Yuudai listened to Lord Shima before she flexed one more time to let go of Jiang's head and allow him to try and correct himself, though she only meant it in a bullying way it seemed that The Dog had yet to get use to her brand of affection. To be fair he had only been there a little while compared to her. Looking back over her shoulder to the words of Tarou of the Sasaki Clan she gave a dismissive wave, she was sure that he would not break so easily... maybe. 

Now having the time to do so she could not help but look at the mix matched group that they had gathered here, some faces she knew and others she was thankful were here though she had to admit that she was unsure of one of their number. Her gaze landed on the monk who seemed different and yet she could not help but feel a certain peace even when simply looking at the man, like looking at a calm lake.

Yuu waited until Lord Shima had finished with the others before she started to make her way over to him, making sure to pass by Metou on her way just to give a small comment to what she said. Her form towering above both the old crow and tiny half oni Gin [i][color=ed145b][b]"Glad to hear you can last a little longer"[/b][/color][/i] It would be troublesome if Yuu had to carry her the rest of the way, and a small smirk broke across her lip at the thought of that.

After reaching Lord Shima she looked down to him for a moment before lowering herself so she was eye level; though she was not one for formality Lord Shima had her fullest respect. Over the years she had worked here she had only felt more welcomed within her own home while Shima was around. Yuu had learned much from this man in the ways of the youkai as he had learned from what she could share of her mothers teachings, something she hoped they shared. Shima was more than a clan to her or a simple job, it was a second home. 

[color=ed145b][i][b]"Tenzin..."[/b][/i][/color] She spoke softly so only she and Lord Shima could likely hear but not one to be so formal she used the lords real name, which was a show of respect in her own way.[color=ed145b][i][b] "I-, We will return with the relics I can promise you this, I do dislike seeing you so worried my lord. I do hope that everyone wont fall apart while I am gone"[/b][/i][/color] She was trying to cheer the man up a little, he was a true leader to not show it but in the end he was still human and she understood. They could not talk like this for long as things had to continue but if these were to be her final words to the lord in confidence then she would rather take the chance now.
