[CLOSED] the turtle is at another temple

[replicatedform]

Who: Yamanbagiri, Kamekichi and Konohanasakuya’s Temple residents, Yamanbagiri and Urashima later on.
What: Not quite first meeting.
When: September 17th
Where: Konohanasakura’s Temple
Summary: Yamanbagiri find a familiar turtle and try to returns her. He ends up getting endeared while waiting, but eventually returns her to Urashima later.

Yamanbagiri was in the middle of making his rounds around the temple. It’s mostly to see what he can do to lessen Sakura’s burden, like doing chores or doing cleaning. Maybe he should go and take note of their supplies... he might go shopping, depending on what they need. Or want to have. Since he’s been playing around with certain ideas in his head.

As he walks around the temple grounds, he glanced around. And paused when he spot something at the corner of his eyes. Something that seems to stand out against the general (and pink) decor of the temple. He turned around and walked over, before he crouched down near the well of holy water. And tilted his head at the familiar looking turtle.

“... Himechan? Is that you?” The closer he looks at her, the more he’s certain it’s really the same turtle that’s with Urashima. “What are you doing here?”

He should probably called Urashima. After he tried and received no response, he left a message saying he thinks he found “Himechan”, and to contact him soon. After putting his phone away, he holds out a hand towards her.

“Let’s get inside. You’ll probably get lost in all the petals.”

Seeing that she’s not seemingly objecting, he slowly picked her up and take her inside the temple. Hm… maybe he can feed her while waiting for Urashima’s call? His footsteps slowly turned towards where the kitchens would be.

It is, indeed, a certain strange boy's even stranger turtle. It's hard to mistake her for any other turtle with her fluffy tail and perpetually sleeping state. Despite appearing to be asleep, her tail flicks in acknowledgement and she opens her mouth in a yawn almost like a greeting to Yamanbagiri.

As Yamanbagiri makes his way to the kitchen, he'll probably pass the living area where Sakura is. She's sitting at the table, a bunch of flowers beside her as she works on some new flower arrangements to put around the temple. She looks up when she sees him and thinks its a little early for lunch, isn't it? And what's that he's holding?

"Yamanbagiri-san?" She calls out curiously.

He's carrying her in his hands, which means her soft, fluffy tail is right there in front of him. He wonders if he's allowed to touch it?

Hearing his name, he pauses and looks over to see Sakura. And with some flowers near her. Perhaps flower arrangement? He turns around until he's completely facing her, all while holding the turtle carefully in his hands.

"Sakura." If it's not for the turtle he's holding, he would look like the very image of a serious and attentive shinki. "Do you need me for something?"
