D7LA, Avon Calling (closed, private)

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

"You sound saddened by the prospect," Yuuwaku says. "The hummingbird is beautiful, and the bee yields honey."

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

"I don't want the bee and the bird to fight." She sighed. "The bird seems unsure on the flower and the bee is just a friend of the flower."

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

"Ah," Yuuwaku replies. "I think neither would be much trouble for the bird likely to alight. His iron resolve would do much to warn others away."

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

Hanatsuko laughed. "like a cock fighting for his hen. Oh my kami...this one is reminded of the bird fights in Shiro Toritaka."

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

"Oh?" Yuuwaku inquires. "I've never seen such things."

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

"It happens from time to time when training the falcons." She chuckled. "They spreads their wings and cry out... one can think of a duel without the swords."

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

"Have...have you done such things? Had your falcon fight for you?"

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

"Kuma... he does fight for me." She frowned. "I try not make him fight but he is very protective."

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

"A feathery yojimbo, then," Yuuwaku nods. "Though I doubt you have much need for protection."

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

"I don't... I should protect them instead of them protecting me." She stated.

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

Yuuwaku nods. "It is a good perspective to have," she replies. "You are a good woman, Toritaka-san. Whom you marry will be lucky to have you."

She smiles.

"Make sure he remembers it!"

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

"I will Kakita sama." She smiled brightly. "You are also a good woman and a good friend."

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

I can see why he likes you, Yuuwaku thinks.

"I am honored to be called a friend," she says. "I hope to be worthy of the name."

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

"I am honored to call you that." She wondered if she looked at lovely as she felt.

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

Yuuwaku takes a step back, regards Hanatsuko. She reaches forward, makes a couple of small adjustments, and nods with a satisfied puff of air.

"There you go! Beautiful!"

[Toritaka Hanatsuko]

The Toritaka felt beautiful and being reassured by the Kakita she smiled. "Thank you, Kakita sama." She gave a twirl to see how it moves. "Nice..."

[Kakita Yuuwaku]

Yuuwaku nods her agreement--because it looks nice, indeed!
