Kiko was enjoying the brief conversation when she noticed an elderly tengu walk up behind Gin. Given what she said she quickly understood that they were together but without any specifics, she made her own assumptions.  She looked back at Gin and smiled, especially since he was blushing and didn't want to not address him.  "[color=fdc68a]That is a very nice name Ginkoruma, I'll be sure to mention you by name in one of my future songs. I'm sure I can think of a nice melody in honor of my cute new friend "[/color] She turned her focus back to metou while keeping up her smile. [color=fdc68a]"His grandmother I presume?"[/color] it was her guess given the age difference on display.  [color=fdc68a]"This land is filled with all sorts thievery and other crimes, such things happen constantly. But I will say a pattern has seemed to form, especially regarding the possibly corrupted person. My travels sends me all over, and some places have begun mobilizing over such things and banning outsiders from their territory. So depending on how specific you wish to get, I can likely provide the information.  First though I need information myself, which clan are you from or working for. I need to know who I am dealing with and it will help me adjust the pattern I've noticed by knowing what is the closest case of said thievery."[/color] with conversation taking a more serious tone she placed her guitar at her side before reaching around to pull up a black case for it.
