shamelessness | ❀ 8th Weed in the Garden

[The Voice function on the journal starts up, but instead of Shiemi's voice it's Rin's:]

[Voice]
Ossu. It's me, Rin -- I lost my journal a while ago and I still haven't find the thing. 'M using Shiemi's just for a bit to make sure anyone who doesn't know, knows. [...] Uh, I can't really keep using this, so if you wanna come talk meet me at House 15?

[People can find Shiemi doing one of two things today:

1) In the sky people can see Shiemi practicing with her now very large (now full grown at five feet and seven inches) skarmory. She'll stand on her Pokémon's back as if she were surfing, ride on its back like it's a horse, or - this one has her particularly frightened - practice falling. Shiemi stands up, lets herself fall backwards off of Skarmy, and then Skarmy swoops back around to catch her. Honestly they hope never to put the skill to use for real, but they might have to use it.

2) After they're done the duo go back to the house (#15) to rest. Shiemi treats Skarmy to some spicy foods, and while the large bird starts preening its feathers... some steel feathers fall off! Skarmy is has started molting, and leaving large, sharp metal feathers everywhere. Oops!]

[Later that day House 15 will have a mermaid flitting back and forth in front of it, at a complete loss for what to do. She heard Rin say he'd lost his journal, and she wants to offer to help him find it. But having lived a majority of her life locked up in a tower, certain social graces escape her.

Like how someone tells a person inside a house that they're outside the house and want to see them. Does she just walk in? That seems a little rude. Yell really loud? That seems even more so.

Eventually someone will come home, or feel the need to leave, right? Right?]

[Shiemi and Skarmy round the corner of the house (they've been circling the place). Shiemi has her hands full, and is picking up discarded metal feathers that Skarmy is leaving around. In fact it looks like a vicious cycle of the more they walk, the more Skarmy molts, the more Shiemi has to pick up. However the blonde stops to look at the guest fretting in front of the house.]

Hello?

[Shirahoshi kicks back hard, her hand moving over her heart in surprise. But she quickly calms down, and rights herself on the floating bubble that keeps her aloft.]

Um. Hi. I was just. That is... R- Rin-sama said that he lost his journal... Do you know him?

Of course! [She puts the pile of feathers in a heap by the corner of the house, and approaches Shirahoshi.]

I live with Rin.

Oh!

[She blushes deeply, and bows politely.]

He never mentioned that he had a wife. It's nice to meet you!

E-eh!? N-n-n-n-n-no! I'm not Rin's w-w-w-wife!

[She wavers a bit, almost looking like she'll faint.]

Oh! I'm sorry! I j- just assumed!

[Now she's even brighter red than before. This conversation is really off to a great start.]

Um. D- do you know if he needs help finding his journal?

[Hopefully that's enough of a subject change to save both their sanities.]

Y-y-you can- can go inside and ask him.

Er, that is.... a- are you sure that's okay?
