Waking the Dead 2.0 || May 19, 2063 (Saturday) || Friendship in the cups.

[kawaakari]

[It's a little after lunch with the Shinta Clan that Kasumi Aoi makes an interesting suggestion: that the War Hounds wile the afternoon hours away in good company with their mentors, former or otherwise, that can make it. Invitations are easy; she can handle them.

So, there you have it: doing things the Japanese way, talking over sake, nibbling idly on onigiri and whatever else. The rest of the household has left you alone. This is quality time with the people who have watched your back, and taught you whatever they could.]



OOC Notes
+ Each thread here is for one-on-one conversations between players and their respective mentors. Group shenanigans can be played out on the table, if you guys like.
+ Noey and I are going to bring his conversation with Malia on the table!

Haha, oks lang.:)) I just wanted Brig to say this next thing

[atlas_shrugged]

[ Brigade laughs, having expected his "One of the Meddlers" Sensei to ask further. He elaborates anyway. ]

I've found a little spot, here in Seigi, Sensei, where I spend my nights watching the stars. [ He smiles inside. Thinks of Kasumi. ] They're not quite as bright back home as they are here. And there's a really nice breeze that makes its way there.

I'd just like to go back to that spot whenever I can, and if given permission by Magistrate Shinta. [ The nights have been pleasant. The stars are always nice and the breeze is always soothing ] I haven't really felt comfortable to just sit somewhere in a long time. [ He thinks of the sake. ] I'm surprised I found somewhere that makes me feel like I don't have to be running and fighting all the time.

[ferricwill]

Ah.

[Nodding along, since now he kind of gets it. (No, he really doesn't.)]

Perhaps I should show you more of my own spots back in the Philippines then. Maybe they can compare.

[atlas_shrugged]

[ Brig smiles at that. He thinks of the cliff edge where they drink. It'd be good to clear his head. Take his Senseis advice and make time to just sit and talk for a change. He doubts though that he'll find a spot right now that compares with that spot at Kasumi's patio ] I would like that, sir. Maybe there are others. [ It's said with a sigh ]

[ferricwill]

There are many.

[He's noticing something, but he can't quite put a finger on it just yet.

This is why his wife calls him an idiot sometimes.

...Okay, no.

Many times.]

I am sure that there will be other opportunities to come back here, Brig.

[atlas_shrugged]

[ Brig smiles ] I don't doubt that, sir. It's just that part of me hopes I don't get to come back here purely for work or mission purposes only. [ The options seeming to slowly slip away, Brigade's eyes glance toward Kasumi's direction, but never settle on her, keeping her only in his peripheral for a moment, before going back to his Sensei ]

I will miss this place and the people I've come to meet. [ His mind, as usual, is still racing for solutions for the problem at hand. He's just trained that way. There's always the train, I guess. ]

[ferricwill]

You speak as though you will never come back here.

[Gently.]

With the way that you stay close to the Blade King, I doubt that it will be so hard for you to come around.

[atlas_shrugged]

[ Brig smiles a half-smile. ] I guess I surprisingly got attached, sir.

[ Brig raises his cup for a toast ] To Seigi and moonlit nights. I'll find a way to come back here, hopefully without a need to bother you, Hikaru or anybody else as this more a personal want than anything related to duty. [ He smiles genuinely and laughs a bit. ]

[ferricwill]

[Lifting his own cup in response.]

To us, as well. To old friends, and second chances.
