It was spring, supposedly. The lingering chill of winter seeped into Hanako's bones as she made her way north, heeding the call with a bounce in her step. It wasn't every day she got invited to a party and she'd be damned if she'd let the cold stop her from having a grand old time. Life in the Armada had gotten too serious, too heavy and weighed down by broken promises and questionable expectations, she'd always be grateful for the Warlord's kindness and hospitality but she didn't quite view things with the same rose tinted glasses. Was she finally growing up or just getting jaded? Who knew, not Hanako that's for sure.
But more than that, she'd be a liar if she claimed a certain Pirate King didn't linger in her mind, in the shadows as though the Wraith had gone and gotten herself lost in yet another crypt. But here she stood in the light and open space of the orchard, clearly having put a lot of time and effort into making this a party to remember. The sort that Hanako deserved to frequent, flexing old muscles that withered within the Armada's roster. Better late than never she supposed. The roaring heat of the firepit cast Hanako's form in a pretty orange glow as she approached, warming her from the outside in as she took a moment to shoo off the lingering shivers. She wasn't really sure what was up with the state of the world, but it was easy to forget when the snow was cleared from beneath her paws and her gaze wandered to the mountain of pelts and furs off to the side. Cosy.
Cutting to the chase, Hanako was quick insert herself at Sparrow's side, leaning against the bulk of her shoulder as though she had every right to be there. It'd worked brilliantly last time, why fix something if it wasn't broken? If nothing else she found a sense of comfort in knowing the pirate wouldn't shrug her off or shoo her away, she wanted validation by the bucket load and this seemed a good place as any to get it.
"It's really good to see you again." She hummed, going for the tried and tested glance up through her eyelashes.
Hanako will play spin the bottle!
