Ishida Mitsunari | Saika Magoichi | 017

[And then he is not where he is supposed to be.

Mitsunari totters for a moment, off-kilter, blinking around him in a befuddled way. Last he remembered he had just received that dratted letter from Ieyasu's men--

But no, now he...

He was in a camp...?

...This was going to be very bad, wasn't it?]

[ Protip: appearing magically in the middle of a fairly reclusive camp of mercenaries was not the best of plans.

Especially when they were the Saika, so instead of swords aimed Mitsunari's way, there were many guns.

All too soon, the cold metal of the muzzles were prodding him forward as he was escorted by a group of very displeased mercenaries. They lead him deeper into the came, only telling him that he got to talk to their 'Boss.'

[ They lead him to an open area with a large wooden platform set in the ground. The image of the Yatagarasu is around them, gleaming gold from green fabric.

One of the men begins to stride toward a recessed door in the hill, but it swings open before he gets there, letting a woman in a man's hakama step out, her eyes sweeping over the gathered group.

Just what are you all atwitter about?

[ At first her voice is powerful, yet there is no particular harshness in it. Her expression hardens, however, when she spots the unfamiliar man they have brought to her.

She listens quietly as one leans over and murmurs the story in her ear, eyes studying him from head to toe.

[ He gets points for that, at least.

His clothes are much too proper for a spy. Either this man is very lost, very stupid, or he is some sort of messenger from someone who does not know how to dress their traveling men.

Magoichi raises her hand and shoos the men back; they give Mitsunari space now. She approaches him herself, bracing her hands on her hips as she lifts her chin to meet his eyes.

Just who might you be?

[ She outright snorts in disbelief. ]

Did you knock your head against something on the way here?
redbelltolls: <lj site="www.livejournal.com" user="lonelygambler"> (Even if you never ever)

[personal profile] redbelltolls 2012-04-12 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
I have been employed by the Toyotomi more than once; I know what Ishida looks like.

[ Though she does note the genuine nature of that surprise. Either he is very good at faking it, or he really did smash his head somewhere. ]

And I yours. So we've got ourselves a bit of a problem here.

[ Well he gets some brownie points for the recognition; she never claimed not to be prideful. ]

Where were you before you found yourself here?
redbelltolls: <lj site="www.livejournal.com" user="lonelygambler"> (She's so particular)

[personal profile] redbelltolls 2012-04-15 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Of Tokugawa's?

[ Magoichi frowns, studying him intently again. ]

If you are Ishida Mitsunari, as you claim, why would you have audience with that man?
redbelltolls: (Missing link on the brink)

[personal profile] redbelltolls 2012-04-15 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
The Ishida I know has little care for courtesy, especially when it concerns his Lord's killer.

[ Magoichi has no love for politics or games, so she speaks it plainly. After all, to her, it is common knowledge, nothing worth keeping secret. ]
redbelltolls: (I been around the world)

[ Magoichi was wondering much the same about him. ]

Only if by 'sickness' you mean 'punched in the skull.'

[ The woman leans forward, amber eyes unflinching as she observes those minute reactions.

Then she lets out a soft 'hmph,' stepping back and waving a hand at him.
]

Have a seat. This seems it might take a while.

[ Then she promptly sits herself on the wood of the platform without bothering to wait for him. Magoichi has perfect confidence in her authority; she does not feel a petty need to assert herself by making sure he kneels first.

Her men relax a bit themselves, going from their straight-backed attention to lounging around the perimeter, though their gazes make it obvious their guard has not truly lowered.

[ This man is so... quaint. It is almost cute.

One had to beware the quiet ones, however.
]

Let us say that there is a possibility you are who you say. Do you have any evidence of this aside from your words?
redbelltolls: (You either wanna be with me)

[personal profile] redbelltolls 2012-04-15 05:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I want to see this invitation.

[ Magoichi holds out her hand, expectant. ]
