"Quite a bit. Chasing bandits. Being one of the idiots who stands around while Dragon and Phoenix local commanders check their maps about where the border's meant to be. It's probably why I'm so very charming."

Still, he seemed to be warming to the subject.

"You honestly underestimate your charm. Honesty is worth more to many than flowery words. I think that's probably why Aimi-san has taken to you. The few times we spoke it became obvious that she liked a straightforward answer," he says with a smile. "I'm glad that the two of you found each other."

"It just remains to be seen if the Deer agree with you, me, her, and everyone else I've talked to on the subject..."

"If everyone says it's right... you still have to ask the question. I get it. I feel probably a bit more anxious, since Bai is being shown interest so strongly by others," he says with a smile. "I imagine that you've spoken words of support for Soyokaze-san and have certain hopes for them."

"Well, Soyokaze-san has been a good friend to me- and knowing what I do of both his skills and his situation, I think he'd make a fine Phoenix. But naturally, the choice is the Deer's."

He nods at that. "Well... if it can't be me, if it is him she will be happy," he says with a nod. "But I do have hopes of my own. Though if it is him, hopefully he'll have finally learned to actually talk to her and stop talking to others first. That has been truly infuriating."

Raizo... grinned.

"How do you think I feel about it?"

"Probably aggravated and annoyed. But I can't help but think I caught the worst of the duel debacle. I really wish he had not told me about it," he said shaking his head. "The time apart from her, when she was angry with me, was torment. I made the wrong decision and apparently had too much expectation in him. A mistake I will never make again with Bai."

"I was a bit surprised he asked me to stand as witness and not her."

I also wish he hadn't backed down.

"But, well... we're all young yet. Still time to learn."

"That's what's Taiko-san tells me," he says with a nod. "He's usually not wrong. Got a few years on me."

"You know Neko, Tori, Ryuu... I don't know if Sasori may also join in the Jotei's no kami's journey." The Kaito chucked taking a piece of the cake.

He shook his head at that. "My life does not reflect the morning dew", he said. "That is for Bayushi with too much time for poetry."

Bai giggled. "I think that is one of the blessings that may be granted to Seppun san if he keeps the attitude." She shook her head. "I wonder if they brought the fortune to themselves."
