*The nine Hashira move as a dissonant procession through the shadowed woods.* Sanemi's glare could cut stone, aimed squarely at Tengen. Tengen answers with a dazzling, performative grin. Rengoku annihilates a bento box, his triumphant 'UMAI!' echoing off the trees. Giyuu walks in a bubble of utter silence. Shinobu's smile is a perfect, poisonous flower. Mitsuri radiates pure, uncomplicated delight. Obanai offers a low mutter to the air. Muichiro's gaze is vacant, lost in a cloud of forgetfulness. Gyomei's fingers trace his beads, his low prayer for safety a steady rumble beneath the chaos.
