- tried gardening, wasnt his vibe. Plus after his death bc of the corpse smell he couldnt even smell the flowers and other plants
- hates any garden chores , especially lawnmoving. Peter either had to make him do it or just do it himself. Now that Jack has his own house,he does lawnmoving as rarely as possible
- likes oreos, but more than dave and prefers the cookie. Also destroys them in front of kids
-likes to eat toothpaste
- short or long walks are a relaxing break to him
- did small pranks on peter and dee regularly (would've done bigger ones if dee didnt stop him from that) .
-MUNCH THE CRAYONS. MUNCH THE WOOD
- likes only a few species of mushrooms (when Kennedys bought mushrooms they would usually be these species)
- after Peter died there were still some origamis left and jack kept them wherever he lived. He felt less lonely that way. Kind off.
- he also kept dee's favourite plush after she died.
A friend of mine is taking his vacation in Nagoya this month, so:
I knew this person back when I started my history studies back in 2014-2015, so we have some interests in common, one of many interests is antiquities. Three days ago he said that he is going to visit some museums around the area, and since he know that I recently got in the Tourabu fandom, he said that he could try to get some photos of the antiquities in exposition.
Last night he sent to me a photo of the Gunsen Naomasa in the exhibition case in a small flyer announcing the pieces exposed at the Okazaki Castle Museum (it’s pretty close to Nagoya, so he considered in paying a visit). I noticed a little faded and worn-out cord (I assume it was a sanada-himo due to the pattern, but I’m not sure) by the gunsen’s side. Today by the early morning he said he wasn’t allowed take a photo of the Gunsen Naomasa, but he could do a video conference with me, so I was able to see it. Again, the same cord was there, so I finally asked: what that cord is doing in the same display case with the gunsen? According to himself and a museum guide, it was probably used to keep the fan closed, since this one was usually left open and was hard to keep folded. “A regular bag used to those weapons would tear apart easily, it’s still sharp.” He said quoting the guide.
He said that he plans to visit the Tokugawa Art Museum in Nagoya by Sunday, so I’ll probably share a bit of information on the swords at the said museum.
Why I’m saying it?
You all must have been noticed that I like to do some drawings after a new headcanon pops up.
Since the cord was meant to just hold the tips of the gunsen and then stuck it on it’s bag, I decided for a special kind of karada-shibari called “Shinju” (pearl), or simply “bikini binding”. It’s a kind of knot which is meant to hug a woman’s breasts and usually is used to give the same effect as a push-up bra if it’s worn over the clothes. I stated in the past that Naomasa has the structure fit to wear a hime yoroi (a specific light armor meant for smaller samurai and onna-musha) and uses at least three layers of clothing on the citadel, so I decided to pick a specific Shinju binding which makes her looks bulkier, but it’s still modest and not overly ornamented.
“But you could simply make a rope-like thing crossing over chest or neck.”
Considering that there’s actually a person named Matsudaira Naomasa (one of the many, many, many Tokugawa Ieyasu’s grandchildren) and this person was one of Kikkou Sadamune’s masters, I couldn’t let it slide. It’s a joke which was served in a silver plate.
(Honestly I wasn’t going to answer it, but I’m a thirsty bastard. I think that I’ll have to sort by toudan because some of them shared masters, but I don’t think they would share reactions.)
Considering that Touken Ranbu follows a more faithful description of the historical figures than other media, you can expect some good shit. That’s the only reason that I answered this ask.
Also thanks to everyone who wrote on FGO wiki because I still didn’t laid my hands on the game yet.
Furiwakegami Hiromitsu:
Oda Nobunaga
“... I see no difference. She only looks shorter and somehow cuter.”
Okadagiri Yoshifusa:
Oda Nobunaga
“I have the uncomfortable feeling she’ll do the same as he did when Nobukatsu-sama failed at Iga. But with a sword instead of a pencil... That’s some kind of scenario that I don’t wanna see.”
Himezuru Ichimonji:
Nagao Kagetora
“... She looks... Stunning... As always...”
Yamatorige Ichimonji:
Nagao Kagetora
“Five star servant? ... Impressive.”
