rain rain..stay a while.

The rain pattered against the leaf carpeted floor gently, filling the air with pleasant ambiance as Hattori's ears tipped forward to listen. Though the canopy above was thick enough to keep most of the rain out, it really was coming down out there, resulting in a slight drizzle at best beneath the towering trees. Hattori didn't mind, getting a little wet would do him no harm certainly not after how warm last season had been.

He settled in the communal area, stoking the fire and giving it more fuel as he put some water on to boil in a hanging pot. Tea always tasted better in weather like this, helped fit the mood...though some company wouldn't be entirely unwanted either.
