To be fair... Lord Yoritomo is dreamy af

What do you expect from his twenty strongest men?

[Shiba Jiro]

Last 5e game, I literally played a Lion that read the Tao in secret...

[Shiba Ichiro]

Tellin' ya, all the Lion do it - they just don't admit it to each other so they think they're the only ones hiding their shame.

Note that this applies to literally everything the Lion disapprove of.

Ikoma must be so disappointed in them!

EDIT: All these Phoenix, not one Asako or Kaito!

So if I theoretically used bits of the tao to help start a cookfire . . . the Lion wouldn't be too upset? In theory . . .

In my experience, the Lion care less about what you do than how you do it.


...

Wait, sorry, that's the Crane.

The Lion don't care what you do, so long as they get to get mad about it and start a fight.

[Nekoma Seto]

Artistically lights the fire . . .


Better?

[Shiba Jiro]

Using the tao to start a fire. Much like the tao itself, the heat it provides can help sustain you. And it also makes for a convenient way to light your pipe.

I see someone analysed my ulterior motive.

[Shiba Jiro]

The tao doesn't say anywhere in it that you shouldn't use it to light a pipe, so this may just be as yet undiscovered wisdom that it is revealing through experimental pursuits of enlightenment.

Or maybe just enjoying a bit of tobacco... or something stronger.

[Shinjo Jingyi]

Like the thrill of the hunt?

[Shiba Jiro]

Hunting with fire? That sounds like a Phoenix style activity.

played a Kaito last 5r game... and there is a Scorpion named Asako... that could count... Shiba and Bayushi are twins right.

*shakes head*

[Kuni Mitsuko]

Oh myyyy

*must not gossip, must not gossip*

*notes something down*

Mitsuko wants to meet both of you. The Crane because she's clearly very studious, like Mitsuko. The Scorpion because her art makes her look like a delightfully productive Crab soldier.

[Nekoma Seto]

Who attacked the Scorps????? They look like they've been through a fight already!

[Shiba Jiro]

Probably some dangerous people. Couldn't be me.

[Kakita Ahiru]

Well dang

It's the picture here from the Winter Court of 1122
