Dawei continues to work.
"The Kami coming has made more room for that, I think. There's been more space to explore possibilities.
"But I know that cannot be all you want to ask me, Kaze-kun."

Kaze considered for a moment as he began to gather sticks to make a travois for the deer--the better to carry their catch back to camp.
"I...wonder. Why did you choose woodcraft when your cousins were devoted to cultivation? It seems...bold, to do what others will not."

"It was a friend, one of the sons of The Seppun, who first showed it to me. Hiro and I played together as boys, and our games would often take us into the woods." He takes some of the sticks, holding them so that Kaze can tie them together more easily. "After spending so much time in them, moving through them became more and more natural. And since the forest's bounty helped feed the Tribe, it became partly my part to bring it in."

"Would...If we were to..." Kaze paused as he formed a knot around some sticks. "I am sorry, perhaps it is too soon to ask the thing I wish to."

"We may not have a 'later,' Kaze-kun. That's always been true, but events...ask it."
Dawei holds other branches in place for more knot-work.

"If we were to make a family, Dawei-kun. And I..." He glanced over to him "...am very much warming to the prospect. But if we were to, would it be a hardship for you or for the Stag clan if you were to come to join me among the Crane? Would you even wish to?"

Re: D11EM, Foraging (Expecting, but Open)
Dawei grunts in surprise.
"It is not a thing I had considered, Kaze-kun. I had always understood that The Seppun would make a determination regarding any...union, or the Lord Hantei after the Tournament. But I had not thought I would not be a Seppun."
He adds another branch. And there are my students, as well, he thinks. I don't know that my teachings could pass to another Clan so easily. And most Crane are not amenable to the way I work, I think.
"So I do not know yet."

Re: D11EM, Foraging (Expecting, but Open)
Kaze swallowed the lump rising in his throat. He couldn't imagine leaving the Lady, and he wasn't entirely surprised that Dawei felt the same way about his people. It wasn't an outright rejection. Perhaps other solutions would need to be considered. His mind began skittering down strange paths.

"Hey, you okay?"
Dawei is still standing, holding the travois.

"I think so. It is the first impediment, and will require some thought." He moves quickly to drag the carcass to their travois. "I suspected there would be difficulty in that question. I would find it very difficult to answer myself."

Dawei nods and stands steadily with the travois as it is loaded.
"It is one of the ways the Kami have made things...more intricate."

"As long as you want me, I will work to find a way for you to have me."
Kaze's certainty creates a weight to his words as he moves to take the travois on his shoulders. "I serve the Lady, but I do not see why I cannot serve the man I love as well. Surely there is room for this in the One Great Tribe Called Empire."

Re: D11EM, Foraging (Expecting, but Open)
Dawei flushes as bright a red as his complexion will allow.
He kisses Kaze's cheek.
"We'll figure it out after. For now," and he shoulders his own pack after pressing jade to the things he's foraged and seeing no response, "let's get these and us back to camp." He grins. "I'll see if I can't keep some of the cane, though."

Kaze's face also reddens after the peck. "Dawei-kun...that sounds like a great idea. I...thank you for letting me come hunt with you."

"Why wouldn't I? You're skilled, quiet, handsome..."
Dawei grins as he trails off and starts heading back to camp.
