[ Maika adapts easily, and although she is still quite confused, she goes with it. She might not be in Reversed Kyoto any more, and she really should be there, but she decides that she will not worry too much at the moment. She will try to get back later.

For now, the shirabyoshi dancing shikigami spirit rigs up her device, press the record button, and bows politely to whoever may be watching, with a soft smile on her face. ]

Good afternoon, my name is Maika, and I'm a geisha of Yumezato in Kyoto. It is a pleasure to make your aquaintance. It has been a long time since I was in a new town, but I hope to learn my way around as soon as possible.

If I may ask, would a geisha be of use anywhere? Are there any place for an entertainer of the more traditional kind?

He-Hello. Um... I'm Chihiro Fujisaki and I can't say that I know of any place, but people are always free to make there own business or do jobs that they would have done in there own world.

I-If that helps you any.

Good day, Fujisaki-san. Oh yes, it is very helpful, it is something that I can keep in mind. Thank you very much.

A geisha, huh? Is it okay to ask what exactly that is?

[he's never come across one before, so he is really curious.]

Of course it is, danna.

[ She's used to explaining the real workings of geisha to ignorant foreigners, so it's oddly refreshing not to have to convince someone of their image being wrong, while explaining what is real. ]

The word means artist, and we're traditional Japanese entertainers, trained in dancing, singing, playing instruments, tea serving and entertaining people with these, as well as conversational, skills. However, I am afraid that I am currently not dressed for the part.

That's fine. [He wondered if geishas were something that was in Kurogane's world. It was an interesting though and also the whole what they were was simply fascinating.]

So you are an artist. I would like to see that someday.

I-I'm sure there is something you can do. I am sure there are people who would like to see a... geisha was it? I can't say I know what it is to know what would be out there.

Thank you, I appreciate that you think so. A geisha is a traditional entertainer, and hopefully, there are use of entertainers somewhere here.

[gullwingsgunner]

There is always a use for entertainers out here. I mean when the bad does come around, it's people who can make us smile that helps us through it. At least this is how I see it.

Greetings, Maika. I am Satsuki Kiryuin from Honno City, Japan.

[A geisha, is she? Satsuki's familiar with the job and has a not-so-secret appreciation for the traditional, so that's rather interesting for her.]

You may want to consider locating the Genessia Center Arts Theatre if that is case- But I am afraid the demand for one of your expertise is not as great as where you originally hail from.

I presume you are currently at The Bay?

[revversed]

It is a pleasure, Kiryuin-san.

[ Maika would gladly talk about it with her, if she so wants to. ]

I was afraid of that, as it is a life that not many are drawn to these days. Thank you, I am very grateful for the information, and will pay it a visit.

I do believe that is what this place is called, yes.

[weavemyownfate]

Well, I would not say it is the fault of time-passing that is completely at fault; for example I am particularly appreciative of traditional arts.. It is more that the denizens hail from various countries from various times so I would say that it is more 'niche'.

.. I suppose that is getting into semantics, however.

[There's a moments pause as she considers her location.]

Also, I am wondering if you have been contacted by any familiar faces yet. Some have been lucky enough to gain such an opportunity.

A geisha, hm? It's nice to see people embracing the traditional roles.

I am Kurosawa, Sen. A pleasure to meet you.

[The false name rolled off the tongue very easily, these days.]

[revversed]

Indeed it is, and I very much enjoy the life.

[ She does worry about Ayame-chan, of course, but the girl certainly brightens up every day. ]

Likewise to you, Kurosawa-san, it is a pleasure.
