Not to disclose too many spoilers, but S'hatsuho is no stranger to male advancement. Â She's been getting more and more attention from her sept's Nunh recently as she has neared her coming of age ceremony, despite her never having undergone a pilgrimage. Â Many of the reasons that the Nunh use this as a barometer for selecting females to mate with are things that S'hatsuho has already demonstrated, or has already been proven by proxy.
Be it that S'hatsuho has proven her self-sufficiency through her time with the hunting parties and the fishing boats, or proven her strength and prowess against the tribe's warriors in combat ceremonies, or even that the quality of her lineage has been proven by both her mother and her eldest sister completing many pilgrimages themselves, or her young sire's accomplishments as a warrior against the sahagin and his subsequent sacrifice protecting the tribe from leviathan, S'hatsuho's quality as a mate is clear to most of the tribe, with or without the sacred rites of the pilgrimage. Â Throw her dual-hued eyes on top of all of that, and you get one young, desirable miqo'te female.
This, of course, has all been to S'hatsuho's chagrin. Â She has lived her life for the moment that she would set for the mainland to see the world, and now the Nunh would seek to tie her down with motherhood before she could feel the sand of foreign beaches beneath her feet. Â Throw on top of that that her eldest sister, whom S'hatsuho idolizes, had always told tales of the places that she and Hatsu would go when the two took Hatsu's first pilgrimage together, only for said sister to be swept off of her feet by the tribe's charming new Nunh on her latest return home, thereby forcing Hatsu to set out alone, and you're left with one young, desirable miqo'te female who has a very bitter taste left in her mouth for Nunh.
*Cough* Â *Cough*
Sorry. Â I got carried away with my keyboard there. Â Anyway, I skimmed through your wiki page. Â I'm not sure if Val introduces himself as a Nunh or not, but if he does, that would turn Hatsu off from him instantly. Â Even that could be fun if the two of them are in a situation where they have to work together or have regular contact.
Val isn't really much of a Nunh anymore. The character has grown a great deal, and while he's still mischievous and doesn't hold much respect for most people, he's engaged and has learned to at least carry on a conversation (even if a small one) without offending someone. ...Sometimes. Maybe.
Either way, I welcome the challenge with open arms  Any interaction is nice!
