The Day of Thunder

"And you know how stubborn I can be, 'sensei'. Whether it's putting up with your cooking or helping you with things even when you don't ask. Or calling you Hisomu-sama. I'm not going to grow out of that just because I'm past my gempukku you know." Ohta fished through her pack and got out an old look...

One of his companions soon returned, bundled up in her cloak and face covered by a scarf, even though it really wasn't that cold. Spying the fire, Ohta nodded and walked over, sitting down herself and putting her heavy bag on her lap before uncovering her face, "A wonderful idea, Hisomu-sama."

How many statuettes has he made now? 50?

Ohta figured Chouri couldn't be any younger than herself... or maybe much younger than the monk himself, really. She briefly wondered to herself if Kinboshi here wasn't the oldest amongst the group of them; Her Ki-Rin mother had used the old horse when Riding to the tournament, after she was born. W...

The garb of a monk. Ohta glanced over but said nothing in greeting really, just giving a slight incline of her head. One thing she HAD expected coming here was monks. And she'd seen one or two on the road here. The fact there was another was not unexpected. "Barely tea sounds WONDERFUL actually. At ...

Ohta got off her horse and gingerly lowered herself to the path; Even though the horse was shoter than Xiaochen's, it still looked tall next to the diminutive Spider woman as she took its reins. "A village head, out here to meet us? I am even luckier than I already thought. Stables and a history les...

"Oh, good morning too you as well, Ki-Rin-san. Nice to see another rider on the... roads, even in the conditions things are in." The mud and dampness really was something. Turning her head, Ohta looked at Chouri, "And based on what you were talking about, you must be a local." Now close enough and s...

My work here is done!

Hello again.

...the prequels provide.

I definitely desire for there to be a "Humor" section of the Imperial Archives. Would make Rokugan so much more of a chill place.

"Did you hear? Yes, that's right, the princess. Right between the ears! Definitely claw marks, not the mark of a lover."

Helps that they're an auteur vision from Lucas, rather than some committee led Star Wars Story. Auteur works will always be more memeable because they have that mix of genius and risk taking.
