but mikazuki seems pleased, and he will lead the way toward his room. he... needs a second with the lock and key, because he truly barely knows how to use it, but they get in eventually.
mikazuki's room is a very typical japanese-style room with tatami mats and shoji screens! in fact, it may be a bit difficult to place as a bedroom at first glance as the main pieces are a set-up for tea and entertaining guests, some seat cushions, and the way that the opposite wall seems to open up to reveal the upper half of the crescent moon. there is the illusion of the room extending out onto the engawa, so that you can have a seat to admire the grand view even though it looks like the world simply drops off beneath your feet.
off to the side there is a now-empty sword stand, and the primary decor consists artfully arranged ikebana pieces. a desk sits in the corner with all the regular amenities, and a one of the shoji doors will part to reveal a closet. inside there is his selection of clothes as well as a rolled up futon.
the aura of the room is simple, but everything is of the highest quality and finest craftsmanship. it is truly just artistic minimalism and a giant fucking moon.
he turns to yoo joonghyuk with a smile.]
There was a sword here - [himself, which now rests at his hip] but I am not in the habit of collecting my comrades.
[ Damn... It is the citadel room. Joonghyuk leers at the scenery seen beyond, not so much at the moon but more so at the stars. Niah, however, doesn't show similar distaste. He sniffs at the floor a bit before padding around a little. ]
It's simple.
[ Based on his tone, it isn't an insult. Aside from the view which he obviously dislikes, he seems pleased? ]
[aka if he's just gonna trust yoo joonghyuk's description of events
which, sure, might as well for now]
I am but a crescent moon, and so perhaps I do not have the place to critique the stars and the heavens. But regardless of propriety, I feel no kinship for beings that will keep themselves aloft by believing everyone else lesser.
... It is not uncommon to form attachments to those you served, or the allies you acquired. Even if events would turn you against them, those memories do not stop existing.
[ But he understands it's different for people, then swords are also different. ]
Oda Nobunaga, however, is known to be ruthless and vindictive. [ So he gets it. ] What do you think of humans?

mikazuki nods in agreement though]
It is. I find it comfortable.
... have the stars done something to offend you, Yoo Joonghyuk?
[why so leery]
no subject
I dislike them.

Similar to how Bradley Bain dislikes the moon? Or for different reasons?

... I have never been quite so high above - but I consider watching humanity something of a gift and an honor.
I have never witnessed the course of one's life that is worthy of mockery or derision.
no subject
But in the end, no one lives their life to be watched and enjoyed like a drama.
no subject
Ha ha ha, I consider it a matter that has little to do with nobility.
... but you are correct. Then I, too, share your derision for your stars.

[ So he knows historical Nobunaga, technically. ]
I haven't met his incarnation. Scenarios are concentrated in their own countries before they become international.

[he shakes his head faintly at that, idly amused but.]
... I am not someone who regards someone as saintly or incapable of fault, simply because they have laid claim to me at some point in history.
My understanding of humans, while imperfect, still cannot be painted in such broad strokes.

... I am fond of them, and I rather like them. But I wonder if that is too simplistic an answer for your question.

[ So it works out for them! ]
