Kawauso moves forward alongside Sora, setting the trap for the great beast. Her grip tightens around her beloved Ryu-yari as she prepares to receive the bear's charge. ------------ Free move on line with Sora Simple to ready Ryu-yari if it wasn't Initiative: 25 .

"Ah, the opportunity goes to Mother Moon alas, I am just here to be your humble host." He waved towards his mother. "Carving? That is a skill highly regarded among some of the Stag, so you have found the right audience." The stag-masked Lion laughs, light and polite. "Please, uh, carry my, er, our ...

Despite an eventful morning, Kawauso remains unable to stick to her room and wanders again. She returns to the gardens, which are as close to being beyond the city walls as the tall Lion is going to get today. She's keeping her heavy woolen cloak close around her, but it's clear she's dressed warm b...

A tall but rumpled looking Lion samurai-ko happens to be wandering in the garden, looking almost literally like she'd just been wrestling a bear. There was no armor under her heavy woolen cloak and she'd changed clothes, but her hair was barely contained. Sort of up, but with a long, loose-ish ponyt...

As it so often was when Kotsume talked, there was much to process. Kawauso sat down cross-legged, scowled at the pile of wood butts and shavings that was beyond reach, and then made her peace with the idea that the otters were probably going to spread them around the room. If I didn't want to clean ...

Kawauso can make some. Didn't figure she'd need them (not in starting inventory, figuring to make some in game) and then, all of a sudden, snow so she can't just go find some good pieces to sharpen, and here we are.

I wish Kawausohad a bundle of spears. She throws so well. But I'm not tossing my great spear...

'' I don't agree with that statement. In this one's opinion, artistic expression is created by expressing feelings. Everyone can be an artist in a moment of inspiration. Sure, there are those that could be considered masters, as in everything that ningen experience.'' He told them. '' But, the expr...

Kawauso has had to fish around creatures of similar stature and disposition, especially around the fall spawning runs. This grumpy fellow was just the latest predator she'd face down.

Fear check: 20 vs TN15.

Kawauso is quick to size up the target, the terrain, and get ready. ------------ Initiative: 25 . Stance: attack.

'' And yet it carries your personal mark and it shows the beauty and creativity you bring forth, Stag-san.'' He added. '' A warrior with an artistic heart indeed.'' The stag-masked Lion is thankful that her mask and the lighting don't reveal her blush, although the cat-masked Scorpion can feel her ...

Kawauso was bundled up appropriately, still able to move and function just as a hunter should -- well, the armor was more than she'd usually do, hunting back home, but this was something menacing enough to be active in deep snow. Take no chances. In her eagerness to not be left behind, snowshoes flo...

The excitement is a bit much to bear when Kawauso was trying to sulk, but "little" sister and her otters are hard not to smile at, in spite of everything. "Oke--okay, okay, come in and... A little quieter, ok?" She half pulls Kotsume into the room, then casts a grumpy glare both ways down the hall b...

Struggling a bit with juggling this game and Bellionas, so apologies to all those waiting for posts. I think with Day 3, I will have to try to pace myself a bit more with focusing on only the threads I can handle (and focus on plot-scenes). And not rush to fill up doing everything that I usually do...

'' What do you mean? This one had a nice time, and i hope that Stag-san had as well, if not then please accept my apologies.'' Kawauso might had not been the best dancer, neither was Yatsufusa. The masked fox-dragon bowed to her. '' In fact this one must give his thanks to you. You were most kind a...

"Then let's swim around and find a fish." Sasori giggled. "You should have wore an otter mask instead of a stag... nya" She winked from behind her mask. Kawauso chuckles, getting the metaphor after missing it originally. And she smiles at her conspiratorial scorpion friend's wink as usual. "I'm an ...

The Lion purses her lips and nods solemnly. "The Ongaku carry a weighty duty, then. The empire is vast, as I understand it. The miles and miles up this river to my home is comparatively fast and clear, but just a tiny portion of the distance from the far north to the far south." Kawauso looks at him...

"But first a question..."She looked up. "Do Stag know how to swim?" Sasori giggled. Kawauso raises a hand to her chin in thought, then smiles and stands tall. "I don't know about other stags, but this one is quite a swimmer." She lowers her volume a bit as she steps out of her ball character. "Swim...

"Of course, Ryoshun-sama," Kawauso says warmly, bowing. It's more the kind of bow a child of the kami would expect than what she's seen from the Lion so far, suggesting she's earned some respect from the river person.

/scene? I feel good about this.
