(D11, MM) I said it with flowers (Event Observation)

[Suzume Senseki]

After the time preparing and presenting his arrangement, Senseki stays around, both to take some time to have a better look at others' work... but also for another reason. He seems calm and smiling as always... but those who spent more time around him would by now know the smile he's showing is not his more usual one.

As soon as Shika Zang has some time more or less free, he'll bow to the Sensei respectfully and ask for a minute of his attention.

[Kaito Oubaihime]

Bai sit down someplace.


//PM or quote if approached

[Kitsu Murato]

Yuzu is there, listening as any Miharu does, without anyone actually noticing they are. Meanwhile, he checks the other competitor's ikebana arrangements.

--
PM if you approach.

Murato approaches the Seppun and faces him. His expression was neutral. "You were looking for me I believe.
Though you maybe did not know it. I think Soyokaze-san chose not to mention my name."

[Seppun Yuzu]

Murato approaches the Seppun and faces him. His expression was neutral. "You were looking for me I believe.
Though you maybe did not know it. I think Soyokaze-san chose not to mention my name."

Yuzu turns his eyes to Murato, and they carry extreme disappointment with them. “The Lion.”

A deep breath and he mentions, “I thought we had already talked about miai issues and certain behaviors best avoided.”

[Kitsu Murato]

"Courting at a miai is a duty. I don't intend to shirk mine. And there is a distinct lack of talk or rumor about dishonorable behavior from me that wasn't caused by spirits of Sakkaku, clearly there has been none," he states, very matter of fact.

[Agasha Inoshishi]

“Oh... uh... yeah no I won't be. Asahina-sama made it pretty clear I was ta marry out. But don't worry I'm sure you'll end up fine whichever way. Mushrooms are hardy things after all."

He offers what attempts to be a comforting smile.

Inoshishi tilts her head slightly, smiling.

“Oh good, another one who knows they will be changing colors. How will you handle that, Asahina-San? If you join the Scorpion, will you begin learning curses and wards?”

[Seppun Yuzu]

"Courting at a miai is a duty. I don't intend to shirk mine. And there is a distinct lack of talk or rumor about dishonorable behavior from me that wasn't caused by spirits of Sakkaku, clearly there has been none," he states, very matter of fact.

"Courting elegantly. Not overtly. The latter is shameful, and disrespectful to all other participants at this miai. We talked about this." He mentions, in a lower tone of voice. "I wouldn't, really, expect that from you."

[Asahina Bo]

Inoshishi tilts her head slightly, smiling.

“Oh good, another one who knows they will be changing colors. How will you handle that, Asahina-San? If you join the Scorpion, will you begin learning curses and wards?”

He looks puzzled for a moment before he realizes, "Oh, um, I'm not a shugenja. Never had the knack. Guessin' if that was the case they'd just stick me guardin' something' unimportant."

[Agasha Inoshishi]

Guessin' if that was the case they'd just stick me guardin' something' unimportant."

“I apologize, I hadn’t realized you were like me! I am not a shugenja either, though my family is full of them. I was trained by the Togashi. If you married into the Unicorn, would they not try to train you in Ide technique? Or would they let you maintain whomever’s technique you know? And if so, how would they employ you appropriately?”

[Asahina Bo]

If you married into the Unicorn, would they not try to train you in Ide technique? Or would they let you maintain whomever’s technique you know? And if so, how would they employ you appropriately?”

"No apologies needed. Most of my family are priests. As for the Ide... well I guess I got some in common with them but I ain't much of one for courtly stuff. I didn't last too long with Doji-sensei before I got sent off ta the Daidoji. So I guess they'd put me with the Shinjo or Moto if I didn't keep trainin' with Daidoji-sensei."
