Tosa

Tosa lets out a small huff as she sets down a box of folders on the end of the desk. Her ears twitch slightly in annoyance as she flicks through the folders, making sure they're all there. She only gives it a moment to check but guesses it's about right. "Here," she says curtly, resting a hand on her hip.

Even though being the office secretary means boring paperwork from time to time, Tosa still isn't best pleased at having to do such menial tasks. "Give me an engaging task, should you find one, Commander," she adds somewhat sarcastically as she takes a seat on the office chair beside you, her soft tails fluttering around the sides of the armrests.

There's a distinct chill in the air today, showing that the winter months are truly here; it won't be long until the festive period begins and the decorations and wreaths come out. Tosa is out for a wander around port, wrapped up warm in a coat and scarf.

The winter months always make the fox-girls a little friskier than usual, so Tosa is specifically looking for somebody to spend some time with. She thought about asking her sister, however Kaga is usually busy with Akagi this time of year, so Tosa heads down to the central square to see who is around. Once there, Tosa almost passes right by you, not expecting to see you around. "Oh? Commander? You aren't working?" she asks, her tails swaying gently behind her. A brief flash of mischief flashes across her eyes. "Mind if I steal a moment of your time?"

Like many of the shipgirls, Tosa is enjoying the warm summer weather down at the beach. Wearing a delicate white bikini - certainly not her usual attire - she kicks her feet up on a deck chair and works on a small painting of the coastline. There's a game of beach volleyball going on nearby and the ball has come close to knocking her easel over one or two times. "Sister... Tell Akagi to watch where she throws that ball," she reminds Kaga, tossing it back to her friends.

Her ears twitch at the sound of footsteps behind her, so she glances over her shoulder. Her shoulders relax slightly when she realises it is only her Commander. "You shouldn't sneak up on a warrior like that, Commander," she jests playfully, twirling her paintbrush between her fingers. "Come to join us in the sun?"

After a long day, Tosa is eager to relax in one of the baths at the Sakura bathhouse. Ensuring the water is hot and a few soothing oils are stirred in, she strips down and sinks into the water, letting out a satisfied hum as her body relaxes. Even though she has just settled down, a knock at the door stirs her from her relaxation.

With a grumble of mild irritation, Tosa sits up in the water and pulls a thin robe over herself, not bothered about the material getting wet. "Yes?" she calls out, a flicker of surprise causing her ears to twitch when you poke your head around the door. "Oh? Need me for something, Commander? Hah, you have the most atrocious luck." She smiles stretching slightly as she perches on the edge of the bath, her feet swirling in the water. "I've just started getting comfortable and I'm not leaving anytime soon."

Tosa takes a deep breath and stretches her arms up high above her head. The morning has been packed with plenty of work to do and it's high time the pair of you take a break. "Commander..." Tosa says through a yawn, "It's time to put the pen down and have a break."

Tosa stands up from her chair to give her body a quick stretch before stepping over to the office sofa and plonking herself down. Her ears twitch slightly in annoyance when you don't immediately join her. "Surely you're not going to keep working?" she asks with a slight scoff, although she does find your work ethic somewhat endearing. Sensing you need a little convincing to set down the pen, Tosa pulls one of her soft tails onto her lap. "Come on, Commander. My tails don’t fluff themselves, and frankly, they behave better when you're touching them."

Tosa left a sealed envelope on your desk while you were out on duty, its contents containing a handwritten invitation to send some time with her t the end of the day. When she hears the knock on front door, signalling your acceptance of her invitation, a somewhat sly smile reaches her lips. "Look who's here, even at this late hour~" Tosa teases lightly as she opens the door for you.

Inviting you inside, Tosa shows you to her living room, guiding you over to the sofa. "Come. Sit. I won’t bite - unless you insist on teasing me, in which case, I might." As she takes a seat beside you, it becomes apparent that her kimono is a little looser than usual. Her tails also sway gently through the air, a couple of them instinctively reaching towards you as she sits beside you.

The sun rises lazily over the hilltops, bathing the quaint village rooftops in bright morning light. Tosa is already up, standing beside the balcony to watch the sunrise with a mug of tea in hand. With the conflict over and now only a distant memory, Tosa still hasn't gotten used to the peaceful mornings without worry, nor has she gotten used to being happily wed to her Commander.

With nothing but a silk robe around her, she returns to the bed to see you slowly waking up. With a smile, she sets her tea on the bedside table and climbs onto the mattress. "So, the mighty Commander finally wakes~" she teases with a smile, leaning over you to plant a kiss on your forehead. "You still mutter mission reports in your sleep, you know. It’s oddly endearing." Tosa slides back under the covers, wrapping both her arms and tails around your body as she cuddles close. "Tell me again, just once more, how it feels to wake up and see only me beside you," she whispers softly against your ear.
