"I think it might be best if we waited to see if he and your cousin try to use these arrows lying about to resume their discussion..."
The Kitsu nodded.
"Poor Asahina-san though - he looks like Murato-san was last night, and he was in a terrible place. But how did he shoot?"
Was he forgetting something?

"Poor Asahina-san though - he looks like Murato-san was last night, and he was in a terrible place. But how did he shoot?"
Was he forgetting something?
Without actual dice rolls to look at, Raizo's player made an educated guess.
"About as well as you'd expect from someone convinced he can't fight his way out of a waterlogged paper lantern. So."
He chuckled.
"We're in good company."

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. Remember to Breathe
Murato moved to a place where he can watch the others. He was surprised... He had not thought the targets had been placed too difficultly. Though he was a bit ticked about that last one. Not enough to show it, but enough to feel it. So he took the time to re-center himself. It was relaxing to simply focus, but he could not stop some thought from bubbling to the surface... So he ended up plotting out his next kumihimo mentally.

Koi left the archery area with a face of absolute thunder. She was wearing a borrowed kimono, still and she had to continue to take the onslaught of rumours from this damn miai plus these ridiculous challenges to find if she can be wed to someone. Sure, yep, my archery is going to catch me a fine suitor.
She approached the Kitsu, her jade eyes flashing with annoyance. "Good morning, Kitsu-sama." She said, lowly near gritted teeth.

She is wearing a katana that largely is peace tied, and at night has a very fine lantern. She is being followed at all times by a Shika Guard at a distances. She wears a fine wooden carved bracelet with the Moth Clan symbol on it.

Tanabe had performed well enough, maybe he didn't excel like he would have wished but he had done ok. He had been mildly frustrated when he finished but the walk from the shooting area to the observation area was enough to clear his bad mood.
He observed the others as they shot and nodded to those he recognized giving them warm smiles as he usually did.
Mitsuki returned to the bleachers wondering when the actual archery event would start. She had to recover her fight clothes from her room before it after all. Court clothes were good enough for that little indoor preliminary show, but they would need something more appropriate for when they'll eventually go outside for the "ride fast and shoot even faster" main event.
Because that was definitely only the introduction right?

"I suspect not, Kaikoga-san," he says. "But I wish you one anyway. Is there any specific reason that you seem displeased to see me?"
Koi nodded, her eyes flashing with an annoyance but Kitsu might notice a wink as if to say play along.
"I am mildly annoyed at the rumours I have been hearing about us having some sort of intimate relationship which is not the case at all!" She said using perhaps a stage whisper.

"We're in good company."
"Good company until we get drinking, it seems."
He jokes, before remembering something with a slam of his fist into his palm, and then a bow.
"While I remember, Shiba-san, please allow me to apologize for my sudden departure a couple of days ago, at around this time. My Gempuku was... not a pretty experience, so thinking about it left me brought back some part of me I thought I had buried and needed to rebury."
