Yer Welcome! (Mantis Clan Island Paradise Trip)

[Kakita Kenji]

The Unicorn nods to him, slightly more formally but not so much. "It is, isn't it, Kakita-san?", he says, excited. "Have you found anything interesting while diving?"

"Some of these beautiful shells," he said.
Kenji held up some of the shells he had collected. There were some, all of them had different shapes and colors.

"Is this place not strangely beautiful to you too? I prefer the hills and forests of my home, but something about this place makes you forget the worries of home, don't you think?

[Bayushi Kaidan]

Kokyou disappeared for a moment after he crossed the torii. After everyone if assembled back on the beach, he appears once again. Now, on top of the arch itself. He shouts to them, asking, "Who do ye reckon we shall put a statue o' here?"

"HOW ABOUT ISORA?"Kaidan shouted. It was a nice shoreline.

[Kokyou]

Kokyou disappeared for a moment after he crossed the torii. After everyone if assembled back on the beach, he appears once again. Now, on top of the arch itself. He shouts to them, asking, "Who do ye reckon we shall put a statue o' here?"

"HOW ABOUT ISORA?"Kaidan shouted. It was a nice shoreline.

"Aye! That would indeed be a mighty good tribute." Kokyou performs a self-invented kata on top of the rock and... suddenly... he touches it. Moving with his hands the rock itself begins to take form.

The young man uses all his knowledge in anatomy to create a rather impressive... and curvaceously well-endowed... statue of the Fortune of the seashores and wife to Suitengu, the Fortune of the Sea itself.

"Haaarr!" Exclaims Kokyou, as he admires his piece of art.

[Otomo Nobuko]

Nobuko had thought the suggestion a laugh but upon seeing the statue come into being, she froze, agast. Was the arch not named after another fortune entirely? Would this action be seen as an insult? She squeezed her eyes shut and began quietly praying that no offense was taken.

[Kokyou]

Kokyou notices Nobuko's awe expression directed toward him and nearly grows an inch. He smirks, and bows.

[Iuchi Prashant]

The Unicorn nods to him, slightly more formally but not so much. "It is, isn't it, Kakita-san?", he says, excited. "Have you found anything interesting while diving?"

"Some of these beautiful shells," he said.
Kenji held up some of the shells he had collected. There were some, all of them had different shapes and colors.

"Is this place not strangely beautiful to you too? I prefer the hills and forests of my home, but something about this place makes you forget the worries of home, don't you think?

"Oh, they're really beautiful! I think I'll try to see what I can find too!"

He examines some of them, then stretches, looking at the water. "It is beautiful, isn't it?? It's funny though... It's very different from home in many ways, but at the same time it makes me feel.... 'free', in a similar way to that I feel in the grasslands close to home! It's a different wind, but there's... A similar feeling. I'm thankful for this opportunity, really!"

[Togashi Dao]

The young man uses all his knowledge in anatomy to create a rather impressive... and curvaceously well-endowed... statue of the Fortune of the seashores and wife to Suitengu, the Fortune of the Sea itself.

"Haaarr!" Exclaims Kokyou, as he admires his piece of art.

Dao is captivated by the artistry, and the method of its creation.

"That is quite a...generous interpretation Kokyou-sama." He hollers from the beach, giving the Mantis two big thumbs up.

[Kokyou]

"Aye!" He smiles brightly to the Togashi and then gets a piece of the rock in his hand to make a thumbs up trophy statue back to show him.

[Bayushi Kaidan]

Kaidan doesn't know how Isora looks like so he shrugged. Maybe she looked like sea foam who knows. "Great... Anyone is getting hungry?"

[Kakita Kenji]

...

"I'm glad i could make it too" he replied. Hearing Kaidan, he turned around. "The sun is getting high, i wouldn't mind some food!"

[Iuchi Prashant]

"Oh, that would be good!", Prash says answering Kaidan and Kenji and wondering what lunch would be.

He also looked at the water again - he would definitely search for a shell or two himself.

[Moto Ichiro]

Ichiro shook his head at the Mantis' antics but turned to the other Unicorn "Washamo-Prash! How have you been?"

[Iuchi Prashant]

Ichiro shook his head at the Mantis' antics but turned to the other Unicorn "Washamo-Prash! How have you been?"

"Washamo Moto! Training at home has been intense during the last few months. Perfecting our methods of dealing with the spirits, of course... But I also took a stronger routine to strengthen my body as well, after Hirosaka. Not that I expect to be on par with washamo Moto soon, of course", he says, jokingly. "But... I think I've got some results at least! What about you, washamo Moto? We haven't exchanged many letters since the Naadam ma? I expect things must have been busy and interesting after your victory!"

He then waves his hand around where they are.

"But ... this is a nice change of pace, isn't it?"
