1 [EP] Chiaki and Aka visit the festival! Sun Aug 25, 2019 8:10 pm
Chiaki
A-rank
It was the middle of a rainy day when they arrived, the day before the festival, actually, and Chiaki had bought one of the raincoats that the passing salesperson told her to get, seeing the perpetual rain clouds on the horizon, she had ducked under it for cover. She couldn't imagine that the festival would take place in such a dim, dreary, and destitute place. Honestly? She didn't want to come to the festival to celebrate much of anything after what had happened in Kumogakure.
What she did want to do, however, was she wanted to get away with Akaneya, and she wanted to do something fun. It didn't look fun, going into those rain clouds, though. Anything but. She still wanted to go, and as they neared the city, she looked over at Aka, smiling, and reiterating herself, for what must have been the third time.
"This'll be fun, I guarantee it. Now, I know that you probably are going to fuss over it being too rainy, or too gloomy, but cheer up, it'll get better, I promise. There is a festival that goes on every year and I thought that you would like to go and have some fun."
She nodded, "Not only that, but with the travelling, and the hokage going on a rampage, and all of that mess, it will be nice to unwind and not do anything with the whole shinobi world for a while. Don't you think?" Looking from Aka, to the horizon, she frowned a bit, and thought about what she would say next, "I ah, I guess it isn't a great look right now, but I think that it'll be fun to go around and at least have fun at the festival. You know, look in and out of the shops, and perhaps get to see what their food tastes like. The flyer."
She handed the flyer over to Aka, "Says that there will be games, food, dancing, operas, shows, and that there is a place where you can swim, go into hot springs, and even a tunnel system where we could get lost together." A surreptitious smile crept its way onto her face as she blushed a bit.
Now one, thing that she had to make clear, was that she had dragged Aka along, not against her will, but because it would be a good bonding experience. The second thing that she wanted to get through to the woman beside her was, she was not going to take no for an answer, and if she had to literally drag her to the city she would. Not that she had to at this point, but she had some rope in her bag that would come in handy, should she have to resort to such. Not only this, but she had an idea as to what she would do in order to drag Aka to the city. She was going to have a good time, and like it... damn it.
