Good old times

Another Peacemaker piece.
The charas outlines were made by pen, all the rest is Photoshop work. Again, choosing colors was the most difficult part... will I ever learn? *sighs*

I imagined this scene happening some time after the events told in book 5 of the manga (tankobon version): after a disastrous begining, young Hijikata and little Souji are just starting to get along fine with each other.
Sorry for my terrible handwriting... the translation of the dialogue follows here:

Souji: Hijikata-san, kono ame zeeeembu boku ni? (Are all these candies just for me?)

Hijikata: Dareka ni ittara korosuzo, Jijigaki! (If you tell anyone I'll kill you, brat!)

"Jiji" means "old man" in a pejorative way and "gaki" means brat. I didn't find a good translation for this word so I left it as just "brat".
