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

[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!

[Let it be known that An'yu appears to be in his element whenever there is booze involved. Smiling as he's taking one of the largest bottles available to them and placing it between him and his student.]

Shall we?

[Truth be told, Tohru only agreed to this because he's out to observe the rest of the War Hounds at close quarters. It's an ideal situation for him, because booze has been liberally applied to everyone. In vino veritas, and all that.

Oh, and yeah, perhaps getting to talk to his student is a good idea too.]

So. [Saying this in a low voice, as he studies the rest of them from over the rim of his cup.] Your assessment of the other members of your blade thus far?

[He's only here because Kasumi asked him to. Paolo Inojosa wasn't available, and he HAD been Kaz's mentor before, so...

Nevertheless, he's sitting away from the group. That does appear to be his modus operandi.]

[Interestingly enough, these guys came fresh from a meeting with some Rhiannon operatives in Japan. Gabriel had wanted them to check on something for him. That would explain the suits.

Maybe they look a little more distinguished.]

Yulia-chan~ let's drink!

[...But they certainly don't sound any better than they usually do.]

[Tala Vega is, undoutbedly, the most beautiful person in the room right now.

...Okay well, Brianna is too. Kimonos, yay~]

The next time you come to Japan, we need to go to Gion. And we have to go decked out like this.

[Kasumi had called her in for Joshua LaRue because Gabriel Marlowe could not make it. She did not question how Kasumi had known that she would not have minded, and was actually quite interested in joining the group: the Mother of the Wolf had her ways.

Pouring sake for herself now, before handing the bottle to Josh.]

Here we are again.
