"While it is true I had some inspiration, I would like to thank the judge", the Scorpiom admitted. "He seemed to like my work more than I did."

A sight chuckle there, remembering the bullshit he fed the man.

"Though you say your piece had similarity? I think I should be flattered but perhaps Seppun-sama can explain more?"

Yuzu opens a weird smile as Hiikimasu chuckles. Well, it kind of reminds a smile, so I guess one should count as one. "Much easier to convince than Shika Pei-Pei-sama, I assume. Even I managed to do that."

As the bowls come, the young Seppun claps his hands and provides a short, "Itadakimasu!" Then, he slurps some extra spicy noodles. The one-eye tear drop is inevitable. With a deep breath, he says, "Gomen. It is too hot and spicy."

Another breath, and the boy regains more control, "So, I collected flowers that reminded me of moments I shared here. I thought Shosuro-san made the same. Pardon if my assumption is misplaced."

He also said a small prayer of thanks for the food, then took his chopsticks from his sleeve, wiped them properly and a well slurped some noodles. He seemed to be accustomed to the flavor and spice, the small serving of chicken in the bowl wasn't too tender, nor dry either. He nodded appreciation to the cook but gave no words.

"You'd be right< I'd say", he confirmed the Seppun's assessment with a slight smirk. "There's been a great deal to happen, and picking moments in my mind to share using flowers was a bit taxing mentally. I may not have showed it, but I was a little nervous I have overdone it."

"Is that so?" Yusu says, picking the egg and munching on it whole. "Shosuro-san managed to keep up with confidence and serenity, to mu perspective. A real example."

He slurped more noodles, getting the shredded mushrooms in the bite. "Oh, if I'm not tense, I'm not trying hard enough", he admitted. "Worry is proof of effort, that's my experience anyway." He picked up his tea cup again with his other hand. "Has Seppun-sama had many easy times until now? Learning something from the struggle is as important as the accomplishment."

"Easy? No. Far from it." He takes the bowl and slurps some broth. Oh boy, the spice. Another tear forms, and he cleans it with his forearm, after resting the bowl back into the counter. "I've told this to Shika Pei-Pei-sama. These tests are just... odd. I do trust they will guide us to a bright future, but really... I've never performed so poorly in my life. Such strife, and no good results."

Then, he takes a sip of the tea and chuckles, "But diligence in training, clarity of purpose and faith in honor showed me the true way. Ominous, but... since the eclipse, well, it feels like the Heavens passed graces to my soul."

Yuzu provides a nod and a clap in thanks. It is meant for his ancestral father and creator.

"I'm trusting them, yes", he said thoughtfully. "I think the tests aren't only to showcase our talents, but an opportunity to display how we act outside our usual circumstances, which is symbolic of the changes to one's life marriage can bring. Have you considered this?"

He finished his noodles and chicken, but left the broth for a moment, letting it settle.

"I have not considered. Will do now. It is a very wise analogy." He says, going back into fetching the shrimps.

"It is something to think about, though about another matter", he began anew. "I have been working to bring attention to an event that may be of interest. How does Seppun-sama feel about new things, as we speak of the idea of these trials and new beginnings, I believe a new sort of performance might be worthwhile."

The boy tilts his head at that, and takes another shrimp to chew on while he thinks. After its gone, he mentions, "I uphold tradition. So, if this new respects the norms, well, it hope it to be good."
