Eito had spent most of the day off, wandering from place to place, plotting, planing and writing to try and get his works finished. He has notes on his desk, trying to find the salvaging company he promised to his freinds and to make Akane smile as he waits to see if his boldest gambit had paid off. To see if Iweko Yoshinobu would come and speak to him on the matters he had suggested. He has his bottle of chocolate liqour ready as well as some of his sweets and snacks, after all even if the Prince was an Iweko which meant he was both Kitsuki and Imperial trained then he would have no other choice but to treat this like any other deal. Any other seduction. The only difference is the penalties for failing here are death. |

The soft knock come's on Eito's door not long after school.
"Shibatsu-sensei?" the voice asked from the other end; pleasant, masculine, patient.

Eito stands, quickly making his way to the door and opening it. When the Prince knocks one must embrace the opportunity. "Iweko-Sama, please make yourself comfortable. I have some liqour, some soda and some candy if you wish." he says with that bright easy smile.

Yoshinobu smiles as he enters, offering Eito a bow respectful enough for an honored sensei - in spite of being the Prince.
"You run a candy company, yes? I mean, I can't turn down sweets really. I'd be happy to accept." This was hardly a gift, so no need for the game. No different than sharing tea or sake. "How is Shibatsu-sensei doing today?"

Eito nods brightly. "Yes! Yes you know of me! I am quite flattered. But please, whenever you like Iweko-sama. After all one day this will all belong to you if indirectly."
He sighs as he gestures to his paperwork. "Tired but active. Keeping my investments running, doing a favor for some friends, working on my classes which I am disappointed but not surprised you have not attended."

Yoshinobu took some of the offered snacks as well as a seat.
"Commerce is one of my weaker areas, yes. I wish I could attend every class as to not give anyone offense, but I am only one man."

Eito smiles gently. "It would literally be no trouble for me to give you private tutoring if you wanted. Most men would kill for the right to have private conversations with the future Emperor on a regular basis." he says as he pours himself a shot and takes a seat "If you don't mind a man like myself tutoring you."

"You are talented and knowledgeable enough to be a sensei at the school, Shibatsu-sensei. I'm not sure if anyone doubts your character or your credibility. That is something we can likely arrange, I'll need to eventually understand the basics if nothing else."
Yoshinobu smiles brightly. "Or someday choose the right woman to be my wife."

Eito offfers a small smile. "My credibility I would argue is quite good. My character? Well that depends. My loyalty to the Empire I think has been proven but I walk a very different path from most of it's servants. And I agree that you should, far too many Lord rely on the old methods of simply trusting a merchant to handle their coin, a misguided path."
He then smiles just as brightly as he hears this. "I would have assumed the Yasuki had that reputation, not the Kuni. But some Kuni can be quite shrewd."

"Indeed it has," Yoshinobu comments on Eito's loyalty. "You are still here, and the traitors are not, after all."
"I still feel a bit weird handling my own coin, to be fair. I usually just ask merchants to take what they think their fair due is. It takes a brave man or a fool to try and deceive the future Emperor in such a manner, and I do not think I have been swindled thus far." He smiled when Eito mentioned the Kuni. "This Kuni in particular is. I suppose it should be no surprise to anyone at this point that I am courting Hinata-chan."
