Shigeo and Tatsuyoshi

After the hoopla of the engagement; things settled back down to normal. Greta, looking out the window at the gloomy weather (it was raining); Haruo looking through classifieds (presumably not to get Tatsuyoshi taken out discreetly, though the thought was extremely tempting); and River painting.

Shigeo was jealous; he knew that he had lost out on winning Brianna's hand, but he was spoiling for a fight. So he readied his hand by going downstairs and getting his martial arts up to green belt toughening up his hand with the board-breaker.

Somehow the computer got busted in Yasunobu and Susan's room. Oh well, Susan could fix things since she had mastered handiness.

Rain seemed to be par for the British Columbia weather...ah, Legacy Island...land of rain...

...and things came to a head very shortly when poor Tatsuyoshi was standing, minding his own business, waiting for the elevator...when Shigeo snuck up on him and scared the pants off him.

"You reject!" Tatsuyoshi exclaimed furiously, "If I had seen you coming up, I'd have knocked you flat on your rear-end."

Shigeo yawned dismissively. "Yeah, sure, you and what army? You probably couldn't punch your way out of a paper bag."

The disagreement got rather heated...with a lot of name-calling on both ends. It was surprising that neither of them decided to go for it and drop the gloves initiating fisticuffs.

In fact the name-calling got so loud that Brianna came over to investigate what was going on.

Her lips pursed in a tight frown when she saw that it was Shigeo and Tatsuyoshi squared off jawing at each other. "I don't believe this." she said irritatedly. "Why are you going after Tatsuyoshi for?"

"If you start harassing my fiance, you and I are going to have a sparring match and believe me, I'm not going to go easy on you." Brianna snarled at Shigeo.

Shigeo recoiled like a wounded animal, whether it was the threat of violence inflicted on him by Brianna, or the word "fiance" that wounded him, it wasn't certain, but he backpedaled.

"You two can either grow up and behave like adults, or I'll knock both your heads together." Brianna threatened the both of them. They didn't like it but they knew that Brianna could kick both of their rears and then some.

After all, she didn't wear the garb of a Sim Fu Level 10 master for nothing.
