Bayushi Chiyo stood, appearing somewhat uncomfortable, before the entrance to Doji Tsuki and Mirumoto Sakura's dorm room. She seemed to be uncharacteristically nervous, as if something was deeply troubling her. She rose her hand and knocked lightly upon the door, hoping for one of the two occupants to be available. She looked like she hadn't even gotten settled in after class, books under her arm and her purse heavy with both her daily supplies and school supplies. Really doing up that nervous, hard-working student angle, she thought, which was not exactly what this was all going to be about. Maybe I should have forgotten to put on some makeup? No way...should I leave the mask out of this? The mask always scares the little ones off.Not that it was scary, but the whole Scorpion thing did intimidate many students unless they themselves were Scorpion. Nah, this is perfect. She can make this all work to her advantage. Mirumoto Sakura |

Sakura opens the door, "Yes?"
She is wearing a comfortable set of pajamas, designed more for the mountains of the Dragon than the plains of Toshi Ranbo, but they are what Sakura chooses to wear. She seems rather relaxed right now.

"Excuse me, Mirumoto-san," Chiyo begins with a polite bow. "If you are available, may we share a word? I did not want to disturb you in Enigmas this morning."
Damn, this Dragon looked downright adorable in her pajamas. Sure, they were kind of cozy for the weather down here and probably decades out of style, but little Sakura here really rocks it.

"I suppose I have time, Bayushi-senpai. How may this one be of assistance?" Sakura asks, curiously.

“Um,” she looks behind her, then past Sakura. “Do you mind if we talk inside? Is Doji-sama here? If not we can speak in my room. Otomo-sama was not in our room a few minutes ago...”
She tried to play up a benign sense of urgency, not too urgent as to startle the Dragon, but enough for the young one to understand that the older student needed her assistance specifically for something of relative importance.

"Kakita-senpai isn't in at the moment. And...I suppose we can talk inside," Sakura replies, eyeing the Bayushi with a hint of wariness. After all, random people needing help in the evening never boded well.

'Oh? A thousand apologies yet. I must have read the roster incorrectly in my haste. This should not take much of your time." What, was she sleeping before I passed by? Someone's cranky. I could have sworn the roster said--ech, it doesn't matter. she tipped her head and made her way inside.
Once the door was closed, the Mirumoto would have beheld the site of a rather defeated Bayushi. She seems nearly fidgety, which is odd for someone of the senior class--let alone a Scorpion--to be.
"I was hoping I could...get some advice. I know we have not properly met but... well, maybe this is foolish but...I was not sure who else I could ask."

Sakura blinks a bit, not really sure what the Bayushi is about to ask, as she is a first year and one who has spent most of her days in the Mountains of the Dragon. The only things she could really help with are mainly philosophical ones.
"Um. It is alright, Bayushi-senpai. How can I help?"

“So I...”
She sighs, trying to regain a composure that’s all to easy to regain on a typical basis but needs to seem like a struggle to obtain now. Books are now no longer being clenched so tightly to her chest. Breath slowed, shoulders relaxing slightly, she finally continues.
“I may be...interested in...Tamori Yoshi. But I am not entirely sure how to go about these feelings,” and like a dam burst, the words begin to leak out of her. “I mean I’ve only just met him, but I don’t know—it’s so strange. He’s so sweet and so kind and I’ve chased so many away and I know I will likely do it again and I can’t turn to anyone without all the scrutiny over what I’ve done in the past, or who I am as a person. I have no idea who I can turn to for guidance anymore. Even our elders...they will simply find my feelings to be something of malintent or frivolous.”
The fast talking helped to pull up a blush—that and holding her breath for half a minute to speak her peace.

Sakura stares blankly at Chiyo for several long and awkward moments. She is trying to process this information. Mostly because she is right now wondering why, in Lady Benten's name, she is being sought out for romantic advice.
"Alright. That's nice. I'm glad for you, Bayushi-senpai. I am uncertain what advice you are expecting from me."
