--------------------
@ Naohiko:
Both Ruri's and Utamaru's gaze shift slightly to past Naohiko, perhaps to a specific wall scroll, but they say nothing and return to look at the one he picked out instead.
Naohiko waits outside without incident, save for a rather loud exclamation from Ruri at one point. Soon, she would emerge, and hand you the scroll, her face laden with anger.
"Okay, Naohiko-san, I'm going to say this once. Nothing happens to this scroll. You are not keeping it, you are not losing it, you are not even opening it to look at it, understand?" She grits her teeth and looks over her shoulder at the shop. "Apparently, some Crane need to be taught the definition of the word 'discount'." She would immediately begin storming off, in any direction that was not here.
Item get!
--------------------
@ Kaichiyo:
"H... uh..." Kioko would respond, looking down at Setsuna, cradled and cuddled in her arms. The dog would lick Kioko's chin twice and then pant happily while gazing up at her. "I'll have to ask Isei-san about that....."
"So, Kaichiyo-san, is there anything the Himura are looking forward to during Court?" she would ask after a few moments of silence. "I understand that Winter Court isn't as big of a deal in the Colonies, which is why I assume there's three delegates from a Minor Clan. We usually have so few representatives from Minor Clans; we don't always get one from each, and it was unusual in of itself to see two Sparrow, but I get the impression that they are a package deal. But still... three Kraken?" She didn't seem to be carrying any disrespectful intent with the question; you get the sense that she's asking you as an equal.

--------------------
@ Naohiko:
Without an Awareness roll to reflect on the reasons, any reason for her anger will have to remain speculation. That, or just outright asking her.
She didn't seem to have any set direction on where she went, nor any certain goal, she was more interested, it seems, in putting distance between her and the scroll dealer than anything. As such, the best you can scrounge together is a free raise!
--------------------
@ Kaichiyo:
"Well, yes, I get that. I normally get a retinue of Iron Warriors myself, but their task is generally to make sure I don't get any privacy whatsoever. Several other important delegates here left for the scavenger hunt with their yojimbo as their partner. I get the impression that your companions have a bit more leeway than usual?"
She would smile at you. "I think that's more of a testament that you can take care of yourself, personally." Then she would loose a dejected sigh. "It's not like mother trusts me with that level of confidence..."
A guard would approach suddenly, and bow respectfully. "Excuse me, princess..." Noting you, he would awkwardly bow again. "Ah, that is, Doji-sama. A third team has returned, and the scouts are reporting a fourth team is on their way too."
"Ah, thank you. Have the scouts begin to position themselves to recall the teams," Kioko would command the guard, who would bow and retreat out of the chamber. "It seems we may have to wrap this up, depending on how the teams did," she would explain to you.

--------------------
@ Gendo:
Kiyo would nod sagely. "That's wise. You should definitely let... wha, ME?!" she would exclaim suddenly, gesturing at herself with one finger. She would look back and forth between Gendo and the lady Mantis, apparently at an immediate loss for words.
The Mantis woman would press the fingers of her right hand against her temple and cheek, as if in frustration. "You two are a bit of a mess, aren't ye?" she would comment. "Look, just... can you two get out of my way? So I can get back to the party?"
"Oh! I'm so sorry!" Kiyo would exclaim, looking to and fro for a moment before deciding to sidle out along the edge of the doorway.
The Mantis woman would squeeze in, and immediately address her compatriots. "I have good news, and I have bad news!"
"What's the good news?" one henchman would ask.
"The deal went through, so we're drowning in Koku!" she would announce. All four would cheer.
"And what's the bad news???" another would ask her.
"You thrice-damned landlubbers started without me!" she would yell accusingly. Despite this, they would all cheer again, and she would proudly march to join their table.
Kiyo would look at you nervously, then hesitantly approach the group just as the sake was beginning to be poured. "Umm... excuse me..." she would interrupt meekly. When ignored at first, she would repeat herself.
"Ehh? What's that, girly?" asked the lady Mantis. "Didya want to join us? Room for one more!" She looked over at you and sneered slightly. "I don't blame you, looking at your company." Looking back to Kiyo, she would add "You're in luck. These lunkheads here can show you a good time. They're all unmarried, y'know! Ain't that right, boys?!" She would smack one on the shoulder and they would all guffaw loudly in unison, before taking a drink each.
"N-no... it's just... mumble mumble mumble" she would say, reddening and looking at the floor.
"Whaaaaat was that?" the lady Mantis would ask, cupping a hand to her ear and turning her head.
"I... I said... mumble mumble mumble"
"Still can't hear you, girly! Tell us, what's on your mind!" the lady Mantis would say, leaning hear ear closer.
"I SAID YOU'RE AN INSENSITIVE OLD COW!!!" Kiyo shouted angrily, fists balled in front of her, her eyes clenched tight. She would pant a couple times, before going "EEP!" and covering her mouth in shock, when she realized the entire room had gone dead silent.
"What... did you... just say to me?" the Mantis woman would growl, eyes narrowed, as she began to stand, along with the others.
Gendo! You have a chance to react, of course.
--------------------
@ Naohiko:
"....." Ruri would slow, then stop, remaining silent for a few moments longer.
"Nine koku, two bu, and a trinket of sentimental value from my mother." Lowering her head, she would mutter, "At least he let me keep the zeni coins..."
She would turn in place, facing Naohiko. Her eyes would begin to shine with ethereal light, her winter kimono and her hair beginning to rise up as the air became thick with energy around her. You could practically hear electricity crackle in this winter air. "I will repeat myself only once. DO NOT LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO THAT SCROLL. If you do, I will see to it personally that everyone you hold dear is-
All at once, in the blink of an eye, the storm would calm and she would turn her head, eyebrows raised as if listening to something. "Oh! It seems Kaichiyo-san has finished. I'm kind of surprised, actually, considering her company. Hurry, Naohiko-san, we have no time to waste!" She didn't answer his question, instead choosing to encourage him to pick up the pace, opting not to spend time deliberating.
--------------------
@ Kaichiyo:
"That sounds delightful," Kioko would respond. "On both fronts. I look forward to such times, Kaichiyo-san."
Kaichiyo, are you using this as an opportunity to depart? If so, back to your room, or out in a public area to await the return of your companions? If not, then disregard.
