Otae-san...it's been so long since I've heard your sweet voice. The only memory I have left of you is the scent of your body that still remains from my habitat beneath your bed. Some times, after your baths, the smell is particularly strong and warm.

What was it that drove you away ?? Was it my masculinity?! It must be! I simply am too manly for one woman to handle, but I believe in you. If there is any woman that can tame the wild package that is Shinsengumi Commander Kondo Isao, it is you!

And to prove that under this hardened exterior remains a softer, more sensitive side, I have composed yet another love haiku:




so sweet is her face
man parts feel glad to smell her
while she is asleep

[Page is covered in tear drops]

I couldn't keep my word... I couldn't protect them... sorry....





[ooc: Reacting poorly to both the explosions and Gintoki disappearing]

T-toshi ...they won't stop bleeding...

I present to you a new addition to the Shinsengumi's line of products! Now in friendlier colors to create the image of a more approachable Shinsengumi!

Shogun-approved pine cone genital guards!





Hurry up and order before they sell out!

...And as for half-naked girl who may or may not want to kill me, are we still on for our date ? I have to prove my manliness to the scary lesbian Sasaki-san!

See Toshi! It doesn't make you any less of a man!


AND FOR EVERYONE ELSE, WE PRESENT TO YOU SHINSENGUMI-ISSUED PINE CONE NIPPLE GUARDS FOR ALL YOUR LACTATING NEEDS!

Sougo, I'm putting you in charge of making and selling them to protect the people of Rivelata!

Toshi, Itou-sensei, I hope the two of you are safe during your jungle excursion! Remember: jaguars smell fear and urine and urine in the form of fear!

Yamazaki, how are the repairs coming along?

Angst!Shinsengumi, we need you to assist in the repairs and the making of the pine-cone nipple guards!


[ooc: Started from this conversation. So sorry, Toshi >_<;;]

Okay, men! This is a formal roll call for all members of the Angst!Shinsengumi and the Fuchsia-13!Shinsengumi!

Reveal yourselves, so I'm not confused anymore!

I would also like to make a request to the Yorozuya. The Shinsengumi have ...problems with aim, and we would like you to clean our bathrooms for us. I think you will find the payment very rewarding and satisfying.


It's been so long since I left behind my beautiful and sweet Otae-san. For everyday I am absent from her, I will compose a haiku to honor her greatness.

A sea separates,
I will come to you, my love
And do you one day.

...Either I am lost or this bathroom is more overly elaborate than previously suspected... No, it must definitely be the bathroom. If the Shogun says this is the bathroom, then it is the bathroom.

Shogun, your bathrooms even come equipped with travel logs! I am impres- WHY IS THIS BLEEDING?!!! WHY IS IT BLEEDING AS I WRITE ?!!! THIS SHOULDN'T BE BLEEDING!!!! BOOKS DON'T MENSTRUATE !!!



...I-I suddenly don't have to go the bathroom anymore..