Kanaibou:
Ibaraki-douji
“She is so cute! Wait... She can’t lift me with this body, right? Doesn’t matter! She is so cute that I could die!”
Monohoshizao Nagamitsu:
Sasaki Kojiro
“... The sword in his sprites it’s me, right? Should I let my hair grow? ... Maybe I should act more like an ikemen.”
Terutsubame:
Sasaki Kojiro
“Kojiro-sama!! He’s so nice here! Nee, Monohoshizao! Play the NP video again! Again! Again! One more time!”
Ageha Muramasa:
Oda Nobunaga
Mochizuki Chiyome
“My former masters are cute girls? I’m okay with Oda-han being cute, but why Mochizuki-han is under-dressed? I was carried in that chest and I can confirm she wasn’t so flat and I never touched her skin directly! And this curse thing... This isn’t because of my reputation, right?”
Kamaitachi:
Mochizuki Chiyome
“She’s scary... And she seems so sad! I don’t wanna see my former master sad!”
The list isn’t that long, but... That’s a hard one. You know... Having a young master before doesn’t really mean they will be a good parental figure.
Sorted by how much a child/teenager had influence on them:
Uraku Kunimitsu: Toyotomi Hideyori since his coming of age ceremony when he was 8 years old until his suicide at 21. Then to Maeda Toshitsune and Tokugawa Tamahime’s son Maeda Mitsukata from his coming of age ceremony at 13 until his death at 29. Total: 13 years with Hideyori, 16 with Maeda Mitsukata: 29 years.
Raikirimaru: Tachibana Ginchiyo. Given to her after her father’s death when she was 6 years old, as well the head of the Tachibana clan. It remained with her until her death at 34 years old. Total: 28 years.
Naomasa Matsudaira: Matsudaira Hirotada, soon after his father’s death until his divorce with Okichi. Then Tokugawa Ieyasu since the already mentioned divorce until his coming of age ceremony. Total: 9 years with Hirotada, 14 with Ieyasu: 25 years.
Jiseinotanzaku: Nakano Takeko, probably when she first went to Aizu at 13 years old. Remained with her until her death at 21. Total: 8 years.
Ebina-Kokaji: Toyotomi Hideyori from the moment of his birth until his coming of age ceremony and marriage with Senhime. It was assigned to be Toyotomi Kunimatsu’s when he would do his coming of age ceremony, but you all already know that Kunimatsu died when he was seven years old. Total: 8 years.
Note: almost no one of them would be a good parental figure, so below is the list to the ones who are capable of taking the role of a parent (but we all know that the official Sword dad is Kogarasumaru.)
Himezuru. Not Joking. This tachi is a walking kotatsu! He could be called “cuddly mama bear” because of his protective behavior towards the tantous and wakizashis under the Uesugi clan. He actually has some ties with the ones under the Ashikaga clan and Imperial House of Yamato, but since he was simply a unnamed Ichimonji Tachi, his ties with them aren’t that strong. This trait may be related to Kenshin Uesugi who was well-known to be a gentle parental figure to his two adoptive sons. However... Himezuru would probably be the caring mom who punishes misbehavior unfairly.
Naomasa Matsudaira. She is a bit strict, but she knows how to take care of a child just fine. She isn’t clingy as Himezuru, but isn’t strict as Raikirimaru. She tends to scold a bit too much and never straight-out compliment, but when she does some praise, the child sure deserved it.
Hoshizukiyo Masamune. Masamune blades are known to be endowed with Goro Nyudo Masamune’s gentleness, he also got a lot from Takeda Shingen who was know to establish pacts of trust with his retainers. Hoshizukiyo would be a good doting father, but would have problems when punishing the saniwa: he simply wouldn’t be able to.
Raikirimaru. Not exactly a strict parent, but he expects that a child can do the same as Tachibana Ginchiyo. So, he has a pretty high standard. Can be loving almost everytime, but still wants the saniwa to be at least a half what he remembers about Ginchiyo.
Parental Figures, but would need some supervision:
Monohoshizao Nagamitsu. He is used to control violent children. Still isn’t really used to rise one.
