Hinata leaned against the side of the hot spring, tapping her fingers against it and thinking. Nothing the others were talking about really interested her...but then, Aiko walked in. Hinata was impressed by the tattoos she had. Of course, such things were normal for a Dragon, but she'd never seen them on display in such a manner. Her limited knowledge of etiquette failed her here, as she did not know whether it was rude to ask about them or not. Deciding to play it safe, Hinata instead bowed to Aiko, and began inspecting her tattoos out of the corner of her eye. Hopefully she wouldn't notice.

"Konbonwa, sensei." Tetsuko greets the newcomer. "It is us who must apologize, for we did not realize it was time for the sensei's to come," she says a little bit sheepishly.

If Aiko has noticed Hinata's attention, she's not commenting on it, instead looking over her shoulder, "Ah! Your timing is perfect, Doji-sama. Ichiro-san was just mentioning how she was interested in improving her iaido skills."

DAMNIT! Priya bows to the Crane sensei from where she is sitting, silently resolving not to come back to the baths. She was obviously just too gay to function.
"Urm, hai sensei! Yes. It is one of the weaknesses in my form I feel, and I intend to work hard to correct it"

Fuyuko gives a gentle smile at Aiko, her few memories of the Thunder were fond. "Ah perfect. I would be happy to whip her into shape." she says with just a hint of playful threat. The Doji's porcelain skin is covered with many tiny scars. The marks of the blades that have beaten her. She has thankfully not noticed the maid from the cafe earlier.

Aiko pauses, noticing the way Pirya is reacting, then making a mental note to have a chat with the girl later. It would probably be a conversation that the Ichiro would find surprising, but it's mostly the teacher wanting to not have a student end up in a compromising position in the future because of some Scorpion.

And then another sensei entered the springs.
The last time she was here, it was quieter and more intimate. Then again, she didn't have much company at the time. Just her, a fox, and a number of fluffy things slithering around.
Hisui finds a nice spot to relax. She stretches a little before she realizes that there's a group. Then she spots Aiko and waves. However, her eye finds itself drawn to one of the others. Yet another familiar face --- she kept running into them, it seemed --- and she's trying to place if this is yet another alumni.
But for that, she needs to get a closer look.

"Hai sensei... I will be a devoted student I am sure. I might never make the Iaido team, but it is my desire to make the Kendo team, and I feel it is important to know both arts" She nods "The study of the blade is the thing I wish to devote myself to most here. If my name could one day be half as renowned as either of yours, I would pass to the next life with honour"

Fuyuko blinks slightly at the compliment. She turns to the other woman a moment. "If you devote yourself, then you will find success. I will ensure it. And thank you for your kind words." she has yet to notice the now quite bodacious Unicorn from her youth.

Aiko looks at Priya, then shakes her head, "I would recommend against shooting for a goal like that, Ichiro-san. Far better to seek to improve yourself for the sake of self-improvement. Fame can....be a rather heavy burden at times, as you will be expected to be something you are sometimes not."
Especially for someone who has your interests.
