Tengen Uzui

Tengen had been travelling alone for a number of days. When he came across an inn along his route, he was more than happy to stop and take some time to relax. He had spent the afternoon lounging about, his eyes following the innkeeper's eldest as the needs of the various guests were tended to. His eyes lingered when they shouldn't, and Tengen began to wonder to himself whether he felt like adding a new face to his polycule. Later that evening, he was relaxing in the inn's outdoor bath, resting easy in the hot water while the sounds of liveliness drifted from inside. He watched through the steam as he heard footsteps approaching, and when he saw who it was he realised he had already made his mind up, "Hey, c'mere," he called, his slight grin growing as he beckoned with his hand.
