❀ Security precautions
( Being a Hoshidan priestess and having spent time with some of the court diviners, Sakura is no stranger when it comes to magic. Still, her area of expertise is healing magic so she finds herself spending more time studying the protective markings. After awhile, she begins to get the hang of things and is able to move much faster,
though, she still takes her time, paying careful attention to each character and spell.

There are so many...

( Whoever was tasked with laying out all of these spells must be quite the talented diviner. )


❀ Event preparations
( Now, here's something she can help with! She finds herself gravitating towards a table laid out with flowers and branches. Anyone who has visited her temple before might be familiar with the traditional flower arrangements that decorate many of the rooms. This is a hobby of her's and she's excited to find that it can be of some use. She can be found are various parts of the day working on a few different arrangements in varying styles. Once she finishes her current one, she seems to think about something. Glancing around, she gives you a nervous smile before asking shyly, )

Do you think... m-maybe these should be bigger? ( Look, her conversation practice is paying off! ) Maybe something more like a centerpiece?


❀ Heavenly Record-keeping
Oh, please leave me alone...!

( She'd been left alone long enough to enjoy most of the day but now that it's beginning to get later and there are fewer distractions to excuse herself with, her dove is beginning to get vocal. It coos and chirps at her, occasionally flapping it's wings at her. It was cute at first but now she's beginning to feel the pressure. She pleads for it to leave her alone and the bird only ruffles its feathers.

She... really doesn't want to do this? It doesn't feel right to her! What if what she writes isn't good enough? What if she writes something and it's taken out of context?! Couldn't she just.... tell her shinki how much she appreciates them in person instead? Does she really have to answer all of these questions? She's no stranger to paperwork but that doesn't make it fun.
