Hikimasu went to the market, thinking about his meeting with Emiko the night before. He should try somewhat to play up his strengths if he could. Finding a proper instrument would be necessary in that case.
He decided the shakuhachi would be his go-to. Easy to carry around and could make a pleasant sound. Maybe he'd even get good with some practice.
He searched the market, not immediately stopping at any one dealer.

[Day 1, MA] In the Market
Edogawa quietly walked through the market, taking it all in. He stopped to look at various inks and paper. He dwelled longer on a few games and puzzles. As he moved from stall to stall, a wooden disc would occasionally drop from his hand, nearly reaching the ground before spinning back up on a string.

"Yeah, have that sent up to my quarters, please," Nesshin says before noting the Dragon next to him, and the servant scurries off, incense in hand.
Turning, Nesshin bows and says "A pleasant day, is it not? Shika Nesshin."

"Mostly, I was just seeing what was available." he shook his head. "I like to have a sense of the way things are. It makes it easier to notice when that changes."

Nesshin nods.
"You've the truth of it," he says. After a moment, he adds, "You know, I met another Kitsuki yesterday, one Hajime. Is he known to you?"

"I met with him and others of the Dragon this morning." he nodded. "I must confess, I have not met many Shika before coming here."

"Not as carry the name anymore, perhaps," Nesshin replies. "We do marry out a lot, as it happens. Relatively, anyway; more marry within the Clan, as might be expected.
"Is Kitsuki-san interested in a Shika spouse, perhaps?" Nesshin grins and raises an eyebrow.
