Nonoko let the waves inspire her as she started to move side to side following the rhythm. The Lion started humming based on what she hears and tries to come up with a song.

It was such a hot day. Even the proximity of the Harbour did little to stop it. Thank the fortunes for temperators. As Taraka was heading off to the bar, she saw the small Lion putting on a small show to the waves.

"Evening, Ikoma-san." she said with a bow. "We do seem to meet often when the weather is being extreme."

"Huh... oh hi Yasuki san." She smiled. "At least is not as hot as this morning." The Ikoma nodded. " no need for an umbrella this time around."

Taraka smiled.

"So what have you been up to since we last ran in to each other?" she asked, curious.

"I continue my photographic journey. I went to the lower parts. Interesting area and rustic." She nodded. "I have been cooped up in my room doing work. The weather here is a bit extreme... I wonder if you should work something out with the Mantis and find some new weather equipment from them." The woman shrugged.

Taraka chuckled.

"Are you not a fan of extreme weather, Ikoma-san? I suppose with enough spiritual manipulation we could make every day the same as the other, but we'd be losing something that makes us...well us. You appreciate the rain more when you've been so very hot, and the sun more when you've been drenched in rain." she proposed.

"I know... but we don't have to go from hurricane winds and rain to scorching the face of the planet in less than one week... there are grays and pinks... like the sunset i watched the other day." She smiled. "I doesn't have to be the same everyday but mild might be best with a challenge every now and then... if a game is too difficult players will give up and only a few will actually buy the game... if the game is too easy they will give up because it doesn't pose a challenge." The Ikoma explained. "There must be a happy medium... I think same for the weather."

The real reason the Crab didn't do this was it was incredibly expensive, and their funds were better spent elsewhere.

Taraka nodded.

"I could see that, Ikoma-san." she admitted. "Might I ask what the weather is like in your home?"
