[Well first of all, there are indeed a couple of guys in here finishing up a tally. They're peering into the barrel with porcelain horses and making some notes. Soujirou is also still here kind of half tucked next to some barrels, though he'll scoot over to stand by Aikawa's leg once he enters the cart. Friendly face...
Oh yeah, and one barrel's lid is missing. A particularly large, Risu-sized barrel's lid! You know how it goes.]
[The soldier glances around, surveying all of the barrels. They're all here, save the ones that were thrown overboard! Risu's is just missing its lid.]
Are we? I heard you lost some cargo, but not, you know... [That cargo. The cargo for Tama. Tama's cargo.]
--Oh. The one back there? [The man gestures toward the lidless barrel.] That one was missing the lid since we got in here to look around. Why're you carrying an empty barrel around, anyway?
[SIR PLEASE HE'S JUST AN INNOCENT LAD he looks a little nervous at the snappiness. He's just sitting here wondering if they were transporting live animals to Tama or something holy shit.]
[HYELP. The guard looks a little sweaty, glancing down at Soujirou who just ducks behind Aikawa's leg, clinging to his pants and barely peeking out around the side.]
I was and they're lying! Another guy came in and went to look at the stuff back there. [THIS SOLDIER'S GONNA STOMP THIS CHILD HERE ON THE SPOT. Though after a pause, Soujirou add:] Um... But they really didn't go look at that one, though. I watched you guys leave, and then I heard a noise from over there, and when I looked back, the lid was gone...
[i.
well.
At around that time, a shrill scream sounds from outside, so maybe they want to check that out instead!]
[So much is happening SOUJIROU LOOKS VERY CONCERNED but he will answer promptly:]
Uh-- He was as tall as that guy! [POINTING to one of the soldiers who's about 5'10".] And he had black hair that was kinda short and choppy... And a real serious face. Oh - and he had these black lines, like this! [Drawing a line down and over one eye.] And really pretty eyes.

Hey, how's it going? Checking barrels?
no subject
One of the soldiers tips his stupid little cone hat in Aikawa's direction, and he offers a smile even though he looks a little nervous.]
Yep - just about done in here. You finished up with the papers, right? Let's get you guys out of here stat.

A description of the other guy. Now.
