[ Okay, maybe leaning again ( there is a reason Renae gives them a wide berth muttering my parents are overgrown teenagers, wtf with much affection before he bounces off to his room ) for just one... okay, just a little bit more before she breaks off and presses her face into his chest with a smile.
She is totally, totally fine with this.
Pulling back and pouring herself a second helping, and then seamlessly topping off a glass for Cen. ] They need someone to teach the newbies, and then Kalika needs company especially after... [ she trails off and glances up at her husband with a Look ] and uh, something about wanting Kasumi to stick to Japan.
[ Frowning now. Wait. Now that she comes to think on it -- what did he mean by that? ]
[ Looking into her own glass and thinming on that before she takes a sip. ] Apparently?
[ A quirk of the brow as she recalls a bunch of the novices mentioning how they'd been at the Hall when Zangyaku's leading lady had come by for a quick visit.
[ Folding her legs under her on the chair now and running an idle hand through her hair as she thinks this through. Tongue in cheek because, yeah. Perfect point there, Profaci.
And because-- ] Did you notice anything weird while we were in Tokyo?

Before that, though: wine.]
You mean Kasumi was thinking of not being in Japan?

Not voicing it yet, because thinking.
It is written all over her face though. ]
