Mochihiko takes a chocolate out of his pocket, one of those that he keeps for his sister and his betrothed, and carefully unwraps it. Of course, he will deal first with the horse and then with the Scorpion. He spreads his hand slowly so as not to scare it and while feeding her he speaks to Chiyo.
"It's a gifting giving ritual then. Something you don't need yet want. I'm up for that, don't worry, Bayushi san." He pretends to be thinking for a moment, but the line that follows is a plain "I will have to insist" followed by a bright smile.

"You are gifting me with a moment of your time, Otomo-san? How very thoughtful of you," she responded, her voice beginning to drip with sickly sweet venom. "But I'm afraid I must decline. Why should a friend impose on another when he ever so reluctantly offers it?"
Basically, I ain't your ho, Imperial-pain-in-my-ass, she thought. Should I turn him down if he offers again? Or should I take the opportunity to one-up him in private? I bet he wouldn't even catch me someplace alone. He's going to need at least one, maybe two servants and half a crowd to feel like a big man around someone like me.
That's how all these stuck-up rich and entitled boys are. They don't mean a damn thing when you catch them alone.

"Have I appeared to be reluctant, Bayushi san?" He asks with a raised eyebrow and inclines his head. "I must then apologise. With all the honesty that I can gather after such a revelation that has shaken my inner self, I beg for your forgiveness and for a chance to show you that my heart only hides the warmest feelings of appreciation for a true friend such as yourself. Please, stop being," a bitch, "reluctant yourself and join me on a night out this Saturday." Thankfully, the Otomo manages not to laugh with his own antics.

Mizuki looks at the chocolate and back down at Otomo Mochihiko. For a long moment silence. Despite the boys continued attempts to goad the scorpion. Mizuki just stared at the Otomo. Utaku Hitomi at her side simply blinks watching everything occur. "Mizuki?" Mizuki bends down and very gently takes the chocolate out of Otomo Mochihiko's hand. Carefully the horse begins to chew on the chocolate all the while it's eyes very intensely watching the young Otomo. Gauging him studying him.

A younger Chiyo would have refused, giving less than a damn about what anyone else thought. However...the Unicorn might catch on to her catty attitude, and she wanted that Utaku under her wing along with the rest of her little ducklings. Being too cold to the Otomo might put her off.
"You sincerely wish to make amends...then I suppose I can find time this weekend to meet up with you." She flashes him a smile, this time with a faint glint of teeth. "We have much to catch up on, I imagine."
She started to get the impression that he was starting to make sacrifices now. He sure put a perfectly good Saturday on the line. Chiyo had nothing else really planned otherwise.

She is insufferable. And hot. The Otomo nods. "Catching up will be a pleasure." He says and turns to the horse. "What about this beauty? Do you want another one? May I offer her another one, Utaku san? Or will you think that I am spoiling her? And for the love of the kami, are we done with the tomatoes and the cucumbers? We said something about tea, if I'm not mistaken."
/OOC: Do you two want to start wrapping this up since the day has flipped?

ooc: *Shrug* I have no qualms with that
ic:
Utaku Hitomi nods her head. "Again that is up to Mizuki. She is smart enough to know when enough is enough." The horse neighs and clops her feet a few times. "Hmmm Mizuki says she is quite done. As for tea yes that would be lovely."

(Yup! I’m cool with that!)
“Well,” she pauses, pretending to check her grocery list. “That was the last of it. All we need is the tea if Utaki-san insists.”
This is perfect. I mean, it could be better, but it’s pretty damn good. I win, Chiyo one, Mochihiko zero.

A million victories for the Otomo, none for the Scorpion. Mochihiko is good with that and smiles broadly. They can go for tea now. He will have to see what he is going to do with this date he got himself into. Probably something simple. Dinner, movie, a few drinks, a short drive to his apartment, a short walk to his bed. He stops himself right there. He also has a date with Natsu chan earlier that day. He should be focusing on that!
"Yes, anything and anywhere Utaku san wants." He states and prepares to follow the girls.

Utaku Hitomi led the group away from the now forgotten food vendors. A smile on her face. So what if she had no idea where she was going. She felt as though she made her first friends while here and that was something wasn't it? Mizuki simply neighed in sadness for her poor naive friend
