[D1 LA] Imperial Welcome

[Miya Akari]

"Currently it's all very open and untamed, so if wild landscapes are what you are after then there are plenty to be found," she says with a smile.

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Nice to know... I am going to be doing the explored territories for now and later on the more untamed that is if allowed." She nodded.

[Miya Akari]

"Nothing is really off limits, there are simply places that are unsafe to be alone," Akari offers. "And as I said before, if I am available I am happy to accompany. I definitely would like to spend more time with you, particularly if I get to watch you paint. We could use some artistic pieces to liven up the inn."

She smiled at that.

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Ah... yes..." The Doji nodded "I will be honored." She sipped her tea. "I think I will start at the beach."

[Miya Akari]

"It really is lovely. Though certainly not as colorful as your gardens, it has a natural charm and beauty that I enjoy a great deal."

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"I think the beach can inspire the same way my gardens can inspire." She shrugged.

[Miya Akari]

"I hope it does, Doji-san. I would be glad to see what works you create when inspired."

Because this conversation isn't very inspirational to you, she thinks, in response to the shrug.

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Are there many insects at night?" So used to be lulled to sleep with such sweet lullabies that this sound so odd...

[Miya Akari]

"A fair amount, but it isn't bad inside the Inn. It's got sturdy walls. Bugs get in of course, but the sounds of them from the forest is mostly drowned out by the ocean where we're located."

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Has any one set camp on the beach or the forest?" She wondered if she could do such odd thing. Even if there is a lovely inn the lull of the beach water or the lull of the plants and insects, would probably help her sleep a bit better.

[Miya Akari]

"I've slept on the beach by a campfire and nothing more. It's nice to fall asleep to the night sky. Beautiful." She seems wistful and pleased with the memory she seemed to be recalling.

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"It is a lovely sight only the rumble of the ebb and flow of the waves." The Doji smiled. "I remember camping out. It was interesting experience."

[Miya Akari]

"I enjoy it a great deal. I'll likely camp out regularly if you want to join me," she offers.

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Excellent... I would love to." She nodded. "I doubt we be going any where?"

[Miya Akari]

"Just right nearby on the beach. Not far. When a good night for it happens we can meet out there," she said. "When it's less humid there should be fewer bugs, and smoke from the fire will keep them away."

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Yes..." She nodded. "I know some things that might also keep the bugs away."

[Miya Akari]

"Oh? Some gardeners tricks to protect their work from pests?"

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"Yes..." She smiled "Besides spiders and ladybugs."

[Miya Akari]

"I imagine spiders are relatively useful in a garden?" she asks.

[Doji Hanatsuko]

"They capture fruit flies and some insects that eat the plants." The girl explained.
