Having (perhaps) finished checking in, this slim, young Dragon has wandered to the marketplace, looking perhaps to trade stories for objects, meet people, or just find something new and interesting to do.
Seeing the gathering of samurai, she makes her way slowly towards them, munching on mushrooms and checking out the merchandise on the way.
Yes, this looks like a very good place to set up a fire and tell some stories. Perhaps later today, perhaps another day. It all depends on how long the koku and the sake flow. Knowing those two, the sake will flow long after the koku have run away from her. Such a tragedy, to be so bad with money.

Dragon * Chronicler * Too Thin * smells like mochi * fireworks
Starting day 5, Shichi charm with braided ribbon, yellows, greens, and a red
Starting day 6, LE has weirdly mottled hands, all colored in browns and yellows, as if her skin had changed color. (fading D10, gone d13)
Starting day 9, LA, has ink stains on fingers. (gone d11)
Starting D13, new bracelet
Honor is the ideal. Unremarkable Retainer. Average Samurai

"Well, she's here now. So you should be too! If you must be out of your depth, be out of your depth together!"
It didn't make much sense, but Shizuka certainly was curiously fired up about it in a weirdly restrained way - she was no Ikoma, after all.
And yet, the rhetoric was going to get so much weirder.
"Believe in the belief that She shows in us, her children. Every day, the east burns fiery red at dawn!"

"Uh-huh. Well. That's... very interesting, Moshi-san."
The rest of you see this shit, right? I'm not just hallucinating?

"Very true words, Moshi-san. That does happen every day."
Though she nodded, there was definite camaraderie in the look Tomoe gave her fellow Shiba. Yeah I don't know what's happening right now.

"Oh, I know this one! Every night, the west burns fiery red as she takes her rest!"
She pauses, wondering if she said that right. She didn't think she'd hit the capitalization quite right. It's always so hard to make a pronoun really hit home. She'd have to work on that when she related Centipede stories. She bows deeply to the assembled samurai.
"I just came from the Castle of the Centipede, and it was marvelous! So shiny! Really, everyone should go there at least once. The statue of Amaterasu is worth it alone, even if you aren't there for stories not told widely."

Daichi looks absolutely confused by all of this. I need to be here, why exactly?
But most of the others also look confused, so she’s at least comforted by that.

Shizuka draws herself up to her full height, emboldened by Inoshishi's words - and aided those tall geta sandals she's got going on.
"That's right, Dragon-san! The shininess of Her statue reflects Her glory for all to see, even those who waver in their resolve after realizing just how many steps are on the stairs to Her shrine."
"This is your mountain to climb, Shiba-san, your chicken to chase! Take heart and go forth!"

Yep, that made absolutely zero sense whatsoever. Maybe I wandered off of the path, and I'm being fucked with by forest spirits?
Yes, that seems the most likely.
His expression remained impassive... and he said nothing.
Maybe if I don't play along, the forest spirits will get bored?

What was I called over here for again? I feel like somewhere along the way, that purpose got lost in translation...
Tomoe made that tactical decision to simply keep nodding.
