Stereotypes had the Unicorn as savage barbarians. Devourers of red meat and strange spices. Rumors were not entirely incorrect... but that does not mean that they did not have a palate, and appreciation, for Rokugani cuisine. If anything they likely held those who could create such in higher esteem than many clans who saw cooking as peasant work.

"A very fine meal indeed Kaito-san. Most impressive work."

"Ah, Kaito-san, this is wonderful!" Nobuko praised him after trying a little of everything and then taking more of the dishes she liked the best. "Such skill deserves to be recognized far and wide. I hope yours will be."

Sakura, who was sat close to Zashi, had some of her food and it was amazing! She was really enjoying it...but she was also looking for the right moment.

This was it.

She got up, giving Zashi a smile and a nod before moving towards the Ruby Champion and bowing deeply to get her attention.

Ginkarasu happily enjoyed the food as the night continued onwards.

"Hello, Doji-san. How is our finest smith doing this evening?"

She says from her seated position, giving a small nodding bow.

Wyn settles in "This all looks so good, but Yasuki'san where is the Mochi? I thought for sure you would have secured the catering gig for something like this by now"

"Hello, Doji-san. How is our finest smith doing this evening?"

She says from her seated position, giving a small nodding bow.

"Good evening Agasha-dono. I'm well thank you, I hope you are also? Ano...I'm sorry for interrupting your food..."

She paused, looking around, before taking out a box and holding it out. On top of the box was a small carving of a Dragon and the chrysanthemum.

"As a thank you for this, I would like to gift you something I made for you."

The Ruby Champion looks at the box and puts her hands up

"This is beautiful, but such a thing would be wasted on me, Doji-san. Such craftsmanship should be on display instead of kept in a dusty office."

"Ano...the box is a part of the gift, it has something inside also. I made it especially for Agasha-dono" Sakura offered again.

"I am certain whatever is inside is much to precious and beautiful for one such as myself, who is constantly covered in dirt and grime. It would only tarnish its beauty"

Sakura shook her head.

"Agasha-dono does a very very important duty, the Ruby champion will always shine. There is nobody more suitable for this than Agasha-dono, so please accept this gift!"

When she accepted, inside the box would be a pair of earrings. Ruby earrings, shaped like a dragon, with the eyes the green colour of the Dragon clan. Something she had made herself for the champion.

Jiro was sitting a little further down the table, far away from the Yakitori. He looked noticeably uncomfortable when he glanced up the table in that direction, and was mostly interested in speaking to the people across from him or to his left.

"Ran out. Parents are off in Otosan Uchi." He answers back.

“It is exquisite, Doji-San. I shall wear it with pride. Thank you.”

Haruki barely talks with the other students as he is busy organizing his staff to make sure everything runs smoothly. Even with a day of planning, the time margins are thin when making a 14 course meal for 60 people. He planned to join the others after bathing when he finally sets up the main course, a simple communal broth over a fire with various ingredients surrounding it.
"Feel free to eat as much as you want, I'll be back soon."

" Well, is running out good or bad? That means you expended all your resources, which was the goal right? But it also means you could have used more resources?"

A random Scorpion bushi made his way to the big dinner. His white hair and blue eyes didn't make it so apparent for the people around. He sat down next to Jiro with a smile. "Konbanwa, cousin." This was his last act to prank his peers.

"If I had more to begin with, could've had more. Used all my stipend to bring what I did. Almost doubled what I started with, with what got sent back to the Wall." He smiles a bit at the success.

Jiro's eyes widened slightly. "Konbanwa...I...do not think I have seen you here before, cousin. Are you from the village?" Are you, in fact, mostly Crane?
