Otomo Katsumi sighed as she tapped her foot and studied her watch. There was another Otomo at this school and it took me this long to meet with her. I do hope she hasn't been contaminated by the very nature of this place. She had made it a point of discovering and getting in contact with her little cousin Otomo Mako. So now she simply waited the arrival. |

Otomo Katsumi. She had... heard things about this woman. Things that, well, some of them made her worry, other parts of them - like Priya's relationship and the things they did in the bounds of it, well. She couldn't help but be worried and interested. She was on her phone as she walked into their cladenstine meeting place, "No, no, I need all of those dishes. By six. Today. Yes, yes, I know I only placed the order this morning. Look, I have the money, I'll pay double your normal rates." She was rubbing her forehead, "Yes. Double." Finally, she hung up, still wearing her school uniform at this point, the Otomo mon over her heart, and the Ide mon on her back, near her left shoulder.
The blonde Otomo wasn't hard to spot, and the pink haired imperial walked over, giving a deep bow, "Otomo Katsumi-sensei? It is an honor to have you request my presence." She had her On... on, for once.

This is the girl that's been picking up all the girls. She looks at Otomo Mako. A small smile playing across her features. "Mako-Chan I feel as though I have been most rude." Her eyes glance at the Ide mon almost... dismissively Why wear a mon of such a low class family. You are an Imperial. Honoring your lessers is beneath you. "After all Mako-Chan we are family I feel as though family should spend more time together." She bows her head. "So I offer my apologies for not getting in contact with you sooner. So the least I can do is treat you." She motions for Otomo Mako to follow her into the chosen Cafe.

The word family, it... well, it amused her, she had already thought of another family as her own, but it was true - Katsumi was related to her somehow, she was almost certain she could track the direct connection if given a day to look over her family records, "Of course, Otomo Katsumi-sensei." Her voice was even, as she looked over the cafe, "I've yet to eat here, how are their sweets?" She asked it more to fill the void, knowing that the Imperial would only chooses a fine place indeed - that was the one thing she could trust of Imperials, tongues with taste for overly expensive things. She had her own.
"I was thinking of getting dessert. A nice yellow cake, perhaps?" She stated her intended order, and how she didn't want real food, "I've always been partial to sweets."

Otomo Katsumi glances back at Otomo Mako Hmmm well she has protocol down at least. But must it always be the sweets. She smiles at her dear cousin. "They are to die for dearest cousin." She continues forward once more. Eventually settling on a seat and watching her cousin with a degree of interest. "So then Mako-Chan do tell me about your time at the school. Made any... friends?"

Mako stares at Katsumi, she's watching her with those same eyes Katsumi is making, a little judgement, a little interest, and a little bit of distaste, just under the surface. "Good. I love a nice dessert." Her smile grew larger, as Katsumi asked about friends, and she giggled softly into a hand, "Ah, I've made many friends. I know a few of them know you as well, Otomo-sensei." She left it vague at that - did she mean Hinata? Did she mean Priya, "Have you made many?" She returned the question, as odd as that was to do, a little sly smile.

She folds her hands together. "I have made a few yes." She taps her finger to her lips. "For the most part though I have been busy trying to perform my duty to the empire." She looks towards the girl and her eyes narrow slightly. "Something us Imperials should work together on..."

"Hai? I hadn't been informed of any official duty?" She said it with this little knowing smile, she was enjoying being a little shit, especially as the waitress came, "I'll have a slice of yellow cake. And..." She looked at Katsumi, raising her eyebrow, "Strawberry? Or are you more of a chocolate fan?" She had no idea her implications were being entirely missed by the older woman, unaware that Priya had hidden her existence.
Once Katsumi had placed her order, she spoke another sentence, "I like to be surrounded by wonderful people, regardless. It makes life happier."

Otomo Katsumi taps her finger on the table. "Well I suppose unofficial and the prince has stricken me from directly intervening. I am sure you are familiar with Kuni Hinata-Chan?" Otomo Katsumi turns to the waitress and makes her order before casually dismissing the girl. "The matter of allowing another crab anywhere near the Imperial throne is troubling to me. Least of all one that is little more then a ladder climber seeking to use the Prince's honest if naive affection to boost her own status."

"I've met her. We're friends." Mako doesn't hide that bit of information at all, smiling to Katsumi as she said it, not upset at Katsumi for doing her job, not yet at least, but definitely waiting to see how she responds, "I don't know what her intentions for the prince were originally, Otomo Katsumi-sensei. But from what I have seen of her - and I promise you, I am good at understanding how people feel - she seems to genuinely be in love." Her hands were placed on the table, and her fingers folded together, "I'm not going to intervene with that. The royal line may protect their heir, of course." A sweet smile, she was trying to be nice and friendly to the woman, "But I am sure that is something they are already handling. It is not as if being in love has ever prevented someone from being told to marry another person."
