Rokuro kicked himself mentally. "Of course, I didn't mean to imply otherwise."
He fixed the bulkhead with a contemplative glare.
"Still, they shouldn't assume that my respect for you is anything sinister; you're a capable woman, and you earned your place here. It's hardly fair to deny that."
An unfortunate side effect of magistracy was that you could, sometimes, come down with a bad case of justice.

"Life is hardly fair. If it were, then I would not have underdone the trials I have so far." The woman gave a faint shrug. "I suppose I am still capable, nonetheless. That is something to be grateful for."

"Hai..."
Rokuro studied her quietly, and then said softly, "You know, I think the crew will come around... maybe call it a hunch."

"Some things take patience, Rokuro-san," she stated with an amused smirk.

He studied that smirk for a moment, and then chuckled.
"You've made that clear. I didn't expect to be the one learning about patience, but you've opened my eyes to my own failings in it... I can't deny that."

"You have done the same for me," she admitted, still maintaining the same smirk. "In a way, the ship has been our child," she continued, "It rebels against us, we discipline it, we want it to succeed and flourish."

That brought an honest laugh, and Rokuro grinned. "And such a young mother. Such scandal."
Still chuckling, he added, "I won't call the crew children in public, but you have a point."

"I am not so young," she stated with a shrug, "Though I would not say I'm old either. As for the crew, I suppose it is best not to call them children, yes."

"Certainly not in public."
Rokuro gave a little shrug.
"Yet you aren't wrong, they are our... responsibility."

"I wonder of military commanders feel the same way." Akarei finally set down the list and gave her betrothed a small smile. "Maybe we should have stored more supplies than weapons. I would rather us not perish from lack of food instead of battle."

That brought a chuckle.
"Hai, though we would've had plenty, if we hadn't been passing it over to other ships time and again." He tried not to sound resentful. "One would've at least liked those commanders acknowledge our support."

"The others traded for it," she stated with a shrug, "It is not quite our ship versus theirs anyways. This voyage is all under the command of Hantei-no-kimi, after all."

"Hai."
He sighed.
"Though sometimes what we got was a receipt."
With a dry chuckle, he added, "Still, I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised, we have deep holds, after all."

"It is our duty to trade with them," she stated with a firmer tone, "It is not a matter of what is ours or theirs. We are a collective." The redhead let out a sigh and shook her head. "I would rather not have to repeat myself again and again."

Rokuro sighed. "Hai, I suppose I should be more clear."
He tapped the side of a barrel. "As captain, I feel some obligation to my own crew in particular. It will be necessary for all six vessels to ration themselves, or rationing by one cannot make up the difference."

"Let us hope that the other crews are undergoing rations as well. After all, it is hard for me to imagine that any crew would dare push the load on the rest." She suddenly let out a laugh and smirked. "And here I thought the Tansaku were the cynical ones."

"I'm a Sparrow... we haven't long considered the Great clans prone to... how should I say... restraint."
He gave an apologetic shrug. "So many don't realize where their food comes from in more than the vaguest theory, it can be easy for them to forget it can run out."
Shaking his head, he added, "But you make a good point, I should have more faith in my fellows."

She gave a soft shrug. "My family is not well known for its wealth. At the very least, I understand that food is not something to take for granted." The woman glanced at the supplies around them and then back to Rokuro. "Besides, I would say that it is up to the majority of the crew to manage the rationing, not us samurai."

"We still set the tone."
A soft chuckle.
"Well, I suppose we shouldn't loiter too long, lest the crew rumors grow more lurid in substance."

"More lurid," she stated, a bit taken aback. The woman patted down any dust and straightened out her clothing. "I see. I suppose it would be better to avoid that." She spun around on her heel and walked away without another word.
