[ WELL... AFTER FIRE SHENANIGANS... ichiban will actively seek out iwa tuesday morning. when he locates the sword, he gets down on all fours and bows his head to the ground in shame. ]
[ he looks up at iwa once he replies, brows deeply knit in consternation. it's this genuine, almost in-your-face expressiveness that was missing from his features yesterday, what made everything feel so wrong in hindsight. ]
Just because I wasn't fully in control doesn't mean I don't still feel bad about it. I could've killed you, man.
[ LISTEN... IT COULD STILL HAPPEN... you don't know... either way, with the formalities out of the way, ichiban gets back up to stand at his full height, though he does still stoop a little thanks to the embarrassment. ]
You're tellin' me. It was so weird to just... not have any feelings. Like, at all. Happy, sad, surprised, confused—nothing.
[ he laughs, but without the usual boisterousness. ]
I wouldn't say insensitive, just... interesting. You've had emotions like that ever since you born, but I'm still getting used to it. Sometimes when it gets too overwhelming, I still wish I could go back to not having a heart. It was easier then, at least for me.

About the fire...? [ frowns. ] That wasn't your fault, Ichiban-dono.

Even if I'd died, I wouldn't have blamed you for it. You didn't start the fire.
...I'm glad you're feeling like yourself again.

It would be for someone like you.
