Kazuki was trying to busy himself with folding the laundry. He harvested fresh towels from the towel bush while the dirty ones simply disintegrated after a day or two. It was weird, but he quickly learned never to question the unique vegetation of this region.

Once all the new towels were folded, he carried out a set to his lone guest. Like all his other visitors, he had to focus away from the fact that they were naked. It was significantly harder when it was this particular person. He cleared his throat softly, hoping he wasn't disturbing her.

He bowed his head and put the towels on a bench. "I hope you're enjoying your soak, Blink-san."

Kazuki's cough came through as barely a muffled sound, but stood out enough that Blink slowly sat up, her hair heavy and slicked back, sticking to her neck where her skin was above water. Blinking a few times, she cleared the mist from her eyes and smiled. "I... yes. Thank you, Kazuki..." Her lips pursed when he said her name, and she stopped herself from giggling. "You don't have to be so formal with me, Kazuki. You can call me Clarice, it's okay." She lifted herself further out of the water, but still 'decent,' between the swirling surface of the water, and the steam that hovered just above it.

"I probably should get out soon... I mean, I don't want to prune up..." Her voice carried no conviction. She felt almost like she should sink to the bottom of the spring, and see how long she could stay down there before either coming up or... don't even go there, girl. "But not yet." She leaned her head back, letting her hair start to drift in the water again. "You..." She stopped, then sat back up, turning around to fully face him. "...you ( ... )

"NO! No no no no!" Kazuki put his hands up almost instantly. "I may be a lot of things, but disrespectful... Okay, I can be that too. But never to a lady." He sat down, but made sure his back was turned to his nude guest. It allowed Blink to see something that very few have ever seen before:

His curly boar tail. It was hiding just underneath his fiery red clothing.

"You name is Clarice? Why do call yourself Blink sometimes?" The ninja asked, curious as to why she would hide her identity.

Blink smiled even more, her spirits boosting, if only for the moment. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to tease you like that. It's just... cute. Reminds me of someone back home." She reached for the towel and wrapped it around herself, folding it over her chest to spare Kazuki further embarrassment. She kept staring, at him, noticing the tail that poked out. Allowing herself a quiet chuckle at how... adorable? Sure, adorable, why not? "It's safe now ( ... )
