Kitsuki would find her arm looped around that of her latest acquaintance. What had been a split second decision was quickly escalating into something more. She hadn't been prepared for him to so boldly take her hand and lead her to the shipyards. In front of Kiri's elite no less! It would undoubtedly cause a swirl of rumors and scandal. She could imagine the tabloids now: Kit & Gyo: The Angel of the Isles spotted with the Demon of Haute Couture! If the press began to link them together, there was no telling what sort of political turbulence it might stir up. On one hand, it might cause the Kumo refugee population to feel more at ease in Kiri. On the other hand, it would infuriate Nationalists who had spilled blood for the Empire. Either way, it meant more meetings, more press conferences and perhaps an interview or two. She'd deny it all of course but it would be necessary for her to seem transparent. Kitsuki tried to clear her mind of those excess thoughts. For once she wanted to enjoy herself. Especially on this night. It had been an impulsive decision to ask for a tour at this hour, but it was one she had made by herself and for herself. Her father was right. She had done nothing but give herself to Kiri fully. But what about her needs? What about her desires? The tiara of the Princess was heavy on her head and it would be nice if someone could let her set it aside for a minute. The illustrious Osho seemed eager to take up the task.
Since leaving the Red Heresy, Gyo might notice that Kit was more soft-spoken. Her behavior was demure. Not quite submissive but willing to let him take the lead in both conversation and direction. Without Zizz, Kitsuki found herself less stiff with an overriding sense of justice. The power of the Angel still resided in her, but its influence was dampened. She felt more like her regular old self than she had in years. She was cleaved to the taller man and he'd feel the soft weight of her afro resting against his shoulder. She allowed herself to be led by him as they walked along the village's impressive shipyard. The nation's mighty port was the stuff of legend but it was the shipyard where all the magic happened. Workers toiled ceaselessly building the mighty imperial fleet. Merchants rented out whole swathes of the area to add more boats to their holdings. He must have done very well for himself since coming here. Even the richest of merchants have a hard time securing a place in the shipyard. Eventually, the pair came to Gyo's lot.
Each of the ships had their own beauty about them but the one she had chosen was gorgeous. Kit's brown eyes widened as they drew near. It was the perfect place to host a party and maybe even to get to know this former musician a bit better.
