While Shinra followed in behind Keldran, he tried to strike up conversation, jogging up to catch up tot he taller shinobi. But it was like a dream where you keep reaching for that carrot and it never makes it into your hand, you know? The sound of music and people enjoying themselves made it hard to speak up over them. He didn't want to blurt anything out, but it was drowning out his meek attempts.

That was put on the back burner as he was pulled off to the side, blinking a bit, and tugging his hat back down so that it covered his bad eye. He found himself prancing about and dancing with other Uchiha clan members. The look on Shinra's face was one of bewilderment, confusion, guffaw. Properly describing just how strange it was to experience Uchiha in such an upbeat manner unlike how they were described in the past. Though when he saw the growing tiger cub that he and his team had saved in the past, he just wanted to go over and give the big fluffy cat a pet on the head.

Just as quickly as he was brought over, Shinra was back to the path, and stumbling up the steps, catching himself and looking up at Keldran and Takahiro, "You should really mention 'not getting worked up' as a forethought.  You should do a lot of things as a forethought." He dusted himself off and sighed, but with a smile on his face. Following the two inside, Shinra just listened to what they were talking about.

At the table, and sitting to Keldran's right hand, Shinra was the first to speak up, "The most taxing thing is wanting to bury my family, especially my father. But that's a bit hard to do.  Other than that--I have been building upon the small housing complex you gave to me. I was thinking of converting an annex of it into a library for Shinobi and civilian usage.  And I have been looking over a lot of the village and trying to work on a plan for what would go best where, regarding the palcement of fortifications." Talking business at a party, Shinra was always someone who wanted to show how insightful and deep his mind was, despite his disdain for being in the spotlight. Maybe Takahiro could make a comment on how Shinra's brain worked so that he didn't seem like a total fop in front of Keldran.
