blütenkränze The Hyūga and Senju princesses meet! "Kashiwa, she can't simply sleep all day. We're nearly there!" Suddenly stirred, a set of twelve year old amber eyes shot wide open. Even before opening her eyes, she had instinctively raised her arms up in the shape of an X and caught the glancing swipe of her mother's fan before it could reach her forehead. Keyaki huffed, sitting back in chair and raising the fan to obscure Kozakura from her view. The amber eyes rolled in their socket, the little girl they belonged to turning to face her father in the hope that he might be less irate. The stern look that lined his face told her otherwise, and she sighed. "Koza," he sighed. "I thought you would have taken this visit more seriously! Weren't you hounding your mother and I about peaceful relations with other clans just last week?" Kozakura pulled herself upright, adjusted her paint-stained viridian summer dress, and frowned. "But we're already friends with the Hyūga clan, dad. What's the point in dull politics like this, if nothing is going to change anyway...?" Kashiwa sighed again, pressing his finger to his forehead and slumping back into his chair in defeat. He knew that it would be pointless and ineffective to discuss the matter right now, and that clever as she was, Kozakura would find a way to redirect the conversation to her constant gripe with how irrational their generation-long war with the Uchiha clan was. He did not need that, on such an important day. Leaning forward, the brushed a small tangle of white hair that had frumped down to fringe over her eyes, and tucked it behind her right ear. "Do not worry about the politics of the matter today, my little mulberry. Your mother and I will handle things." Kozakura leaned her head on it's side, and her father gave a small smile. "I wouldn't have let you come in such a messy dress if you were going to be joining us at the table for this meeting." Kozakura nodded, feeling slightly guilty for not putting more effort into her appearance. She smoothed out her dress, ran her fingers through her hair and attempted to make herself look more presentable. But she was still confused. Why was she being strung along for this, then? She could have been training, or painting, or doing something fun instead. Was she just going to sit in a boring tea room going over her scrolls? "So... I'm here to... be here?" Kashiwa smiled, and raised a finger in correction. "Yes, and no, little sapling. You won't be bored to death by border talks and policy readings." She gave him an untrusting look, squinting at him. "I won't?" He reached over and took her hands, his smile shrinking and his expression turned serious. "You have a more important task today. Your mother and I will be hosted by the heads of the family, while you will have the honor to be in the care of..." He pointed out of the palanquin's window to a white haired little girl sitting alone in a flower field. "The Byakugan Princess, Hoshiko. Kozakura's mood brightened at the thought of spending time with another child who could understand the pressures of being a nobleman's daughter. The girl in the field didn't seem much older than six or seven, but Kozakura was excited nonetheless. Most of the other clans she had been forced to meet with had noble heirs, but they were all boys and rather dull ones at that. Standing up, Kozakura hugged her father and gave him a determined look. "I'll make sure to represent our family well. You can focus on your boring old policy meeting." Poking her tongue out, she stepped off the palanquin as it lurched away across the field. With a smile on her face, she made her way over to the little girl, curtsied, and awkwardly extended her hand in greeting mid-bow. "Hi- uh..." She stumbled, clearly uncertain of what the most perfect thing to say should be, to present her family well. "Greetings, I am Kozakura, daughter of the Senju clan. It is an honor to make your acquaintance, Princess Hoshiko." Hoshiko Hyūga OOC: First post! |  Ninjutsu: 1 Taijutsu: 0 Genjutsu: 0 Technique: 0 Toughness: 1 Speed: 0 Stamina: 0 CP: 5/5 HP: 100/100 |
