Is that so? I'll have to tell Robert, he'll be immensely jealous. But who wouldn't be?

[roseblooms]

I think your Robert is getting a bit fed up with me, frankly. He'll never manage to pay off his tab at this rate.

[originallutece]

The competition is good for him. It keeps him sharp. Although if you don't waive his tab soon, I'm going to be quite cross, Kurama.

[roseblooms]

Oh, rest assured, he's been making a good faith effort. I've been finding quite a bit of use in his knack for getting around from place to place in a hurry.

[originallutece]

Are you making him play errand boy?

[roseblooms]

It's more that I'm having him make deposits for me.

Of seeds, specifically, in places around the city that are largely devoid of greenery.

[originallutece]

[Gardener isn't much of a step up, but she supposes it's for a good cause.]

Normal seeds? Or demonic plants?

[roseblooms]

Normal, for the most part. Generally roses, just because I'm most practiced with manipulating them in a hurry, but he's sowing a few other varieties for me as well.

[originallutece]

Ah. So it isn't simply an effort on beautifying our fair city, hm?

Roses are good, though. He still hasn't grown comfortable with Punnett; I'd be quite displeased if you were terrorizing him with your efforts.

[roseblooms]

I've been trying to convince him to wear a carnation in his lapel on a daily basis, but I suspect he's leery that I may have an ulterior motive in that.

[originallutece]

And do you?

[roseblooms]

I do.

My motive is that I suspect it would please you.

[originallutece]

This is going to end with the two of you ganging up on me, I think. Though at least it's in only the most charming of ways.

[roseblooms]

I don't know about that. I've always been more of a free agent than a team player.

It's more that I'm simply very invested in your happiness, in whatever form it might come.

[originallutece]

You know that holds true in reverse, I hope.

I worry about you. I am worried about you, here and now. And while I will leave you alone if you'd like, I'd be more than happy to keep you company, these next few days.
