#and the fact that gintoki was there when he ate the spicy crackers!!!!

[saotome-michi]

Thinking once again about that ginhiji post on twitter that drew this devastating parallel:

In Bushu, Hijikata met a woman. She loved spicy food. One day, in order to become the Shinsengumi, he had to leave Bushu. When they parted ways for good, he ate her favorite food, complained about the taste, and cried.

In Edo, Hijikata met a man. He loved sweets. One day, in order to keep being the Shinsengumi, he had to leave Edo. When they parted ways, he ate his favorite food, complained about the taste, and laughed.
