I'm going through withdrawals [PSL]
Aug. 31st, 2010 05:21 pm[ The life Izō has is an easy one. Everything is taken care of for him. No need to work, no need to worry about paying for the things he needs and wants. It wasn't always this easy, though. He'd been starving on the streets not that long ago, none of the families wanting to hire him for his unique talent. A hired gun with no job and no one that trusts him to do it is little more than a dangerous stray.
Nishitani offering this arrangement was a godsend. It wasn't done out of the goodness of his heart, of course -- no one, not even Izō, is foolish enough to think someone like him would do anything altruistic. It's fine. It's not like Izō has any self-respect. Being kept for Nishitani's amusement is just fine. It's a damn sight better than starving and scraping by.
This life does lend itself to boredom, though. He finds himself looking towards the door every few minutes like a dog awaiting their master. Nishitani should be home soon...Who knows what kind of mood he'll be in or what he'll ask Izō to do. ]
