Rumors: Day 13

Post by Cearnach » Mon Dec 09, 2024 3:04 am

-What was all that about in the sumai matches?
-I don't know. North team seemed to take it all, though.
-Yeah. Strange that so many of them favor the old man, though.
-Maybe he's a fan?
See the little sparrow, flitting about. Pecking at leftover grains, I've no doubt. Too little, too late, to have any clout.
"Lots of action at the betting parlor. The Tortoise seemed to be at the center of it, no surprise. One wonders what all she has in the bag."
What was with that Crab skulking around the riverside?
Holding hands? The scandal!!

Letters
A folded letter dropped off at Lion House on the morning of Day 13 by one of the kitchen servants. A couple of short downy feathers are attached.
Anonymous wrote: The pine branches sway
A hawk leaps into the air
Swift, unerring flight
Steadfast soul lowers her bow
Arrow pierces dummy’s heart
Intent: praise the archery performance of the writer of day 12's poem. (GoL 18)
On plain white paper, tied with a white ribbon. When opened chrysanthemum petals of 6 colors are enclosed. The message is written with a flowing script and adorned by drawings of small clouds on the page. Left on a table in the main area of the galleries, addressed to Subeto no Hito

Who would you choose
In your most esteemed wisdom
Were it not yourself

For the good of the empire
Yet, it's not our place to choose

Intent: what it says on the tin. (GoL 23)
A letter on silver-flecked paper artfully knotted around the stalk of an early red sasanqua camellia blossom.

Someone cheered your victory, though others were watching--

still I have not learned
my lesson--now rumors will
surely fly again
for I live in a world of
love where he is most welcome



GoL subtext: Yeah, totally worth it. GoL 29


Carried around by a generic Lion page and delivered to, uh... wherever Tanikaze is staying. I don't know if that's Phoenix House or if the wrestlers have their own lodgings somewhere else.
