[On this fine autumn day, Shizuru is out in the yard of 503 Ricardo Street, raking leaves. She looks quite content to be helping with the yardwork. In fact, she's singing as she rakes.]But black is the color of my true love's hair

[Natsuki had been on her way out of her house next door when the sound of someone singing caught her ear. Specifically, the sound of Shizuru singing. So she goes to take a look, and immediately looks confused at the scene before her.]

... Shizuru?

[getawaywith]

[Shizuru stops singing and waves, beaming, at Natsuki. How could she not? Natsuki has been her best friend here in Mayfield for as long as she can remember!]

Oh, hello, Natsuki!

[crystalrazing]

[Yep, something is definitely off. Let's see if there's a subtle way to address it...]

How are you doing, Shizuru?

[getawaywith]

[There is really no subtle way to go about this.]

I'm doing fine. Isn't it a lovely day?

[stops raking long enough to smile at Mashiro]

Oh, Mashiro. How nice of you to take in a new pet!

[onlythesong]

Mikoto's not new. He's from home. I've had him since I was little.

[getawaywith]

Home...?

[stops raking to wave]

Hello, Johan!

[hungry_monster]

Hello there.

How are you feeling?

[vassalation]

[ just watching, because not!wife was already a little creepy but this is taking his opinion up by three or four points. ]

[ occasionally pausing to blow a kiss to her darling husband ]

[vassalation]

[ just this face. ]

You. . . okay?

[getawaywith]

I'm fine, darling!

Oh, I know I should stay inside and cook and clean, but it was such a nice day out...you're not angry at me, are you?
