[So, if you haven't noticed, it's Summertime! And there are thousands of wonderful things about Summer. There's the beach, there's lazy days in front of a fan, there's sitting outside listening to the cicadas...]

[But most importantly- fireworks.]

[Lt. Nagone Mako is out an about, in a light green yukata, with a small cart being pulled behind her. The contents of the cart is an amazing variety of fireworks, from large to small, from screamers to sparklers. She has a bright smile on her face, quite enjoying the relative peace of the Dressing Room.]

You won't know for sure until you try something. I enjoy things that let me focus entirely on them, and that I can improve on. It may be different for you.

Do you get something out of it, in the end?

[striketheheart.livejournal.com]

Improved skills. Good exercise, in the case of Kendo.

What do you need improved flower arranging and calligraphy skills for?

[striketheheart.livejournal.com]

They are wonderful, cultured skills! And... I suppose I should say, they remind me of my home a little.

Do you miss it? Home.

[striketheheart.livejournal.com]

Mm. I do, a little.

[rollagain.livejournal.com]

So you do those things because you miss it. That makes sense.

[striketheheart.livejournal.com]

Yes. Things that remind you of times when you were very happy.
