Wedding at Fire Shrimp Village an L5R PbP

Daichi had finished morning workout and cleansing, he figured it would be nice to head to the beach, possibly watch the ships depart.

The big man stepped out onto the beach and stretched letting out a big breath and looking out over the beach with a small smile on his face.

He will see Yuuwaku, dressed for travel but with her forehead jewel shining in the morning sun, looking out upon the water, shivering slightly. But the weather is warm, and her face is pensive as she stares into the waves.

The big Crab pulls up next to her his deep voice breaking whatever pensive silence surrounded the Crane beauty "Im a little late for our first meeting but here we are Yuuwaku-sama." He said, his grin still in place his voice a touch lower than normal "You planning to leave today?"

Yuuwaku starts slightly, having been quite enwrapped in her thoughts, and she bows to Daichi.

"I must, of course," she says, "but I am still happy to see you...Daichi-san. I did so enjoy our last encounter, after all."

He grinned to the reaction "as did I, certainly something to think about when the night becomes cold and lonely." He said holding his smile "So what is next for you any other adventures planned for the beautiful dancer?"

She smiles right back at him.

"I'll be heading home, at least for now," she replies. "The Academy will want to know what happened, of course; your sister-in-law is one of their more notable students. And I'll probably study a bit more; I don't think I'm quite ready to advance yet, but I'm hopeful."

She sighs. "I will miss this place, though."

She looks up at him again. "I might ask you, as well, what is next for you?"

He cocked his head a bit "did our little village leave an impression on you Yuuwaku-sama? Or is it the people you're leaving behind that will be missed?" He asked curiously and then shrugged "well I am set to be married soon, I suspect I will remain here for a time. It all depends on what my mother says." He chuckled "should we cross paths again I will likely be clad in emerald rather than blue."

"It did, indeed; it's a pleasant place, made all the more so by its people," Yuuwaku replies. "And congratulations on the coming marriage. Who is the lucky woman? And will I be invited?"

Her voice rings with excitement. Weddings offer so much opportunity for fun, after all.

Daichi chuckled "can't say i ever thought of this place as overly memorable but I suppose this visit has been more eventful than most and not only because of you Yuuwaku-sama." He said with a wink

"As for my intended she is an exotically beautiful Mantis ship captain named Yoritomo Xung-ji. Apparently she petitioned my mother sometime ago and the wedding will be relatively soon. As for your invitation, I suppose I could consider you a friend." Daichi said with a grin.

"Well, I would hope so, Daichi-san," Yuuwaku replies. "We seemed to get along well enough before, if memory serves.

"But I wonder how life on the seas will suit you," she adds, and her lips quirk teasingly, "unless you mean to be a good little wife on the islands."

"Yes I would say quite well indeed, if you didn't seem ready to head out already I'd see if you wanted one for the road." He said grinning with his eyes sparkling in amusement.

To her second inquiry he laughed and then shrugged "We will see i would be a terrible homemaker, im certain id get up to all sorts of trouble if given too much time on my hands. No ill learn to enjoy the sea, or at least tolerate it."

"I doubt you'll have trouble with the pounding waves," she replies, laughing. "But if you think we have place and time," she adds, "it might be nice to have something to remember."

He laughed in return "pounding I can handle just fine indeed!" He replied heartily.

With her words a hungry light came to his eyes which scanned her body closely "Time I have in abundance for you Yuuwaku-chan, privacy is easy to find." He said with a slight growl in his voice.

"Oh?" Yuuwaku says. "So you didn't get enough last time, then?" She raises an eyebrow. "Who would think that you'd have to work so hard against someone so small as me?" she teases. "Or is it that you're looking for a lesson?"

He grinned back at her "enough isn't a term I know well, something i thought you would have figured out by now. And size isn't everything, though it can help depending on the activity."

"You don't know the half of it, big boy," Yuuwaku replies. "But you're not wrong, certainly." She winks.

"If memory serves you were struggling by about half of it." He said with a teasing laugh as he threw the wink back to her.

"Struggling? Me?" Yuuwaku asks, mock-incredulously. "My dear Hida-san, that was no such thing! I engage myself in what I do, the more so when I am having as good a time as that."

Daichi let out a boisterous laugh at her respons "engaging indeed!" He said and laughed a little more "ahh I think I'll miss you Yuuwaku-san." He said with a broad smile

Yuuwaku inclines her head in a shallow bow.

"I'm glad that I'll be missed," she says. "Much better to be missed than to have people glad I'm gone, after all."

Daichi's smile persisted as he stepped to the side and held out his arm toward the village proper "Shall we head back and see if we can give you some pleasant thoughts to keep while you travel back home?"

Yuuwaku nods and takes the invitation.

"I should be delighted to enjoy your hospitality one more time, Hida-san," she says, "and to offer you a memory of warmth for when you are on the cold seas."

"Pleasant thoughts are always valuable to have on hand." He chuckled a little "I just hope your travel doesn't involve much walking."

"Walking is good for the legs," Yuuwaku replies. "It helps tone the thighs, the hips."

Hers roll as she says it, emphasizing them.

"Yes but after im through im sure your hips will be grateful for a break." He said as his eyes drifted to the emphasized region "by Hida i will miss the mastery you have with yours though."
