Shopping (Any Suna-nin)

Mianyi's fingers trail along the cold steel of one of the knives in an almost reverent fashion. Then she turns to Tenoji and smiles slightly. "I do not think knives such as these are meant for sparring. But I will spar with you later, if you wish."

She handles the kukri again and then the strangely curving blades before she seems to have found the right match. "These feel right," she says quietly, but continues to hold them for a little while as if making doubly sure that they are a fit for her. She briefly channels some chakra into their blades, which glow softly with the infusion of chakra before elongating slightly. As quickly as she does this, she ends the technique and then nods. "Yes, this."

With the knives in hand, she heads over to the shopkeeper to pay, haggling briefly before a price is agreed. The man packages them up and Mianyi tucks them into a bag for later. After this transaction, she looks around for Tenoji and Himuwa, smiling in a friendly manner at the two. "So, are we going to spar, or are we going to enjoy the market a little more?"

Tenoji can feel Mianyi's presence now, she's like a completely different being than before. He feels strange now suddenly having seen her channeling chakra into the blades like that, "I know I was the one who brought up the idea, but erm...well...maybe its best we not spar right away, I mean...this is the first time we've met...hmm."

He thinks to himself how pitiful he would look in front of Himuwa if he couldn't hold his own against the girl.

"Is that your ninja way, Tenoji? To tease a spar, not to practice? Even if you lost at least you would be bettering your skills. Also it would only be a friendly spar right Mianyi?" he looks at her "I doubt even I could take on such a skilled shinobi. I will be a judge nd stop the spar if it gets to heated."

He looks at both of them awaiting a response.

Mianyi nods in agreement with Himuwa. "Of course it would be a friendly spar. I said before that such weapons are not meant for use in a spar." She is no fool when in recognizing the potential destructive power of her weapons combined with chakra. It is a tool to be used against foes, not one's own village members.

"But I care not if we spar or not," she says with a light shrug. "It is a pleasant day, it is still cool, and the market is nice." It's really up to Tenoji, as he was the one who suggested it before and Mianyi will not force it one way or the other.

"It is a nice day outside, I'd enjoy walking around more." He hands her a picture he drew of her holding the weapons.

Himuwa looks at his teammate and looks down and shakes his head. Then he pops a grin, he was just giving his teammate a hard time.

"I will follow wherever you all want to go"

"Oh!" Mianyi says in surprise as Tenoji suddenly hands her a hand-drawn picture. "Oh, that's lovely. Thank you!" She studies it and then carefully tucks it away so it doesn't get damaged. "That's some talent you have."

"Well," she says quietly as they try to figure out where to go next, "I heard there was a sale on pastries in the north market."

"Pastries....hmm." Tenoji follows the young girl to the shop and they sit down eating the delicious food, a Sunagakure specialty. As the three sit and chat, he asks, "How did you feel winning the Kusagakure Tournament, I heard it was a challenge."

"I forgot I have some training I should get done, it is getting late after all. It was very nice meeting you, I will see you around."

Himuwa starts walking the opposite direction.

"Nice to meet you too!" Mianyi calls after Himuwa, offering a friendly wave of departure.

Mianyi takes a bite of her pastry while Tenoji is talking, chewing and savoring it for a moment before answering. "I didn't quite believe it happened at first. It didn't seem possible. The first fight was really hard, that genin from Kusagakure…brrr, she was something. And fighting against Tonou wasn't easy, either… I'm not sure why he gave up like that." She takes a little nibble of pastry. "It doesn't seem like something that happened, like it's something I could do. Now I feel like I have to live up to something I shouldn't have been able to do." Mianyi clearly has very little ego going on here.

"Hmm, but still its impressive to say the least...everyone has been going around talking about how the girl from Suna brought the village a great honor."

"If your ever interested, Himuwa and I would be glad to have you tag along for a mission in the future. It would be an honor to witness your ability first hand."

Mianyi blushes at the compliments and looks down at her pastry, unsure of what to say in response to that. Luckily he mentions going on a mission, which is something that Mianyi can respond to easily. She looks up from her pastry and smiles. "I would not mind going on a mission with you."

OOC just PM me or tag me

"Really?! Thats great to hear!" Tenoji is happy to have befriended her, a strong ally.

"It's getting late, I should head out. It was nice meeting you Mianyi" He gets up from the table and begins making his way home, leaving a paper origami bird that he made from the pastry wrapping.
