Schmittchen | Toshirou Hijikata

[mayoninofukucho]

Contact: This journal or schmoechen#2732 on Discord!
Character Name: Toshirou Hijikata
Canon: Gintama (This is just one of those zodiac memes going around on Twitter, but I feel like it gives a nice little glimpse into Gintama's atmosphere!)
Info: What if aliens invaded Earth in the 19th century (and we only looked at how that would affect Japan)? You get a wild mix of samurai stuff and space ships, CD players, MMOPRGs, and other 20th/21st century staples. In that chaotic world Hijikata co-leads the Shinsengumi, the shogunate's special police. He's a bit of a short-tempered bastard with a mayonnaise obsession, but ultimately he stands by his principles. I've got some first impressions here!
Magics & Familiar: Elemental & Death | Crow Tengu (Arashi)

Desired CR: I'm always up for anything (I mean it)!! Hijikata has some really great solid CR, and he got to know many new people last month. While a bunch of threads are still ongoing (forgive my slowness, work knocked me back a bit again this week!) he has a good impression of everyone new so far, and I'm curious to see where those relations might go too if you'd like to keep throwing them at each other!

Known Plans: There's so much good stuff to do again this month..!! Since the death mages who helped with the mirror are getting a reward I may make a prompt for that in case anyone would like some nice downtime in Celliwig. In terms of TDM prompts Hijikata will try to stay away from the mandrakes since he's wary of them (and also because he's preoccupied with the murders around town), but if anyone would like to do that with him, please rope him in!! I'll happily tag out. Of course he'll join the lake caravan to Elphame and end up going under, only to wake up with a new cecaelia bottom. Now Hijikata is one of the least horny Gintama characters (which says a lot), but his time on Prismatica did a number on him and left him with a... "special interest" in tentacles, so I'm playing with the idea of having him dawdle and end up stuck like that for a while for maximum awkwardness. He'll deflect and lie as hard as possible if anyone notices how compromised he is, but maaaybe there's a chance for some NSFW shenanigans there. I'm not yet sure if I'll have him back to normal in time to join the events at the castle. We'll see!

Regarding the Questboard he'd need to be roped into preparing the farmlands for Pomona's Day, the #MerlinQuest, and the Carcinus culling, mainly because he's so focused on the murders (and the roping doesn't have to be IC; just let me know if you'd like him to make himself useful on any of those fronts with your character and we'll make it happen!). On the dark web side of things he'll be available to protect, escort and/or defend animal mages who are being persecuted. I may just hit him with different fun animal parts at that stage, probably bull traits as another call-back to Prismatica. Why should he get a break?

One more thing I keep forgetting! The other month he lost his sword when he got into a kerfuffle with a fuath in the lake, and the Lady of the Lake kindly retrieved it for him, but not without first pretending that she instead found two (far more valuable) other swords... and since Hijikata was happy enough to take either of those as a replacement for the time being she gave him a slap of the wrist for being so unfaithful to his sword, in the form of a spell: the first thing that is said after someone is struck by his sword will come true. If anyone would like to have that be the cause for shenanigans, hit me up!

ALSO please never hesitate to poke me if I haven't responded to your tag after 3 days or longer! If that happens there's a 99% chance that Dreamwidth ate the notification!

Other: He won't even stop short of animals.

HELLO I am just here to say that I am enjoying the thread with Hijikata a lot, and I'd love to toss 2B at him more in the future. :)

Please introduce this clueless android to the strange wonder that is mayonnaise someday...

[mayoninofukucho]

I'm having a lot of fun too!! Hijikata actually has few female friends (he's a big brother / mentor figure to Mukuro, but the other women who know him well already tend to find him baffling at best and offensive at worst due to his weird priorities and bad manners - which I find hilarious, but makes him complain a little), so I'd love for him to get to know 2B better!

He absolute will introduce her to mayonnaise, and if she likes it (can an android extract anything useful from it?) he'll consider her a friend just for that alone.

[conciliant]

YOU KNOW I'm not 100% sure how she would feel about mayonnaise, and I don't think she would know how to feel either, so all the more reason to try it!!

If he wants a girl who doesn't think he's either baffling or offensive, but really really cool, then 2B is the gal. I'll keep a lookout for Hijikata things in the very near future, maybe at the next event later this month, but just wanted to toss a hello your way for now. :D

[mayoninofukucho]

Don't boost his ego too much, 2B, he'll get a big head!! I just put up his August post here, so feel free to toss 2B in there if anything catches your eye - no pressure at all though; we can just as well take it easy and wait until the August event!

[conciliant]

I am going to take it easy until the August event! Trying to catch up and stay on top of my inbox until then, but thank you for the link anyway!!! 💖 Maybe if nothing pings me at the event, I'll hit this up instead if you don't mind late tag-ins!

[mayoninofukucho]

That's a good plan! There's always way too much to do here, haha... and time flies, too!

[concierto]

HI IM JUST HERE saying how much I love their CR ... aaaaaaaaaaa

[mayoninofukucho]

ME TOO Venti really lights up Hijikata's life... I think our current threads may be winding down as they're getting back to the hotel respectively parting ways at the hospital, so if you have anything on the agenda for them you can count me in! No rush, though, we can finish those first.
