Che! I know this isn't what you asked for, and you are going to get your longer Mitsuhide/Oda fic when I can actually get it done, but for now, here's something. Just a tiny little thing. As in, a legit drabble. Exactly 100 words. (Spot the words I asked you to pick first for no apparent reason!)
“Love and honour form the basis of all strength!” Kanetsugu declares pompously, passing his set of charms from one palm to the other, as the last enemy crumples to the ground.
Mitsunari rolls his eyes. “If only Lord Kenshin could see you, tarnishing his memory like that. What benevolence. Where's your war, your wine?”
"At least I have my nemesis,” Kanetsugu counters without missing a beat. “I knew I could count on you, Mitsunari."
And as Yukimura joins them, for great justice, Mitsunari resolves to keep his comments down. In the silence, a small smile breaks through.
