After helping fix up the pub Kenshin went looking for a tailor. "I can't show up with my shirt all bloody and torn up like this." Kenshin walked into one and two women almost tackled him trying to get his attention. "Can either of you fix this and get the blood out." Before even speaking one started to take his shirt off. While Kenshin waited he bandaged himself up. One of the women started to talk to Kenshin after he was done bandaging himself.
"Hey, weren't you that Sacaeran that was in the fight down the street?" Kenshin looked at her. "Yea I was, apparently somebody had started to spread rumors about me around there and somebody thought he would kill me." "Oh that's horrible. But why do you want that shirt looking nice, we've got allot of stuff that's better then them old rags." "Because I rather look like the Sacaean that I am. To me everything else in here is rags." The lady was upset that he would call their fine work rags. She then got her partner to hurry up and return the shirt so he could leave. He paid them and left without saying a word.
He made his way back to the inn and see Katara waiting for him. "She's breathtakeing like that. She seems out of my league now." Kenshin walked over to Katara pretending not to know her. "Um excuse me mam, have you seen a beautiful young woman named Katara around here?"

Katara laughed. "Kenshin, I know you know it's me," she said, "you look quite fine yourself," she added.
She spun around once in the dress. "Do you like it? It was my mother's. He mother had made it for her wedding. It's a traditional Sacaen dress. My sister disn't like these kinds of things, so she gave it to me," she told Kenshin.
"So, where are we going tonight, my fine young warrior?" Katara asked, wrapping her arm around Kenshin's.

"How do I look fine? I only had my shirt cleaned and fixed, now you do look wonderfull. But I prefer you without the makeup. You're very fond of your mother aren't you." Kenshin smiled at Katara "We're going anywhere you would like."

"It's only a bit around the eyes," Katara said, touching her makeup,"hmm... I saw a small resurant down the road, if you want to go there," then she added, "you look good. Simple, yet handsome looks good on you."

"But even a little make up is still wearing it. If you really want to go there then I'd love to. Being anywhere with you is all I'm wanting right now. Also where's your room, I don't want to bring my sword with me so I was just going to leave it in your room."
ooC: 0 skill... cool? Also just RP me going up there and comeing back down and us going there please.

"It's the last one on the left, number 24." Katara said. Kenshin ran up to her room and then came back down. "ready," she asked, smiling.
OoC: I swore i put 12... I'll fix it.

"As ready as I'll ever be." Kenshin walked over to Katara and started to hold her hand as they started to walk towards the restarant. After a little bit of waiting the two were seatted. "I know said today would be the last time we really get to rest and enjoy ourself, but on our way to Sceae do you want to stop by your home to see everybody one last time?"

"That'd be nice... Just to make sure everyone's okay..." Katara smiled. "What about your family? You told me about your village. I know Matis is your cousin, but did you have any brothers or sisters?" Katara asked She was nervous, she knew this was a touchy subject. She had never really herd Kenshin talk about his family at all.

Kenshin's head dropped and he looked away when Katara asked that. He was ok talking about what happened, and how he was raised but he didn't like talking about his family. "As much as everybody respected my dad was truely an ass. Since I was an only child I was forced to take his place. Like I said I went with him when he did his things with other tribes, I rather stayed back and played with the other kids but he made me go. He would hit me if I ever talked back or did something wrong."
"Remember how I was so cold when we first met, like I got onto you and Sokka for being happy when you two reunited. I get like that sometimes because I picked it up from him."
Kenshin looked into Katara's eyes. "But I don't have to put up to that anymore, and I get to spend time with you."

Katara frowned. "I'm sorry I asked... I never knew..." she said. "It must have been hard... hard to keep going on and be pleasant after all that," she said. The waitress came, breaking the anguished mood. "How are we tonight? What'll it be?" she aked cheerfully. "I...I'll have the lentil soup, please..." Katara answered. "And you sir?" the waitress asked Kenshin. Katara saw him looking into her eyes, and she smiled at him.

"I think I'll have the same." Kenshin replied. "Okay" said the waitress said and was off in a hurry to put in the order.
"Don't be sorry for asking, if we're going to spend time together like this it would be better to get to know each other. I would hate to start to date somebody then a while after we start dateing I learn they are crazy." Kenshin looked away.
"To be honest I don't know what I'm going to do after all of this is done and over with. I might find a new home, I might just wonder around protecting the ones who need it. Since I don't have a home to return to like most people I'm just not sure what to do."
OoC:I'm not going to be able to reply till I get off of work tommorrow(tuesday) night.

"Well...When this is done, I'll be there, hopefully. And I'm sure there will be plenty to do in the aftermath. There'll still be alot of loos bandit troopes to put an end to." Katara said, "But settling down peacfully is always a good option," she smiled.

"What do you mean hopefully? I might just 'disappear' for a while afterwards before I fully desided what I'm going to do. Maybe I'll be alone, maybe I'll bring somebody special with me." Kenshin shruged.

"Sorry, what I meant was well, anything can happen. And even if you "disappear" I'd search for you until you returned," Katara said. Their food came after a while, along with the friendly waitress. "This is from the manager," she said, "he loves to see young love!" she finished, pouring them glasses of red wine. "Um... Tell him thanks." Katara said, slightly shocked.

Kenshin gave the waitress a fake smile as he did a little fake laugh. "Sorry I don't drink, never liked the taste of wine." Kenshin looked over towards Katara. "Don't be afread to drink it since I'm not, do as you please."
