Takashi Nekomata
D-rank
Didn't the hotsprings remind people of something? Takashi always thought that hotsprings were a holy place. The hollow in the ground reminded him of a tea cup. What if the hotsprings were the tea drinking place for giants, gods or Takashi? Obviously no one could compete with Takashi when it came to the amount of tea drunk.
Iwagakure also offered a service of hotsprings. "It would be a nice change," Takashi was thinking of booking a time to visit. He didn't do much missions or training lately, but he was so busy running the tea stand that he needed some time alone. His neck and legs were fatigued. He felt exhausted. And some of his customers even said that his tea tasted better the first time they came. It was clearly time to relax.
Takashi knew his way around the hotsprings. Maybe the customs changed from place to place, but he had visited Konoha's hotsprings for a few times. He felt confident enough to go alone. The worst that can happen - he gets bad and weird looks from the commons. Although that happens all the time because of his apparel. No one walks in a festive robe that doesn't even cover his legs. And Takashi walks in it all the time. And it's gotten dirty too since he started to live in Iwa. He hadn't had time to clean the robe. When he arrived, the robe was white and orange. Now it was grey, orange with red, yellow, green, black spots. And it smelled of tea. And not the nice kind of tea - but old and bad quality tea. Although Takashi did keep the tea leaves in his pockets, their smell could never be felt.
At the appointed time (9PM), Takashi appeared in the hotsprings reception. A young keeper showed him around, took the money and wished him a well stay. A nice young lady. Takashi easily remembered what each room was. The lady also told him where the women rooms were, so it was also easy to remember where not to go. Finding each place was really easy since the walls had no decorations and Takashi could walk around while touching the walls with one hand to locate the door handles without the fear to knock down a vase or scrape a painting. The place itself seemed empty since he didn't hear anyone or stumble upon anyone. Even better if he was here alone. It's not like he lacked any company, he was here to relax and he can get it done all by himself. It was so quiet in this place that he could hear the wood crack under his footsteps.
After locating the men's room, Takashi first got undressed (there wasn't much to take off in the first place). Then he prepared tea. It was a hot black tea with lots of sugar. After stirring it for a while with spoon, it was ready to be digested. It's purpose was to boost Takashi's metabolism to the maximum. Although it was rather paining, he tried to drink it while it was maximally hot. So he was sitting in men's room with a big cup between his hands and forcing himself to drink it as fast as possible. His robe lied next to him on a table. The room itself was a little cold, because outside it was already dark and there were no means to heat this room.
