"As much as I like that proposition, still too risky," she hushed, smirking, "-I think discretion continues to be in our best interest for the foreseeable future, I'm afraid."

"Oh? Where do you recommend then?" Yoshi offers her a lustful gaze. "And when?"

Despite knowing better, she just couldn't help herself, and lightly bit her lower lip before answering, "Why don't we make plans to make plans tonight at the inn, say my room?"

"Excellent." Yoshi picks out a ribbon from a stall and hold it up to Narumi's braid. "I look forward to scheming with you"

He nods at that. "Well, I hope to get the chance to visit Otosan Uchi the next time my father goes. I have family I have not seen there, so perhaps I may get the chance. Or maybe duty or new family may take me there more permanently as well. If so, I'll have to ask you to show me around.". He smiled pleasantly.
"Oh, I dont know about asking me to show you around. I rarely spent that much time out in the city. Was too hot for my enjoyment. The lib- uhh.. the common rooms were where I spent most of my time. Was nice and cool there. Though, I do hope you get to see it sometime. It isn't a terrible place. Just a little loud at times."

"The pleasure is all mine," she eyes the ribbon with a smile, and raises an eyebrow again, before moving on to another stall.

He raised an eyebrow at that... "So not the library? Why not? Libraries are great? And I am used to loud honestly. The largest Akodo dojo in lion lands is there. So it's always noisy since there's always an actual army worth of students in training."

That sounds just terrible. Way too many people around there, but I suppose I get a bit pampered with that considering that my classes had, at most, twenty students and it was usually silent because everybody was reading." They chuckled some. "Libraries are okay. I wouldn't say they're super cool or anything though. Though, what about you? What exactly were you trained in?"

"Specifically? I am an Omoidasu. So courtly arts were the primary focus of my training. But I was also tutored by my father in bureaucracy so that is what my duty is. And besides that, deep studies in spirits and warfare. Since I can observe spirits, that one seemed relatively important," he says with a shrug. "I'm kind of all over the place really."

"So... you're a shugenja then?" That was the best they had understood from all of that. "But you're also a courtier with some dabbling in being a bushi?" Warfare wasn't... that great for shugenja to do, Unsei felt, but there were still several who were more martially inclined. Just had to be careful around all that blood.
