Kuni waited patiently to see who would show up to his event. He hated to admit it, but he was excited to see the various styles that will be on display.

His work done, Ayumu quietly cleaned up his workstation, returning his tools to their bag, throwing away the scraps of cloth that were too small to be of any use and storing for later the others.

Then, he walked around to get a better look at the other creations.

Sora walked in looking a little bit like a man going to his execution.

His daughter Phi, on the other hand, seemed to be nearly vibrating with excitement, taking a keen interest in each presentation.

Her turn on the stage complete, Akodo Kawauso joined the crowd. She seemed to be looking for someone in particular after Chizu's presentation, but in the meantime looked perfectly accessible and was smiling pleasantly.

Please PM or quote if approaching, just know Kawauso may step away to chat with Crab-san if possible.

And Misaki fell off the stage.

She was okay, mostly. Hadn't hit her head or anything. But she was now upside down with her feet sticking out of a large vase, which was in the middle of rolling on the floor where it'd fallen over after the slight Doji had fallen in it.

Oh crap.

Comical as the spectacle was, Sora was more concerned about the Crane's well-being, so he ran after the rolling vase.

Kawauso let out a fairly dishonorable "Eep!" as her friend tumbled and was immediately bounding to where the Crane had fallen. Working with Sora, both inventor and vase were put to rights, although a worried Kawauso was very hesitant to let go of Misaki's shoulders until she was certain everything was alright.

Misaki's voice echoed meekly out of the pottery as Sora and Kawauso took her feet, "Oh, hello there. Thank you for the help. Apologies for the trouble."

As the inventor was freed she appeared to be in good enough shape minus bleeding from her forehead.

"I seem to have taken a misstep. On the bight side, nothing fell out of the pockets, neh?"

Kinsen returns from the catwalk and provides a bow to the Imperial, then she poses again, saying, "See. your style has passed the test of time."

Nozomi was in attendance for this. Honestly, the mere thought of this was ... quite frankly a little amazing. Why? Well, because the Spider were hosting it, and the usually Dour Kuni was leading it. That was ... something to say the least. The fact that the Crab and Lion were coming out with such impressively eye-catching things?

She might have been taking notes. This wasn't normal heroism but she was tempted to call it something, and she wanted to share it for posterity.

"Of course not. Because Doji Misaki designs are so fabulous," Kawauso says, more motherly with concern than the full-on adoration that Misaki might be getting accustomed to. "Maybe, um, leave the modeling to me, Misaki-san?"

"You said you believed in me though..."

A very brief frown before Misaki nodded, "Still, you might be right. At least without practice."

Looking at Sora, Misaki bowed deeply, "And thank you for the help as well, Jiyo-san. It seems I am in your debt again here."

"I do believe in you. Just one small, uh, hiccup, on this one, right? So... maybe I can help you practice?" The Lion seems to believe that Misaki is ok and starts beaming at the idea of helping her practice her walk.

"No debts involved with it comes to the safety of our guests, Doji-san. Er. On that front..."

Sora ripped a swatch off of the end of his obi and offered it to her.

"For the, ah, injury on your forehead. At least until you can get it properly seen to."

"Oh? Um..."

Misaki looked a little and the motion loosened some blood from an eyebrow so it dripped over her eye. Misaki gave a quiet "eep" before taking the cloth that had been held out and shakily holding it to her forehead.

"S-So I see. I had thought I'd just bumped my head there..."

To lighten the mood hopefully, for herself if nothing else, she looks at Kawauso, "And I would appreciate that, Akodo-san."

Kawauso side eyes the Crane, noticing the little extra swoon at the sight of blood.

"Misaki-san," she says quietly, sliding an arm around her friend's back. "Could I escort you back to your room? Help you clean up... Just to make sure you're alright?" The Lion's worry is evident.

"It seems I have an escort, Jiyo-san. But thank you so much for the consideration."

A small bow, even as Kawauso moves to support her, whom she looks at afterwards, "I have medicinal herbs in my room, for the swelling and soreness, so the assistance is most appreciated in getting there."

Sora... smiled at Kawauso.

"Very well done, Akodo-san."

"Jiyo-sama is most kind, as always." The Lion bows her head respectfully, body steady to support Misaki. "Perhaps we might speak tomorrow? On only a small matter, I assure you."
