"I didn't think the racing was optional, was it?"

"Fun? Hm...I like to shoot things. Oh and I like any kind of performing art. Singing is nice, I do that from time to time although my role hasn't needed singing yet. Maybe one day....what about Seppun-sama? What do you do for fun?" Nara asked curiously.

The Moshi smiled. "Unless you are allergic to feathers or birds. I doubt that the Phoenix would make someone like that approach birds."

"I also kind of took up shooting," he says with a chuckle. "I passed a basic proficiency course while transport was being arranged from Tetsugasa. I was on the station for almost two weeks and got to know one of the instructors there. He got me into a 3 day course. I enjoyed myself during that, so I do hope to learn a bit more about hojutsu in the future."

"A navigator?" Atsumori sat up a bit straighter. "Just like my sister! It's a serious lot of work, isn't it?"

"Oh, impressive! To pick up firearms so quickly, Seppun-sama is very talented! I'll have to let you know when I go to the firing range, then you can tell your friends you were practicing with the Demon hunter herself!" Nara giggled "the rifle I used on the show is my own actual rifle you know. I have it with me at this miai."

"Especially for one who hasn't been off the planet." she nodded. "But, it's exciting to consider the possibilities."

"So I may get to meet Tenshi too?" he asks with a smile.

Nara laughed.

"I see, you just want to meet Tenshi. Not even that excited about meeting Mia! Hai, you get to meet Tenshi, however the rifle doesn't really speak to just anyone. You have to be a demon hunter. I'm sure however you'll be able to see him."

"Meeting the team that takes out those demons and seeing them work together sounds like a good time," he says with a chuckle. "But Tenshi can't really do what he does with Mia. He could just be sitting on a weapon rack by himself and she'd still be able to fight. Doesn't work the other way around."

"By the lore he would be stuck in the demon realm until one who had the inner strength and courage to face this world passed by one of the sacred places" Nara explained with a nod "but hai, he'd be thumb twiddling. Or bullet twiddling I guess?"

"Good thing he's got you to help him out," Michiya says with a nod. "Do you have any other shows or projects that you are considering or looking at right now?"

"What, they don't take you out for a spin when they start teaching you?" Atsumori gave her a curious look. "What if you spent years and years training, and then it turned out you got space-sick out there?"

"They screened and tested me thoroughly." she shrugged. "Most of my studies have been basic preparation with the Osprey, so far. The real training will be out there, however."

"My sister wanted to do it ever since we were kids. Guess it takes that kind of spirit if you spend that long training." Atsumori made a large bite of rice disappear. "I'd rather be planetside, me. But it takes all kinds. And of course, I'm not a priest." He chuckled. "Two Shiba priests in one family? That would be a bit much. People would start wondering."

She nodded. "My sister isn't, and we're twins. As for the training, it probably doesn't take as long on other worlds. But, I didn't want to leave until I had to."

"You like it that much here?" he asked between mouthfuls. "What's the best thing about it?"

"My family." she answered simply. "I do like the natural wonders Asakaze holds, but that is more my sisters domain then mine."

"Oh, I guess that makes sense then." Funny, now that he thought about it Atsumori had never been terribly worried about leaving his family behind on Joudo. They'd still be there when he got back. "Well, even if you go someplace else, you can still keep in touch, with the 'net and all. I made loads of holo recordings for my family while I was on Old Rokugan."

"Oh? What was that like?" she asked with eager curiosity.
