Akito smirked. "And yet, you're offworld, say you're from here, and someone's like 'oh, you must know Yasuki Taro, he's from there...'" He shook his head. "Every time."
One last drink, with Akito banging his cup a few times on the bottom, and he set it down empty. "That's much better." And indeed, he looked better too, with healthy color and more animation in his movements. "If I find myself in need of a gift, well, I know who to ask, then."
He stretched, arms reaching up over his head; he had a bushi's build, it was clear. "Maybe I can get it from your place." He suggested, smiling. "Wherever that is. If you're in logistics or, I don't know, your company makes giant steel construction beams, guess that's no good. But in fact they...?" He looked at her, eyebrows up expectantly.
Taraka certainly did take a moment to appreciate the lean form of Akito as she finished her own drink. There was more than one way to get the blood flowing, that was for sure.
"Flying Battle Carps" she supplied, unthinking. A bit of brain fog and a bit of sexy thoughts left the Hiruma without an explanation of what that meant.

Fortunately, Akito was a local, so he only had to stare uncomprehendingly at Taraka for a moment.
"Oh! Right. The drones, yeah?" Akito grinned. "I think I actually have one of those lying around broken somewhere. I sucked at it, but I could at least manage to buzz my brother with it. Until I did that when he was practicing with a bokken, and, well..." He shrugged. "Alas, the consequences of my actions..."
He smiled at her. "Maybe I'll stop by sometime. Check it out again. Could be fun."

Brain was fully up to speed signified by a quick shake of the head.
"To be completely fair, Hiruma-san, you're not supposed to use them to buzz people. You were that kind of naught kid huh?" she teased.
She nodded at the offer.
"Sure, feel free to stop by any time. While we don't officially offer repairs, I'd be willing to look at your old carp as a favor. Certainly for cheaper than Steel Claw would offer you, and without annoying Tetsuo Auto Repair." she offered.

Akito flashed her a quick grin. "What can I say? Sometimes it's more fun to do things you aren't supposed to. Wouldn't you say so, Yasuki-sama?" His tone had just a hint of playfulness in it.
He brushed a hand over his face one more time, as if brushing the last of the sleep away, then rose to his feet. "Maybe I'll take you up on that, then. Mom's always on me to help clean out the old storage shed. And as soon as I do, she tosses more junk in there. I'm starting to think it's a scam to keep me busy on my days off." He picked up his empty cup. "See you around, eh?"

Taraka rubbed the last of the sleep from her eyes. He certainly looked more like his brother in this light.
She offered a polite bow.
"Indeed, Hiruma-san. Come down to the shop and we'll see what kind of new trouble we can get you in to." she said, returning the playfulness.

"Mmm." Akito murmured, his lips curling into a smirk. "I'm looking forward to it."
With a bow, he departed... but not after tossing his cup in the recycler. He may be the sort of troublemaker that would buzz his brother with a drone, but littering was just wrong!
