The Yogo thought a moment. The Phoenix's slightly archaic way of phrasing her question gave her pause before she came up with, 'I haven't seen you around town.'

"Oh, no, I just came to town with the refugees from the Winter Court." she clarified.

"Oh...you attended the Winter Court?" she does her best to keep disbelieving amazement from her tone, she's officially a courtier and all. Besides, her professional interest means not offending the heck out of eyewitnesses to one of the most momentous historical occasions in her lifetime.

The Yogo did not keep the disblief out of her voice.

"Me? The Imperial Winter Court? You're almost as funny as Tani-san, Tomomi-san." she said, with a short laugh.

"No, no. We ending up meeting the refugees on the road, and just kinda got swept into town under the watchful eyes of the Lion. Just bad luck really."

Mom voice apparently had a limited duration on the Yogo.

Theme Song

"Ah, that...makes sense." As much as anything did this week. "What were you doing on the road in the winter, if that's something you can talk about." The interviewer's form holds, even as she doubts there could be anything conversationally off-limits to Aya, expect maybe Scorpion secret ops...which a traipse through the woods in winter might be.

"And, please, Yogo-san, I don't think we've reached the point of given names yet, call me Isawa-san, if you would." Second time in as many days, but she wasn't giving a wild Yogo quite the same leeway as a Naga there.

Aya managed not to roll her eyes like a rebellious teenager.

" I can talk about it, Isawa-san, but Isawa-san has made it clear that Isawa-san does not wish to hear about such things." she said.


There was a small shrug.

"If Isawa-san wishes further conversation instead of sparring, perhaps Isawa-san might share what Isawa-san's duties were this Winter? Or Isawa-san could select another topic if Isawa-san chose to."
