D10 - Tiger 21st
+++Thought for the Day+++
Sorrow awaits the foolhardy.
Weather
The morning is chilly with occasional light rains sweeping over the city during the early hours of the day. The rains end by the noon, sun peeking among the white clouds. The evening is rather pleasant with winds scattering what remains of the cloud cover. As the night falls, the Hakusei still gleams on the sky, the pale orb hanging over the city like an eye of a wrathful spirit.
Kisei is waxing gibbous.
Hakusei is fully on the sky, triggering Lord Moon's Curse.
[D10 EE] Side Event: Escape from the Tomb of Iuchiban
Playing today at Once Upon A Theatre in Horogai mall...
Western Tigers
A unit of disgraced Lion samurai are given a second chance to redeem themselves as deathseekers. The unit is atypical of conventional Lion troops as they excel in tactics such as stealth, martial arts, and guerilla tactics. They are given a mission where they are dropped into a jungle world where they must find an old hidden weapons cache and destroy it. Ultimately, the movie finds its climax when they are intercepted by the enemy when they arrive at the secret bunker and must fight in close quarters in order to ensure it doesn't fall into enemy hands.

The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, the Fortunes still watch and judge us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the alleys of yesteryear. But it was never the alleys that were evil.

Re: D10 - Tiger 21st
Scorpion1: We still got spots in our team, you in or out?
Scorpion2: What's it this time? Dark cellar? A submarine?
Scorpion1: It's apparently the Tomb of the Iuchiban?
Scorpion2: That sounds pretty creepy! Do you think it'll be all religious puzzles? Locksmithing?
Scorpion2: There might be a lot of thinking puzzles...It might be a stressful way to spend an evening.
Scorpion1: You're overthinking it, in or out?
Scorpion2: Yeah, I'm in. Those spots are very hard to get!
Ronin1: Maan, I am never working for Unicorn again.
Ronin2: Why?
Ronin1: They paid me with these weird bug-bits
Ronin2: Huh. Good luck selling that stuff to anyone!
Scorpion1: That Lion Gunso who's been at the gatherings...
Scorpion2: The Akodo?
Scorpion1: Yeah. Have you seen how the Assistant to the Spider Ambassador was eyeing her at Yogo Masafuni's fête??
Scorpion2: To be honest, there was plenty to look at there...
Scorpion1: Not for his eyes, no! *smirk*
Lion1: Matsu Hide seems really smart.
Lion2: Yeah, she does.
Lion1: Maybe she's Akodo trained?
Lion2: And maybe, maybe her mom slept with an Akado?
Lion1: Why not both?
Scorpion1: So you know if that Usagi daddy is single?
Scorpion2: Well, he seems to be ready to mingle.
Scorpion1: Good.
Scorpion2: Why? Do you want to marry him?
Scorpion1: No, no.
Scorpion2: Why then?
Scorpion1: Let's say I could use some hot and heavy mingling myself!
Scavenger1: Sure are a lot of noise coming from the Dark Zone today, probably tourists?
Scavenger2: Tourists?!? It's like a whole army rolled into the Dark Zone! Better keep your heads down!
Scavenger1: Do you think it's a raid from the Magistrates?
Scavenger2: Those trucks don't look very crimson to me, might be someone looking to get a cut of the pie here.
Scavenger1: No way I'm letting them fish around in my claim!
Scavenger2: Do you really want to fight all 50 of them?
Scavenger1: You know what? I'm good...
Ronin1: You know how Jin-kun was spreading word that the Spider are paying well lately?
Ronin2: Of course I do! Been busier than I'd been in months because of that.
Ronin1: Well, might be time for a break. Apparently Kuri-san did a job for them and never even god paid.
Ronin2: You bloody serious?? What was Jin-kun thinking?
Ronin1: Does he ever think before speaking, though?
Ronin1: Hey, I heard the Firefly are looking for ronin who can give them some "details" if you know what I mean.
Ronin2: Ugh, another Heist? My back is sore from the last one!
Ronin1: Nah, not a heist, just..whatever you can, as long as you don't get hurt.
Ronin2: That's surprisingly good natured. To be fair, they did offered fealty that ronin. Maybe they're compassionate?
Ronin1: Ronin lives matter after all!
Scorpion1: I saw this Tamori girl at KFC yesterday?
Scorpion2: And?
Scorpion1: I think she was trying to commune with her meal.
Scorpion2: Uh?
Scorpion1: Yeah, she just kept staring at it.
Scorpion2: Maybe she's working on new divination technique?
Scorpion2: KFC oracle?
Lion1: Akodo Reki-san has been admirably brave. Dealing with loss is no joke.
Lion2: She has. But apparently someone thinks they need to be taken care of. *Shakes head in disdain*
Lion1: Let me guess - that Spider aide?
Lion2: None other. He seems to mistake Compassion for clinginess.
Lion1: More like leeching.
Lion2: She can certainly do without that.
Lion1: Wait... Wasn't he married to an imperial, too?
Lion2: ... she could certainly do without him.
Gebu:
The days innocent we cannot find again,
When we thought we did just fine.
We could not save the suffering ones.
We are no longer people.
Do you want to subdue and control others, to make yourself look important?
Are the flowers of your garden magnanimous?
Do they blossom as your heart does?
Are you not forgetting tears?
Are you not running from what is important?
Are you not lying to yourself?
Are you used to giving up?
If you want to cry, you should cry out.
It's fine like that, you say.
Everything is fine, surely fine.
New winds will blow tomorrow.
Did you abandon your humanity?
Did you give up on life?
Is life not wonderful?
Were you not needed before?
Do you remember where you hail from?
Do you not have your duties?
Do you not have time for us?
Have you lost your tears?

Re: D10 - Tiger 21st
"Oh, we're on? Heeellllo, everyone! Good morning!
So, sorry I had to cancel yesterday but I'm glad to be back now. I missed you all so much! Very much happy to be here!" Nari-chan smiled happily with closed eyes, her ears twitching in delight. "Oh, and thank you very much for covering for me, Nyoko-chan. You're getting pretty popular! Thank you for joining me today.""Mmhm! Yes, thank you for having me Nari-chan. Hello, all my lovelies. I wish to serve you well.
" Nyoko would blow a kiss to the audience.Nari-chan nods enthusiastically. "Yay! I'm always happy to have you around! Especially, when I'm...uhh
"Nari-chan awkwardly looks down at Nyoko's physique, looking increasingly embarrassed about it. "...the big sister...
Hah...hah..."GM-Hat
