"Kill you?" Nesshin asks. "Doesn't sound very friendly."

"Recent days, with so many different folks here, have made me...check on that kind of thing," Nesshin notes.

"It is," Nesshin replies, "but it's a different thing entirely to be in the miai instead of working the event. Just as it's different watching people fight and dping the fighting."

Having done particularly poorly in the previous day's archery competition, Shiba Taemon returned to the dojo. Seeing it occupied, he did not seek the bow, but instead took up one of the dojo's practice spears to work on his kata. He did offer a squint, a frown, and a bow to the two already training.

Raizo returned his clanmate's bow.

That guy... needs to lighten up.

Nesshin also returns the bow. Seeing the attitude, however, he does not say much at present, only asking "Does the day find Shiba-san well?"

Politeness, certainly, although an agenda roll will be coming--noted because dayflip approaches...

"It does, Shika-san, thank you for asking." he replied, though his visage did not improve. "How does it find yourself?"
