and the place got smaller as they grew taller

and taught me to bloom


 

 

 the flowers of the gardening club seem to be thriving! what with the, um, nutrient-rich water and the abundance of plant food and sunlight, and experienced members there to keep a helpful eye on things for the new gardeners! a pot and a planter seem to have been removed from the room, however- and a small potted tree has joined the group, carefully labeled with a sign requesting it not be touched. nene's own private flowers carry a similar sign on their planter as well. turing's jade plant is unofficially in her care, as is hinata's flytrap until he at least knows it belongs to him. the wisteria tree outside is hauntingly beautiful, and the sky rains ash sometimes. it's fine. they're fine. in a world of turmoil and the occasional week-long disappearance, sometimes you have to stop and make sure the roses are still blooming.

I- I really do do my best- I just wish I could do more.... back home, I have to rely on Hanako-kun too... it feels like nothing's changed. But... you're right. And you help me a lot too...

You do so much for us all. So if I can make anything easier... just tell me, okay?

Thank you. I- I am proud for any way that I can help out a splendid friend such as yourself. [He bows his head.]

Yes, I can let you know. I can do that! ...Although I also feel like I do not have to. Yashiro-kun, you help me out a lot without me even needing to ask it. [He thinks back to how kind she was at the charity event just the other month.] Still, I will be sure to let you know, and I hope that you do the same if you need help! Let's both keep doing our best to help each other through this!

R-right!

( no time for tears! keep moving forward! or the crippling anxiety and grief will eat you. )

So, um- ( nene gestures to some of the pots. ) Would you like to see more of what we have? Careful about touching them, of course- they're getting their sunlight right now.

( also, add will throw a fit if his flowers are bothered. )

[He gives a hearty smile and nods as they turn their attention back to the plants.]

Absolutely! I am thrilled to take a look at any of these beautiful results of everyone's hard work. [He approaches the plants very carefully, with a serious expression!] Of course, I will be quite cautious. The last thing I want is to disturb any plant's nutritious meal of sunlight! I will make sure not to cast my shadow onto them!

[He cements that with a salute!]

( nene leads him a bit closer, before gesturing to each pot... but she's pointedly ignoring the two labelled not to touch. )

So, this is going to be an American flower called 'coneflower'! I've never seen it before, but I'm super excited to see how it turns out. And then we've got sage, mint and rosemary growing together, they're coming along quickly... we'll be able to use them soon, I bet.

[Ishimaru follows along as she indicates each pot and observes them as much as he can without disturbing them.]

'Coneflower'. What an interesting name! And it looks quite pretty, as well. [Moving right along...] Ah, three herbs together I see. Like a group of siblings! It is good to hear that they are almost ready. That would be quite nice! [A pleased nod.] Splendid specimens all around!
