(D4, EA) I Like Horses

[Tonbo Misa]

Misa giggled quietly into a sleeve. "I believe that is just the words he would say, yes. Though he surely has many other ladies looking his way... so to speak."

[Moto Khulun]

“I am not surprised, he is Butaj, it is known,” she says softly but just loud enough to hear.

[Matsu Yurio]

Yurio had turned an interesting colour again. It must have been mention of fathering children. Yes, must have been that.

[Tonbo Misa]

Misa gave a small nod, missing the looks and colors, but going on. "And what of Moto-san? Has any suitor caught your eye to br brought off to your tent... or to take you off to theirs?"

[Moto Khulun]

She plays it coy, “The Lion and Dragon have strong suitors, we shall see if they can measure up.”

[Tonbo Misa]

Misa nodded a few times. "You speak of Togashi Udo-san and Matsu Nintoku-san, hai? I have not met the later, though I can speak of the strength and adaptability of Togashi-san. His family has always been that way with mine at least."

[Moto Khulun]

She nods, “Both are good in their own ways, Sayyeda Udo is a brave soul. A worthy match.”

“Sayyeda Nintoku has grown on me, I find his passion burns deep.”

[Matsu Yurio]

He might not like him, but Kitteh supports Kitteh.

"Matsu-san is a great example of the best our family can produce."

[Tonbo Misa]

"I would of course speak for Togashi-san because I wish to strengthen the bonds between the Unicorn and Dragon, but my family has a bit of a... tradition of speaking for love over bonds, for good and ill. I know Moto-san will make the right choice in the end." She smiled toward Khulun, a bit careful with how she phrased things.

[Moto Khulun]

Khulun replies, “Both are strong suitors, the choice will be theirs not mine, be honor in either case.”

[Tonbo Misa]

Misa's head tilted with a touch of curiosity. "Oh? Moto-san seems more the sort to make bold choices on her own rather than have another choose for her. Is this something I misunderstood?"

[Moto Khulun]

She laughs and says, “If I had my way I would have grabbed suitor and left on first day but rules are not so. We shall see what happens, I am willful like those of my blood before.”

[Matsu Yurio]

"The results on the miai may overrule many plans. It is best to wait until the order has been established."

[Tonbo Misa]

The curiosity left and was replaced by a grin once more at Khulun's words. "There's something to be said for being whisked off on horseback by a strong, caring suitor. Still, it's probably better this way. The Imperials, Crane, and Scorpion would have had a fit."

[Matsu Yurio]

He noted how the Tonbo had missed the Lion out of that comment . . . considering.

"Things must be done . . . right."
