After a long day of missions yesterday, Miki decided that a trip to the hot springs of Moon Country sounded like a very relaxing time and opportunity to hide away in a proper climate for a change. She enjoyed the colder weather, the longer she stayed within Moon Country; the easier it got to be around; but she did surely miss Konohagakure and it’s warmer climate. As Miki gathered her things in a simple bag, she would slip on the large parka lined with fur that she had been given by one of the elves demanding that she ‘dressed properly’; she still choice more flamboyant clothing, opting for an intricate design against some thick white leggings, a satin crimson short dress/shirt depending on how one looked at it, lined with the same fur as her crimson parka. She normally didn’t wear red; but it was such a flattering color on her, and tis’ the season.

As she finally slipped out of the hotel, and began her journey towards the hot spring that she had heard several other ‘elves’ talk about, she hoped that it would be large enough to body a single person at least. She hummed as she walked along, making a quick stop for some more butterscotch liquid courage, as she called it; the warm liquid was heavy with the taste of butterscotch; and she believed that there was also actual scotch within the drink itself; as the burn that went down her throat reminded her of the first time she had ever drank… Recalling Konohagakure once again; along with the friends she made that night, well what she could remember of that night she thought for the most part she had made friends. Miki would return to trek towards the mountains, knowing that it was about a forty-five minute walk before she would reach the hot springs and relaxation.

it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together

Wed Dec 15, 2021 11:50 pm

Being away from the desert was exactly what her soul needed. She couldn’t have been more right to open that seal - even if it had been for monetary gain this trip was turning into a great escape of her mind. She had allowed herself to fully immerse herself in the surroundings of this new country and the missions she was tasked with - but even she needed a moment of reprieve from such things. As she moved through the crowds of people and the habitants of the manor she had been summoned to she heard of a hot spring in the area and considered it for a few days before finally giving in - to the behest of all the elven creatures who tried to push their clothing on her that she abhorrently refused. Kyuketsuki do not feel cold as others did, chalk it up to not having a heart beat or simply the fact that she was a missed meal from comatose the chill was really nothing more than a nuisance on a bad day. Her clothing had remained the same as it had from her arrival - though as she stepped into the hot springs lobby after nearly an hour of travel her skin was met with a shiver of warmth that the place naturally held.

Trying her best to tap into her old self she was kind enough at the desk to gather the toiletries allotted to all guests after she showed her credentials and was soon guided to the changing area to be left to her own devices. The tiny beings that ran the place had fast paced heartbeats like a rabbits, which wasn’t as loud or intense as a human’s - it was an interesting mental note but that was where it ended. Disrobing and folding her clothes neatly she wrapped her hair into a tight bun allowing her bangs to frame her face before stepping out into the spring itself with the white towel wrapped tightly around her. She knew she wasn’t alone, the singular heartbeat came into focus before the woman was spotted in the changing room - she gave the unknown woman space and paid her no mind but… curiosity usually won out and she suspected a conversation would begin once she was settled; the only other thing she brought in with her was her silver flask filled with Awamori, the strongest liquor in Sunagakure. Settling back against one of the rocks the heated water burned warmth into her pale skin from the outside while the swig of drink warmed her from the inside.

So far her trip to this strange place was....interesting. Saya had approached the gates with the goal of hanging out and finally having some fun, but was thrust immediately into a set of missions she hadn't intended. Thankfully she'd met some fun people, and the tasks they'd been assigned weren't too terribly dificult, but still she longed to get away and find something to do. Something to get into. Without her close friend Dana around, she was craving a chaos that could only be sated in one way. She'd reached the spings early. Like before it was actually supposed to be open early, and with a quick exchange of additional funds been granted access to the empty area so that she could plan her next great antic. Forming seals, she called her summon Ragnar into the plane, Dropping him into the warm waters only to draw him immediately from their depths. They had work to do.

All in all the preparation wasn't too terrible. She'd brought a giant paper mache rock wrapped in a perfectly painted exterior to make it seem just that much more realistic, slipping into the hidden cavity via a door on the backside. It was placed with intention just at the edge of the pool on the far side of the door, and so she would wait with her team for the perfect moment to strike.

