Voice & Action

[ There's a fib of a Feather under the shade of the barracks after noon; she's got the sundress on, but Aerith is undoubtedly not new. She knows where she is, and after she gets past the jolt of terror that strikes when that last painful blow is remembered, she knows why she is there. She's plenty upset, and she's also angry and tense as she returns to house #41, keeping near the side of the street and under the cover of buildings for the brisk walk. She'll stop if a friend calls to her, but otherwise make a quick excuse and keep going; she really, really wants to go back to what's become her home here.

After stopping in at the house and checking in with her housemates--and letting herself have a good cry to help get it out--she goes and makes a journal post from her bedroom.

She takes a big, deep breath, first. ]


I'm back... this is Aerith. I hope no one [ else ] was worried, but it's... better now. I'm back. I'm not hurt.

...Is it...normal to see nothing when you die? Like you just stop... I'm sorry, ignore that. What a stupid thing to talk about!

[ ...It doesn't help to keep thinking about it right now. As she handles any responses that come, Aerith goes and does something extremely mundane and calming for her. She checks on all the flowers, at home, at the flower shop, and at the memorial garden, with the wolf Daisy close by her side. He's being more protective than usual right now. ]
goldenglasses: (You really think so?)

[Action] WHOO! <_< *runs off to a weekend wedding, may be sparce*

Oh! Yeah, I was fine. Things were pretty normal here.

[Action] That's fine!

Good...that's good.

The flowers do look happier than before. [ She slips her hand in the midst of them, cupping a lily's petals for a second. ]

They do? [Still so much for him to learn.] I guess they're glad your back. It's good they're happy.

Right, there's no droopy flowers allowed! [ That includes her. She stands back up, pausing briefly to give a good scratch to Daisy--having him stay by her, so quiet but always there, is comforting right now. He gets that. ]
goldenglasses: (Who knew katchup saves lives?)

[Action] btw - I'm kinda assuming Vash has seen Daisy before thus not freaking out - okay?

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2011-09-20 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
Nope! Not in this shop at least! Only happy ones!

[Action] Works for me, he's been around a while!

[ I just felt like I was forgetting him |D ]

...Ah... [ That's...different, for her. She doesn't usually have trouble with small talk, and she racks her brain for a minute before thinking of what else she's going to do. ] I'll going over to the bakery in a little bit, and coming back. Do you want anything? Or should I just assume..."the usual"? [ Doouuughnuts. ]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Excellent!)

I could use some donuts! [PLUS the usual!]

[Action]

[identity profile] gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com 2011-09-24 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
But that is the usual! Oh--you mean more? Even you've got to have limits.
goldenglasses: (He's not laughing. He's choking.)

[personal profile] goldenglasses 2011-09-25 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
There are no limits on donuts!

[identity profile] gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com 2011-09-26 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
But think of my poor arms! Those have limits! [Ahhh, Vash. The silliness is really good at letting her be distracted for a little while. ]
goldenglasses: Maker on LJ (Hello~!)

Then you need more exercise! So they'll be strong enough!
