(D5, LE) Another Time for Correspondence (closed)

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"You are truly making things look better." He nods with his head. "I could ask her if that's a possibility. Thanks for lending me your help, Kenji-kun."
He takes more of his tea.
"I don't have many friends I can talk how I feel to."

[Kakita Kenji]

"It''s the same for me, Aiichiro-kun, I hold you in high regard." he answered.

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"I find myself... I don't know. Thinking ill of everyone so often."

[Kakita Kenji]

"How come?" he inquired further.

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"I don't like... What didn't you understand about that?"

[Kakita Kenji]

"Oh, I just wanted to understand exactly what was bothering you. I understood from before that you are not a friend of the,... dishonorable and foolish. To be careful of others is... normal."

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"Guess it would be so." He says, drinking more tea. "I missed your company. Crane lands are very windy. I guess wind toys are popular over here?"

[Kakita Kenji]

"I will always have an open heart for you, my friend"

Did he said something wrong? he thought. Anyway no chance to inquire further if the topic is changed.

"Kites and chimes are very popular,... oh! And Windmills! The Small ones they make with paper, i owned one as a kid,... my older brother gifted it to me when i was very young.I remember running around in the streets to get the wings to spin,.. eventually i broke it later,.. it is still in my possession, however, one of the wings is torn off and the stick has a crack,..." Kenji's gaze wandered as he recalled this memory

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"Those are very simple. I could make one although I don't know much about origami." He replies. "In the days of east wind, all windows were locked. Not out of danger, it is safe, the stench is just unbearable. But we were not forbidden to open the windows, so sometimes we would cover our noses with the collar of our kimono or even the kimono and open it to throw... Not sure if you are familiar with it, but the toys that float in the air. Like a kite, but the fun is letting them go and watch them fall."

[Kakita Kenji]

"Oh!! You mean a Paper Swallow! These are fun to make, when i was a small boy i competed with my sisters who could make them fly the farthest!" Kenji smiled. " But why do you lock the Windows on days of the east wind? Isn't the Wall to the South?"

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

He blinks to Kenji a few times. "The Wall is to the west of the empire. To the south there is the Sea of Shadows. The wall blocks the wind to our windows, but the stench still falls over as the wind passes through the top."

(west*, bah with writing actions when you just woke up)

[Kakita Kenji]

"Really? The Old maps my Sensei showed me had the Wall more to the South"

---
OOC: Welp fucked that up, didn't had the map a 100% right in my mind , gonna blame it on old maps

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"...It's to the west of the crab. South of the Kakita lands." He explains like Kenji was one of those people who thought India was in the middle east.

[Kakita Kenji]

"ohhh, i really need to ask Wyn-san if he has an up to date map of the empire" he said, blushing a bit a little out of embarrassment.

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"I must comment as well that all our windows are in the empire side.'

[Kakita Kenji]

"That's understandable, i can't imagaine the,... scent the Wind carries from the Shadwolands"

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"It's not for that reason. It's because a Wall with holes is useless
Even archery holes talking about our enemy."

[Kakita Kenji]

"Oh we're talking shiro Kaiu again, i thought about the building outside of it, but please explain to me why the wall doesn't have archery holes?"

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

"Oni that can become a gelatinous form and enter through them." He drinks more tea. "Also because firing from the top of the wall alongside the engines is more effective."

[Kakita Kenji]

Kenji blinked a few time. "They become what?"
He shook his head. Oni are scary.
