Mick merry and laughing gets up and collects his things, his guards stand up beside him and he holds a hand to the Young Lady that decided to seat with him when he first joined the Festival she takes the hand and the Guards help Mick and the Young Lady get through the growing crowd back to his Ship leaving the Kusari Naval Guard to his fate in the crowd!
But not before Mick made his way to Misaki to thank her for a lovely event and passing his neural net details if the GC ever needed the FTP in the future!
All set to leave and undock Mick sets a course back to Bornholm base to return home after a pleasant event!
Mr Ling walked down the Central hall carrying a large case and a grin. It had been nearly a decade since he had been in Kusari space, having an opportunity to visit once when he was a child. The customs fascinated him, and the food and finer things were always top quality. He checks his watch, an ancient piece of technology he'd looted from who-knows-where. "Fastest engines in the west. Hopefully Drake brings the Ale." Looking up, he saw Misaki greeting the guests, and his attention was drawn to the eyepatch. He felt extremely aware of his sunglasses, but he didn't understand why...
He casually fixes his clothes, hoping to draw light attention to the sheer amount of monetary value he was wearing, lights a Cardamine cigar, makes sure his old-age watch was visible on his wrist, and steps up to his first duty at any festivity:Locate the alcohol.

The Festival
Yoshigahara was sitting at the counter, with one glass of pure liquid in one hand, head resting on the other. It was more of her duty than her will to be here, since the last attempt was quite interesting and dangerous. With a deep sigh she turned to the crowd and entrance, observing visitors of friends and allies gathering here, talking, mumbling, drinking and playing games. She recognised some of her fellow sisters, but she has decided not to interrupt right now. But something caught her attention, it was the man at the entrance. Black glasses, fine suit and something strange on his hand. Must be one of the Hackers, Junkers usually don't wear such expensive clothing and Rogues usually according to her didn't bother with clothes at all.
This time however, she tried to make an eye contact with Hacker, to make a bit more stronger impression, she also took a sip of the liquid in her glass.
As he gathers his bearings, and makes his courtesy introductions, Ling begins his search for where the finest drinks might be found. Low profile being his specialty, he slinks through the crowd a while before a glint catches his eye. A glass with liquid, telltale signs of something to drink. Upon a further glance, Ling noticed the glass had an owner who was glancing back. An expression of... was that boredom? At a party? In the presence not only good Cardamine, but also good drink? This can only mean one thing.
Showtime, Ling.
Striding up to the counter next to the young lady, Ling finally had an excuse for his carefree attitude over being Kusari once again. Setting he case down, and leaning his back against the counter, he asked: "So, mind telling me what you're sipping on?"

The Festival
Yoshigahara was observing the approaching man, obviously it was something she wanted, social interaction, instead of just sitting and and guarding the party. Her expression however remained careless as the Hacker found his place beside her, his question however could be answered in so many ways, but this time she wanted to be herself.
"Question is how much do you trust me? What if I would say it's just a glass of water? She definitely wanted to see if he believes her words or will stand ready with typical Hacker behaviour.
Ling couldn't help but smile. She had rolled cute, smart, and attitude into one package, a master at the game he so loved to play. He relaxed a little, knowing that the Sisterhood was very much capable of refinement, unlike the parties behind other events he had attended.
"Water doesn't make for an interesting celebration, now, does it?" He nodded to the bartender. "And besides, I doubt your staffing would believe me if I said 'I'll have a water, too'."

The Festival
Yoshigahara has to also grin as she accepted the challenge provided by Hacker's answers. She hoped he wouldn't back off as soon as he moved into offensive. She mirrored his movement and leaned back as well.
"Water doesn't, that's true. But what if I am not here for the fun and celebrations, but as the keeper of silence and peace? Shortly a guard? Have you got an answer to this one?" She raised her glass and pretended she was examining it for a second, then she gave a look to bartender and signaled for two more glasses.
He didn't laugh, even though he wanted to. The thought of a relationship dynamic with one Chrysanthemum cleaning up after all of the other's colorful personalities was entertaining, to say the least.
"Silence and celebration tend to clash, don't you think?" He ran a tip from his account to the bartender. "And guard duty in the same room as Junkers is a thankless job. You wouldn't mind a partner for this task, would you?"
Hanako stood silently in her casual black attire, the fire lillies braided neatly into her hair as always, blades upon either hip, seemingly with no other weapons on her person. As a guard her task was to watch over the festival and safeguard it, though she was more interested in safeguarding her sisters specifically, She scanned as far as her eyes would let her, from Hanako & Misaki, over to Yoshi and her accompanying Lane Hacker, currently affixed on Mr. Ling though she says nothing, not her place to interject, just observing and being respectful enough not to eavesdrop.
Hanako spotted the other Hanako which piqued her interest. She was still uncertain how she felt about the woman. Their encounters were brief after all before Hanako 2 decided to bolt the Sisterhood. Sasaki decided to explore that avenue and walked towards the black-clad woman. Might as well kill the boredom she was experiencing at the moment.
"Hanako, long time no see!" she smiled. "Drink?" she gestured with the gin bottle in her hand.
