𝟶𝟶𝟷 : 𝙳𝙴𝚂𝙸𝚁𝙴-𝙻𝙴𝙱𝙴𝙰𝚄, 𝙲𝙴𝙻𝙴𝚂𝚃𝙸𝙽.
an ever-present smile is splayed on charming, young features. and when he moves, the trained eye could spot that cat-like grace / how light his footsteps are — he would make a beautiful assassin, no? however, he goes to the scion’s side, puts a gentle palm to his bicep ; a kind gesture, one insinuating that he means no harm. he is trying to enchant the man into some form of comfortability — or perhaps, to make the shimada heir more tense.
he leans in now, lips barely grazing the other man’s ear ; “i wish to speak to you on the subject involving an enemy to the world.” and then pulls away, that smile still on his face — as if he never said those words at all.
“will you show me around, please?” lashes raise, blue eyes wandering around / innocently. fingers grasp on the scion’s bicep. “i hear that hanamura is one of the most beautiful places in japan.”
AS THE GAP BETWEEN THEM CLOSES, hanzo stands stalwart against the other man’s attempts at seeking comfortability. this was clearly meant to be a business interaction and yet he feels as if they are caught in a game of cat and mouse. who is who, has yet to be revealed. the mention of an enemy garners a shift in facial expression. before sojiro had passed, he spoke of an enemy that sought their affiliation, likely looking to obtain their resources and power. they were not the first, certainly not the last, but their persistence in the matter proved to be more threat than anything.
intrigue flashes in his gaze. this man knows more than any assassin sent to kill him and his own. someone of great power, disguised as a friend. hanzo relaxes his shoulders, gestures ahead of him, as if giving into the request for a tour of shimada castle. it is not often they welcome strangers into their home, but for the rare occasions, such as this, rules are bent.
“ you are mistaken, hanamura is arguably the most beautiful of all japan. for centuries, many have travelled to bask in it’s beauty and artistry. and for centuries, many have been turned away. we keep what is ours away from the world. but plenty have sought to make it theirs. ”
they are guided into an empty garden, free from prying gaze and listening ears. “ if this enemy you speak of is who i believe, they too have sought to own it. to control us. my father denied their many offer, and i hope to honor his wishes. ”
