Among the unaffiliated, Kawabata Mist stands out as a Corgi who is small in frame and outsized in opinion. Kawabata Mist treats a bent spoon argued to be a tiny shovel like a small relative with strong opinions, which is to say, very seriously. The Yard has a small unspoken rule about teasing Kawabata Mist near the leaning tree, mostly because nobody wants to lose. Kawabata Mist would rather collect quiet wins over a ribbon faded by ocean salt than loud ones that nobody understands.
