Ringo heads over to the House of Salt once more to catch a sumai match and have their food.

Sumai wasn't exactly a Sparrow sport, considering the uh.... logistical issues.

Still, since he was here, Rokuro thought he may as well catch a match.

Making his way through the crowd, he looked for a good spot to settle, feeling perhaps a little out of place.

Ringo spots a bird trying to find a place to perch. He offers him a polite bow. "Konnichiwa Suzume-sama. There is a spot here if you want to sit."

"Oh, thank you."

Rokuro bowed, and approached.

"I've never been to one of these events before... I'm Suzume Rokuro, by the way. Is it usually this crowded?"

Ringo bows again as he introduces himself. "I am Hida Ringo. Engineering student at the Imperial Naval College."

He nods to Rokuro's question. "It was popular even before it became home to the Imperial Naval College. Truth be told I didn't expect sumai to be this popular outside of Crab lands."

"Ah."

Rokuro moved closer, loitering by the seat for a moment, before taking it. He sat with a certain amount of poise, as if perched.

"I wish I'd had the opportunity to attend one of the colleges; unfortunately my duties keep me quite busy. Still, with current events, I am free to take part in a little recreation..."

Realizing he was talking about himself, Rokuro had the grace to look embarrassed, and inquire, "Do you enjoy Sumai? I admit I know very little about the game."

Ringo nods. "Well that is a shame but samurai have their duty to uphold. I do not recall seeing you around before Suzume-sama. Will you be joining the Imperial Explorers?"

He nods to the Sparrow's question. "Sumai is a noble court sport. One of the few that the Crab can actually get behind. The contest is to push the opponent outside of the ring."

"I will."

Glancing toward the ring, he added, "I assume there is more to it?" Just pushing seemed a bit... simple.

"There is a lot of skill and technique involved. Though you will probably understand easier by seeing it in action Suzume-sama." Ringo replies. He checks the ring to see if the next match will be starting soon.

"Ah."

Rokuro considered that.

"I find many things are more complicated than they first appear. Have you ever tried it yourself, or are you just a fan?"

Ringo shakes his head. "Um... no. I actually prefer gadgets over sports. Though I have no problem watching them."

He thinks for a moment. "I am sorry if this seems a bit rude but may I get your name Suzume-sama?"

Rokuro looked taken aback.

"I had said earlier, my apologies if I was too quiet, Hida-san... I am Suzume Rokuro."

Ringo nods. "My apologies that I missed it earlier Suzume-sama. Have you eaten yet? If not I recommend getting the chankonabe here. It is pretty good. He points out a nearby food stall."
