Just when classes would normally be about to start, Akodo Seijuro arrived in the courtyard dressed in his festival yukata for today's occasion. It was a simple thing really, thin and colored in earthen tones - oranges, yellows, and browns. Something you'd probably see most Lion wear on a day like this.
If what Tsuki had told him was true, and he had no reason to doubt her, this would probably be a much more important day for his future than it initially seemed. He'd be enjoying the festival with two women, one of which he would be betrothed to. Basically a double miai, with two sisters, just to make it even more awkward. He was bad at this kind of thing. So instead of mull over it too much, he just waited under his favorite tree until the two of them approached.

Approach they did. The first girl he knew as Tsuki. Her hair forever done in some stylish fashion that likely took way longer than it needed to, but ever wonderful in it's black hues put together with ornaments that went well with the clothing she wore. Today was no different, considering the kimono she had picked out was sporting more green than blue, though the Crane mon was ever present. The colors of summer in dancing leaf patterns scattered about the silk fabric.
Tsuki offered a wave to Seijuro and a bow. "Seijuro-san, it's good to see you. As promised, I told you I would introduce you to my sister. This is Nariko," She motioned to the girl beside her.

Beside Tsuki was a young woman who's physique and form weren't far off from her sisters. Her hair however was dyed a pink like color and let free to hang out past her shoulders. She too wore a festival kimono but it seemed to be of a more muted colors, though it was likely in fashion. Her eyes kept darting about in curiosity as she took in the school around her, only finally settling on Seijuro when they had approached.
Nariko gave Seijuro a half baked smile and a wave. "Hiya."

Seijuro bowed to both of the Crane women properly, looking over the two of them for a moment before he averts his gaze.
"Good to see you as well, Tsuki-san. The festival has kept us pretty busy, so I am ready to see how the fruits of our labor have ripened." His tone is even yet polite, as he turns to Nariko. "Nice to meet you Nariko-san. I'm Akodo Seijuro. Your sister has told me a lot about you."

Tsuki smiled and nodded in agreement. "That is has, but from what I've seen so far, it looks like we have a veritable garden of ideas on our hands."
She waited for Nariko to trade any pleasantries before she looked about. "Seijuro-san, is there any club you wish to look at first?"

"Oh," Nariko answered as she looked to her sister with an uncertain gaze, "Umm, she's told me a bit about you as well. Just good things." She tacked on the last part a bit quickly and quietly.

"Same here," Seijuro replied to Nariko, smiling only slightly awkwardly before he turned back to Tsuki.
"There's lots of stuff to check out. Concerts if Nariko-san is interested, a few of the food stalls. The baseball club is having one of those pitching games, right? Might be fun to compete against each other."
(OOC: Figure we can make up and fill in some holes for some of the usual festival type stuff if we don't want to thread hop.)

"I think that would be immensely fun! If Nariko-san is okay with it, we could start with the baseball club?" Tsuki looked backed to her sister to confirm such a thing.
(OOC: Works for me. Be a lot of hopping otherwise.)

Nariko blinked and stared at Tsuki before giving a slow nod. "Yeah, sure. I had no idea they held concerts here." The girl said in soft voice, fidgeting slightly in place.

"There are a few pop idols here actually, but as I understand it that type of music may not be your thing," Seijuro says, beginning to walk towards the baseball club's display. "If I'm wrong feel free to correct me."
He tried as best he could, with what little courtly training he had, to convey that to the younger sister. "Baseball club first it is then. I think the games are probably my favorite part about festivals."
