[Well, he's asking, but he's reaching out to touch at the same time, so. He's gonna get the answer to that question pretty quickly! And Marceline gets to see this memory.]
[ she's building herself up for bursting the bubble and freeing them by talking about stuff. let her live. yams doesn't look embarrassed so it's okay ]
[IT'S TRUE he doesn't often get embarrassed... but now instead of being depressed and melancholy he's nostalgic and melancholy, which, well. It could be worse.]
Oh--that was Tomoe. Tomoegata Naginata--he was our captain for that mission.
But... they were defeated. And Hijikata-san died on a certain day. Our enemies tried to change that, by fighting on his side and trying to keep him alive. [...] But... our duty is to protect history. No matter how painful it is for us, we can't allow our enemies to change it.
[And sometimes that means killing their most precious people with their own hands.]

[TOO BAD IT'S MEMSHARE. Well, she can enjoy some music first--because he does in fact find it!]
Oh, they really do have it!
no subject
[ immediately grabbing it and going to put it on. IT'S TIME TO SHARE HEADPHONES YAMS ]
Haha, whaaat? This kind of really slaps though!
no subject
Eh--what is it slapping?
no subject
[ unfortunately... the song is too good... it means they do not hear the slow advance of a bubble upon them...... ]

--Eh? What?

[ HOW MANY BUBBLES MUST SHE GET STUCK IN ]
no subject
[HELP MARCELINE]
no subject

These things only burst if we hit them with color, but every single time, something super embarrassing happens.

no subject
... Like that.
[ awkwardly pats yams on the head. she does not know how to react to this ]
no subject
He'll accept the headpat, though he mostly looks a little surprised that it's this, of all memories.]
Ehhh... I almost forgot about that.

Oh--that was Tomoe. Tomoegata Naginata--he was our captain for that mission.
no subject
[ maybe if they talk about this when she pops the bubble... it won't give a memory... yes... a perfect plan ]
no subject
He's quiet for a minute.]
...To ensure the defeat of the Shinsengumi and the death of our Vice Commander.
no subject
I thought you were Shinsengumi?
[ ???????? ]
no subject
[Haha....... yeah.]

... Man, I'm sorry. That sucks. Just reliving my own history without having the power to change it is bad enough, I can't imagine having to do both.
[ anyway she feels bad so. pop the bubble it goes. and this memory is here except for the bit that marceline clearly could not see ]

Yasusada will process everything else he saw in a minute, but first he just zeroes in on one very important thing]

no subject
What?

no subject
Ah--sorry, her cough...
no subject
[ in the awkward tone of someone who does not want to talk about personal and traumatic experiences anyway, ]
no subject
Did she die?