When the guests entered, one of which would be the legendary KazeKage who Saya knew from reputation, but unfortunately not by sight, Only the coach puppet floating on his back wearing a not so convincing black one piece bathing suit would give any indication that something was going on. Where he got sunglasses from, we don't know. The better question would by why was he even wearing sunglasses?! It wasn't particularly bright out in the snowy land where the peppermint gate resided, and also he didn't have working eyes. They're made of wood. It was silly, but sometimes fashion can be just that.

"come on.. Come on... Just a few more..." Her voice was barelly a whisper as she listened out for the sounds of additional patrons. This would be her biggest peformance since the inspired setup for Mr. Keita's training class where she lowered herself with chakra threads from the ceiling onto an awaiting stage. SLowly she'd form the seals for one of her all time favorite jutsus, mokuton pouring slowly from her body to prepare an extra special surprise. Waiting was never Saya's strong suit. It was for this reason that she needed Ragnar so often, but with the sheer volume of people from every village around the world, She needed this to be just so. She had to find the perfect moment or everything would be ruined.... Just another moment.

A light groan, and a sudden pressure on his face. It took a few moments for him to realize that the pressure was from his own left hand. Giving his head a shake in a desperate attempt to orient himself, he did little more than give himself a strong sense of vertigo. Rolling he found a bucket, to which he promptly got sick. With his stomach empty, eyes open, and head a little more clear he sat up in earnest. Looking down he realized he was completely naked. Odd….he thought as he tried to piece together the events of the night before. There had been a konoha brothel babe, a kiri kid, a super cool guy in a coach outfit that he was pretty sure he’d kissed…..he reached up pulling a splinter from his lip…..odd………

Thinking a little harder he could recall a concert followed by a lot of butterscotch beer. Rubbing his face a little harder he looked to his left, seeing a single bottle of the stuff unopened. Opening it he’d take a drink, swish his mouth out, and then spit it into the used bucket. He’d then take a real drink, a little hair of the nin-hound that bit you never could hurt. Standing he’d stretch taking in the surroundings, he was in a locker room. The realization sparked several more memories….he’d somehow met Mariah Kuniochi……something about palm reading……..and then they along with several others had ended up at these hot springs. The rest though, was all black. With a shrug he figured best to use the hot spring now even if he hadn’t got to the night before, which he was far from certain about.

Replacing his nakedness with a red and green striped Speedo, and taking the bottle with him he made his way towards the shared hotspring area. He’d have the bottle up, taking a drink as he pushed open the door. Dropping the bottle and looking around he’d raise it again, “Miki the menace!” He’d shout jovially. “Long time no see girly!” With that he’d begin walking towards the area of hot water. Just as he was about there however he slipped on some of the water causing himself to splash haphazardly into the water, coming up near a woman he did not know. All through this however through an act of miracles of shinobi skills, his butterscotch beer had not spilled and despite not saving his face from the water the bottle never hit the surface. Fighting himself, he’d take a drink, “wet all this, ain’t it?” He’d smile, blue eyes twinkling, his hair that had been tied in a bun with chopsticks long gone, and instead shoulder length golden strands matted around his face.

Miki was unaware of the two others already positioned within the hot spring; blissfully unaware of the dangerous Kazekage relaxing just behind the showers; she was also unaware of the Saya hiding and laying in wait for both herself and the man who gracefully walked past her; addressing her as if it was not a big deal that he was walking through the woman’s portion of the bathhouse – her eyes flickering towards a sign; stating that it wasn’t a single hot spring; but rather a mix, she would bite her tongue for now, nodding as he shouted towards her; calling her ‘Miki the Menace’, she was unsure how she felt about this title, but simply pressed her lips together; letting out a sigh; Miki wore a simple two piece suit; exposing her mid-drift; she tied the strings as tight as they would go behind her neck; getting up after rising off; she would wrap a towel around her both; walking towards the hot spring – she would be able to witness Asahi made an interesting slip and fall into the water; she couldn’t help but cover her mouth as she grinned; not wanting to be exposed for laughing at the mans misfortunes.

