He won't have the chance, the Raven snapped in response.

There was a sense of Karasu laughing at Hadananzi, a deep and mirthful sound.

Maybe he won't, but someone... time isn't on your side, friend. Enjoy whatever it is you're planning to do to your shiny one. It won't last.

I'm am flying toward it eagerly. Ningen-do hasn't always won these little scuffles. Your winning streak will break soon enough. Even if I'm killed, I will only return to Jigoku and then return to ruffle those lovely feathers once more. It looked toward Nanzi after he spoke. Truly a man after my own...

Oh please. You didn't drink enough to blame it on that. Mortals and their self-deception, I suppose. Though you are a bit more than merely that now, aren't you? I suppose imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. The Raven shook its feathers and preened a moment. It was worth a try. You've grown...

Of course. With our past, you'd know a great deal about my tastes, yes? I wonder how long these mortals can keep up that pace? So, what is your strategy this time? Sheer numbers? You mentioned more than one Thunder. Ugh, one time and you never shut up about it, I swear your new pet has made it wors...

It will grow powerful. There's time, ever so much time, it replied, an unsettling pleasure in its voice as it spoke. If I recall correctly, your people almost failed the first time we fought, saved only by that city's defenses. And the next time, the Kenku were little more than a meat shield betwee...

If you don't play by the rules, you're playing a different game. I want to win the game we're playing, the Raven replied airily, visibly unconcerned. Nothing much. Sharing a name and a little blood to seal it is together. A small price to pay, don't you think? There was a long 'silence' as Karasu c...

I see no reason not to use my advantages where I can find them, old friend, it replied, the term mocking. It's a basic tactical principal. You should be pleased, anyway. I've helped this expedition. I even kept one of your precious Thunders safe. You were always a stickler for the rules. Killing a ...

Well well well... What do we have here? The raven didn't let Nanzi in on these thoughts, directing them at the crow across from him. If Ravens could smirk, he would have, and Karasu certainly got that impression mentally. Physically he fluttered over to settle on Nanzi's shoulder. The crow shook hi...

Karasu also noticed the large raven, and if a crow could narrow its eyes to the point of non-existence, oh how narrow his eyes would be.

You cannot be serious right now...

Karasu stared at Sora, the bird's expression somehow conveying how seriously it took this statement.

"Caw?"

Karasu cawed in affirmation.

Karasu lands immediately on Yamadono's shoulder, fixes him with a knowing stare, and nods approvingly.

Karasu suddenly let out an alarmed caw and backpedaled in the air in confusion, looking around rapidly. After a few moments he dropped to the ground, hopped about, then let out a loud caw to sound off his position.

Karasu makes a quick sweeping pass, stealing every reference to rice on the way, before making his exit, cackling like a grackle.

Karasu tapped the ground twice then took up a position on Phi's shoulder.

The crow flitted from one side of the tent to the other, as if he were anxious, but then walked backwards, spun around several times, and hopped about with a distinct rhythm.

When he was finished, he turned and pointed to the west, and stayed that way.

Karasu leapt to the ground, pecked a hole, dropped in an plum pit, then returned to Taochusu's hand with an affirmative caw.

The crow bobbed once and cawed, then jerked his head towards the tent where a large pile of plum pits sat in a neat little stack.

Satone was on her way to the cave, but before she made it there, the sight of the crow flying overhead caught her attention. She watched it until it landed next to her. "Hello, crow. Having a good flight? I wish I could join you." She smiles at the bird, and then noticing it isn't blinking, she tak...