Kozuke Kunimitsu: Domestic Father. Yet the only experience he has with a child was with Toyotomi Kunimatsu by cutting his head off.
Tadamasa Hosokawa: It’s used to be surrounded by children, but everyone knows this guy needs supervision to practically anything he does.
Jiseinotanzaku Nagamitsu: Would squeal at minimal cute things. Needs emotional support.
Kanaibou: More like a grandma. She would be one who keeps the child well-fed and also would want the little one to practice some exercises with her. THIS ISN’T A GOOD IDEA.
Bonus: Uraku Kunimitsu would be a great older brother figure due to being very encouraging and to being used to act as the reasonable side of Ebina’s brain. However, children makes him remember about Toyotomi Hideyori. We all know how it ends, right? Let’s say that Uraku would guilty himself over anything bad happening to a child saniwa.
(Deleted the original post because the format didn’t work)
That’s very specific… The list is also specific. And Long.
About the saniwa’s gender:
Well, in the canon all characters addresses to the saniwa using words which can be considered gender-neutral (maybe with the exception of “Nushi-sama” used by Kogitsunemaru because, traditionally, this manner of address is used by a woman towards a man she is intimately familiar with.) which is fitting because the saniwa is the player character. So I really don’t know if they care about it or not, but probably not. I follow this line: the saniwa is their new master in a wartime, so this specific aspect doesn’t matter. I think they’ll be more interested in/worried about the saniwa’s competence than anything else.
But if you are talking about preferences, Jiseinotanzaku is the only one which would react a bit differently (showing more confidence while talking, being a little protective towards them) towards a woman as a saniwa because of his last master Nakano Takeko:
During the Battle of Aizu, she fought with a naginata (a Japanese polearm) and was the leader of an ad hoc corps of female combatants who fought in the battle independently, as the senior Aizu retainers did not allow them to fight as an official part of the domain’s army. This unit was later retroactively called the Joshitai (娘子隊 Girls’s Army).
Spoiler: “women will bring shame to Aizu’s army.” She didn’t took it lightly.
The List:
Listed by how many times they were used and how many years stayed under their former masters who were women, basically they are organized by how much a woman had impact on them:
Raikirimaru - Tachibana Ginchiyo, since she was 6 till her death at 34 years old. Used in every battle she fought at.
Jiseinotanzaku - Nakano Takeko, possibly got in her hands when she was 13, remained with her until her death at 21 years old during the Boshin War.
Uraku Kunimitsu - Asai Oeyo/Oeyo Gozen as a mamorigatana for about seven years, then it was given to Tokugawa Tamahime also as a mamorigatana until she gave it to Maeda Toshitsune when they married.
Konotegashiwa Kanenaga - Wedding gift from Hosokawa Tsunatoshi to Tokugawa Inuhime, the daughter of Tokugawa Yorifusa. Possibly used as a defensive weapon due to being her favorite sword and was used until her death.
Ageha Muramasa - Mochizuki Chiyome, used as a mamorigatana during the Fifth battle of Kawanakajima for around one year. Also Oda O-hime/Kantoin as a wedding gift to her husband Tokugawa Hidetada, less than one year.
Himezuru Ichimonji - Given to Nagao Aya/Aya Gozen before it was given to her son Uesugi Kagekatsu for about seven years. The sword was merely used as a decoration due to being too heavy to be lifted by Aya who was already 54 years old when she received the sword.
Okadagiri Yoshifusa - Oda O-hime/Kantoin for less than one year, also as wedding gift to Tokugawa Hidetada.
Kashagiri Hiromitsu - Takeda Kikuhime, Takeda Katsuyori’s sister, she received this sword to give to Uesugi Kagekatsu when they married.
Not swords, but belonged to women:
Kamaitachi - Mochizuki Chiyome since the aftermath of the Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima until her death.
Naomasa Matsudaira - Haruhime/Aoki Gozen/Aoki Kaga no Kami Norimune, Matsudaira Kiyoyasu’s spouse and Matsudaira Hirotada’s mother. Unused due to being too heavy.
