0mega_Virus Solice waved a hand towards the seat, and motioned for the bartender. "What'll ya have Amaya?" he asked, as he finished his Abarashi. Akira noticed the man and smirked. Ah, perhaps some company would do me some good?Akira stood up elegantly, shocking the people around who had not noticed him there before, and walked gracefully towards the blue-haired man. Akira took a seat next to him, and ordered a bottle of warm sake. Silently, he listened to the man's conversation with the other, his dark eyes hidden.

Makoto hurried into the lounge to escape the rain. She shook out her parasol.
"Oh my, its really starting to come down out there."
She placed her parasol down into the bin while she looked around this new place. She quickly spotted Nitta and Kyoku she waved to them rushing quickly over bowing before she spoke.
"Nitta-san, Kyoku-san its a pleasure to see you both here, how have you been doing?"

Ki shook her hair as she stepped in from the rain. She was soaked. Checking to see if she had her weapons with her, she walked into the bar, her soft boots leaving thin puddles behind her. After choosing a seat, she sat down at the bar and lounge and took off her boots. They were soaked - it'd take some time for them to dry off. Blowing on her hands, she looked around. It seemed rather quiet tonight - other than the few samurai and geisha (or was it maid...?), it didn't seem to be that lively. Ki's eyes moved to her hands, and she worried a hangnail as she waited for a bartender to come.

Nitta stood and returned her younger sister's bow.
"I have been well, Makoto-san. How has it been for you, being a new geisha and all?"

Makoto smiled bowing her head again.
"Its been quite exciting but I still have so much to learn. The girls around my okiya and at the tea house have been droping hints about needing an older sister but I don't think I am experinced enough myself to take on a younger sister.

Nitta smiled.
"I think that you are well qualified to become an elder sister." Nitta encouraged her. "And there are so many maiko right now that elder sisters are desperatley needed. Perhaps you should give it a little more thought?"
Nitta gestured to a seat. "Won't you please join us?"

Makoto blinked taking it all in.
"Oh thank you."
She sat down beside the others still in thought.
"There has already been a Maiko in my Okiya who has asked me, and I had also promised to a friend that when either of us became Geisha we would take the other on as a younger sister. I just did not want to be a poor example but, perhaps you are right, I will give more thought into their proposals."

"Dont be worried Makoto-chan, you will be a wonderful older sister! Oh did i tell you Nitta-san? I just accepted an offer from a maiko named Mitsuka to become my younger sister! Now i have her and Kikaru, and of course Iyasu and Sayuri are now geishas! Life goes by so quickly you will find Makoto-chan." With a wane smile kyoku turned towards the bar with the wine resting on it and poured herself a glass.
"Would anyone else like some?"

kairisesshy "Well we certainly dont clean Shagatsu-san! And i have been doing very well thank you." Kyoku giggled and pulled her fan from her sleeve. "Night-san, do join us please." She waved to him a bit to join in the conversation. (Hajimemashite dozo yoroshiku means How do you do?)

Makoto smiled softly.
"Perhaps you're right. Oh Mitsuka-chibi...I mean san, she's from my Okiya, she's a bit of a handful in classes and even at the Okiya, sometimes I wonder if she really knows what she wants to do with her life, but I am sure with your guidence she will learn, Kyoku-san, please take care of her."
Makoto bowed her head lowly.
"Some sake would be nice."

"Congratulations, Kyoku-san! Do you have any other younger sisters right now?" Nitta smiled.
She looked at the man who had joined them. "Welcome, Ronin-san! Please, have a seat!" Nitta smiled. "Would you care for something to drink?"

Makoto sighed.
"Its just that...that girl, we used to be friends but now she ignored me, and whats wrose, I asked a maid if I could look at her parasol, just to admire it, and she dared to snatch the maid away and try to run off with her completely disrespecting me as a person of her own okiya and as a geisha. She simply cannot do that, what if I were a parton, a geisha from another okiya, or a danna. No one would stand for that, I think. I just want here....and all the girls in my okiya to be successful."

A cloaked figure comes in from the rain, shaking his cloak a little as water drips off of the edge of his hat. Not wanting to get the floor drenched, he removes both cloak and hat, placing them to the side with his shoes. If one were to look closely at him, they'd recognize him as Neyon, master of the Hidden Weapon.

Conversation was interesting. And the geishas were beautiful, as they tended to be. Ki was enjoying the sounds when she saw the cloaked figure come in. She looked once, casually, then did a double take. He seemed familiar, but nothing came to mind. Hm. She grasped her katana and ran her hand down the handle of it, as if to assure herself it was there. Maybe he'd jumped her once - that was probable. Who knew. All Ki could do was stare at him. He was a hazardous-looking character.

"Did you tell your mother about that Makoto? I would never tolerate such behavior!" Kyoku gaped slightly as she poured sake for her.
"Ronin-san? Do you care for sake or something else?" she glanced over to the man and smiled coyly.
