, in our Citadel. It's probably funny, to have sakura trees around with their short lifespans around a bunch of blades that are only around because most of them have existed for so long.
Though I guess even in these forms, we're still pretty new to it all... It's probably poetic.
[D is learning so much about Matsui and Buzen without even asking a lot of questions. IT'S VERY INTERESTING TO HIM. He's a plant and animal boy, but there is something fascinating about things like this too.
Really, anything unrelated to humanity ruining lives and planets.]
On the contrary, I think you all may enjoy it as the detective and I enjoyed it: something extremely wonderful which only lasts so long... yet renews each year. That way, you remember these things when experiencing the life around you. That all your actions, even so little, can leave a lasting imprint on the ones who live the shortest existences. Over and over.
[yea! he doesn't have to care! buzen also is like. the least judgmental person in existence, which is also pretty funny. but he smiles back]
I think you're right.
I can't say if I really do the same thing... but I want to hope so. That at least all the little interactions with people, the time that we get... means something. Even if it's just to one person.
So - I guess I'm glad, for the next couple weeks we've got together.

But he did help me a few times.

... sounds complicated. I'm glad he was okay enough that you could watch the sakura with him, at least.

but buzen hums thoughtfully at that.]
Is that how you feel doing your work, Dee-san? With your pet shop or... anything else that you do.
[he doesn't know what d does at all, help me]
no subject
Something like that, yes.
[Maybe the lasting imprint is not so...........hm. Anyway! He smiles gently at Buzen who is not human, so he does not have to care.]
