Otsuka wandered through the marketplace leisurely. She had already acquired what she needed now the question was if there was anything she wanted.
"Hmmm..."

A still damp sparrow was strolling the city, letting himself air dry.
The tests this morning had certainly not been what he was expecting, which left him worndering just how prepared he was.
Still, he had done his best, and that was all he could do.
Nonetheless, he had a pensive expression as he perused the market stalls, after all, who knew what a Sparrow might be looking for?

With the marine trials done, the mantis captain had a lot on his plate: His interaction with Ryoshida had shook him in a good way and he was not about to pick up slack.
I was browsing ware and speaking to a few different merchants to get estimates on the price of bulk purchases...

The Crane offered a polite bow to the Sparrow. "Ohayo, Suzume-san," she said in a pleasant tone, "Have you had your rice today?"

Rokuro glanced at the Crane, and then smiled, bowing in return. "I haven't, I was working in the morning, and did not wish to make myself ill. I was thinking I might seek a good dango stall. I am still new to the city."
Pausing, he added, "I'm Suzume Rokuro, clan magistrate." A second bow, and wry smile. "Might I ask inquire as to the name of this kind Crane maiden?"

"Kakita Otsuka," she offered a bow, "A pleasure to meet you Suzume-sama. What brings a magistrate so far from his clan's lands?"
Hunting a traitor? Offering Imperial testimony? Her mind swam with deeds fitting a pillowbook hero.

"This expedition, Kakita-san."
A faint smile.
"Even the Suzume would see what lies beyond the horizon, on occasion. Besides, who knows what sort of trouble we may come across? Some law might come in handy."

Yeah, but, like, Sparrow opium cartel law? She closed her eyes for a minute and hoped for the best from him. After all corrupt magistrates tended to dress nicer.
"Ah, that is a surprise. The Sparrow must be very serious about the expedition to send such a ranking member of their clan along for this journey," she said sincerely.
Oh! Wait! I get it now! Oh... that is sad...

Susumu's ear twitched when the crane and sparrow began speaking about expeditions and horizons. He turned to observe then, squinting his eyes has recognition did not come to him. He finally decided to approach the pair
''Good morning mina-san, are you fellow explorers as well?''

"Hai, my Aunt was most interested to see what I find out."
He smiled kindly, and then a Mantis spoke.
Offering the man a slightly more... polite... smile, Rokuro nodded. "Gusai-san, I intend to be, certainly. Suzume Rokuro, clan magistrate."

She bowed to the arriving Mantis. "Hai, this one is Kakita Otsuka. I also plan on joining up."

The Mantis bowed to them both
''And I am Gusai Susumu, Captain of the Walrus.'' he arched an eyebrow
''I do not recall seeing you at last summer's retreat...is it your first time in Dragon's Guard?''

"It is."
Rokuro crossed his arms, drumming his fingers, "I suppose your ship will be a part of the expedition fleet then? I look forward to seeing the Mantis's legendary vessels myself."

"I am just arriving as well," she nodded, "I hope to be of some use in the exploration."

He grinned
''Of course the Walrus will be part of the expedition...but I will be also part of the tryouts for one of the four new vessels.''
He raised an eyebrow
''Have any of you sailed before?''

"Not really," she admitted, "I am eager to learn though."

He crossed his arms with an air of concern
''That is quite problematic. This journey will be unlike any other and even experienced seaman will be put to test.''
He frowned
''This will not be pleasant...unless the captain you will serve under works differently then I''

Rokuro smiled blandly. "I'm certain there will be uses for us, after all, I'm sure the seamen won't want us underfoot. Better we provide other services when needed."

He smirked
''And what would that be Suzume-sama? I am curious.''

"It depends, each ship will, I don't doubt, need different things."
Rokuro smiled blandly.
"Whether that be entertainment, bookkeeping, arbitration, additional manpower, shore parties... there are many things I'm sure that Kakita-san and I can contribute."
