Futou-no-kuchinashi - 沙夜

“Hijikata-san was scary, wasn’t he?” “Well, he was practically a demon. A demon!”

Saya is adamant to let her hair grow out just like Okita-san, even though it’ll take years--her hair grows rather slow.

He looked surprised yet happy that his friend was so eager to drag him into a new adventure, though he wasn’t sure what she wanted him to do, “You want me to go to play, or throwing the coins like I did the other time?” The boy recalled the moment when he performed the ritual in a very unsual way like his father taught him to do, and how gladly Saya clapped after seeing such performance, “If you want, I can to teach you how doing it!”

Making his way through the high stairs upon reaching the torii or entrance of the shrine, Tetsunosuke gazed Saya again and gave her a signal with his hand so the kamuro may follow him.

“There, I’ll show how to do it!”

As she continued her way up the stairs, she made sure to not trip over her kimono. The sound of hard wooden sandals filling the air around them with their clacking on the solid stone steps of the stairs. If they were to play a game of stealth, she surely wouldn’t win with the noise they made. Her eyes still bright and eager as they were at the top of the stairs. 

In a firm nod she replied back when he mentioned the coin throwing. It was quite spectacular to watch, even more exciting to learn it herself. When he said he’d show her, she clapped her hands together and cocked her head. Quickly she slid her hand in her long kimono sleeve and stuck out her tongue while she searched for her small purse and to take out a coin for him to use. She wasn’t going to allow him to spend his own if he were to teach her this trick. Nope.

There!! She got hold of her small purse and took out a coin while offering it to him--more like demanding him to take it…
