Mizu bowed low, greeting the patron. "Good evening sir, my name is Mizu, the younger sister of Serena-sama. I am only a simple maiko, a novice of the geisha arts, and I humbly thank you for your tolerance of my inexperience. I am pleased to be serving you this evening," she introduced herself softly, blushing in her nervousness.
"Please, let me pour you a cup of tea..." Grasping the warm porcelain of the teapot, the familiarity of the object calmed her enough so that she poured the liquid smoothly from the pot, turning slightly to face the patron with a sweet smile. "And if I could be so bold, may I ask you of your name, honored guest?" she added as she felt her ears heat, reflecting her embarrassment at her boldness.

"why thank-you," he said. "my name is Shagatsu. You are one of the first to be so kind as to ask me my name. Most other towns and places i have visited have not been so kind. And please, do not be embarassed. All geishas were at one point inexperienced. I am sure you will do quite well here, mizu! 3nodding

The young maiko blushed in response, hoping nobody noticed how her hands trembled as she set down the teapot. "It is very nice to meet you Shagatsu-sama, thank you for your encouragement. Could I offer you something to eat?" she asked.

Mizu smiled, serving Shugatsu what he had asked, her cheeks rather warm under her pale makeup, and shook her head emphatically at his comment. "No patron is small!" she insisted with a bright, girlish demeanor. "And yes, I think this town is lovely too..."

"Thank-you for this bread" Shagatsu ate a little, and then stopped for a moment. " Do you have a cloth or small piece of napkin i can wrap this up in? I would like to take it to the waterfall outside of the village so I may finish it while meditating." He said with a friendly smile. 3nodding
He couldnt remeber being treated this nicely...

"Oh! and if you like you may come also! I dont know if maiko are allowed to leave for a while, but its right outside the village at the waterfall!! I've built a small shrine there... its not much, but its so peaceful and relaxing there." Shagatsu was almost embarassed at the fact he lived behind the waterfall with only a blanket and some small nessesities...

Serena watched Mizu out of the corner of her eye, before turning to Yokome.
"Are you still looking for an older sister, young one?"Serena asked.

"Oh, please, finish the bread. You can always take another," she assured him. "As for meditating...I am not certain maiko are allowed to leave, but I can certainly ask." Catching sight of her Onee-sama watching her, she blushed, hoping she was doing and saying the right things. "Would you like more tea Shugatsu-sama? Or would sake be more to your liking?" she asked, shyly wondering if her Onee-sama found her actions proper.

Tora sat back with a contint smile on her face. She looked at everyone having a good time, and that's what made her happy.

Sayuri smiled gently towards Aidan.
"I'm pleased to know that my older sister looks after me, even as I am now a geisha," Sayuri said. "You must be new around these parts. Isn't the view from our town just spectacular? We rarely have a single dispute in our little town where the arts flourish..."

"Well of course, Sayuri-chan! Its just as though i were your real sister." Kyoku giggled then turned to smile at the new man in the room, Shugatsu-san. "Hello, my name is Kyoku. A waterfall you say? How amazing, ive never seen anything but pictures! How open is the invitation?" Kyoku smiled and looked at Serena-san. "Are you not intrigued Serena-san? Im suprised you would let Mizu go see such a sight without anyone to share it with, or chaprone for that matter." Kyoku blushed and covered her mouth as she giggled at the thought of her own apprentice-ship, sneaking out of the okiya late at night to visit friends.

"Of course she would go with others. I was simply letting her know she greeted him right,"Serena said with a laugh.
