❀ 5th Weed in the Garden - Written / Action ❀

[shamelessness]

[When the note appears upon the page it looks like it was written by a hand that was possibly trembling in fear. When read it says:]

Anyone who was bothered by "Steel Maiden" please come to the fountain in the plaza. I'm so- It's important!

[When people arrive there they'll find a blond teen. She's looking around nervously, trying to determine from the crowd who she pestered over the event. Shiemi trembles with her hands gripping her knees, and shoulders hunched a bit. Oh dear she wasn't ready for this yet! But it's been so long. She has to do this.]

Comments

After other threads or something /preemptive

[rashness]

[when she's back from all that... Rin's enjoying having his own kitchen. Sure he's still not done on the pool, he's still pissed off at Luceti for his week during the experiment, he's still a bit awkward having been Shiemi's bra and a girl and he still hasn't gotten Precis to finish fixing their shower, but he can cook and more importantly, when Shiemi walks back in he can say-]

Welcome back.

[shamelessness]

[Exhausted after a day of worrying, and relieved that most if not all of the people forgave her, Shiemi allows herself to collapse on a piece of furniture in Rin's vicinity. Skarmy happens to have spent most of the day relaxing in a thorny plant Shiemi has. The bird chirps a small greeting at the same time as Rin.]

Th-thank you.

[rashness]

No problem.

[Yeah. it's nice. He is sort of... concerned. About what she is apologizing for at all. But oh well]

[shamelessness]

[The blonde gets comfortable in her seat, and when she registers that Rin is in the kitchen most likely to cook-]

Rin? Are you making something?

Before Rin's thread or something /postemptive?

[Fenimore is approaching and, boy, she doesn't look happy. If this were still during the thought bubbles, it would probably be filled with angry scribbles, but since it's not there's only a metaphorical dark cloud over her head. She's stomping in her direction, shoulders slumped and hands in her pockets.....if ferines clothes have them but if not then fisted by her side. When she encounters a small stone in the middle of her path, she kicks it so that it sails off to one side. She looks in an absolutely rotten mood.



...which has absolutely nothing to do with Shiemi because she hasn't even seen the entry -- or, for that matter, Shiemi. She's just still in a bad mood from the mission she just returned from and the fountain is between her and the grocery store.]

[shamelessness]

[Shiemi, thinking Fenimore is mad at her, runs up to the woman. Her expression is scared, her body trembles, and she's doing her best not to cry.]

F-F-F-F-F-Fenimore, I- I'm- !

1/2

[blessingone]

[She stops and looks towards Shiemi. Her expression doesn't quite clear up as she does so, making it initially look like a glare.]

[blessingone]

[But it becomes clear pretty much immediately that something is wrong and her expression morphs into one of both surprise and concern.]

Shiemi? Hey, what happened?

[shamelessness]

[Shiemi yelps and cowers a bit at the first look, but then wills herself to say-]

I'm sorry!

[markofthebrave]

[Well, Katara's week has been full of sadness, worry, and experiment after-effects awkwardness. But when she hears Shiemi's message over the journal, she decides to make a point to swing by.]

Hey.

[shamelessness]

[Oh no it's Katara. Shiemi becomes extremely nervous and shaky.]

K-K-Katara, h-hello.

[markofthebrave]

[Katara rolls her eyes lightly and smiles before moving over to just hug the other girl.]

It's okay, "Steel Maiden."

[shamelessness]

[She can't take it! It's too much! Too much! Katara is too kind, and Shiemi feels awful. Her regular, constant, blush caused by mild allergies intensifies, and she begins to choke up.]

S-sorry! I'm sorry.

[It takes him until the afternoon to wake up (again) and much to his chagrin he realizes that it's probably a good idea to go check his jour-

Shiemi, what are you doing? He's not exactly inclined to just jump up and go there right away, but-]

Are you okay? [Writing. Writing works.]

[Written]

[shamelessness]

You don't want to do this in person, Silver?

[Written]

[tsuntrader]

I can, but I won't be able to talk for long. [Masaomi. He needs to check up on Masaomi.]

[Aang remembers nothing of his time as his older self, even if his housemates have assured him by now that it did happen for a few days. Regardless, Aang just happens to be zipping through the plaza on his air scooter at that point in time.]

[Action]

[shamelessness]

[And Shiemi doesn't recognize him from being an adult. His tattoos and manner of dress are familiar, catch her eyes so she stares, but she's not quite sure...]

[Action]

[savedtheworld]

[He managed to notice the stare. She seems friendly enough, so he halts his air scooter and waves.]

Hello!

[Action]

[mischiefbreeder]

[She wants to apologize, huh? Well, that's just fine, because Gold will head to the plaza to meet her. He just leans against the fountain while he waits for her to show up.

He's not looking for an apology, though.]

[Action]

[shamelessness]

[By now she's apologized a couple times, but she's still nervous. The girl approaches him. Her face is a little red, her eyes are a bit wide, and he might be able to notice the slight trembling of her body.]

He-hello, Gold.

[Action]

[mischiefbreeder]

[He takes note of it all. It's all very important to his plan.]

Hey.

[wise_maiden]

I'm sorry, but I can't make it out there today. Would you prefer to talk over the journal, or meet later?

[Written]

[shamelessness]

Wh-wh-whatever is best for you, miss!

[wise_maiden]

I'll be out and about again in a day or two, if you'd like to meet by one of the shops. [There's a pause, it's obvious that her writing isn't very strong at the moment.] I'm afraid this last mission was a little rough, so I do need my rest right now.