She kept herself quite; watching him carefully to make sure he would resurface; which of course he did; as he managed to keep his butter-beer safe with the entire charade; she couldn’t help but enjoy the amusement from him slipping but also managing not to spill his drink; she let out a small giggle, clutching her own butterscotch liquor drink; making sure not to spill it; as she watched him come out from the water; that’s when she would notice her; the Kazekage; although at the time being she would remain blissfully unaware that she was in fact a Kage. “Oh no.” She would frown, “I apologize ma’am; my friend here… Has obviously had to much to drink already.” She was hopefully the woman was understanding; as she would make note of a container of her own liquid; which would at a later point; should this woman chose not to rat of Asahi and herself for bringing liquor in… Miki would take the towel off; placing it on one of the many rocks untouched by the water but not by the steam. She would slip into the warm water; letting out a small sigh as she did; it felt nice for sure… However; two out of the three people within the water remained unaware of Saya lurking about.

Miki certainly wasn’t ready or mentally prepared for what-ever was planned by the puppet princess of Kirigakure. As Miki placed her drink down on a flatter rock; she would submerge herself for a moment; covering her entire body with the healing waters; as many hot springs were noted to have healing properties within them; for both the mind, body and soul. “My name is Miki Satow.” She would glance towards the other woman; smiling.

Fri Dec 17, 2021 10:59 pm

The heartbeats were her first indication she wasn’t actually alone and wouldn’t be alone for the duration of her stay, from the moment she settled into the water, the white towel soaking through and clinging to her form - she heard them. The woman she had noted from before as well as two others, one oddly coming from a well disguised rock formation toward the back of the room that was 8 meters from her position, and the other from a loud mouthed man. The woman from before was addressed first, the jovial tone of the young man proclaiming her to be ‘Miki the Menace’, either it was tactful observance or tactless flirting. Though her eyes remained shut she not only heard but felt the splash of the man landing in the water, accompanied by the apt giggling of Miki - causing a small smirk to lift the edge of her lip - regardless of rank she still found amusement.

As the man resurfaced, her eyes would slide open, already pinpointed on his location - just in time to see that he had managed to keep a bottle above the water. A soaked form stared back at her, bright blue eyes and long golden hair clinging to his face and neck - her first thought was of a golden retriever. His comment however prompted her response instantly, “That is indeed how water works I hear, graceful entrance by the way.” ,her tone wasn’t harsh nor was it jovial, more matter of fact with a hint of sarcasm - possibly even teasing. Right after his resurface and comment Miki was immediately in damage control mode - apologizing in a rather formal way and noting he had had too much to drink already it seemed. Before she submerged herself she would be able to hear Mizuki’s reply, “There is no such thing as too much to drink, only lack of skill holding it down.” Taking another swig of her own drink as if to emphasize this point.

During the seconds Miki was under the water the gaze of Mizu would flicker back to the rock at the back of the room which had a steadily rising heartbeat coming from it - her expression didn’t change even as the curiosity of it rose. In the next moment she was being spoken to again, this time hearing the woman's full name - this of course caused her to return the gaze and even a small smile to show some form of welcoming nature. “So not a menace afterall, from the look of you though I would guess the clutz had some validity in his assessment.” Taking another drink she let out a deep sigh, relishing the smell of the hot springs and considering when the last time she had actually been in one… 5, no maybe 8 years? “I am Mizuki Kyuketsuki, though some know me better as Mizuki Ohta.” Her eyes shifted once more to the man, eyeing him with a raised eyebrow, “The golden klutz has a name as well I assume?”

Before she allowed the man to answer though her attention reverted back to the curious rock, her face became stern as the possibilities had finished running through her mind - assassin, onlooker, spy - “And the curious ‘rock’ with a heartbeat is sure to have a name as well.” This would be the first time she would call attention outright to her observation, even while she remained in her settled spot - making no move to go investigate further than calling it out publicly - as well as letting onto the fact she could hear heartbeats at all.

Wierd rock with a heartbeat. The fact that she'd heard the voices she was targetting was delayed for a moment when a third voice said the strange sentence. What kind of rock would have a heartbeat? That just didn't make any sense. With a shake of her head, Ai glanced at her sister, speaking in barelly a whisper.

"Aya. I think she's talking about you..." SHIT! She's been made! Someone saw through her perfect disguise and now everything was coming unraveled right before her eyes. She glanced about the area, trying to determine what to do now that the jig was up, but she was inside of a paper mache rock, so she couldn't really like.... See anything? Thankfully there was an answer to that.

