*Kai enters the bar, looking a little nervous. He takes a slow look around, making sure to maintain his erect bearing. He takes a deep breath, bows to the waist, and begins to speak in a carrying voice*
Konbanwa, minasama! I am the new recruit, Kai Shintani. I was accepted a week ago, and flew my first patrol a few days later. Perhaps I was with some of you here...my apologies for not recognising your faces. I look forward to an honourable career with you all.
*Kai, still looking nervous, bows again, very correctly, takes a deep breath, and walks over to the bar*
I suppose I'll have what everyone else is...just a sake, thanks.
*He slowly looks around as he's waiting*
I suppose I will get used to this place. I've certainly been in worse.
