Koi hooted a playful bellow like she was an embodiment of Matsu herself. "MINE~! Heyah!" She called out and regaining her balance after being blocked by the Shiba and charged forward with the fury fire.

She was about as intimating as a small hedgehog but in fierceness her beauty shined, and at least she could manage a Fire stance moderately, maybe?

Koi had moved into a downward strike aiming for the shoulder of Shiba as Aimi regained composure. "Since I missed my chance with you last time we spoke! You know that time with all the sake and that pillowbook." She cried out again.

Update: Day 13. Koi is wearing a kimono in much higher quality, lilac in hues with green lunar moths and silver lanterns. She is wearing a jade green choker. 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.

Raizo had a choice.

He could keep hold of Aimi and drag her into the path of Koi's strike. In a real fight, it's probably what he would have done, all things being equal.

He could let her go and focus on defense, which a good sensei might do to let his students get some more reps in.

Or he could keep hold of her, drop his practice dao and use his newly free hand to try and catch Koi's wrist on the downstroke.

Which just seemed like more fun under the circumstances.

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.

A flurry of motion, a counter too fast for her to quite track... and suddenly they're in the strangest position, with Raizo holding them both by the wrists. Well, never let it be said Aimi failed to take advantage of an opportunity.

"Ma, Raizo-san, it seems that you've caught us," she murmurs in a low voice, looking up at the bushi holding her and Koi in place, "And what will you do with your humbled opponents, I wonder? To the victor, the spoils..."

Koi with the voice of a trained actress held within the arms of Shiba. "Oh no Aimi-chan, what ever shall we do?" She said playfully. "I shall try to negotiate a release.."

Koi winked at Aimi before reluctantly surrenders before whispering very softly into the Shiba's ear. "You have one chance here for a very good thing, sieze your moment. Just imagine the things we could show you Aimi and I? Hm? Things that men only dream of~"

Koi looked around before pressing her thigh delicately against the Shiba groin area. "Ah I dont know if my offer is good enough, might you offer assistance?"

Something fundamental stopped working in Raizo's brain, and he blinked a bit as a million possibilities flooded his brain.

"I wouldn't want to impose, but, uh..."

He glanced from Aimi to Koi and back again, his grip on their wrists becoming appreciably gentler. He actually stroked Aimi's with his thumb as he tried to come up with something clever to say.

He failed, but that was all right.

"I have a few ideas."
