That would be wonderful...

[and she means it, there's much sincerity in her words.]

But, how? I have no sight - I'm afraid I'd make a rather poor job of tending them.

[adsum]

[ ? It's too bad Helena can't see the expression Kazuki makes at learning the person he's talking to is blind. Same hat... though he sincerely wishes her situation is vastly different from his own. ]

...You are not alone in not being able to see the world around you. But if that's the case, you know better than most how to feel the world, do you not? Plants are alive just as much as people are. You simply tend to them the same you would any person.

[decrypter]

[she gives a small hm of acknowledgement, and takes a few steps closer to a plant, slowly reaching out to touch its leaves, which rustle softly from the movement.]

What if I harm them in my ignorance?

[it would be a shame, wouldn't it? to lose them to someone's inept care.]

...Sorry, I'm asking too many questions. I'll control myself.

[adsum]

No, you need not be sorry. Questions are a sign and interest and engagement; I could not be more pleased with them.

[ Questions means he gets to teach, to show, to bring another person into his world and help them know it as he knows it. He makes his way forward towards Helena and her chosen plant, though he does linger more than an arm's distance when he comes to a stop. ]

Plants are resilient, lass. Grass trampled beneath one's feet will come to rise again. Bushes that are pruned will grow back thicker. If you overwater a plant one day, the next morning it will form sweet dew. And for every mistake that is made, you will learn.

[she gives a little hum of acknowledgement, considering the words. she knows what that feels like - to make a mistake, and to try again and again until the right path is unlocked, the right course of action. but with these plants, it feels like messing up is almost grave. they weren't hers. and yet...he's offering permission to try.

though he can't see the small smile on her face, he'll be able to hear it in her voice.]

No better place to learn than a school.

[trying. it might give her something of a purpose.]

[adsum]

That is right. People are much the same way, so whenever you feel downtrodden, have faith you will rise again. And don't be afraid to let others tend to you, nor afraid to tend to others.

[ People are just like plants. He means this in a good way. ]