"GO TIME! DO IT GO GO GOGO OPERATION NAUTICAL SYMPHONY IS A GO!!!" It took little force for Freyja to heft the rock up over their heads, the lightweight hiding spot floating easily over the wall separating the boys and girls side of the hot springs. There was definitely an 'ow' on the other side following the thud of its landing. That was not currently her problem. As team puppet came into view, two things happened simultaneously. First, She released her jutsu, the pouring of mokuton slipping into the water still far enough away from anyone else to suggest a threat. Wood style stretched out, rising and forming her perfect creation.... It was...

A boat.

Yes. She created a small boat, just large enough to hold her weight as she released her secret technique: musical interulde, which brings us flying into the second thing that happened. The blaring of trumpets marked the introduction to her performance, though the musicians couldn't be seen. Hidden on the other side of the wall, her personal band was sitting in wait for the cue. On the go symbol they began playing their little hearts out as Saya stepped onto the three meter long yact wearing a black tuxedo and sunglasses.

"I'm on a boat! I'm on a boat, everybody look at me cuz i'm sailin on a boat!
I'm on a boat! I'm on a boat, take a good hard look at the mother heckin boat!

I'm on a boat mother hecker take a look at me
strait floatin on a boat on the deep blue sea!
Bustin five knots, wind whippin out my coat,

You can't stop me mother hecker cuz i'm on a boat!"

The scene was spectacular... If a little odd. The two puppets danced about, Freyja having dove into the water before Saya wearing a mermaid tail that matched ai's, Ai laying on the edge of the pool pumping her arms frantically into the air, and all three somehow managing to harmonize through the entire song. At the second chorus, A large bag that seemed to be full of crystal glasses and sparkling cider was pulled from the hatch at the coach puppets back. The puppet, who up to this point was just floating and pretending to not be with the group began to fill them, putting them on small floating boat coasters and shipping them off in the water towards where people were. At one point there was fireworks? Dunno how that happened, but all in all it was spectacular in every way but the girls' dancing. That was unfortunately robotic and a little off beat. When the song finished, having played to its entirety, Saya took a bow.

"THANK YOU THANK YOU! I'm Sayatria, Cosplay Queen of Kirikagure! Feel free to book me in a village near you. Which would be your village cuz otherwise you'd have to travel and that would be silly. I mean that i'm trying to go world wide so like. You get it. THanks. " WIth that, she'd finally allow herself to slip into the water, giving Miki and Asahi an excited wave before flashing a smile at the woman who'd revealed her position. She was pretty proud of herself.

He couldn’t deny it, he liked the newcomer. She was sassy in a dry kind of way. She reminded him of Yasahiro, one of the few people he truly respected, and the only person aside from himself he felt true loyalty towards. He’d smile at her terms of clear endearment of him, reaching up and pushing his hair back out of his face.

“Don’t let her fool you, this girl right here…”. He’d stick a thumb out at Mikki, “this girl has got me wet more than once if you know what I’m trying to say…..”. Leaning in towards the newest of acquaintances he’d whisper…”a menace”. Leaning back he’d take a drink, as the one known as Mizuki was asking for his own name. “Golden klutz, we’ll if you gotta be something be golden right? Asahi Yagami, former samurai, forever oni buster.” He’d proceed to make a dramatic style bow towards his new friend. “I am most pleased to make your acquaintance.” He’d fall backwards keeping one arm above, so that his bottle still maintained a dry exterior. Back stroking slightly he’d end against the wall, allowing himself to rest on the carved seats beneath the warm water. He had no idea who the women was, what her clan name meant, or anything. World affairs, influential people, they had never meant anything to Asahi.

He had made himself in between the two women, a decent place to be in his mind. It had always annoyed Yasahiro….Asahi’s more….base desires and ideas of fun. Some had considered that throughout his spiritual journeys that Asahi would eventually repent and give up on such things. However, the more he studied, the more he communes with the dead, he had decided that the real way to respect the elders gone by was to enjoy life to the fullest. Something, he intended to do for his entire time within this Yuletide landscape.

