[Should Reyna be resting? Probably. Is she? Absolutely not! There are a couple of people she's taken it upon herself to track down after that... disaster of a trial. Hikage is one of them.
So, whenever and wherever she does manage to find him--]
[ he seems fidgety, after the trial, despite his usual frosty demeanor. She'll find him alone in the kitchen, drinking tea. Usually, he takes it to his room, but today, he wants to be alone for a little while.
[AAAAA GOD I THOUGHT I REPLIED TO THE LAST ONE i can backtag that if you want or we can just keep moving forward
ANYWAY. Here they are. Hunting for precious items. Does Hikage even have any precious items? I sure don't know. But he's stopped somewhere for some reason, and so Reyna stops as well.]
...something catch your eye?
LET'S JUST KEEP GOING it's hard for me to go back with him bc he's been developing LMAO
[ he wasn't actually looking for any special items - as far as he knows, he doesn't have any - but he is, indeed, stopped outside in the garden, staring up at an enormous topiary in the shape of a dragon. There's clearly something wedged in the hedge-dragon's mouth: what looks like a mirror. And Hikage is looking at it anxiously. ]
If I can find something to vault with, I'm relatively certain I can get high enough to grab it. [she'd just have to hope she didn't go wide and go flying] Or, failing that, nudge it through the topiary so one of us can catch it.

Which isn't happening, clearly. ]
... You? What do you want?

[...apologizing sort of leaves a bitter taste in her mouth, but she'll do it anyway.]
When we spoke at the trial - I was more combative than was necessary. You were only trying to help.

You don't have to apologize for that. I didn't think you were out of line... We both had points, anyway.

That shouldn't be up there.
100% fair tbh i'm sorry for being a disaster
[Damn. If it is a mirror, they can't just throw something at it to knock it down; breaking a mirror is bad luck.]
Want me to see if I can get it down?

What do you plan on doing?

[ he cuts in with that almost immediately after she suggests catching it, eyes flashing sharply. ]
I need it.
