It was a very nice day in Japan. Not beautiful, there was a bit of wind and juuust enough clouds to cross that boundary from idyllic to just plain cloudy without being so dense that they blanketed the sky. As such it was a fine enough day to do some shopping, and still fair enough weather for a little outdoor fun. Which was why Takara and her ward Miruka had headed from their home for exactly that. While Takara would see about picking up a few things for dinner the next few days, Miruka was given free reign to go run about in the nearby park. Not unusual for kids to have plenty of independence in Japan.
Granted they weren't usually dressed up in so intricate a gothic lolita dress. She was humming as she pranced down the path past the trees. She didn't pay any mind to the people around her, none of them could see the spirits and that meant they were beneath her anyways. What she needed to do was find a nice, quiet shaded corner to try and contact the spirit world again! Failing that, a nice quiet corner would let her feel out and see if there were any ghosts just naturally nearby, or even someone else with the same Sight as herself and big sis Takara!
As she headed off the park path though she'd notice something without needing to stop. There was something odd nearby, not a ghost or a Seeing person, but something...else. Her head tilted curiously as she looked in its direction before heading that way. Miruka had a keen sense for the spiritual and if she was close enough, she could easily pick up on even a small lingering trace. Maybe it would lead her to a Shinigami!
Meanwhile at the street of small local shops, Takara was doing as she always did. Cheerfully chatting with the locals. She'd been here long enough that they were finally starting to warm up and cease being so intimidated by her incredible height. Some garlic, some onions, a few assorted seasonings, some fish and stock. She had tonight's dinner all planned out. Fish and pilaf. Tomorrow she was thinking of attempting an american style 'fried steak'. Fried foods weren't good to eat too often but they could be pretty fun when not overused!
Occasionally her gaze would shift towards the park Miruka was playing in. Really she wasn't worried about the girl she was guardian of. In fact her small concerns were more for anyone that might try to start something with her. Still things were fine, she'd go get the girl after she finished her shopping.
