Lamen to You, Lamen to Me (D7, LE)

[Ichiro Daisuke]

He'll accept the pour, though he wasn't in a rush to drink more. "I suppose I'll have to put some practice into saying them sober then. It might leave a better impression that way."

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

"I'm sure it would help." She replies. "Meeting you sometime without a drink in hand would be something nice, too. Perhaps in the morning, for breakfast. Would you like to meet the shiotome?"

[Ichiro Daisuke]

"Well I've met most of those here." Perhaps even all of them. "But I wouldn't mind such a meeting. I don't think it would work out tomorrow though."

He had little idea why he was agreeing. If he had missed someone it was far too late to start getting to know someone new.

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

"So you've met Imane-chan?" Her eyes sparkle with curiosity while the keeps folding the piece of cloth in her hands.

[Ichiro Daisuke]

"Yes, a few times." He confirmed, thinking she must of forgotten their brief meeting some day before, where Chi-pu and Imane had been present. Perhaps it was because she didn't wish to think on the older Battle Maiden.

"I enjoy her company." He offered after a few moments, his feelings on the matter of the smallest of the battle maidens a bit uncertain at the moment.

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

She snaps her fingers, reminding herself of their meeting. Then, she blushes. "Gomen. Of course you've met. I was rude."

I enjoy her company, eh... you're nailed.

She smiles. Just that.

[Ichiro Daisuke]

"You've had a eventful week." He replied, most of them had, but her more then others. With the death of Chi-pu and falling in love with girls.

The smile was a bit strange, but he dismissed it. It's not like he was a hunted beast or something.

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

We all did. She doesn't quite read him, but nods and continues to finish her supper. "You seem bothered."

[Ichiro Daisuke]

"Oh, it's nothing Otaku-sama." He offered her a small smile. "Just had a odd feeling there for a moment."

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

"Is it the food?" She sniffs her food. "Vendor-san told me they where quite fresh. Oh, Kami."

[Ichiro Daisuke]

"Oh, no nothing like that." He assured her, moving to take another bite of his second serving of noodles. "It just felt like I was being watched there for a moment. As silly as that might sound."

"The kind of feeling you get sometimes as a scout if a predator is nearby, or perhaps one of your instructors playing the people hunting you." He offered her a small smile. "So as I said, nothing important." Someone had likely just noticed them sitting together and found it interesting.

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

"Oh. I'm glad." She looks back into the shadowy corners of the village streets then back at him. "Gekko normally senses when danger is nearby to warn me out."

[Ichiro Daisuke]

"That must be nice, it sounds like you always have someone to look out for you." It was different as a scout. You were most times out alone, or in a small group.

[Otaku Kitakuhime]

She nods, cheerfully. "When you become Unicorn, you may have one to take care of you, too. That is, if you take care of your horse, in return. Loyalty, ne!"

[Ichiro Daisuke]

Loyalty, there that word was again, though he might of got a glimpse into what she meant from the word with that sentence. "Perhaps, I think that would be a bit down the line though."

"I'll need more practice riding after all, and if have to learn how to care for them as well."
