"I wouldn't dream of missing it," she tried her best to keep calm and carry on, and was failing miserably.
"I uh, noticed your necklace? When you were headed in... Kuni-san said it was a gift from your ...mother..."
Oh no.
Oh no.
She admitted she'd been talking about him with Yasu. If only she could melt into the floor and disappear forever.
Her embarrassment grew.

While such fears are understandable with one such as Bo they were also unfounded as he was oblivious to the implications. Instead he simply smiles and holds out the peony pendant a little from his chest, "Yeah! She loves makin' stuff and made this one special for me. It's her favorite flower."

Without missing a beat, she steps forward- drawing closer to him.
To see the necklace better.
Obviously.

Finishing her hopefully intriguing performance, Inoshishi rejoins the group, hoping to find someone that wants to talk about the story they used as inspiration for their poetry!

She does seem flushed and slightly embarrassed, maybe she’s a bit too wound up? Couldn’t be! Time to talk about stories!

"I've got to be honest I can't tell good from bad when it comes to art. But it's my ma so I'd love it either way." If Narumi has knowledge of theology she could likely make out the, desperate, prayers to Benten inscribed upon it. With a knowledge of flowers she might draw a connection between Bo and the peony (Botan).

"Let us say that there have been some... gaps in my education..."
Moshumaru laughed a little.

"You and me both, Shiba-san. You and me bo-"

The screaming. The fire. A block of wood. Smoke. Blackness.

He clutched the gap where his fingers were, them feeling like they were on fire, before recomposing himself.

He took a bow.

"Forgive me, I must take leave - I just remembered something I shouldn't. I look forward to our next conversation, Shiba-san."

He left shortly thereafter, as soon as etiquette would allow.

While on his way out, he spotted the Agasha. She seemed... flustered so he took a moment to check if she was alright, hiding his own woes for another time.

"Is everything alright, Agasha-san?"

While everyone conversed, the Kaito wrote a note to the Seppun. She didn't delivered herself asking a servant to deliver the note.

After sending the note to the young lord. The girl just walked the hallway looking at the tapestries. She probably awaited the answer to her note.

"Thank you for this, Shika-sama, and this one is Utaku Kheree" she says a bit to loud for property looking if anyone would raise a issue there and with her presence and foreign name.
Nesshin smiles.

"I but call 'em as I hear 'em," he says, "and you did a fair sight better than I did." He shakes his head slightly.

"How've you enjoyed things so far?"
"The Mia is not quite what I had assumed it would be." she says as she looks around, her head askew like a birds. " But so far I have found a certain amount of joy in it also, so most things are well there, and what about you?"

The boy gets the note and provides a nod to the servant, but doesn't open it yet since he had just approached the Crane and would be rude to read something as she replies.

She didn't have knowledge of theology... but Yasu had told her about the inscriptions.
"The blessings and support of one's parents, especially one's mother, have a way of being the sweetest balm during a storm, don't they?" she didn't really expect him to answer- and she couldn't answer either, having no parents so she really didn't know.
He's gifted an embarrassed smile when she realizes how close she'd wandered forward to him.
In public.
To look at the necklace.
Obviously.
Quickly she takes a step back but not a large one. Just a socially acceptable one.
"Uh. What was your poem about?" Detour!
