A long chapter of aaaaangst. Also swords. Mmmm... (Sorry, Gin-san, but it's hardly my fault you're 超格好いい~ under the right circumstances...)

like facing Hijikata True, their

Missing a full stop?

Fight scene fun! And such Shinsengumi fun~ I love how you're showing their ambivalent relationship with the Yorozuya; knowing their interests aren't always aligned, but respect there all the same. And oh, Hijikata actually calling out a warning to Okita~ ♥ And mentions of Saitou and Harada - I do so wonder what a Gintama-universe Saitou would be like ^^;.

"Yes," Gintoki said, "so lonely it'll be like dying, but no one ever dies just of loneliness, except in shoujo manga. And this is shounen, you know, shounen."

"But we want to stay with you, Gin-san."

"Do you really want us to go, Gin-chan?"

"No," Gintoki said. "No, never."

T_T Your dialogue is so very Gintama.

Hee, yeah, had to get some Shinsengumi references in there! I am torn between dying to see Gintama-Saitou and knowing it would break my brain (he's my favorite char in Kenshin, so... ^^;)

I will confess, though this story is strictly gen, if I have any pairing in Gintama it might be HijiOki (well, after Otae/Kyuubei, but that's pretty much canon, so XD) (...although I'm also partial to Okita/Kagura; obviously I am very confused ^^;)

I am so glad you liked those lines - that was one of the first scenes of this story I wrote, and probably my own favorite.

(and thanks for the typo catch - foolish periods are so tiny, they fall through the cracks and get lost! ^^;
