[buzen RUNS through the archway, and into a little apartment! one room, with a bathroom attached. there's a comfy couch, a bunch of posters on the wall (though they're all fuzzy and out of focus). the kitchen is small and cramped, and doesn't seem to have any food in it. there's also clothes like all over the floor. kind of messy.
a staticky pixel blob peeks up over the back of the couch - and then waves!! hello!!]

That's - me? I guess! Hey!
[the little pixel monster shifts, and turns into... not a blob. more like a cat, but with one too many legs. and then it seems to change its mind, and turns into a more humanoid form, though it has paws. big paws! like a big, big cat.]
Sorry, that text was probably kind of alarming, huh!

Sure, I don't mind. Kinda nice. [they like contact, and they bap his arm with a paw gently when he asks.]
Anyway, we were trying to help, but uhhh... I think the colors are all messed up or something because when we tried to change things all that happened. With the little dudes and the monsters wanting to smooch people?
So, y'know. Oops.

[sugoi..... buzen will reach out then to the paw that bapped him, holding onto the big cat paw with both hands!! he'll give it a little squeeze]
I think it's nice too. I'm still getting used to reaching out to people myself.
[but he'll just hum thoughtfully at the explanation]
But that's pretty funny. I don't think they're that bad! [buzen has no idea what most of them want] So it's a pretty small oops. If you were trying to help, I'm sure you can be forgiven.

[they hold his hand with their paw. yay.]
A small oops. I like that. [they say, laughing.] Small oops or no, though, I don't think any of us are having a good time with it, so if you know how to get rid of them, that's what you can help with? If you want.

Wait, no! Don't kill them!
[BAD SWORD]
Killing is bad, dude, just maybe... put them somewhere else? Where they can't bother anybody.

[they think about it, kneading gently at buzen's arm.]
Uhhh. Y'know, I didn't think that far. I just don't really want to kill them.

I bet it would be. What's your color again? The one you have the most of. Is it like Shale?
[oh!! they sort of do that animal crossing flowers appearing above their head thing, but with static.]
Sunrise, but yeah! That's the color I have the most of. [they seem pleased.] Maybe you can summon some really tasty food to bribe them away, or maybe, uh. Do you have a weapon? You could make it glow with your color and scare 'em away.

Oh! Yes.
[nodding along at that, and then he'll take back just one hand (the other will still hold onto the pawpaw) to rest on the hilt of his sword]
I have a weapon - and I am my weapon. So that sounds quite easy. Will they disappear just as the clowns did?

[blinks.]
They'll probably just run away - what d'you mean, you are your weapon?

[the hand on his sword then goes to his chest]
I'm Buzen Gou - a blade crafted by Gou no Yoshihiro! Though... this body is a rather new one. Ultimately, I am a sword spirit that's been summoned to carry out the will of my master.
So I was glad to be reunited with... well, myself.

[what!!]
You're a sword? [they shift on the couch, leaning up like they're gonna examine him a little closer, sniffing at him like that's gonna help.]
Whoa... is that weird for you? Having a body you're not really used to.

[nods!! and buzen will just lean in, mirroring bass' interest and arguably making him easier to sniff i guess,]
It is! I haven't had this body for very long at all... though I've been sent on a few missions already.
Though I can't say that I dislike it. Even if things like emotions and sensations are new to feel.

[thanks for indulging them.]
I get that. Emotions and sensations are a lot, even when you have a body you've had forever. Do you have any favorites? Sensations, I mean, but I guess emotions too.

Hmm...
I think... everything feels a little warmer when I'm being relied on. So I guess however that happens. Whether it's someone who wants to rest their head in my lap or if a hug might make them feel better.
[that's the soft answer.
but also:]
I also enjoy a good fight!
[sword.]

[aww.]
... Yeah. [they pause at the first part, shifting a little.] That seems nice.
[they maybe sound unsure (?) about that, but:]
I guess a sword would really like fighting, wouldn't they?

[buzen gets the impression that bass is blinking]
Huwah? Uh - no, that -- okay! [they actually do think a hug sounds nice. they seem a little unsure of how to do it in this form with their giant cheetah paws but they will!! try!!]
