- I'd really like for this thread to be something for Kenjiro to meet other ninja and set up relationships to play off later. Also, I apologize in advance for any mangling of this site's non-general roleplay etiquette.
Unfolding her legs, she placed a big toe into the water. It felt nice enough. She dipped her feet into the water, splashing around. She leaned onto her knees, focusing on the sounds of the water rippling around the rocks. Ah. Spring was arriving. She closed her eyes, picturing all the pretty flowers and the coming festivities. She would have to start figuring out something to do with her hair. Then, with her hot blood, she’d have to figure out ways to stay cool...
Just then, a beautiful, resonating honk came through the air. Kenjiro opened her eyes in a hurry, taken off guard. She looked around. Another honk came and she quickly registered that it was from above. She grinned as she looked up, a gasp escaping her lips. ”Yeah!” It was that time of year, again, wasn’t it?
It was a flock of trumpeter swans. Kumogakure’s fields supplied the swans with food via agricultural vegetation waste, but the mating pairs liked the abundant small prey around the water. Needless to say, as they lighted on the water, Kenjiro was enraptured.
”Wow!” she exclaimed, forcing herself to choke the yell down into an awed whisper. They weren’t exactly far from her. She looked into the water, looking for particularly large fish. Seeing none, she took off her outer shirt and her skirt. She considered her shiny new hitai-ate; she decided take it from her mane of hair and tie it around her neck for safety.She hopped into the water, startling the swans at first but after a minute they relaxed. Some of them must have recalled her as the weird purple thing that hung out with them.
She chuckled, treading water among the pristine white bodies. Gosh, she loved spring.
