"One could hardly consider themselves stuck with you, I dare say." Tengu took the proffered hand and stepped in close. Very close, one might observe, as he began to lead the Fox in their dance. The positions of his hands weren't improper, but there was definitely a technicality being stretched in that regard.

"Have you been enjoying your dance thus far? I do so hate to interrupt, but I couldn't resist asking after you in particular."
"Tengu-san flatters." She chuckles lightly, amused with the direct advance although unaware of any potentially minor technicality.

"Indeed I have. My pair was extraordinary. Good grip, inspired and nimble. The interruption was polite. There's no offense, if not a test of restraint." Kinsen replies as she tries to figure out the person behind the mask a tad more. "Ask away what you wish, Tengu-san. I might provide a good answer."

"If the truth is flattery then there must be some dishonest souls about." That warm smile seemed to permeate the mask again.

"Ah, all very enviable features, I only hope I can compete with such as she." Tengu was very light on his feet, and as usual possessed an inhuman level of grace to his every movement. "I'll start off simple. Why the Fox mask, of all the potential options?"

Kinsen grins to his comment and completes, "Sincerity may wear many masks, but there's always one truth behind it."

Then, she provides a giggle before replying his question, "I confess I first thought of a tiger, then a lion, but it could display unwanted aggressiveness too soon. Finally a phoenix, but it would have shown too much. I returned to the tiger since... well... it's just stuck in my head after meeting the Gaijin. Then, I decided I should please our Imperial Consort. After all, the Imperial House allowed us to further enjoy their hospitality."

Hadananzi nodded to each idea in turn, giving a soft 'ahhh' at the end. "I see, you clearly put much thought into your choice of mask, though I can't help but notice that the majority of your choices are predators. Even the Fox, while not as aggressive as the lion or tiger, is perhaps more dangerous for its cunning and patience, waiting for just the right moment to strike out with tooth and claw." He smirked. "Wily creatures, foxes, and undeniably beautiful to behold."

Kawauso looks up, the frown visible below her mask softening at sight of her Scorpion friend. "Bayushi-san," she says, pleasantly surprised, though her voice takes a little time to fully warm. "Ah, no, um, danger of drowning," she says, holding her cup a little bit farther from her to suggest everything is normal.

"I, um, don't always meet expectations," she says with a sad undertone. "But, well, an unexpected good fortune to see you." There's a mighty effort at a smile that more or less succeeds.
Sasori smiled. "Good... because I was worried I would have to use my little knowledge of medicine on you." She shook her head. "Some say I am a lucky cat... nya" Sasori winked. She looked at Nozomi and sighed. "Maybe we should get new friends hai?"

"Ah, I just knew there was some truth to that thought. I'll have to take extra care not to act like prey before the young Fox." He smiled again. "How are you handling the unexpected weather? It seems a great many people are trapped here in rather...close proximity." Hadananzi may have scooched a bit closer to Kinsen as he spoke.

"I'm often either dressed up in hot clothes to care for some extra cold. Besides, we've been blessed with a steaming pool within the castle walls." Kinsen starts to laugh a bit at her sake fueled antics, and doesn't mind getting closer while dancing. "Tengu-san can't fly away either, I suppose. What are his plans to find food and shelter?"

"Mm, I have my own arrangements for finding what I need, and a trickster never gives away his secrets for free." He added a quick spin to their dance, necessitating that he tighten his grip just a hair, the soft scent of Hadananzi's personal soaps wafting across the distance between them. "Suffice to say I'm quite able to take care of myself, should the need arise."

There's a tiny giggle at the wink. "Is that what a lucky cat does? Find a grumpy--" she touches the small stag horns atop her carved mask, "er, a grumpy stag some new friends?" She gives another small giggle.

Taking a deep breath, Kawauso stands. She smiles at Sasori again. "I suppose I won't object, as long as they are of similarly high quality to my lucky cat."

"Oh, arigatou. I was inspired the other day. A lovely Scorpion lady wore her clothes this way, and mentioned other people should try it. I figured I'd try her advice, what the heck." He mentioned innocently, before offering his arm to Neko-san.
Kogi almost gives the game away by reacting with self-conscious surprise to that innocent comment, but the mask helps her stay unruffled and cool-looking. "It suits you very well, sir Moon. I hope it's as comfortable as it looks?"

She settles her fingers on his sleeve as invited. "From your lofty position up there in the night sky, I'm sure you see your fill of lovely ladies," she addes with a purr-ish chuckle.
"Oh, it is not bad. There is a certain comfort in the layers, to be honest." He started moving slowly towards the dancing group. "Sure, sure. Not as many lovely cats, though."

Genjiiiiiiii
Underneath the mask, Kogi has to smile at that riposte. The voice of 'neko-san' might carry some suggestion of the way a smile shapes sound, even if no expression can be seen on the wooden cat face. Well, not no expression; the cat's mood does seem to shift somehow as she ducks her head a bit and the light and lines of sight hit the mask's planes from different angles.

"Well, that's us cats for you, isn't it? You'll see us when we want to be seen."

"Must be quite the lucky man to have tamed one such as yourself. Here I thought I might have encountered a wild Fox, but it seems I was mistaken. All the charm in the world would avail me nothing but a polite smile and a shake of the head, of this I'm certain. But at least the dance was nice." Hadananzi's smile never wavered, but he did step back an inch or two.

"For one night, anyway," Kogi/Neko-san agrees, amiably enough.

Luckily for Genji, she is in no position to criticize his dancing, since hers is at about the same level. While Genji's 'something' seems to be pretty enthusiastic (unlike the masked cat, he'd actually managed to consume some of his drink, after all), Neko-san's lack of skill mainly comes out as a certain hesitancy or even skittishness... which does fit the theme of her costume, at least. And at least she wasn't going to actively embarrass anyone.

After moving with the beat through the dance floor, a figure in a flat stone mask - the pattern of the stone seemed to continue into the kimono under it - approached the wife of the Hantei, and gave a little nod. One hand went into a sleeve, and pulled out a small, clear bottle, a deep green that almost glowed coming from within, and tapped it's fingernails, then offered the bottle to the woman.

"Ah, the honor is mine."

Matching her pace, the veiled man's smile was invisible.

"I could not help but notice your natural grace and enthusiasm. Is it the party itself, or more specifically the dancing? I have not had the chance to visit the Crab, so I do not know the customs of your clan."
"I would have to say that it is the enthusiasm, since I have not had any training in dance, nor do I have the sense of a musician to understand music as fully as one would. I just react to what my mind tells me the rhythm is." She added as she continued following the beat. "My body is a little more used to outdoor movement, and to understanding the terrain and to react to it, that could had been a help to avoid stepping on others feet." She mostly joked. "But Ongaku-sama looks to have a pretty good sense of dancing himself. Did you take lessons?"

I, on the other hand, am the stoic yet boring son of hers." He shrugged, not bothered by the idea. "I am glad you are having fun though."
