On the tall roofs of Shumpei's sumptuous estate, a lone silhouette stood against the full shield of Lord Onnotangu. While most of the figure's face was covered in shade, some liberally applied khol around the eyes and the mouth could be spotted, especially in contrast with fair hair, taking silvery sheen from the moonlight. Wrapped in what looked like a white sheet of cotton cloth, the figure was attracting attention by shouting in Merenaese.

"I AM LE GATO DE INVIERNO AND I CLAIM THIS CITY AS MY DOMAIN! PRAISE ME AND SHOWER ME WITH FISH AND FOWL, AND I SHALL PROTECT YOU FROM THE MONSTERS IN THE DARK! RENDER YE TOMCATS YOUNG AND FAIRE UNTO MY WHIM, AND I SHALL DIG MY FEROCIOUS FANGS AND PAWS IN ALL THAT YOU FEAR! WELCOME YOUR NEW HERO OF THE NIGHT! ON THIS NIGHT FULL OF TERRORS I ASCEND TO BE YOUR SAVIOR!"

Susumu looked out of his cabin's window, woken up by the shouting men.

What the hell is going on

He exited the cabin and walked back into the docks, grabbing a pack of dried and spiced up fish on the way out for precautions. It took a while to reach Shumpei's abode but enjoyed the idea that the man would also be woken up.

''Hey you there, I have fish for you''

Is it Ringo or another lunatic?

"LE GATO DE INVIERNO DOES NOT SPEAK YOUR SILLY LANGUAGE WITH RHYTHMIC SYLLABLES. SAKANA NAH NAH NAH. BUT KNOW THIS, FISHMONGER, THAT I DON'T ACCEPT ANY FISH. I MUST ASK: WHAT IS THIS FISH YOU SPEAK OF?"

The silhouette shifted, wrapping more tightly in the white cloth.

For someone who does not speak Rokugani he certainly understand that I have fish for him

''I have dried tuna flavored with spices from the Mantis Islands''

He raised an eyebrow

''Have you even tried the spices I speak of? Come have a taste, at least''

"NO ROOF CATERING? YOUR FISHMONGERY IS NOT UP TO STANDARDS OF LE GATO DE INVIERNO."

The silhouette tsk'ed.

The mantis rolled his eyes

''Well...do you want fish or do you not?'' he slowly stepped away

''Because it is going away''

"BYE BYE BLACKMAILING FISHMONGER. YOUR TEA STOCKS WILL END IN THE HARBOUR."

Anger flared in the voice.

''I could leave the fish for you to eat...''

He shrugged

''But you don't seem to want it? Don't you?''

He took a piece of fish out of the bag and waved it in the air

He looked up at the figure

''First of all...can you even get down from there?''

"WHY WOULDN'T I?! LE GATO DE INVIERNO CAN DO ANYTHING!"

The silhouette exclaimed with ferocious, unwavering conviction.

The Mantis remembered that cats could climb in places and be stuck there until rescued

''Do you need help getting down?''

There was hope that she might waylay any rash action before their journey by visiting Susumu tonight. Moving from the party to the Waterfront Kaiya and Sakia were still dressed in their better, fancier attire. Two elegant woman against the backdrop of sailors and party goers of another nature entirely most likely. Still trying to figure the best approach to the situation she almost didn't notice the commotion. Stopping just by the dock she too followed the sound of shouting only to find herself having retraced Susumu's steps and approaching beside him.

''Or I could help you get down from there, give you the fish and keep this secret''

He offered as Kaiya came to join them

Kaiya watched and listened as she approached, looking to the building with a discerning eye. Looking for how this individual may have managed to get themselves up there.

[OOC: TN/possible route to climb up there?]
