Hello! I don't know too many of you yet, so we can just call me your Resident Gardener A.

I've been waiting impatiently for the weather to get better - I know there are some old orchards here, and so I was curious... Is the fruit in this place similar to what you knew, back where you came from? Anything different? Exciting?

I was thinking of trying a little bit of everything, but if you have a favorite - describe it to me!

Or something that tastes awful - also describe it to me! Tell me about what your tongue likes~

[Well, yeah.]

It's dangerous out there. Cywld nests're getting closer and closer to the city. You know that, right?

[If that doesn't tip her off to the responder, nothing will.]

[bloomly]

I don't know who you think you're talking to ( yes, she does, and yes, she knows it's him. ) but I'm fully capable of handling myself.

I've got plenty of practical experience. Besides, I never said I would be going out by myself.

[bravers]

[Aerith...]

I'm serious. You'll get yourself-

[Killed?
....Fuck.]

Look, I know things're pretty dull. But I'm telling you, it's not safe out there. The orchards're abandoned for a reason.

[bloomly]

But isn't that more reason to try to save them?

Or at least bring something back, to make new ones...

( she can't just leave something like that abandoned. )

Right?

[bravers]

[But it's just fruit! Go to any store, you can pick up any of these fruit, replant them, (and... something else probably, he's no expert) and get new trees!!
...Except that's not going to be an argument she's going to accept, is it.]

I'll scout around at the next full moon when I'm changed. If I find any trace of them, then the answer's no.

[But if he doesn't...]

Think you can wait till then?

[bloomly]

( it's different. good thing he doesn't try to argue--aerith-logic is hard to refute, if only because she's too stubborn to accept much of anything else.

even if he's a little right. )

Can't I come scout with you?

( aerith... )

[bravers]

[Aerith...]

No.

[Aerith isn't exactly defenceless. She's a witch, so she's got magic... but that's not exactly what he's concerned about. It's running. He's pretty sure, as a wolf, he can run fast enough to get away from the shades. Aerith's still human.

...And even then...
Can he trust himself around humans, like that?]

These things record, right?
I could get Zack to put it around my neck. Then you could watch.

[bloomly]

That sounds reasonable.

Are you sure you'd be safe? You'd really be okay?

( she would much rather risk herself than cloud, but he's not giving her that option. )

[bravers]

Yeah, I'll be alright. They've always been out there, so it's not the first time.

[He's not entirely sure how he's going to remember to get Zack to tie his device to his neck though... It's... kind of like e's a different person entirely when he changes.

Leaving a note? Maybe? Or...]

Just let Zack know, yeah? Otherwise, I'm not gonna remember to do anything.

[bloomly]

Okay~ I'll tell him.
But, you have to come to the cottage on your way back.

That's the deal, or else I'm coming with.
