let's stick together just a little bit longer Kiriko had settled into daily life within Tojo-Kai in much the way she managed to fit into any of her previous lives. Blend in. Don't draw attention to yourself. Keep your head down, work hard. She'd set about harvesting lotuses to turn to silk over the winter, and processing hemp to make paper. She'd collected seeds from both plants to add to their seed stores, preparing for the winter and on into the spring. Still, she was playing her cards close to her chest. Kiriko still viewed getting to know her packmates as a risk. There were other risks within the bamboo maze... like the one she encountered now. While the woman had done a pretty good job learning to navigate it, she still made the occasional wrong turn. It was this wrong turn that had her walking around a blind corner and nearly straight into Hattori's rear end. She stopped only just short, a small noise of surprise followed by a swift apology. Her head bowed, expression soft. "Forgive me," her tone is that of a girl who's been taught respect on pain of things fairly sorely imagined by the average citizen. A girl that was trained from birth to be seen, not heard. Kiriko took a long step backward, now peering into the den where the Kaicho's gaze had been trained. The glint of light off of scales-- ah. "Do you need help?" Not entirely clear on how to help, but she'd be here to assist all the same. |
