Isao waited for his friend outside of a mom and pop ramen joint on the outskirts of the restaurant district. It was a hole in the wall that didn't get a lot of customers, but it had great ratings online. So, Isao hoped they would get a good lunch out of it and he hoped he'd get a good conversation out of Tsuki. If he was lucky, some information too.

It didn't take long for Tsuki to find her way over to the mom and pop shop, offering a bow to her friend as she approached him. He hadn't been kidding when he said hole in the wall and she was thankful for that. Her father had always been a fan of such diners, and once told her it was because the food was better. Plus no one to bother him. She felt the second reason was probably why he liked them over other places.
"Good afternoon, Isao-san. Apologies for the wait, but I just had to do a little check in on the Student Council before leaving. We need to start preparing for the Sakura festival," She said, words coated in eagerness.

"Well, get your butt inside and you can tell me all about it," Isao said as he threw the door open to usher her inside. The doorbell jingled as they entered into a single room affair with a counter and a kitchen beyond. There were tables throughout, fit for two to four people at a time. He walked up to the cashier, a man who was reading a newspaper. Behind him there was a display with the menu with a wide assortment of ramen options with a few appetizers, though it was a decidedly ramen based menu. He regarded it and pointed up to the spicy seafood ramen bowl and then looked back to Tsuki. "What'cha having...?"

She raised an eye at her friends choice of words but said nothing as she scooted inside and out of the dreary weather. As isao went to put in their order, Tsuki settled into her seat of the table they would be sharing. She didn't even hesitate in her answer to Isao as he asked her, as if somehow there could be any answer but one. "Tonkatsu, with an extra egg!" She called out to Isao with a smile.

Once their orders were in he made his way to the table she had selected.
Isao wore a grin, the look entirely mischievous, as he sat down with her. The Crane brushed back hair out of his face with one hand and then adjusted his glasses before he asked, "So, how was Club Day for you...? I joined the Iaido, Kendo, Kyudo, Build Fighter, and Matchmaker Clubs," he explained as he leaned back a bit, throwing an arm over the back of his bench seat. "It was fun to meet new people and learn about some new things, like Build Fighters."

Tsuki smiled as she adjusted her own seat, pulling it a bit closer to the table. Adjusting her skirt slightly, she looked to Isao and nodded as he listed off his clubs. "Well, I joined the Gardening and Taryu-Jiai club, and I received an email this morning that says I will be the president this year for Student council," Tsuki replied to the Crane.
"Otherwise, it was very busy. Between helping set up things for the day, getting lists in to see who is joining what, and then helping out with some of the organization, it was a tad busy," she quickly added on.

"It was a good day," Isao agreed with a smile. "Sounds like you're going to keep yourself busy, which isn't a bad thing at all. So, how have classes been going for you since you've started? I'm not sure what you're all taking." He relaxed and began to gently probe her with questions, catching up with her since they last spoke the week before.

"Well, so far I have practiced a few things. Courtly area for certain in a few areas, and I took to the dojo to make sure I am at least physically in shape. My favorite class was Ikebana. There's just something serene about working on arrangement of flowers," She said whimsically, the very idea seeming to evoke a sense of peace to the girl.
"But what about you Isao? I can only guess you have been studying your sword techniques as much as any bushi, but what else?" She smiled at Isao, awaiting his answer.

"Well...
"I took an iaijutsu class, but it was a little below my skill level. I still learned a bit about my strengths, but Doji-sensei made me an assistant.
"I also took a gym class to stay in good shape and even a Bushido class to better understand the more complex, intricate aspects of conflicting tenants.
"I also took etiquette classes and kenjutsu classes to compliment my knowledge on the subjects.
"Then today I took a yoga class and another gym class. I like running and fortunately we've been doing a lot of running in that class."
He had been counting off his hand as he rattled off the classes he had been taking since school had started before the weekend.

Tsuki nodded along as he went over each and every class, giggling slightly at how precise he was on. Not that it was a bad thing to be so organized. "Well, when not classes, what have you been doing in your spare time? Helping friends out with whatever issue comes their way?"
