Sitting in the common area, the Kitsuki is intently working on his knots with a bit of rope. He speaks quietly to himself as he does so, as if reciting something from memory...

"The little brown eel comes out of the cave... Swims into the hole... Comes out of the hole... Goes back into the cave again..."

Getting into a routine was good distraction.

The Asahina kind of stumbles in when the boat hits a larger wave, but places a hand on the wall to maintain balance. She looks up to see a Kitsuki tying knots as she wanders about the ship and decides it's a good time to enhance her sailing education further.

"Good afternoon Kitsuki-sama," she says with a bow, having recovered her balance.

At the greeting, Kotsu looks up, pulling his current knot loose as her does. His odd eyes look for a mon, having already identifying the Crane by her colors. He offers a polite bow as well.

"Afternoon, Crane-sama. How are you today?"

"I am doing well," Narumi replies.

She looks as the knot comes apart in the man's hands, and smiles an awkward apologetic smile. "I apologize for distracting you Kitsuki-sama. I am Asahina Narumi."

Kotsu smiles at the mention of the knot.

"Oh It's not ruined, Asahina-sama. Merely doing it was supposed to do. And you are hardly a distraction."

She smiled at the dismissal, "It was supposed to do that? Would it be burdensome if I asked you to teach me? I've been having a difficult time with all of the new things and more practice could do wonders." She makes the request of the Dragon with hope and possibly a bit of excitement in her voice.

Zenko pokes his head in briefly to the crew quarters, seeking solace from the ever expansive sea. If I didn't know that the Captain knew better, I'd think we were just standing still, and the water'd be flowing past us like a great big river.

He dwells in his own thoughts for awhile, heading towards a place to sit, before he looks up and bows to those already present. "Oh! Hello!"

The Asahina turns and bows to the new arrival with his entry. "Good afternoon Usagi-san." The greeting is accompanied by a bow.

"Not at all, Asahina-sama. We are all members of the Legion and i would be remiss if I didn't share what I know about knots."

At the entrance of the Hare, the Kitsuki offers the man a bow.

"Afternoon, Usagi-san."

The priestess steps closer and finds a seat, looking at the knot. She gives a look to the Usagi to see if he was similarly interested in practicing knot tying but otherwise paid attention to her knot-sensei. "What type of knot is this and what would it be used for?"
