He would nod his head. "Thank you, Sumi-san. As for your question... well, the Lion Clan is very militaristic. We train, eat, sleep, and die for Rokugan and the Emperor. It is a sad fact of life that dangers looms everywhere, and sometimes, violence is necessary. The Phoenix are pacifists, and instead embrace knowledge. Basically, you can say we're Rokugan's brains and brawns! However, our Clan's differences should not keep us away from each other. We should be friends with one another, am I right? All these Wars and battles do nothing for Rokugan, only weaken and taint it. What about you? If you don't mind me asking, that is. Why do you think our clans differ from one another? I would love to see your point of view."
He would then take a sip, and sigh.

"Simpler times, indeed. However, we do not have the luxury of being born in such times. I prefer to keep my eyes on the future, not the past." The small woman would roll her cup in her hands, watching the liquid moving about, as she thought about Seichiro's question.
"My husband," she would say, unexpectedly. "We often don't get along, and ours was an arranged marriage of convenience. Still... he tries to be good to me. He really does, despite me being so high maintenance..."

"If we do not learn from the past, we are doomed to repeat it.By looking at the past, we can better shape our future." He would take a sip of his tea, then put it on the table. "This is good Tea." He would quickly pour himself another cup, then lift it up with both hands. "Sumi-san, I hope you can forgive me for being so... forward, but if your husband is trying to be nice to you... perhaps you should repay that kindness. While true, it was arranged, and perhaps there is love between you and your husband, that doesn't mean you can't try to make each other happy. Perhaps thinking on what could help both of you live a happier life, and reflecting on that, would be a good first step to take. You say you are high maintenance... but perhaps you can... lower your maintenance cost, so to speak. Perhaps... both of you will one day sit under a Sakura tree, and enjoy a sunset together, and discover that love could indeed bloom."
Seichiro took another long sip, then sighed, looking into his cup, watching the liquid ebb and flow.

@ Athletics Competition, 100m Race:
At Raicho's command, all the samurai would take off running, fists pumping and legs charging as they would barrel across the muddy terrain!
Ujina Denbe would take off like a bullet, not unlike an actual hare, taking the immediate lead.
Bayushi Kojiro would keep a moderate pace, ensuring he did not tire himself out and fall behind!
Unfortunately, the Mantis Yoritomo Hisashi would be right beside him, not willing to get left behind either!
Kakita Zanzen, however, would have a bit of trouble. Kakita never trained like this! This was... this was more like Daidoji training than... oh, right, Daidoji Training Grounds. Zanzen tried to maintain the delicate balance between effort and grace, and was losing at both.
Kuni Kaori would be in the same boat as him however, groaning in an upset tone at having to trample through the mud like a farmer. {13 vs TN 15}
Mirumoto Sozen would seemingly run on the mud like it was solid dirt, bounding beyond the other samurai like it was child's play... and keeping pace with Denbe! "Where do you think you're going, little Hare? Not ahead of me!" he shouted, laughing. {33 vs TN 25}
Yoritomo Susumu would see the Hare and Dragon zip past him, to which he responded, "To Jigoku with you bastards!" He would still run like the dickens, but didn't try to pass the two samurai, because he was a lush, not an idiot. {25 vs TN 20}
Isawa Sosuke was in shape, but no star athlete. Seeing the Crane and Crab fall behind, he was content staying ahead of them, and didn't push his luck tiring himself out. {23 vs TN 15}
Without a word, Sayoko would rush past half the group, her eyes focused on the finish line, keeping shoulder to shoulder with Susumu! {27 vs TN 20}
ATHLETICS, 0m-25m Group 1 (the lead!) Ujina Denbe Mirumoto Sozen
Group 2 Yoritomo Susumu Horiuchi Sayoko
Group 3 Yoritomo Hisashi Isawa Sosuke Bayushi Kojiro
Group 4 Kuni Kaori Kakita Zanzen
Everyone, give me your rolls for the second quarter of the race!
