Shot 45: Resting Scene at the Deck

Oho, that wind sure is howlin'. Feels like I might actually see a carp ascendin' to the heavens to turn into a dragon.

...Nah wait, that wind ain't just noisy. It's... It's...

It's crying.

Think so? Don't seem all that sad to me.

Yeah. Definitely crying.

I'm pretty sure it's a kind of "vor Freude weinen."

Huh!?

That's, uh... I dunno what it means, but it sounds real cool.

Vor Freude weinen... "Tears of joy." An expression of joy and trembling anticipation.

Can't you sense this new heat shaking the islands beneath us?

Hell yeah, I can. But that don't mean we can do anything about it.

You're right. It would be stupid to hold each other back under the guise of friendship.

All we can do is wait. For we are the ones pressing ahead through the same battlefield as our companions.

Hell yeah. And we're doin' it all with this noisy wind blowin' right in our faces.

(Bad. Ass.)

(So cool.)

Heat? What are they talking about? It's cool up here.

I'm glad I changed outfits and came up here after my meal.

It's a perfect...paraíso...

So I'm going to take a nap. (Zzz)

We should be ashamed of ourselves.

Indeed. Our Master is in trouble, and we couldn't do anything to help him.

I feel as though I've brought shame upon the entire Fuuma clan.

We need to make sure we are ready for the next time, so as not to repeat this mistake.

We must be able to rush to Master's side at a moment's notice and know that we can carry out the mission.

Yeah. The Fuuma clan does have a flying jutsu or two...

...but they're all a little too old-fashioned to be of much use in a situation like this.

We need to come up with a new Fuumaryu Musasabi jutsu to suit the modern day.

Fortunately, this is the perfect place for that kind of training, so I say we make the most of it.

What sort of improvements should we try to make first?

OkaY, fIRSt off...

...why don't we...install a leg booster...to increase speed?

(That sounds a lot more daunting than I would have liked...)

Lord Kashin Koji, no! We can't turn Lord Kotarou into a karakuri! He's healthy enough as he is!

Oh. Good POint.

Whoa, Boss. If you're standing on the railing there...

...you must be planning something wicked! Are you gonna jump off? I'm game if you are!

Don't worry, I'll even let you go first!

Where'd that come from!?

Hey! Knock it off! Don't push me! I said don't push me! I'm not joking!

Then what ARE you doing there?

Wahahaha! What else? This wide-open space is perfect for an outdoor Atsumori rock festival!

I'll call it "The Nobbu Aerial Atsumori Fest - This Is Way Better Than the Shimizu Stage for This Day and Age - The Legend Begins."

This is going to be awesome!

Trust me, I know all about how singing and dancing in a really windy place is as rock 'n' roll as it gets!

Wooo! I can't wait to see you perform a midair mosh pit stage dive!

Are you nuts!? Even a packed house isn't going to have a midair mosh pit! How would that even work!?

Although... I feel like something's missing. Something I saw before...

Howling wind... Rock 'n' roll... A trailer...?

That's right. I remember someone wearing nothing but a long necktie that flapped in the wind...and clothes made up of belts that barely covered anything...

I think those are the backbone of rock...

So, what? Are you saying it doesn't feel like rock unless you're wearing belts and ties that leave little to the imagination?

When you put it like that...I really don't know what I'm saying, either.

Well, I'm already in a skimpy swimsuit, so all I need now is a necktie or a belt and I should be rockin'!

All right, someone hurry and find me an accessory! Revolutiooon!

Mmm, that's the good stuff! Nothing like the feel of a crisp wind on bare skin!

It'd feel even better if I was buck naked, of course, but I guess this'll have to do.

Besides, this way, the sensations on the skin that's exposed are even stronger. Whup, here it comes!

Is that it? C'mon, hit me with the hectopascals! It's okay! I can take it!

Th-there! It's a real rocker!

Hello, Galactic Polizza? We have a suspicious person on the premises. Can you deliver an extra large pie on the double?

I'd like to be ordering deliveries instead of making them, but oh well!

When you order delivery from the abyss, the abyss orders delivery from you. Or something like that.

I have no idea what it means, but I think it's safe to assume I can at least grab a side of wings or something.

So on that note, I've heard your cries of distress, and I'm here to help! Where's the perp!?

Hmm. Dealing with guys like that isn't really my responsibility.

This seems more like a job for the authorities than a space detective. Need the right person for the right job and all that.

Well, no matter. Now that I think about it, I don't need more rock accessories.

I just need to get on the stage!

I've got the wind, rock, a skimpy belt, and boosters for pyrotechnics...

That's everything I need to make this outdoor concert happen!

Although, if I could ask for even more...

...it'd be legendary if a surprise lightning strike or electrical fire caused the whole show to go up in rocking flames.

But I guess that kind of stuff's out of my hands, since it all depends on the weather!

All right, let's get this show started!

...Grr. Too noisy.
