Whistles the Wind (Day 0 Late Evening.)

[Tsuruchi Shouji]

"Me first then?" He raised an eyebrow an set aside his cup so he could give the dice cup a good and proper shake.

"I suppose fortune favors the bold." He said with a small laugh as he slammed the cup down to reveal a rather mediocre hand. "Four points."

[Moshi Minari]

"Hah, those are rookie numbers!" Minari barked a laugh, full of confidence as always in a game, whether it be a game of chance or skill. Odds were, she'd beat four points easily.

Scooping up the dice for her turn, they rattled around in the cup for a good shake. "Maybe we'll get Tetsuo to pick out your outfit, eh?" grinning, she slammed the cup down and the dice fell still.

As the cup was lifted, it revealed... four points. "Eh?" Minari's eyes blinked in confusion at first.

"EEEHH?!? What the hell?!"

[Tsuruchi Shouji]

Shouji laughed at that, it wasn't what he had been expecting but it would do. "A tie then." He offered with a grin. "And as it's Captain's prerogative to decide the outcome in these situations we both lose."

He picked up his cup and brought it up in a kind of toast to his navigator. "I look forward to getting to see you dressed up as pretty as any Crane Maiden."

[Yoritomo Koemi]

Koemi tilted her head at the results. Then, it dawned on her. "Oh shit!" she exclaimed, grasping the side of her hair.

[Otomo Yusuke]

The Otomo chuckled at that and said, "Oh shit, indeed, Koemi-san."

Who knew his brief education with the Tortoise that night would pay such dividends today.

[Yoko]

There it all was, Yoko, for her part, was a ball of laughter as she tried to make sure her gut stayed intact by gripping it and leaning backwards. Testing the idea of going all the way back toward the floor but keeping herself relatively upright. That laugh only got harder when the Otomo joined in the comment she only briefly didn't quite understand.

[Yoritomo Tetsuo]

Tetsuo refilled everyone's cups, starting with Minari's. He let out a loud chortle at her loss.

"Fortune favors the captain, it seems Minari-sama." He was still laughing. "Perhaps you can borrow from Meiko-sama?" He seemed to find the idea endlessly amusing. "You'll even have to hold your kiseru like a lady!" He mimicked a hoighty-toighty hand holding technique, as he imagined it to be. It was probably not accurate.

[Tsuruchi Shouji]

"I'm not an expert there, but I'm pretty sure a properly demure young woman doesn't smoke, Tetsuo." The Captain replied with a chuckle. He might have lost as well but at least this way things seemed worthwhile.

"I suppose I'll need some advice on how a properly rough and bold Mantis Captain dresses for events though." He looked around the group. "That's going to be a new one for me."

[Moshi Meiko]

Tetsuo refilled everyone's cups, starting with Minari's. He let out a loud chortle at her loss.

"Fortune favors the captain, it seems Minari-sama." He was still laughing. "Perhaps you can borrow from Meiko-sama?" He seemed to find the idea endlessly amusing. "You'll even have to hold your kiseru like a lady!" He mimicked a hoighty-toighty hand holding technique, as he imagined it to be. It was probably not accurate.

"I have lots of clothes that would fit! We can probably even manage 5 layers if we're strategic. Minari-san would look like a proper young lady."
