[ she loved the swords who just thought the best of her and did whatever she asked.... ]
This is why you are trying to imitate, but I don't think imitation will get you where you want to go. Come walk with me, but don't walk like me.
[ roxana really is thinking, where did it all go wrong with you.... kabukimono she would have done anything to protect you.... she'd let scaramouche flounder for a cornchip. ]
[Swords.........are fools. But also morally grey enough to be okay with shady people regardless, at least.
NOT THE CORNCHIP she's so right for it. Oh to play Kabukimono and just be a freaky lil blank slate alien instead of Scaramouche who is a lil shit always. He looks at the butterflies, but eventually and slowly moves to stand, like he's doing his best not to scare them away. Most flutter off, but a few do still linger as he steps his way from the flowers and over to her side.]
[Hm... He will follow along after her, doing his best to keep steady. Fortunately this is not too hard for him considering he's a fake-bodied freak who can keep still in a way that humans just can't.]
It is a difficult thing, to walk without thinking about it.
[ she can tell he's a freak, but at least he's more like a sponge than anything else right now. ]
When you can walk without thinking about it, that's when you'll cause less discomfort. Those are things people consider natural.... and if you behave in a way they think is natural, they won't think anything is strange.
If people were kinder, they'd accept strangeness.
[ but she won't get into her terrible view of people in front of someone who's a blank slate. ]
She is too kind and considerate to him as he pads along, trying to figure out what a natural gait might look or feel like. Considering his own natural gait is definitely that of a freaky immortal creature, too smooth to really look human.]
The people of Tatarasuna are kind. They have allowed me into their home.

In what way am I meant to walk?

[ even if it becomes something irritating. ]
If you walk smoothly, the butterflies will stay longer.
[ she is going to choose to walk down the hill of the butterfly garden trail instead of going up... easier to keep steady for the butterflies. ]

Smoothly?
