8th Meal Served [Action]

[yuzuru_no_mai]

[There's a bit of commotion on Taylor Road. Iroha's been working in the garden, doing just about everything in her power to landscape properly. Now the front yard is starting to look like a proper yard, complete with bushes, flower beds, and trimmed trees.

Don't be surprised if you see her running to the backyard, where she's planning to put in a vegetable garden]

"Iroha! Hi!"

[Of course Hachibe is there to creep on her see what she's up to.]

"Need any help?"

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

*She looks up and waves*

Hachibe-san! I'm almost done with the front, but could you carry this bag to the curb, please?

*Iroha points to a large bag full of clippings*

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

"Anything for you!"

[And like the loyal puppy dog he is around her, Hachibe bounces on over to the bag, happily carrying it out to the curb without complaint.]

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

You're so sweet, Hachibe-san. Thank you.

*Have a smile and a bow, Hachibe. ;D*

-Someone's showing up dressed all nice and smellin' fresh. And looking incredibly nervous.-

[Hachibe totally loves it when Iroha bows.]

"So, is there anything else I can help out with?"

*Iroha's pruning a brand new rose bush when she notices the well-dressed man. At first, she blinks, not recognizing him. Then it slowly dawns on her...*

Ron?

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Not at the moment. *Then it hits her...*

Ah, I should go clean up. Would you like a glass of water or lemonade while I'm inside?

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

I can help you with the cleaning too if you want!

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

It is all right. I meant cleaning myself up and changing into something else.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Oh...! You look like you've been pretty busy!

[unless-itsafarm.livejournal.com]

Erm... Hello, Iroha. Lovely flowers.

[Passing by the street is a neighbor who happens to live on the same street. She's on her way home actually, and sees the black-haired girl working diligently on her garden.]

Oh, that's quite a bit of work. Are you okay, miss?

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

Why are you dressed up? Are you going somewhere nice?

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Shiki!

I decided to try a little change in scenery. I'm usually not very good with plants, but they seem to be thriving.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Hm?

*She looks up and sees the other girl*

I am all right. Just a bit tired is all.

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

You say that but...I don't know. Your work seems to tell a different story.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

You think so? How does it look?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

[He gives it all a once over.]

It looks like something a professional would do.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

That's... I cannot be that good, Shiki.

Really?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

I might not be the best judge since I'm not fantastic at it but it definitely looks like it.

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

Oh... oh my...

*She's blushing like crazy now*

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

Um...Iroha...are you sick?

[lovely-crane.livejournal.com]

No no! Not at all, Shiki.

Why do you say that?

[artwithknives.livejournal.com]

You were turning a little red so...

...should I take your temperature, just in case?
