Dorai arrives at The Warren perhaps an hour after those who've set foot on the ship before. His fighter and other possessions now ready for travel, he approaches the flagship of their tiny fleet with a mixture of curiosity and anxiety.
((OOC: Have a science question in to emeralddragon that affects exactly how Dorai gets ready to depart, but in the meantime we can handle his introduction to the ship.))

His fighter and other possessions now ready for travel, he approaches the flagship of their tiny fleet with a mixture of curiosity and anxiety. ((OOC: Have a science question in to emeralddragon that affects exactly how Dorai gets ready to depart, but in the meantime we can handle his introduction to the ship.)) ((OOC: All good <3)) Kiru is there waiting for him, and even ducks down a little and waves from the top of the ramp. "Ikoma! This way, this way!" Once the Lion approaches, Kiru gives him a formal bow. "M'thack-kir of the Burnt Crane Tribe is Kiru's official name, but please use 'Kiru' if Ikoma is not comfortable with clicks and squeaks. Kiru will not be offended. This is Kiru's first time meeting a Lion. Very exciting! Kiru knows Ikoma will be resolute enough to ignore whatever discomfort The Warren might inflict while trying to get acquainted with Ikoma, but if Ikoma has any difficulty, please let Kiru know. Once we leave the planet's atmosphere, it might be easiest to dock and clamp Ikoma's fighter until it is needed, ne? Is Ikoma okay with sharing piloting duties on the bridge with Itsuki? Already sharing a room, might as well share duty!"

Doji Kaiden arrives at the dock and approaches The Warren. He has a fairly large case of belongings, and a Shamisen slung on his back.

Shinwa excuses himself and picks up the white box and heads for Kaiden's new cabin. He sees him and Ikoma Dorai on the ramp and bows to greet them both, standing at the Nezumi's side.
"I can show you to your cabins when you are ready. "

Kiru calls out, bowing low before waving Kaiden up the ramp to join them all. Kaiden walks up the ramp and returns the captains bow. After hearing the "standard speech" he seems quite aprihensive as he steps onboard The Warren, "Kon... Konichiwa? Ship-Sama...?" He says towards the ceiling He steps very carefully on the deck , Loooking around nervously at the ships support beams and bulkheads, as if they might spring out to attack him if he steps in the wrong place.

Upon hearing Kaiden greet the ship, Kiru mutters something about being disappointed Kakashi isn't aboard. Then he smiles and nods at the Crane reassuringly. "As Kiru said, if Doji feels confident...or unable to get to sleep, please seek Kiru out for the final welcome ceremony."
His smile is one of an Agasha ushering an unsuspecting Matsu into his scientific laboratory after removing the "Danger: Explosives" sign.

Shinwa, carrying a white box, says, "It will be all right. It takes a little getting used to. Here, let me help you get those things to your cabin." He picks up one of the Doji's bags and leads the way.
Kaiden has been fortunate enough, in M'thack-ir's decisions on where people are to be assigned, to rate his own cabin, similar to Nanashi's. It is very plain at the moment: many cabinets with different storage space, tatami mats, and a counter-space and water dispenser. There is a futon and blankets on the floor that have not yet been rolled away into their cabinet.
The ronin sets down the bag he is carrying.
"There is a shower and bathroom around the corner, and further still there is the crew lounge and the garden. You are able to pick any fruits or vegetables you see that look ripe if you are hungry."
Brief introduction done, Shinwa pauses, and says, "I am sorry that you were swept up in this story, if this is not the story you wanted to have. I did not know it would happen this way. You were hospitable to me and taught me many things I needed to learn. I do not know the ending, but you should know I will do what I can to protect you in it. But I have many I need to protect now."
He bows and offers Doji Kaiden the white box. "To that end, and to repay the debt I owe, please accept this gift, Doji-sama."

Dorai cracks a small smile at the nezumi's infectious energy, but looks pensive--even cocking his head--at Kiru's standard speech about not causing the ship to hold a grudge. He processes the situation for a time, finally deciding that he doesn't need to understand the Phoenix to accomplish the mission. With a deep breath and a shake of his head, the Ikoma approaches closer. "Kiru-san, I think that I will attempt to learn your proper name. It may take a while." He looks directly up at the ship's entry, speaking with a bit of hesitation. "Does the ship have a preferred name?"

Kiru's face brightens as though he has just achieved his life's quest, he is so happy. "Ikoma is most kind, arigatou." He offers a low bow to show his respect and gratitude. "Actually, nobody has ever asked Kiru that before. Strange, ne? The Warren has a few names, truth be told. One of them is M'thack-kir." He pays careful attention to note any reaction at that revelation, before continuing, "It also bears the name Wa'hana, meaning 'Quiet as the Moon's Whisper'."

Shinwa glances over as he is leading Kaiden away and gives a small smile, happy to see M'thack-kir so pleased.

I was simply performing my duty, which I delight in doing." Kaiden bows several times while speaking.

"Please Shinwa-Sama, there is no debt. I was simply performing my duty, which I delight in doing." Kaiden bows several times while speaking. Ancient as it is, Shinwa obviously knows this game very well. "It is the duty of all to be hospitable, it is true, but you spent great amounts of time making certain my every need was cared for, and I was no doubt troublesome, and only an unworthy ronin as well. I had earned nothing but your disdain. You went above and beyond in service to one such as I. Please accept this gift, that which I can provide, as a sign of my great appreciation." He bows and offers the box again. Second offer.

And I have certainly had much more troublesome guests under my care. It was an honor to serve and no further recompense could possibly be required."

It was an honor to serve and no further recompense could possibly be required." Shinwa offers the gift a third time. "Then please accept this gift as a welcome to a most worthy new member of the Crew of the Warren, that I might show to you the hospitality you showed to me."