Looking towards the rock that the woman pointed at, he let out a small sigh. “That Mizuki of the two surnames…….is about to get loud.” He wasn’t sure what was going to happen, but It seemed reasonable to believe that the only reason someone would be hiding beneath a rock was to cause some sort of surprise…..and he was right.

The next cavalcade of celebration filled the hot springs with so much ridiculousness that Asahi despite himself couldn’t help it. Jumping out of the water, he would utilize the water walking to dance alone with Saya’s song, performing an up beat dance he’d once learned from a young lady in the land of iron. It worked better with a partner as so many things do, but he felt he still made it look good. He’d clap at the conclusion of her performance, releasing the jutsu and allowing himself to fall back into the water. “Splendid Saya!“ he’d shout in encouragement. “I’m sure you’ll be Miss World Wide any day now if you approach life like a pit Bull.”

He’d tilt his bottle up finishing it off, and giving it a toss to land in a wastebasket. “So mighty Mizu, what brings you to this little holiday hell?” He’d say smiling. His tendency to perform alliteration was at this point so ingrained he just couldn’t help himself, even when it didn’t always make sense.

As she talked two attendants would come into the room, dressed in the outfits of the spa workers uniforms. They’d lay down a large wooden basket that held many bottles of carrying types of alcohol. “Yer pipe sir.” One would say bowing.

“O thank the Kami!” Asahi would say in delight. Taking the ancient kiseru, one of the few relics from the Yagami compound, he’d place the mouth piece between his lips. The attendant would then hand him a small bag, of which he’d pack the pipe. Smells of cinnamon, nutmeg, and some other herb would mix with the mineral smell of the water. Leaning out of the water he’d grab a new bottle, while the attendant lit his pipe, smoke gently trailing up.

“Please, help yourself.” Need say offering the basket to the two ladies, though he had nothing for Saya. “Anyway you were saying?” He’d ask looking back towards Mizu.

Asahi was newly more wealthy than he had ever been. Money also ironically didn’t mean much to the blonde. It was a thing to be spent, and though he couldn’t fully remember, he was confident he’d dumped quite a lot into the spa last night, which was the only logical explanation for the treatment he was receiving…..and why he hadn’t been arrested for sleeping naked in the changing room overnight…..or maybe they just liked him…..could go either way.

Miki could help the light blush that would run across her face as the woman before her made mention of her appearance perhaps being the reasoning being the ‘menace’; which of course was quite true, and Miki wasn’t one to hide it; in fact she reveled in her outer appearance; it was one of the few things she had always been extremely proud of; however Asahi would be the first to see her this bare. She returned the woman’s smile, then she spoke her name – a name that was all to familiar with the people of Konohagakure; Mizuki Ohta, the Kazekage of Sunagakure… Miki’s eyes darted down; and she would give the woman a simple head bow – she had heard tales of what happened during the summit; but never dreamed to actually meet the woman in person, but yet here they were in the same hot spring… She found it strange; considering everything that was going on within the world that the Kazekage would be… Relaxing in a hot spring in Moon Country; but she wasn’t about to over step her boundaries.

Miki would take note of the comment; the rock with a heart beat… Her eyes would flicker towards the rock that was being mentioned; it was strange but it some-what fit in… How was this woman able to tell about a heartbeat? She couldn’t help but feel confusion about the situation at hand… She was interested in how, but knew that she wasn’t going to be bold enough to inquire about it. Then Asahi would speak up; pointing to the rock as well, making sure to note that it was about to get very loud… He obviously knew something that she hadn’t… Then it clicked in; who could possibly be hiding behind that rock waiting for Asahi and herself… She could feel a sigh; but also a grin come across her face as ‘Puppet Princess’ of Kiriagkure made her appearance. She was…Interesting to say the least… However not quite as she remembered; as she came out and created a…boat?! Her brows would furrow greatly at the sight; then came the singing… She listened; unsure how to feel about the show coming through, nor how to feel about the black tuxedo and sunglasses… What strange attire for a hot spring… What strange actions for a hot spring.

