The Day of Thunder

She chuckled. "I will have to confirm that with Shiba-sama, but I appreciate it."

Crossing her arms, she added, "Do you have any idea what you will do if you are free from 'odd jobs' then? Other talents you are keeping to yourself?"

"I honestly do not know... I have been pondering that these last few days." Yukara sighed, and then gazed out, even looking at the river. "I would like to travel - but I think I may be passing on my techniques for the Bat - to help defend their lands against monsters. I hope in time to become better...

"Yes, assuming as much. Best not to leave things too long - people can come to their own conclusions, when left without answers." She knew that all too well. "When this is over, and we return home, do you suppose you will keep being in Beiden Pass, or will you go to do... Imperial things... in the p...

Hmm ok. So she'll potentially go again before Aoyama. We'll see if she needs to keep pokin or if she can go grab the husband. I'm guessing even if we get her out, we have to fight her. I might be wrong though - there is no saving her via the Kiho, regardless. The best Yukara can do give her a moment...

I'm wondering if I should even try. I feel Makime would be more like "are they so weak willed they need coddling to save their own future?"

Do part 1 and 2, and then fail part 3 as hard as possible?

"I could ask for no more." Yukara offered a formal bow at the waist, jade talons tucking away into her sleeves with remarkable ease. "I do not wish to keep you up late, Nanzi-sama. If anything changes here, I will inform you, and if there is anything I can do, you need only ask." She seemed prepared...

Does the init boost via void only last 1 round? For some reason thought it was permanent.

Oh well. Been a while since I messed with it.

Yukara had changed her weapon to accommodate a single arm, and then days later, was now changing herself back to accommodate having 2 arms again. It was perhaps the strangest twist of her tale thus far, but she was not going to allow it to ruin her efficacy, and so she took to the garden to step thr...

I'm awareness 4 atm(thanks void dragon, what a champ), but if my disads apply I'm also -10 on my rolls.

Apparently a meeting was planned for the evening, and so Yukara had opted to get cleaned up. She was... whole... again, and so she had washed and then moved into the bath with a comfy sigh. Ah... this was nice. Weird, but nice. It was hard to avoid feeling drowsy in the hot water, and so she floated...

It may be worth pushing for duels to not be the only outcome then, instead of focusing on a school. The legal system is still very fresh. Adding an element of review and saving duels for matters of honor and such may be an option still. Codifying the difference between 'first blood' and 'to the deat...

If I get social penalties for my disads, I feel like I would apply negative value.

As she nodded and pulled her hair back from her face, for a moment he could've sworn her fingers ended in pure jade claws.

Then it was gone, and he was not entirely sure what he had seen.

Following him, she inquired, "So you spoke with Shiba-sama, and she has accepted your interest, I hope?"

The claws and chi were not gentle as they did their work - Aoyama would feel excruciating agony as she was torn back to reality, to the waking realm. This was mercy, but it was not kindness. "A cat is free in all realms, monster!" Yukara spat back, exerting her will and focus to try and keep from be...

"I think there is wisdom in that." She picked at the strings thoughtfully, starting to get a sequence of notes, albeit clumsily. "Do not allow the perfect to be the enemy of the good. That is a saying of my sensei, for those days when my efforts were not up to my own unreasonable standards." Finally...

"Good." She beamed. "I still expect you to show me Beiden Pass, for one thing." Wiping the lingering tears away, she continued, "I have been having a most unexpected week. An arm gone and returned, a demon slain, finding out about flirting and heartache. I could almost use a rest - and will be glad ...

It's in a terrible hand and somehow, somehow actually reads as if it's in the accent he speaks, but Akutou's message gets to the people.

Does my disturbing countenance and/or Yokel disad apply?

She seemed surprised, and a bit embarassed, but she did not push him away. She offered a one armed hug, the other pinned by his motion, and for a moment her fingers tapping on his back seemed unusually... sharp... and then the sensation was gone. Flushing, she pulled away after a moment, and added, ...
