❀ 3rd Weed in the Garden - Action ❀

[shamelessness]

[So what if it's cold today? That won't stop Shiemi, or her new partner Skarmy. The two are determined- Okay, maybe more so Shiemi than the metal bird, but nevertheless they are both out training today. On the edge of the forest a teen girl and a two to three foot metal baby bird can be found practicing moves. So far Taunt and Drill Peck are the only ones Shiemi has recognized.

Before lunch they walk together around the plaza to take a break, and finally about an hour after noon the pair will head to Community Building One. Maybe she can ask Rin to make them lunch. He makes her dinners often enough, but... it's her Birthday. Today she'll want to indulge in his cooking instead of her usual guilty acceptance of her kindness. ...She should learn how to make edible food one day, really.

And that's it. She doesn't make this day a big deal because... well when your world is just your house your birthdays don't tend to be big anyway. Plus: how does I birthday with friends?]

[rashness]

She looks strong though.

[shamelessness]

[Skarmy sort of "grins" at this, but Shiemi is still unsure.]

Maybe when we get a little better? We can train, and then test our strength against Rin.

[rashness]

She's not going to stand a chance when the time comes though!

[shamelessness]

[Skarmy gives him a look that says, "We'll see about that."]

We can at least try to be a challenge.

[rashness]

Alright, cool. [So why are you back - usually you'd be out longer. Is it to water the plants? did he forget to feed Midori...?]

[shamelessness]

Rin, could I... ask you to make lunch for me?

[rashness]

-Huh? Uh. Sure...?

[shamelessness]

I'd really like that, thank you.

[rashness]

[...One more glance at Skarmy, and then he'll be shrugging and heading tot he kitchen]

What do you want?

[shamelessness]

Anything Rin makes is good! I'll like it.

[rashness]

W-w-well yeah, I mean. Sure. But. [...UH.] C'mon, you're actually asking this time!

[shamelessness]

W-well! Could you make me a good soup?

[rashness]

[...Soup? Well. He nods] Alright, I got that!

[shamelessness]

We can wait for you to put your books away.

[rashness]

...Oh. Yeah, hold up, I won't be a minute!

[He almost forgot he needed to hide these!! Which is why he'll scurry on into the apartment to be out again in not even seven minutes to head to the souping place for the kitchen]

[shamelessness]

How is your day today, Rin?

[rashness]

Pretty cool, I guess.

[To the kitchen!!]

[shamelessness]

Do anything fun?

[rashness]

Well, I did my job and found some manga and such.

[shamelessness]

From the library?

[rashness]

Yeah, from the library.

[HEH HEH HE]

[shamelessness]

How long do you have them for?

[rashness]

Oh, a while, I guess until I... red them?

[OR FOREVER (yea)

...soup time]

[shamelessness]

[As he starts preparing she'll find a seat a a table near the cooking area.]

[rashness]

[Okay so what type of soup. Cheese broccoli, egg drop? Maybe some sort of... actually. He picked up crab the other day, right? He should check the fridge. Maybe he can make a chowder]
