build me up, buttercup

WHO? Nene Yashiro and You!
WHAT? Open log!
WHEN? The first half of August! Prompts for the second half to open later!
WHERE? Various locations such as the home ec rooms and the courtyard
WARNINGS? Grief and coping mechanisms, tba?
 

i. home economics 

( most days these days you may find the smell of something cooking wafting through the second floor- though with summer vacation starting soon- or perhaps it already has- it might be more rare. but for once, lucifer or one of the others hasn't beaten nene to the punch. she does not touch any meat that isn't fish or beef, she is careful with the vegetables she takes, and she does not make single portions. if you poke your head in, if you've been here from the start, it might feel familiar, the way she looks up and tries to smile. )

Are you hungry? Come have a seat. 

ii. crafts

( there's new 'transfers' again. people who can't leave, who are stuck with two sets of memories. and nene hasn't met a lot of them personally, but she's seen them around or on the network... even if she really, really, really wishes she hadn't. but... 

...

one may find nene in the second portion of the home ec rooms, sitting down and diligently working needle, thread and cloth together. if she isn't too focused, she might stop to smile and ask, )


Hi! Did you need something? 

( or she might not notice you entirely. )

iii. after club meetings 

( for all that she's never been in the role before, nene seems to be managing well enough as the gardening club president- even if one of her vice presidents withdrew from everyone. ... not that she'd made it especially official, she relied on natsume and lucifer both. ... she'll need to stand on her own someday, won't she? so... 

... she stays behind later than most other members a lot. sometimes it's to tend to the plants belonging to those who- who vanished. sometimes its to keep an eye on the flowers that had been given to her by the gardener. sometimes she just needs to be with something living and kind, away from the stress of everything. maybe you catch her closing the door behind her as she finally leaves for the day, or maybe you see her half-slumped against a desk, watching the clouds in the window. such is the way it goes.

maybe you'll even notice she's tying her hair back in pigtails more often. )


iv. wildcard!

( closed posts or other ideas! let's goooo )

[ Shinobu’s starting to see parts of herself in Nene. Not the good ones, either. She sees a girl devoted to her work, devoted to her friends. She sees a girl devoted to everyone but herself. If there’s anything Shinobu’s learned, it’s that one of those things will eventually give way and break—and if Nene’s work and friends are okay, then…

That’s not something she wants to think about. She breathes out hard, like she’s getting the thought out of her system, then puts on her best smile. ]


You’ve worked very hard today, Nene-san.

[ If words won’t bring her back inside and away from the skies above, maybe a gentle hand on her shoulder will. ]

Is there anything I can help with?

Shall I take care of Turing-san’s plant in your stead, then?

[ Nene has a lot on her plate, even without all these plants to look after. If there’s anything—anything at all—Shinobu can help with, she wants to be there. She has to, lest she risk losing Nene too. ]

I can take care of any other plants that are giving you trouble as well. You only need to ask.

[ Unless it’s not just a plant problem. ]
