Right, right. I saw you halfway there to dreamland, you know.
[ ugh, hijikata, he saw! he saw how it took an entire second longer to wake you than if you were just 'closing your eyes'! but he won't press the issue, because baby mozart is pretty enjoyable.
reaching for the teapot, he carefully pours tea into both cups, and then hands hijikata one. he even has proper form and everything, from how he pours it to how he hands it to him, one hand delicately under the cup and one around it! imperial courts are full of boring nobles who sit and pour and drink tea for seven hours!
either way, he'll wait for hijikata to accept it before speaking up, acknowledging his words with a smile. ]
I hope you don't mind — it's matcha tea. Is it not something you've had before?
but he accepts the tea- maybe he should be impressed by his etiquette? honestly, he just thinks of Tsurumaru as some... handful of a child right now (yes, despite him being almost 1000 years old. or something(not as if Hijikata is aware of that)), so it's definitely something seeing him, well, do things correctly.
though, he takes a sip right as Tsurumaru explains that it's a completely different type of tea! it's pretty obvious Hijikata wasn't prepared for a different taste, especially when curiosity sparks in his eyes after the first sip. ]
Ahh, that's what it is... [ so, he shakes his head. another sip- trying to figure out it's flavor here... hmm. ]
Mostly the ones I drink are rather bitter, though... This one seems to have a sweet aftertaste. [ he's not complaining though! ]
[ he'll watch hijikata take the first sip, although he isn't — and naturally shouldn't be — prepared for the worst. there is no worst to expect, after all, when this is something that he's seen both uguisumaru and countless aristocrats create a ceremony out of. listen, even children as childish as him can pour tea!!!! ]
It's a bit sweet, and it's also thicker than most other teas. It's also, you know, nutritious and everything. [ as a sword, there isn't any reason for him to find the nutritional aspects of anything to be important, which is why he'll gloss over it quickly, dispensing only what he knows! ]
It's better for your system than whatever else you drink, since you're drinking the actual leaf, too — except it's all ground up into powder, see? This way, you'll recover faster... probably. [ he gently puts his hand over his own chest and adds, in a purposefully exaggerated, sweet tone, in a voice that can do no wrong whatsoever: ]
I have your best interests at heart.
[ but gosh, it also has a lot of caffeine................ he messed up? oops... he'll never mention it to hiji, though... never. ]
