[Moto Butaj]

"Butaj has made great romantic leaps on horseback. Soshi Yuuru is a good rider from what Butaj has seen, maybe he needs to try that too. When bodies cling to one another in full gallop, tender feelings emerge." Butaj says sagely.

[Soshi Yuuru]

He chuckled, "Sounds like a good idea... too bad I'd have to ask them to use their horse. Sounds like an imposition."

[Moto Butaj]

"Or a good way to tell how they feel. If they let your ride with them, that says something how they feel about you and riding." Butaj grins and pats Yuuru energetically on the shoulder in encouragement, then looks for Yuki and sighs dreamily. It is clear that he is thinking about her and riding.

[Soshi Yuuru]

He chuckled and followed Butaj's eyes, "Sounds like you should take her out for a ride soon then."

[Moto Butaj]

"Butaj will let her pick the time for things like that. After all there is a lot of Butaj to be happy with for a woman that is in love with him. And Butaj thinks she knows that." He wonders. "Butaj does not want to be nosy but he has heard something about you and the Bunny knowing each other well. Butaj wouldn't ask but he is very curious: maybe Soshi Yuuru knows why she has been waving the fan so much when speaking to Yuki."

[Soshi Yuuru]

Yuuru tilts his head, "I'd assume they're talking about us and she wants to cover her lips so we can't read them. She's harmless though Moto-san. She's probably just enjoying the story of your romance."

[Yasuki Tomonaga]

She takes the cup, a little more grateful for it now. She sips from the cup. She notes the whisper as well. "Tomorrow will be an interesting day, I suspect."

"Exactly." Tomonaga said. "And yesterday, I heard the same from a friend of mine about today. Guess he was right. That's not surprising. Togashi-san is wise." He smiled.

His expression brightened a little. "But! Interesting isn't bad, of course. Interesting can be very good, in fact." He hesitated a moment. "Perhaps that's not too likely this time, but, well, I think there's always reason to hope."

[Matsu Kogo]

She takes the cup, a little more grateful for it now. She sips from the cup. She notes the whisper as well. "Tomorrow will be an interesting day, I suspect."

"Exactly." Tomonaga said. "And yesterday, I heard the same from a friend of mine about today. Guess he was right. That's not surprising. Togashi-san is wise." He smiled.

His expression brightened a little. "But! Interesting isn't bad, of course. Interesting can be very good, in fact." He hesitated a moment. "Perhaps that's not too likely this time, but, well, I think there's always reason to hope."

Kogo looks slightly puzzled, not sure if the drink or something else is affecting her ability to follow the conversation. "What is unlikely Yasuki-san?"

[Moto Butaj]

"So Yuki is confiding her feelings for Butaj in the Bunny? What would the Bunny do with that?" Butaj is not really worried. He knows how women gossip among each other because his sister Gortun has always had many friends of that kind. But eastern women have their own ways, so better not to assume too much.

[Soshi Yuuru]

"Probably just get all warm and fuzzy inside knowing her." He said with a chuckle.

[Moto Butaj]

"Is this how women in the East get warm and fuzzy inside? By telling each other of their romances?" Butaj wonders, imagining Tomoe getting warm inside when thinking of Butaj. It's a strange thought. "How does it work? Will she be imagining Butaj and Yuki together now?"

[Soshi Yuuru]

He chuckled, "No... I don't know what goes on inside their hearts either... but I know they like it. They buy up books to read about other people's romances all the time."

[Moto Butaj]

Butaj rubs his stubble. "What kind of books are those? Do they have pictures?"

[Soshi Yuuru]

He nodded, "Some do. They're often called pillowbooks. Some can be quite tawdry, and others quite tame."

[Moto Butaj]

"Tawdry? Butaj doesn't know the word. Does it mean that people are pictured mating?" Butaj asks with mild curiosity.
