The bow is resturned, as expected, but Narumi's eyes narrow slightly at the torrent of exclamations. "I- Uh-" she tries to start answering before Ino's done, and then realizes, and waits for a noticeable pause.
There it is.
"Thank you? I was blessed by Inari, um, and you were?" Narumi's aware she looks like shit this morning, so what was the Dragon getting at?

She nodded. "It is part of my duties as temple keeper, I do enjoy such tasks."
"They never take notice of my reading material before assigning such duties. If they did they'd realize it isn't actually much of a punishment. I mostly like reading accounts of the empires many temples," he admits, smiling.

"I think the monks of the temple of Musubi are impress with so many samuraii taking the tasks to gain Ebisu's blessing." She giggled. "Even... a pair of chrysanthemums have done such tasks."

"Well, it's best to keep the fortune of marriage pleased during a miai. I would be willing to bet that has contributed to cleanliness of the temple," he says with a chuckle.

"Is it pleased?" She giggled. "I guess it is."

"I get the feeling that Musubi-no-kami is pleased," he replied. "Each time I see you it feels like such a blessing."

With the bowing and polite chit chat complete, Inoshishi steps in slightly closer. In fact, the silly Dragon is likely going to keep advancing as she talks, unaware that she’s encroaching.
“Wow, your Ikebana is so cute! I love it! So after I finished, which was before you, but no one is timing, so that’t mean anything, it’s just a fact, a story setter, and it needs to be said! Maybe it doesn’t? But I did! So I finished and I wandered around and I saw that big mountain of a man. And I said to myself, ‘Ino, you’ve had a lot of luck with big mountains of men’, even though mama said they were scary and Sakura, who was right, said that big men have big…anyway! So I was sad cause I’d been thinking and I could be an Ikoma, and Ishi is already a Matsu, so that takes care of that, but I didn’t know what you’d do! Cause I don’t think the Lion even have a navy! And then that bug Asahina? Bo-San? He said that all the Lion did was put boards on ships and fight like it was land. Or maybe I said that? But Bo-said maybe you could build the Lion a navy, I think. So I realized that yeah, that would work! So you can be an Akodo and make a navy, I’ll be an Ikoma and sing songs and stuff and Ishi will be…Ishi. Isn’t that the best news ever?”
The things she does to grammar would be maho, if sentences could bleed.

"I should give you some theology lessons. Perhaps a different fortune has blessed you." She nodded

"I know the difference," he said with a smirk. "But the miai is her domain and she brought us together for it."

She was not prepared for this, hungover as she was.
The wash of Ino's words being spilling over her, and Narumi begins to rub her temple absently, wincing...
Mountains of men? She pauses, and tilts her head trying to weed out what Ino's saying now. "I don't- I'm not-" she stutters, eyes flicking quickly to Bo and back.
Stop. Saying. His name. "What?" she's lost track of what Ino's saying. Make a.. "A navy? Inoshishi-san... I'm just a nakodo."
