He always assumed that she was busy or that there was work to be done; he remembered the many, many times that Tetsu would suddenly unload a bunch of last-minute orders on him, and sometimes that resulted in him missing out on a majority of the fun. She seemed entirely indifferent to it, the complete opposite of his own lament anytime he'd been so caught up in his work that it was too late to do anything meaningful. At the very least she didn't linger on the subject for too long, though he wasn't expecting her next comment. The barrage of questions caught him a little off guard, eyes widening just a touch as she even went so far as to approach him. Wait, why didn't [i]he[/i] consider asking her? Clearly that was the way to go! It was a good idea, he could wrap up what he was doing and they'd be on their way in no time! But even as the thought crossed his mind, he scratched the back of his head with a small frown on his face. [color=firebrick]"Um, no, that wasn't why, but--well, actually, I would like to go with you. If you'll have me, of course,"[/color] He dropped his hand as he spoke, deciding he would get that out of the way. [color=firebrick]"We can go see everyone's hard work, get something to eat, enjoy the shows that get put on, and of course the main attraction."[/color] He paused for a moment. [color=firebrick]"...But I mean, even if I wasn't around, there's nothing wrong with going on your own, too. I've had to do it a few times myself. You're still a part of the village, and that means you get to have as much fun as everyone else, too, you know."[/color] [/indent][sub][right][@Asura][/right][/sub]
