Re: Chapter 7 - Something About Steel
Pausing only a moment, Reiko returns his bow, not quite meeting his depth. She would rather talk, it seems. "A prudent and wise philosophy," she nods at his feather imagery. He is very well-spoken, something she's been told to expect. Still, it's a pleasant surprise, though perhaps his words a bit knotted up in the worries of necessary humility.
She looks up as Kedo references a Daidoji, presumably still in the baths, soon to exit. "I wish not to trouble anyone; if I have come at a bad time, I can arrange to speak with you elsewhere, later, at your convenience. I did not even ask if you had other business, and in that I am remiss. My apologies." There is genuine remorse in her face, and perhaps a bit of self-censure.
Like Kedo says--you're doing just fine, Michio. :) I usually play Crab because I can never get a proper handle on courtesy, so this is a challenge for me, too!
Edit to fix fiddly grammary errors.
