WHO: Bluebell and co

WHEN: Late Day 7 through Day 8

[ So all our grass is dead and there might be blood-grown flowers outside and the mattress pile is definitely also covered in blood now.

Whaddup. ]

Comments

[featherduster]

[ Once it's just Bluebell left in the barn, Vash waggles his staff around a bit. Jingle jingle. ]

C'mere, it's important.

[noarchitact]

[ DID YOU DO MY SPECIAL JINGLE?! ]

[featherduster]

[ HE DOES THE SPECIAL JINGLE AFTER THE REGULAR ONE SPECIFICALLY FOR FANTASIA ]

[noarchitact]

[ wife reporting. ]

You rang?

[noarchitact]

[ kaveh is out in the garden, which is probably some kind of mess - busted up and blood ridden. he sighs, combing his fingers through his hair as tempo floats around to take stock of all the damage. ]

[ he's far too tired to start working on fixing it up, so he's just going to throw a blanket over his shoulders, take a seat, and whip out a notebook. ] Come here, Tempo. Have a seat right next to me.

[ time to draw. ]

...

[She's just testing her piano. Look, she's piano girl at heart.]

[vivace_ultimate]

[She walks over from her piano.]

We did the right thing... right?

[featherduster]

[ Thank you dear ]

Yup.

[ Pulling Fantasia into a hug with no preamble ]

Good job.

[noarchitact]

[ not anticipating a hug. ]

[ he hesitates, but ultimately hugs minuet back. ] You did just as good of a job.

[featherduster]

[ GET IN THIS HUG RUBATO ]

[featherduster]

[ Thank you for coming at his call even when you're playing piano.

SHE GETS PULLED INTO A HUG TOO ]

Yeah. I really think so.

You did great.

[featherduster]

It seems like death will be a little more lenient now . . . so it was worth it.

[chasseurdebeaute]

Oh!




You’re quite full of solid angles, aren’t you!

[noarchitact]

I agree. I'm glad we got to meet her. [ a shame it had to be under such circumstances, but what can you do. ] ...you might want to avoid looking at the garden in the back, by the way. It's... a bit of a mess.

[featherduster]

[ Oh no . . . ]

It's all dead, isn't it . . .

[featherduster]

[ Rubato. ]

Don't critique me while I'm hugging you.

[featherduster]

[ Wandering out to assess the damage for himself.




Oh nooooo . . . ]

It's really all dead . . .

[noarchitact]

...mm, I'm afraid so. I'm going to work on it tonight. If you find some time later, you should join me outside. The company would be nice.

[noarchitact]

...yeah. [ his pencil stops and he sets it ( and the notebook ) down. ] I'm going to take care of it, though it's going to take a while. [ he gets up. ] I'm working on a little something else though. [ goes over to set a hand on his shoulder. ] And I'll make this new garden better and bigger than before, so... no need to frown just yet.

[featherduster]

Consider me at your service, then.

[featherduster]

[ Glancing up hopefully ]

Mn? What's that?

[noarchitact]

I knew I could count on you. Let's see if we can't make sure the other Bluebells get some sleep. Or at the very least a little r&r. [ archons, what he wouldn't give for a drink. he's been sober for WAY TOO LONG. how the hell do people do this?! ]

1/3

[noarchitact]

[ takes his hand and leads him over to the small patch of unsoiled grass, so he can grab his notebook. ] Here, let me show you.

[noarchitact]

[ kaveh hands him the book and opens it up to show off a very detailed sketch of a much larger and more elaborate garden. the pond is still there, but it's bigger and there's also a waterfall. the sitting area's grown in size and there's a gazebo now too. there are so many flowers. ALL OF THE FLOWERS. the display is definitely more intricate and embellished. ]

Something like this.
