 Tsukiko Shizuka wandered back into town, a white bandage wrapped around one of the joints that connected his wings to his back. He sighed heavily, relieved to have been given a break from building and repairing boats at his mother's business near the river. His hands were scratched, as usual, but thankfully they didn't hurt nearly as much as they had when he first started working.
He looked around timidly at the Haka and Gehaka at the busy market, becoming less and less afraid the more often he passed through town. He sat under a tree, as was his custom, so that his incredibly pale skin wouldn't be roasted in the bright sun.

 tsukiko had just finsihed looking at a window display when he realized that his companion Kratos was gtone. He walked up and down the cobblestone path, looking for the gehaka with noe luck. He then spotted a gehaka having some trouble with baskets.
Tsukiko walked towards Hachiro. "excuse me, I'm looking for a gehaka named Kratos. Have you seen him?" The haka asked.

 As the dark-haired Haka unexpectedly approached him, Hachiro offered a quick bow before pondering on the other's question. Kratos, yes, the name was familiar...very familiar actually.
"Ah, yes...he was just here a moment ago, but I'm not quite sure where he went...my apologies." His quiet voice was slightly concerned, as though genuinely unhappy that he could not be of more assistance. That was just his nature, really.

"thank you very much" The haka said and smiled. He then looked at the cracked bucket. "do you need some assitance?" He inquired. "it's the least I can do for you answering my question"
Tsukiko had a very different view of gehaka than other hakas. He felt that the gehaka were just as equal though only stronger. He stood there, and kept his smile on.

Those aquamarine eyes widened as the Haka continued to speak, and Hachiro was immediately shaking his head, feeling an almost flustered feeling begin to stir within his veins. "O-Oh, no Honorable One, please, I can handle this..." A Haka to be doing the work of a Gehaka? Unthinkable. His mother would smack him upside the head if he even heard such a thing.
Another uncertain bow was offer to the chocolate-skinned superior, as though trying to placate him if his words had sounded rude.

"are you sure you can handle the work? it seems like a big load for one gehaka. let me help you" The haka insisted. He looked at the other with his green eyes. He understood completly why the other refused his offer.
"I don't really have anything to do today and I don't see any law that a haka can't do some work"

The Gehaka nodded again, shifting uncomfortably in place with one of the large baskets pressed against his bare chest. This completely went against everything he had ever seen or observed about other Hakas. "Please Honorable One, it isn't right for you to do such...and...my mother..."
The abnormally tall Gehaka trailed off, not wishing to speak ill of his mother, but knowing that he would not take lightly to the fact that his son had offered assistance from a Haka of all creatures. Haka were not supposed to do work at all..

 Enju smiled and nodded, sincerely eager to help. He was just about to grab the basket when another Haka approached them. He gave the other Gehaka a grin, amused at the situation, bowing low to the Haka. He wouldn't make the same mistake again. He didn't want to be bothersome though, if the Gehaka perhaps wanted to give a good impression on the Haka. He was not one for good first impressions or for those trying to make them when he was around.
He was sure to keep his head low and picked up the basket, revealing a sweet smile to the Haka, relaying a visual message that he had it covered. He had the same ideas as his new aquaintance had, that was higly inappropriate for a Haka, even he knew that. He would have spoke but he suprisingly remembered that that was not appropriate for a Gehaka even though not speaking seemed odd in this situation. Instead he kept his sharp grin on, holding the basket quietly.

The chocolate colored haka just shrugged. "well you can't say that I haven't offered. I just hope that the basket of yours doesn't break. It would be much easier if you allowed me to help..." He said.
"oh yeah, you don't have to call me honorable one. Just call me Tsukiko. So what's your name?" The haka asked as he followed the gehaka.

 Hikaru walked down the street, running his hands through his hair. Had he brushed it enough times this morning? Did he leave his hairbrush lying in the floor? He looked a little uncertain as he walked along. Should he go all the way back and pick it up? Hikaru almost hated the fact that he was Obsessed with keeping everything clean. He was still living with his father, who kept the house in a constant state of chaos, so Hikaru was the obvious candidate to keep everything spick and span. He rubbed his hands together a bit nervously as he walked, unsure of anything that was going on around him, but obsessing over whether he had put his hairbrush back or not...

 Those aquamarine eyes flickered in Enju's direction, lips curling in a wisp of a smile before returning his attention to the Haka. He wasn't being disrespectul towards Tsukiko-sama in any way--the entire situation seemed slightly ridiculous. Haka weren't supposed to lift a finger usually; that was the work of the Gehaka. Besides, he had Enju to help him, and his mother would throw a fit if he saw that Hachiro had 'made' a Haka help him.
"Yes, Tsukiko-sama. My name is Kohaku Hachiro." He'd let Enju introduce himself; Hachiro didn't know him at all, so he really couldn't introduce the other Gehaka without possibly offending him. "And I appreciate the offer of your assistance, but Enju, I believe, is quite capable of helping me carry the basket." A glance in Tsukiko's direction, and Hachiro smiled briefly. "The shop is not far."

Enju cocked his head and followed along side Hachiro. Ah, Kohaku Hachiro, a nice name. Enju examined Tsukiko carefully out of the corner of his eye, still keeping his trademark unbalanced grin in place. It was really amusing this situation and he was having troubles containing little snickers that found their way out in short quiet coughs.
He nodded in agreement with Hachiro, it was not right to have a Haka do menial work like this. He rustled his wings, deciding to introduce himself. Not proper procedure but then he wasn't too keen on proper procedure. At least he kept his head down.
"Tsukiko-sama, I haven't properly introduced myself. My name is Arehoudai Enju."

Shadow_windstars Hotaru snorted. "When my cousion become intrested in flower will be a day I rejoice," he muttered. This was not the behavior he expected in his cousin, it was just not Shinku. The blonde sigh, maybe Aunt had finally gotten to her son and had stopped his behavior.
The blue eyes lingered on Sada. The other was blushing heavily, and he had defended his cousin. His new friend wasn't starting to become attracted to his cousin, was he? Hotaru looked back at Shinku, he didn't see anyone beautiful or attractive.

 "I don't want to distrub my cousin yet. Is there anything you need to accomplish?" He questioned, shaking his head at his Haka cousin. Aunt had not mentioned anything that need to be brought or giving him an chore.

 "Well, not really. It is my time off before night fall, my mother wishes me back by then," Sada smile softly, almost chuckling. Two gehaka with nothing to do, but twiddle their thumbs really. It was funny to him.
