"I dunno, I guess..." He turned around in her lap and hugged her tightly, tuck ing his head under her chin. "I met you tho~"

Oki smiled ruefully, remembering that meeting. Suoh still ranted about it, and she had never imagined that after buying the would-be thief ice cream that she'd have him curled up in her lap. Oki hugged him back.
"You might want to try another tactic for getting to know your classmates, love. I don't think they'd appreciate you trying to make off with their stuff, and I don't think there'd be ice cream involved..."

"You seem to have a gnak for meeting teachers," a hawk who had recently perched on a ledge not far from them observed out loud...

He giggled to himself at the memory. "Maybe, but I haven't stolen anything since you told me not to!" By sheer force of will sometimes, but he did manage.
Ryo's head swung look at the voice. He blinked at the bird curiously, not relinquishing his hold on Oki. "I do?"

Oki's head turned quuickly to the sound of the new voice and she coloured instantly. She really probably shouldn't be cuddling Ryo like this, and she knew it, and now she had been caught in the act.
"Good morning, Ikihane," she tired to sound nonchalant.

"A teacher for taijutsu and chakra control, and a seperate one for chakra usage from what I've heard," the hawk commented.
"Good morning to you as well, Oki," Ikihane said with a little bow, taking account of her blush, but it didn't show in his black eyes. "Should I return at a later time when you are not so busy?"

A light bulb went off in Ryo's mind. "You mean Oki and Yuki?" He frowned, feeling a little uncertain. "Shouldn't I?"
He glanced up at Oki, seeing the blush and hugging her. Why was she so red?

Oki hugged Ryo back, not taking her eyes off the hawk. "No, it's fine Ikihane. What can I do for you?"
She didn't bother to try and explain why she was cuddled up with a student like this. The explanation of "I was just helping Ryo with his reading!" seemed trite, and more of an excuse.

Ikihane gave a little grin. "No, I believe you have found the best two possible teachers for what it is you want to learn, as long as you're willing to continue on with that training, especially when it gets hard... When it feels like you're ready to just fall over - you keep going..." Ikihane looked at Oki, knowing she understood exactly what he meant - Yuki was apt to put this younger boy through the exact same style of training that he inflicted upon himself daily...
That subject settled, the hawk moved onto the reason for his entrance. "However, it seems teachers are often students themselves as well... Yuki, thanks to Ebisu, has found himself rather... Bound by his training today, Oki. However, Ebisu has been called out on a metting, and has requested that you be Yuki's instructor today... If you have the time to spare..."

Oki stared at Ikihane incredulously. Ebisu wanted her to teach Yuki? Yuki? Her little bubble of happiness, created by cuddling with Ryo in her lap, popped and she did her best to conceal this fact. She didn't feel right refusing a request from Ebisu. Yuki, she'd have turned down. But Ebisu was her superior and she suspected the request was less of a request and more of a requirement.
"I have time," Oki finally conceded. "Ryo and I were just about finished here, any way."
She paused for a moment. "Ryo, why don't you head out and work on what we've been talking about? I want to see how well you're doing on Monday."

"Alright" Ryo nodded up at Oki giving her one last hug before hopping out of her lap and making for the door. "I'll practice and be awesome at it next time I see you~" He grinned happily and bounded out of the room with a wave.
