Oki rolled her eyes listening to Suoh.
"Su, seriously... Bite me."

Suoh grinned. "Later, Oki! Let's not make a scene..."

Really, there was something about these twins and Ryo couldn't help but laugh at the whole absurdity of the situation. Here they were in the middle of the marketplace, having just caught a would-be purse snatcher, and were not offering to make him a ninja.
He had to let go of Oki, but still couldn't stop grinning. It was pretty cool.

"See Ryo? If they'll make him a ninja, anyone can be. Or maybe his village just has lower standards," Oki mused.

"Definitely lower standards. I don't know how the hell I made it or why they want me to go chuunin."

Ryo had to laugh at that. "I dunno if I'll get that good, but I can try~" He was still a bit uncertain about how well he would take to whatever ninja training they had, but right now shelter and food were outweighing the bad.

Oki grinned. "That's all anyone can ask. You may even surprise yourself."
Oki then thought quietly for a moment. "Now the question is where to put you..."

Suoh smirked at the compliment. At least the kid recognized talent when he saw it, which was something in his favor.
"Somewhere close?" he suggested.

"Hmm, I guess we'll see" Ryo nodded at Oki then shrugged. "I dunno..." He fidgeted a bit, glancing to Suoh at the suggestion. "Whatever is fine." Although he did like the sound of being closer.

Oki nodded, then gestured with her head. "I think I know the place."
She lead them from the heart of the market out towards the fringes. There were offices here, and boarding houses. She jogged up stairs and looked over her shoulder with a smile. "The Academy isn't far from here. You can't get much closer unless you're renting an apartment."

Suoh nodded, stopping at the bottom of the stairs. "Good job, Ok. Go get the boy settled."

Ryo followed behind, wide-eyed and excited. Anything would be better then the places he'd been living for the past. His gaze kept flickering everywhere, taking it all in. Rent an appartment? No way he'd be able to do that...

"Now this is only going to be temporary, Ryo. Once you're formally enrolled, you'll be able to actually get an apartment. This is just for a few days until we can get you all set up," Oki explained, holding the door open for him. She followed him in, her hand resting on his shoulder while she explained the situation to the middle-aged woman who owned the boarding house. Oki made a point of leaving out how she had met Drayke.
The older woman nodded. "Dinner's served at six," she said firmly. "Breakfast at seven. You'll have to keep the room clean while you're here, and you'll be sharing the bathroom at the end of the hall."

Suoh remained outside, picking at his nails. Oki could deal with this, since it was her idea. He was more interested in having an actual lunch once they ditched the kid.

Ryo tried to make a mental checklist of all the things he'd had to keep track of. Starting to feel a little bit overwhelmed again, he hoped that everything would make sense once he got into a routine of sorts.
