Bird to bird, I agree with you [ they nod!

... and after a moment, reach out and pat the practice sword on the flat side of the blade. good...sword entity. ]

Do our practice ones have names?

[preowned]

No... but that would not stop us from giving them one.

[guestservices]

Oh, let's name it!

[preowned]

[ he kneels down to get a better look at it. ]

What do you think when you hold it?

[guestservices]

[ they tilt their head, letting tsuru do that, turning their wrist a bit to get a look at the blade themselves. ]

In general? [ hmmm... ] That it's been a while since I've held one. That's probably not what you're asking, huh?

[preowned]

In a lot of cases, swords are named after... events, something about their creation, the people they were associated with...

[guestservices]

So... maybe give it a star name? Or something hotel related?

[ they sound thoughtful

and after a moment, reach out to very gently try and bonk him in the shoulder with the sword. ]

1/2

[preowned]

Star... maybe Sirius? The dog st--

[preowned]

[ bonk ]

I've been attacked.

[guestservices]

[ they look at the sword. ]





Craneslayer.

[preowned]

I cannot argue against this.

[guestservices]

Think that's a pretty badass name.

[ they laugh, big and hearty, pleased with themselves!! ]

[preowned]

Then that is what it shall be called.

We can see if that name will be lived up to.

[guestservices]

Maybe try not to get slayed.

[ tsuru has made it to week 1 ]

Do you know a lot about stars, Crane? You mentioned something about the dog one.

[preowned]

I am not sure if I am extremely knowledgeable... it's mostly things I've heard from humans, over the years.

But I do think it's amazing that no matter the culture, everyone always looks up.

[guestservices]

Huh. That's right, you and Jiji are really old.

[ they seem thoughtful, giving the newly named craneslayer a swing. ]

You're right, though. None of these constellations [ a vague half gesture at themselves ] are familiar to me, but I definitely know what a constellation is.

[preowned]

Right! Some things are just consistent, no matter where you are.

Funny. How that happens.

[guestservices]

[ amused: ]

Guess you would know, huh? Oh wise sword spirit.

[preowned]

Oh!

Call me wise again.

[guestservices]

[ i love this icon.

anyway, they very dramatically put their hand to their heart. ] Oh wise crane sword spirit, tell this humble follower your wisdom!

[preowned]

Ah! That could bring a tear to my eye.

[ it doesn't, but he wipes at his eyes as if it did. ]

[guestservices]

[ they think this is hilarious, actually. ]

Thank you, thank you. I'm a very devoted follower. [ you are very devotedly full of bullshit, aquila ]

[preowned]

I suppose we can call this sect...

Birdism.

[guestservices]

Caw, caw.

[ terrible ]

What's the first law of Birdism?

[preowned]

[ he has to actually think about it.... ]

You must always fly in style.
