Dark Edge Village

Hiroji stands at the edge of the horsemanship field. He glances sadly at the field as he waits for the others to arrive.

Tomonaga arrived not long after, carrying a small bag. "Hiroji-san." He acknowledged his friend with a grunt and a nod.

Hiroji nods to Tomonaga. "Good afternoon Tomonaga-san."

Kogo arrived, clad in clothes from the dojo. "I am sorry for my appearance minna-sama. But I am here." She bows to both.

Tomonaga nodded, looking around. "Who else are we expecting, anyway? Matsu-san, I imagine? Any more besides that?"

His question was at least partially answered by the arrival of Kogo. "Oh, Matsu-san. Good afternoon." He shot a quick grin back at Hiroji. "Well, the rest of my question stands."

Hiroji shrugs. "Shinjo Taichi I believe, a few scorpion perhaps." He nods to Kogo. "Good afternoon Kogo-san."

Kogo nods to them both. "It is good to see you Yasuki-san. How does the day find you?" She nods to Hiroji. "I hope your day has gone well, Hiroji-san."

Hiroji sighs. "For now. Though I've a feeling that will change. How about you, Kogo-san?"

She shrugs. "Another day of waiting. The event is not favorable to my knowledge, but at least the day is fine and I have had good company."

Tomonaga's lips twisted in amused agreement. "Yeah. Well, that last bit is something, anyway."

She smiles. "Yasuki-san, speaking of good company, were you able to find what I had asked of you?"

Look at them, all lined up!
Makes you want to take a bow and shoot'em all down!
We don't have a bow, though!
Eh, I didn't want to do it anyway!
Yeah you did, you're just pretending you didn't!

Yuzui headed over to where she'd been told to meet. She was only vaguely aware of the what and why of it. Other than that it was about that stuff back with the Onyx champion.

So there she was, approaching the group of samurai, giving them a half-assed little wave before she arrived.

"Afternoon samurai-san's, is this... is this where I was supposed to show up?"

Well, they wouldn't know if it was if they're not the ones you're here to meet!
Oooh, that's a good point!

HIroji seems a bit surprised to see the mantis there, but nods. "Yes, I think so Mantis-san. How are you doing? Injuries acting up?"

Asakiko arrived bit late. She nodded to the present and gave them a bow. "Blessings."

Kogo sees the Mantis walk up and is slightly confused. "Yuzuki-san. How are you this afternoon?"