Either way, Miki wasn’t about to drown someone’s dreams, and would clap happily; “Bravissimo!” She would call out towards the girl, a smile drawn across her face as she took another sip of her own drink, her emerald green eyes flickering towards the attendants who would come into the spring; brining a large wooden basket, as it seemed their flamboyant friend didn’t disappoint. She would take a gander, frowning at the fact that was not a single thing for their other friend; “It’s thoughtful, but I think we’re missing something, dear Asahi.” She would speak, her voice always sounded more regal than most, her words carefully picked out; not often would she loosen up, but around Saya and Asahi; she found herself a little more comfortable. Her eyes scanned towards Saya, hopeful that this transaction wouldn’t effect her mood.

She herself would remove a glass and a wine bottle, placing it on the same flat rock she had previously had her first drink that was now but finished; popping the cork as she would fill the glass half full; Mizuki had her own drink; but Miki hadn’t had enough liquid courage inside of her to inquire about it quite yet.

it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together

Sat Dec 18, 2021 9:23 pm

The young man was very much in his element, surrounded by women and in hot water - his expression was one of a man living out some faint fantasy he had in his teenagerhood. The smile alone told her as much, but his words played into it further, pushing his wet hair out of his face before leaning closer to her to be within whisper distance - her expression held as it had before though she took note of his lack of personal space. “Gold is actually a rather soft metal, but if you wish to be it then don’t let me stand in your way, Asahi.” With an awkward bow and a short trip back to the wall he was out of breathing distance once more.

Asahi’s interaction was paired in high contrast to the way Miki regarded her though, registering her name and giving a bow of her head - as if Mizuki had earned anything of the sort. It was however, the next few moments that tested her resolve far more than a lot of things had in most recent years. The ‘rock’ was quickly flung off of an unknown and yet oddly familiar looking girl - but that was set aside immediately as the area was flooded with chakra, Mokuton to be exact as she too was versed in it. The girl had forged a boat in the middle of the hot spring… and was now standing atop it, and singing. Music blared from behind the wall and bounced around the cavernous hot spring area - spiking in her sensitive ears in the most excruciatingly annoying manner.

The second the first words erupted from the girls mouth her eyes would close, her nails growing out to their full 4 inch length and her teeth gritting together to bear through it and not cause a scene. The short song felt like an eternity but she refused movement and held inhumanly still - good thing too since one of the last shouted words from the explosive child was announcing herself as the Cosplay Queen of Kirigakure. Of course she was from Kirigakure, had she not found the most unpleasant experiences always held a Kirigakure shinobi at its heart? She held her immobile position until the noise stopped - the jovial and encouraging words from the other two as well as the band. It was clear she was the only one who despised this show, and she chose not to ‘ruffle any feathers’ so to speak, so she held her tongue.

Still with eyes closed she heard Asahi speak to her again but all she was able to manage for the time being was to lift her flask to her mouth and down the remaining 3/4ths of it immediately. “I came for reprieve and an easy payday. So far I am only getting one of those.” her eyes slid open finally as her body fell back into human motion, no longer a statue clinging to the rocks in effort to contain herself. “I wasn’t saying much of anything, and if I were I couldn’t even begin to hear myself think after that.” the forefinger and middle finger of her left hand came to press firmly against the point between her eyebrows, eyes closing in a slight wince as she finally spoke to the bombarding girl. “Have you any idea how loud that was for someone with sensitive hearing? There isn’t enough alcohol in the world to make this headache go away now.” Releasing a heavy sigh though, her demeanor performed a complete 180 in front of all their eyes - instead of pain and annoyance her expression was one of a more understanding nature.

Even her tone had shifted to a softer ring, each word holding a slight laugh to it, “A pact is a pact though, and I might as well test how high my alcohol limits are right? Not like I can get alcohol poisoning anyways, that requires pumping blood.” She stood a little and made her way to the edge where the attendants had brought in alcohol - the towel clinging to her upper body that was now above water. Reaching over Asahi she grabbed an entire bottle in her pale grip before turning to give the young man a sweet smile, “My some sincerest gratitude at the provisions my dear.”, and she was sincere in her words, as she made her way back to her spot - cracking the bottle open - she would give a sly look of comradery to Miki to show her that she used her cue to call him dear. As she settled back against the rocks and took a heavy swig from her bottle she mused aloud, “Tell me, where do the rest of you hail from?”
