is the shuuga a giant floating tortoise?

I can't say it is, but I'm not saying it isn't.

What’s the hardest one you’ve had? Is it harder if there is no reason?

Hard to say. Every mononoke is a unique challenge.

But to say it's harder with no Reason, well.

With no Reason, it may well be impossible.

[kon-kusuriuri]

what do you feel about asa and kame? Do you think their fate will intertwined with each other regardless of time and space?

Hmm. I'm not sure what fate may be in store for their futures. In truth, I feel like they have much to endure apart before they'll be ready to find each other again

Still...

If they find each other worth the suffering, they will find their way.

If you did not return to Shuuga in the month between the Karakasa case and the Hinezumi case, what were you doing? Why couldn't Saburomaru find you?

There are many mononoke beyond the walls of the palace, and endless more beyond the walls of the city.

But while another encounter would be far from ideal, I have no reason to refuse the passing of messages. What did he want with me?

[kon-kusuriuri]

What do you truly fear?

My deepest fear... is to lose my purpose in this world, and therefore to lose my connection to it.

... I shouldn't have said that out loud.

Can I hold a tenbin please? I think they're adorable and they do a very good job at pointing towards the mononoke. Also do you actually use them as scales when selling your wares or do you keep a regular one for that?

They don't measure weight; I measure that myself.

But they're quite friendly. If you hold out your hand and hold still-

Ah, in fact, if you could please take care of them for me while I go over there...
