Nakahama

Oof... got home late, busy with work, sleeping soon. will try to answer some things tomorrow

Soon enough Bayushi Senshuken arrives. This is a meeting at a beach, not at an embassy so she's dressed for the circumstances. A black pair of shorts, a black crop top and crimson sneakers. She approaches and offers a bow. "Good afternoon, Utaku san." She doesn't smile. This is a serious moment ...

Itsuka's apartment was the same as before. A mix of 'practical minimalism', rustic wooden furniture, and 'exotic Unicorn world' details here and there, framed maps of Shiawase Island and other parts of the Tango Province hanging on walls, a stylised map of the Imperial Worlds, a few more detailed ...

A meeting at an embassy might be the most right and proper thing to do. It might be what would be expected in most circumstances.

But many of the visitors would soon be going home, and where better to talk about the island than one of its most loved (and often crowded) places?

Itsuka waited ...

Again most of the day at work, except maaaybe lunch and then evening.

Utaku Kirara

Kirara would pause and stop herself from taking another drag when Itsuka neared her. She looked surprised at first, as if she was caught doing something that she shouldn't have been doing. Smoking, at least with a cigarette, wasn't ...

A festival wouldn't be one without festival food, and festival games.

Despite Itsuka's long-time difficulties on her relationship with much of her family -shiryo included - the Bon Odori had always one of her favourite festivals. That was true even from a tender age - perhaps it was the lanterns ...

Work work work

May be around-ish during lunch, will probably be around more in the evening

Itsuka can't help her mind from drifting towards her time with Kirara - and the long time she's had to spent without her now. Her mind still plays tricks on her, but the festival to the 'departed' sure brings to mind many difficult thoughts...

But she had to recompose herself. She couldn't properly ...

The Bon Festivals were often long affairs that could last all night for celebrants. Some people spent all night reflecting on the dead, while some families wrangled everyone together so that they could light a lantern on the beach. This goes double when it came to volunteers! Even as the last of ...

"I do," Kisha says, "and I can."

She proceeds to set her hands to those tasks, running drone after drone through initial power-up and testing with what seems a practiced hand.

"The past several days have helped," she says, looking to Taraka with a nod and a small smile, "but I do a lot of drone ...

Some rapid preparations having been made, the strange spectacle of a mounted Miya dressed in full formal attire--even to the horo--riding up to the Unicorn Embassy presents itself.

"The presence of Utaku Itsuka and Shinjo Suh-Hyun is requested and required," Kisha says, sitting up straight in the ...

"We can start, Utaku-san," Kisha replies. "It'll be easier when the rest arrive if we do.

"Speaking of," she continues, "what can I do to help?"


"We can start setting up the drones", she says, taking a couple of her own from her backpack. "When they're up and running, we should probably double ...

One of the two Unicorn responsible for handling a large part of the drone parade came walking back from one of the streets leading up to the Temple to Daikoku, backpack on her shoulders, a bag hanging to one side. Her lips hid a small, pensive smile, her eyes seeming to gaze far away as she walked ...

The festival was almost over. She'd played games, toasts have been said, the drone parade they'd organised had been done, going all the way down to Azuma Beach.

As the day came to a close, it was time to get back home

It was a fun day, all in all... but full of mixed emotions. Much as last year ...

Hitomi looks to the screen, of course. Its tale of tragedy was clear, if a bit old. Add in the skill at reading people that saw her tagged for training with the Doji in the first place and...the Utaku was not ok, in a rather public place.

She didn't know the full details, but this was definitely ...

As the Unicorn began to tell the story, Ichitaiyo quickly shifted to the booklet, and began to write everything down, every detail. Everything could be relevant or draw a clearer picture- to sort the data came later, first she had to have it at hand.

After the words of apology were done, the ...

Suh-Hyun leaned in conspiratorially, "Why yes, it's tradition Utaku-sama. Every pilot knows this, I'd question if you were one if I hadn't seen how well you fly." She said in a teasing voice, then gave a little wink and waved her hand imitating the gesture.

Leaning back she grinned, "Oh! I would ...

"I really like the idea of them carrying the lanterns. Might make it a bit trickier to pilot, but we should be able to manage it" she looks at Suh-Hyun "ne?"

The choreography itself... I imagine Kakita-san is probably more knowledgeable in that regard. We can improv a bit where needed, maybe some ...

Quick thing here!
