Hiro smiled towards Akito's wonder to the palace. Akito's amazement was adorable, making him remember the times of his younger years. He remembered being younger and enjoying exploration around the palace to see if he could find any new art made or anything else that he had never seen before. Hiro paused over and over again to point out a room here and there, even letting the shorter male walk in to examine it.

Passing by a more open area, when Hiro opened the door, instead of a room it was the entrance to a closed in garden. "Here's one of the many, many gardens we have. This one is one of our more simplistic ones since the palace surrounds it. On the outside there are plenty more. I prefer the ones outside the palace because of the space." There was a stone pathway to follow and Hiro smiled letting Akito take the lead and venture forward, despite the path being designed so two people could walk side by side. 

This particular garden had little in terms of flowers. It was more of greenery with small trees and ponds around. It was spacious, but still closed in, hence why Hiro thought it was small. As Akito marveled and explored, Hiro sat on a bench and watched him. "So, Akito, is there anything you want to tell me about yourself? Besides you being some war hero?" The last part was said with a slight distaste, though it wasn't too rude. Hiro figured he'd let his betrothed speak for himself instead of hounding him with a thousand questions. The poor guy would probably have a heart attack or something. "You can also ask me questions if you want. By the way, be careful by the ponds, they're kind of slippery."
