Ah, zundamochi is a specialty of ours! It's likely that you thought it was something else completely, due to the coloration...But I think that the vibrant green stimulates the appetite, personally. And naturally, I would hear of all that I have missed as we search together, though this time...Not by smell. I should be able to track down an attendant with slightly more ease.

[His ears are starting to burn red from all that sincerity and encouragement, but he still returns the hand-squeezes before offering one arm. The attendants would likely track him down soon as see him in the crowd, but if not? Kitchens.

...And it's a chance to show off the grounds, the homeland he knows so well.] I would return any news with my own, but...I'm afraid to say that I have just been performing my typical duties for Lord Masamune. You've seen him, I assume; eyepatch, causing a ruckus, possibly wielding six of anything at any given time? That is...He is why I returned, after all. Even with time stopped in the valley, and so many good things...I could not bear holding my lord still when he is so full of life and energy. I could not leave his side for so long.
