[D1 MM] Back "Home"

Some say that coming to Furihumu island is a way to start over. Where better to start than where one sleeps?

"No, I am just the yojimbo and a personal assistant to Hiruka-sama. My authority derives more from my Imperial standing than from my position."

"There is one, I'm just not part of the chain of command. In the same way that a quartermaster or advisor would not be in the chain of command." she explains.

"I see, well I guess I better report to...someone today; though I'm not sure who." he sipped his water. "So where should I meet you for this little diving expedition tomorrow, the beach or cove or do you have a secret spot you don't want everyone to see? I figure it would be easier to meet you there since I have no idea what will be required of me tomorrow so I will leave the time up to you."

"Cove is one of the best places for oysters if I'm remembering correctly. I know they dive out there. Diving by the docks might get you hooked by the fishermen on the shore," she says with a smirk. "Not a pleasant experience."

"Good tip, the cove it is then. I wonder how long i can hold my breath for, I imagine the clams are pretty deep. Maybe i should just go to bed now so tomorrow comes sooner. Oh, I wonder if there are any good spots for cliff diving, that could be fun."

"I'm not sure about that. Not on the beach or cove, certainly, but maybe elsewhere on the island," Akari replies, not actually knowing if there are any cliffs to dive from here.

"As for holding your breath, I understand that the people that do it well can hold their breath for several minutes. Not something I can do, certainly."

"It's not something I'm looking to actually get good at myself. I don't mind relaxing and enjoying the water, but I'm really more of a land based samurai," she replied with a chuckle.

"I just want to make sure I can swim home if I have too, shouldn't be hard." he laughed. "Not that I plan on farming the whole sea bed tomorrow, i wouldn't want to be rude and ignore you the whole time. Plus proper tanning takes days."

"Well, you don't have to worry about ignoring me. I am perfectly capable of entertaining myself if you come to find the oysters and clams more to your interests," she replied with a smirk. "My feelings would not be too hurt."

"Fish can ease my hunger but a good companion is much more fulfilling." he said returning her smirk. "I would not be in such a hurry to get there if it was just for the pearls, I like to know the people who will be watching my back as well as possible before we plunge into the bush."

"Well, I will aspire to inspire confidence. Just hope you don't expect me to help you if you're drowning. I enjoy swimming... I'm not good at it," she states, with levity in her tone, clearly not suggesting that she'd let him drown on purpose.

"Can you imagine that, getting all the way here only to drown the first time I get in the water? Surely the Fortunes wouldn't be that cruel to me, I would be embarrassed for lifetimes."

"I can imagine it. It happened. One of the other explorers we arrived with drown just 2 days after we got here," she says. "So, not a farfetched fate. Of course, he also was terrible at swimming and was drunk, but it's not an unheard of occurrence."

This had a sobering effect on Kenzo. "My apologies, I shouldn't make light of it. As I said I am a fairly strong swimmer and I would be happy to aid you in strengthening your technique should you ever wish. It really is a good skill to have considering where we are." he ate some more of his food and considered his words and actions may be a bit too casual.

"Don't worry about it. It's this island. It has taken people, it will do so again I imagine," she says with a smile. "So may as well enjoy our time here in case it takes one of us next. Besides, we all eventually return to the wheel."

"Indeed we will, though there are so many more things I want to experience this time around. Have you travelled much before this? I know the Miya are famed for their Heralds but you are an explorer and yojimbo, that sounds complicated."

"The exploration stuff is secondary that I picked up working with Hiruka-sama. I am primarily a bushi and yojimbo. And I haven't traveled too much. Only since leaving my last duty as a house guard at the estates of the Seppun daimyo."

He whistled at that. "That's a heck of a posting, which do you prefer that or being here?"
