[D1 EE open] Dinner at the camp

[Hida Yoshiko]

The girl pursed her lips. "At least we can try, neh? With observation we learn and patterns can lead to making friends right." The Hida smiled at the Utaku.

[Utaku Mukai]

The girl pursed her lips. "At least we can try, neh? With observation we learn and patterns can lead to making friends right." The Hida smiled at the Utaku.

The Unicorn seems to ponder for a moment before nodding, "I can't say I ever thought of it in those terms but, yes, that makes sense."

[Hida Yoshiko]

Yay! She finished her rice. "It is something I learned in tactics drills: observe and learn the patters then understand when to strike. I doubt it would be different for the animals." The Hida shrugged.

[Utaku Mukai]

Yay! She finished her rice. "It is something I learned in tactics drills: observe and learn the patters then understand when to strike. I doubt it would be different for the animals." The Hida shrugged.

"No it definitely works for them. Especially if you understand their instincts and needs. What area they prefer to den, what food they hunt, what trails they lead to and from water."

[Hida Yoshiko]

"Hai..." She takes a mental note that will probably be forgotten at some point this evening. "Ah..." She remembered something. "I am Yoshiko."

[Utaku Mukai]

"Hai..." She takes a mental note that will probably be forgotten at some point this evening. "Ah..." She remembered something. "I am Yoshiko."

Mukai had, in turn, been oblivious to the fact that it hadn't come up previously until addressed, "Oh, right, nice to meet you proper."

[Hida Yoshiko]

Mental sad face pout. Her face showed a smile though. "Can you teach me these strategies of hunting?"

[Utaku Mukai]

Mental sad face pout. Her face showed a smile though. "Can you teach me these strategies of hunting?"

"Not sure how good I am at teaching but I'm willing to try. Once we get a further from civilization it'll be easier."

[Hida Yoshiko]

Yay The Hida kept her friendly smile. "I hope I am a quick learner because I am willing to learn."

[Utaku Mukai]

Yay The Hida kept her friendly smile. "I hope I am a quick learner because I am willing to learn."

"It may take a few tries but, if so, that's probably not your fault. They've been training all their lives with death as the alternative so they have the headstart."

[Hida Yoshiko]

Yoshiko nodded. "Right right..." She continued to make mental note that would vanish at some point. "So patience..."

[Utaku Mukai]

Yoshiko nodded. "Right right..." She continued to make mental note that would vanish at some point. "So patience..."

Mukai nods, "Always a valuable trait... even if I can't always claim to have it."

[Hida Yoshiko]

"Think I can be patient." She nodded. "Curiosity can also be a perk." The Hida tilted her head. "Like um... what is your name?" The large woman chuckled playfully.

[Utaku Mukai]

"Think I can be patient." She nodded. "Curiosity can also be a perk." The Hida tilted her head. "Like um... what is your name?" The large woman chuckled playfully.

"Oh... um... sorry. I'm Mukai, Utaku Mukai." She was so accustomed to her own social faux-pas that it never occurred to her that, for once, it might not be her memory at fault.

[Hida Yoshiko]

"It is an honor to meet you, Mukai san." Yoshiko gave a seated bow.

[Utaku Mukai]

"It is an honor to meet you, Mukai san." Yoshiko gave a seated bow.

Oh, I guess she wants to use personal names?

Mukai finally catches on, though still oblivious to the Hida's earlier disappointment, and returns the bow, "You too, Yoshiko-san."

[Hida Yoshiko]

Yay Yoshiko smiled. "In which kaisha are you marching with?"

[Utaku Mukai]

Yay Yoshiko smiled. "In which kaisha are you marching with?"

"I ride with the Second. Yourself?"

[Hida Yoshiko]

"I march with the 4th." The girl sighed. "I hope our name is not a bad omen."

[Utaku Mukai]

"I march with the 4th." The girl sighed. "I hope our name is not a bad omen."

The Unicorn sucks air through her teeth and nods. She wasn't the superstitious sort but still recognized the concern, "I mean all legions have them so it can't be too ill omened. Otherwise they'd probably skip from third to fifth."
