<div class="floatleft">(http://i60.tinypic.com/1c87q.jpg)</div>Asahina Reiko (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=261269.msg12891726#msg12891726)<br/><br/>Reiko just barely controls a wince as one of the newcomers finds her way into the bath rather more quickly than expected.  A moment later, she also just manages to avoid giggling, one pale hand lifting out of the water, briefly touching her lips.  She controls herself, expression returning to one of polite neutrality.  Still, her blue eyes dance with laughter, and she resolves to remember this incident for later; it would make a good story.<br/><br/>However, the best way of dealing with an awkward incident is to ignore it.  Reiko offers the recently submerged young woman a tiny bow and smile.  "Asahina Reiko.  It is a pleasure to meet you."  Exactly as she had to everyone else.  Hopefully that small bit of normalcy would help her to feel more comfortable.<br/><br/>Still leaning against the wall, Reiko squirms slightly.  It was becoming rather crowded in the baths.  With this many people, it was becoming more likely that she might accidentally brush against another, or they against her.  It happened from time to time, of course, but should still be avoided.<br/><br/>When the friendly seeming Hida speaks up, Reiko turns to him, her expression, brightening.  "Ah, Hida-san!  Yes, I found my journey to be quite enjoyable.  It was my first time traveling outside of Crane lands, actually.  And yes, I feel it is quite fortunate to do so for a wedding."  She follows his nod to the other woman.  "Ah, you've already met Agasha-san?"  She asks.
