*Hunh. He's back to looking for another Weapon now that his partner left the city. It took him so long to find Koujurou, would it take him longer to find another partner?*

Are you...Auron? I'm Yamazaki, the katana you talked with a few days ago.

Yeah, I remember you. Nice to meet you. *He offers a hand to shake and with Auron, it's always a firm grip.*

Have you ever resonated with anyone else before? *Auron has resonated with quite a few people so if this guy was a complete beginner, Auron might be able to help.*

*Yamazaki shakes Auron's hand and curiously looks at him. He does not look like a sadist or an idiot or Itou-kun, so it's OK.*

Nice to meet you. No, I've never tried to resonate before. I don't really know how to do it. But it's not something shocking and painful and humiliating like turning into a sword, is it?

*His very first transformation was caused by Okita.*

Turning into a weapon shouldn't be any of those things unless you tried to throw yourself down Shibusen steps.

Resonation is trying to match and compliment your strength with the other person. Transform into your sword form and I'll show you.

It was terrible for me. And maybe one day I'll be forced to throw myself down from Shibusen steps.

*Actually he concentrates on imagining a certain person forcing him to do it, or else...and as he scene appears in his mind he turns into a sword immediately. Hope Auron doesn't mind the popping sound and the light blue cloud.*

Well...I guess I'm ready. *The sword's voice is apathetic and he can't pronounce the letter R properly.*

*He must have gotten some advice from some people trying to mess with him, Auron thinks.*

All right. Let's give this a try. *First he holds the sword by the hilt and as expected, the sword weighs a ton.*

Right now because you haven't tried resonating before, it'll be hard for someone to lift you up. You have to concentrate to match and compliment with the other person, like I said. *Auron closed his eye and started feel out for the younger man's soul wavelength.*

Try to imagine that you're trying to put your palms against someone else's and you're pushing against them at the same strength they're pushing against you.

What? Am I fat?

*Okita is a pro at messing with simple minds.*

Alright, if you won't mind a fat sword I give it a try.

*Yamazaki closed his eyes and imagined as he reaches his palms against someone he treasured, his palms touches hers and they meet gently pushing each other, warmly and...and in the next moment Okita stood there, grabbed his wrists and grinned like an evil imp. Yamazaki squeaked.1

EEEEEK, let me go, let me go!!! Someone! Auron!

*The resonance had actually been starting to work as the sword started to weigh less. Then Yamazaki flipped out and screeched and the sword nearly dropped out of his hands.*

What! What happened? Am I hurting you or something?

No, no, it's not you who's hurting me...

*and he didn't want to talk about it.*

It's just...I saw odd things.

*Is his fate to suffer of these nightmares whenever he tries to resonate with someone? Yamazaki wasn't sure about it, but he had to give it another shot.*

Let's try it again! Just...it would be good if you talked to me while doing it, if it's possible.

Alllllll right then. *That was odd as anything he'd seen. Is this guy unstable?*

Try concentrating a little more. Whatever's distracting you, push it away for now. *Auron worked on his resonance, trying to strengthen it up again.*

*Yamazaki wasn't less unstable as most of the cast of Gintama....When Okita appeared again he just pushed him away with full strength and what he felt when he did it was kind of addictive. He reached out his hands and now he managed to grab the hands searching for him. He squeezed them and smiled without noticing it.*

*Okay, this felt like better resonance now. Auron was able to lift the sword up to chest height and not have it waver too much.*

I'm going to try swinging you around a bit. You ready?

Just do it, Commander! *Auron was something like Kondo for Yamazaki now. But Auron was less stinky and he had more brain.*

And if I threw up while you swing...wait, swords can't throw up, can they?

*Commander? Well, whatever helped this guy out.*

I had a sword partner before and he never mentioned anything about motion sickness. As long as you hold onto the resonance, you should stay pretty solid and protected. *And with that, Auron lifted the sword into a higher stance and took a few experimental swings and thrusts to get a feel of the Weapon's weight and balance.*

It's good to hear.

*Yamazaki was a bit bored of the eternal jokes on throwing up and co. in Edo. As Auron swung him he felt awesome, self-confident and...sharp. He felt like he'd want to bite something with full strength. It was not exactly the same thing but something similar.*

Hey Auron, this is better than I thought! I hope you like me as a sword! It's a great feeling! Don't you want to spin around a little?

*He guessed Auron wouldn't want to spin and playing a carousel for him, but he just had to ask.*

Spin around? *Little can he fathom the kind of world Yamazaki comes from. It's sort of the complete opposite of the kind of life Auron's had. Which might be a good thing.*

Let's see... *Auron gripped the sword with both hands and whipped the blade around in a full kata, striking high and low and turning around to strike behind and to the side.* How are you doing?

Er...

*It was hard to put in words the feeling, really. But Yamazaki managed it.*

Let's make sushi of the monster of Loch Ness! No, let's go and make sushi of Okita! I am a damned shark, a blizzard, a venomous snake!

[Well, Auron wanted to know how he was doing.]

And you? Do you like this sword?

[Oddly enough, no one noticed the carousel-man and his shouting sword.]

*Clearly you haven't been here long enough to see all the random partnerships.*

The sword handles good enough. *But what is he even saying? It sounds like a rally cry of Wakka leading the Besaid Aurochs. Someone help him, that's exactly who this guy reminded him of.*

But this is the first time you resonated? You aren't too bad, but it might help you more if you tried resonance with more people. *He could feel his Soul Armor trying to cover himself and the Weapon but it wasn't quite working, possibly because the resonance was good but it wavered sometimes. Practice would fix that up.*

The sword is honored by your opinion. *Wakka? Yamazaki can't read minds but if he could he'd be sure that that wakka guy is the one who's in Auron's world for the sole reason to annoy the soul out of Auron.*

This is my first time I tried to resonate but I'll practice a lot and try..no, I'll be an awesome sword! Next time I'll resonate with others, and...

*...he protects Sheena from the Madness.*

...and I'll protect Sheena, a very nice girl I know from the Madness. And from everything else.

(OOC: Here you is! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kata)

Well good. *Auron sets Yamazaki down so he can transform back.* If you practice a little more, I think my Soul Ability will finally work. That's always a way for me to tell the highest kind of resonance.

Sheena, hunh? *Is she aware of this guy? He sounds pretty serious about his intentions.* She is a fine person. You friends with her?

Be sure I'll practice. *promises Yamazaki as he transforms back to his human self.* I wonder where my sheath was...*he murmurs. It must be one of his arms, or feet.*

Sheena? Do you know her? *he blushes and looks away* I hope we're more than friends. I...get to go now, sorry!

*He runs away in embarrassment*

Hunh. *Does Sheena know she's got an admirer? It's amusing. As for the resonance, he did feel something positive from it. Maybe the next time, if he hadn't found a better partner, Yamazaki might consider a partnership. As long as Auron could get his Soul Armor to work.*
