"It's all bullshit," she replied through her teeth, and glanced at the Phoenix who appeared beside her.
"What do you think of tanuki, Raizo-kun?"

"I think they're a very good embodiment of a species of annoying- perhaps mischievous- good cheer."

A pause.

"And eminently punchable, in abstract."

All innocence.

Carries his katana in an old, drab, battered saya. As of Day 13, wears a delicately carved bracelet of wooden beads polished smooth, laced through with red, yellow, and orange string and a small Phoenix token.
Standard gear: Ceremonial Clothes and a daisho. When in his element, ashigaru armor, a naginata, and a more relaxed form of terror are added into the mix.

She backhands him in the shoulder.
Hard.
Entirely by accident, of course.

"It was the shit-eating grin that gave it away. Did you pose for the netsuke? The likeness is striking."
The humour to her words, her expression, it doesn't reach her eyes which remain dark and thoughtful.

"Oh, you know, I just have one of those faces..."

He paused.

"So. Apart from my obviously brilliant and well-chosen gift, the evening seems to be... disagreeing with you. Should I hurl myself into a pond, or is there someone you need leaned on?"

"How much time do you have, and is there sake involved?" It's hard to tell if she's joking.
"I didn't like-" she motions to the stage, "-whatever that was. It made me uncomfortable because the protagonist had everything under control. Even when he lost his wife, he never lost sight of his honour. His unwaivering, disgusting, too-good honour."

"Well. It is a Lion play."

A pause.

She didn't like that either, and fumed quietly. "Maybe it's just my low-class river rat self then that's allowed such to get under my skin..."

"I call it being human. About that sake, I'm not carrying any, but could always go get some?"
