[Ah yes, the wonderful Die-jo. It's a place for the swords to be proud of, and for Hijikata to be proud of getting their very own glass Jiji put on the list of non-fightable opponents. It's pretty busy though, and for now Horikawa has only been standing idly at Hijikata's side for a while as he observes the spars occurring here and there for the past little while. He isn't exactly restless, so to speak, but when a thought crosses his mind he doesn't think to shy away from suggesting it.]

Hmm... Hijikata-san, the weather sure is beautiful today, huh? [Emphatic look out the window. Look at those spring cherry blossoms!! Nudge nudge, wink wink.] Don't you think it would be nice to walk through the park while we wait for a chance to use the grounds?

[Who appreciates a setting like this more than the Ever Poetic Hijikata, after all?]
