An irresponsible idiot who has a chronic need to put his nose where it doesn't belong and do things he should be letting other people do... not do things he should be doing.

[The slightly peevish tone softens the longer Rokuta talks, though, and even if not quite intended, there's definitively fondness staining the edges of the last word or two. Scrubbing his face and running a hand through his hair, he slumps a little, eyes closed for a moment. He can swear he can still smell blood, but that's... probably just the lingering effects of being spattered with it.]

Shoryu's also very good at reading people and knows what he's doing... most of the time. [He cannot say something good about his ruler without immediately attempting to nullify it, at least somewhat.]
