The corridors of the Hunting Dogs Headquarters echoed with the usual sharp footsteps and clipped orders, soldiers moving with machine-like precision. But Tetchō wasn’t watching any of them.

He was watching you.

You limped through the doors, uniform torn, sleeve stained with dried blood from the mission you’d barely finished. As a newer Hunting Dog recruit, you weren’t used to being thrown into ambushes yet. Tetchō had gone ahead with Jōno, but the moment he returned and didn’t see you—

He searched the entire building until you finally walked in.

“Tetchō,” you sighed, forcing a smile. “I’m okay. Just a scratch—”

He was in front of you in three long strides, eyes sharp as steel.

“That is not a scratch.” His voice was calm—too calm. The kind he used right before acting on instinct. “Sit.”

“Tetchō, I can walk—”

“Sit.”

You opened your mouth to argue, but he was already kneeling, inspecting your arm with surprisingly gentle fingers. His touch was so delicate it startled you—Tetchō Suehiro, a man who could cut through steel, was treating you like you’d shatter if he so much as breathed wrong.

He pressed closer, brow furrowed with concentration.

“It is exactly as I feared,” he murmured.

You tensed. “What? Is it infected?”

“No.”

“Then what is it—?”

“You were hurt while I wasn’t beside you.”

You blinked. “Tetchō, that’s not—”

“This is unacceptable.”

His intensity made your breath hitch. Anyone else would’ve looked ridiculous saying something like that.

But Tetchō said it like a vow. Like he took your safety personally. Like he always had.

You placed a hand over his, feeling the tension in his grip.

“You can’t protect me 24/7,” you whispered.

“No.” He finally looked up at you, eyes softening just slightly. “But I want to.”

Your heart stuttered.

He reached for a medical kit, his movements stiff and oddly flustered. He cleaned your wound carefully, his long lashes lowered, face so close you could feel the heat radiating off him.

“You’re being gentle today,” you joked lightly.

He paused, eyes lifting to yours with disarming sincerity.

“You are someone I do not want to see in pain.”

Your breath caught.

Tetchō finished the bandage, but kept holding your arm, thumb brushing the back of your hand as if grounding himself.

“Next time,” he said quietly, “stand behind me.”

“Tetchō—”

“I will protect you.” His voice dropped, softer and warmer than you’d ever heard it. “If you allow me.”

You swallowed, a slow smile tugging your lips.

“Okay. I’ll allow it.”

His ears turned faintly red, and he quickly stood up, trying to appear composed.

“Good. Then it is decided.”

You laughed. “You’re cute when you get serious like that.”

He froze.

“…I am not cute.”

But the tips of his ears stayed flushed.

And when you walked past him, Tetchō fell into step beside you, close enough that your shoulders brushed—his silent promise clear:

He wasn’t letting you walk anywhere alone again.

(as worn by samurai of the Edo period - great charts by Nadeshico Rin). You can find more about samurai ranks and their regulated attires under the tag "samurai kimono".

The Kariginu

狩衣 Kariginu first appeared during Heian period where they were informal attires worn by kuge (nobibilty) men for activities such as hunting and 蹴鞠 kemari ball games.

Kariginu rose to formal status during Kamakura period when it started being worn by the buke (warrior class). In Edo period, it was worn by upper-ranked samurai (4th rank and above).

Edo-period kariginu designates a patterned clothing (different from the hoi, see below), often decorated with the family 紋 mon (crest). Colors were not regulated.

風折烏帽子 Kazaori-eboshi - black-lacquered hat made of silk, cloth or paper, originally worn by Heian nobility. Many eboshi shapes exist, this one is a upright style (tate-eboshi 立烏帽子) with top folded to the left.

末広 Suehiro - a type of formal folding fan. TN: the fan drawn here ressemble more a 中啓 chûkei, as suehiro have curving ribs which don't seems to be the case here (find more about fan types here)

指貫 sashinuki (or 奴袴 nubakama) - large bouffant pants. Also, note the bare feet! Rin doesn't comment this but this was probably a way to put it below sokutai and ikan (which do have socks)

袖括 Sodekukuri - decorative sleeve ties. Originally appeared on Heian clothings (like kariginu, nôshi, etc) where they were used to tighten sleeve cuffs.

The Hoi

布衣 Hoi is a variation of 狩衣 kariginu (see above).

During Edo period, it was worn by some hatamoto (6th rank samurai) via explicit permission of the shogunate - setting those rewarded by this honor apart from other vassals of the same rank.

Compared to kariginu, hoi were plain solid color.

It is worn here over a 熨斗目 noshime, a samurai kosode (=ancestor of the kimono) with stripes or lattice pattern at waist area.

As for the kariginu, note the bare feet!

The Nôshi

直衣 Nôshi was a type of everyday robes which were first worn by males of the imperial family during Heian era. Formality placed it then above kariginu.

Overtime, their use spread among nobility, and by Edo period, they were a "tad-formal" attire worn by Shogun's family for worship celebrations.

立烏帽子 Tate-eboshi - upright lacquered hat

袍 Hô - round-necked robe with large boxy sleeves

檜扇 hiôgi - formal folding fan made of cypress, also of Heian history. Those were unpatterned as painted ones were for women
