 Mahou bent down slowly and picked up a small, withering, flower. Unlike most of the other blossoms in the garden, it was imperfect, thus making it beautiful in her eyes. Her gaze was fixed upon it for a few moments, her eyes scanning every little print and detail on each petal before she tucked it into her pocket. She had seen many new maids coming into the okiya, and she felt the more people there were, the livelier the okiya became. So, she was not unhappy with the constant flow of old and new people, but rather, felt a little more cheerful. Post 12

Yokome went out to admire the garden too. Her beautiful silk. pink yukata matched well to the sakuras blossoming during this time of year. She touched a sakura blossom and thought about how beautiful the flower seemed compared to everything else around her that seemed so dark.

((OOC: Wow, you all have been busy since I left! I'm sorry for not posting for so long! I'm going to have my character free now in case anyone needs anything!))
Okaa-san slid open the door to her room, stepping out into the hallway. She made her way gracefully downstairs into a small sitting room. She called out for a maid to bring some tea and settled herself on a cushion.

Luna entered and getting the tea carefully brought it to Okaa-san setting it down ever so careful not spill anything. "here you are." she was so quiet it seemed she didn't say anything. Her hair was left out and just barely reached her waist, it would have to be cut soo for it was getting to long for a maid. She poured with a strange grace as if she'd done it before, and setting the cup down bowed and turned slowly to leave the room.

 While she was thinking, Mahou saw another figure in the distance. Wishing not to be seen, Mahou scurried off. As she was walking into the okiya, she heard Okaa-san call for tea. Going over to the kitchen, she poured some tea into a small cup and headed towards the sitting room. She would have entered had she not seen another maid leaving. Understanding that she was not needed, she went back to the kitchen and set the cup down and left. Post 13

::as she stands up to continue her chores she sneezes. Looking left then right she gasps at herself then she speaks. :: Oh excuse me. :: She then politely bows excusing herself to finish her chores. As she moves on her way she makes a note to visit the rooftop soon as she is in need of some relaxation. She began working on her chores one by one very carefully to make sure they are done properly.::

((Occ: sorry it's taken me so long to reply, but I've been very busy!))
Yukiko frowned at herself in the mirror before she started to work on grooming her hair. "This will never do!" She thought as she started to work on scrubbing her hair until her scalp was red. She liked to give herself a good thourough washing, it was one habit her mother never scolded her on. Once her hair was finally squeaky clean, Yukiko towled it off and styled it in a neat bun. She looked at herself in the mirror with some satisfaction. Then she reached for her beautiful comb and held it in her hands. The memories of that day washed over her, filling her with a sense of accomplishment and pride. That comb, given to her by the old man, was an omen. Yukiko held her breath as she placed the comb gently in her hair. She stared at her reflection with a sense of amazement. "I will accomplish my dreams. I will become a star!" she vowed under her breath. Yukiko stood up and walked out of the room. She was now going to head to her first classes.

Tanpopo rose from her futon, putting her book under her pillow. Unsure of what to do, she sat down once more upon her futon waiting for something to do, waiting for someone to call upon her, waiting for something to happen..

Luna left the tea with Ooka-san and moved back into the hall though she didn't go back outside, in her mind, there were just to many poeple out there and she didn't like company. Sighing softly she headed up to the room she slept in and sat down on her bed with another sigh. "Father..." Beleiving she was along Luna ;et her voice go above a whisper. "why did you do this to me..." Luna was old enough to know her father had not done it intentionally but she still felt he could have protected her. Luna really didn't know who to blame at the minute for her saddness and pain but instead she did extra chores to take her mind off her memories. soon she'd cleaned the entire hall continuing until her hands and knees were sore and rough. Constantly she pushed back her hair is if it was a problem even when it didn't hang in her eyes she was never really concious when she did it.

Popo looked up and over to Sasami and smiled. "What is it?" She was happy to see another face, especially one so bright and cheery.

Yokome continued to stroll through the garden, then retuned to the inside of the okiya. She went to the kitchen and made herself some riceballs, rolling them up perfectly.
