There's someone here with a need for friends and he'd like some very much! Will you be his friend? His name's Elliot Nightray.

((OOC: Answers will come from both Leo and isntyourfriend. Both boys are affected by the current event, no thread order unless requested, threadjacking is imminent, if you want either of the two, please put it in the subject

[seraphgoddess]

I'd be happy to be his friend!

[ Martel's that kind of person to agree to be friends with a total stranger, and her motherly instincts won't allow her to turn down the boy's request. ]

[voice]

[ishisfriend]

And he should be happy to be yours! [And this is said with equally as many smiles.]

[voice]

[seraphgoddess]

That's wonderful to hear! So is there anything specific you would like me to do with Elliot? I was thinking we could plant flowers together.

[ Anything that involves flowers and plants is fun in her mind. Though she's not sure if Elliot would have the same opinion. ]

[voice]

[isntyourfriend]

[Oh gosh, this is terrible. She's so nice and he... ugh, he actually does like flowers. This just isn't fair.]

I-I don't know anything about planting flowers.

[voice]

[seraphgoddess]

Oh! You must be Elliot! It nice to meet you.

[ So this is the Elliot the other boy was speaking of. He seems like a pleasant person. ]

You don't need to worry about that. I can teach you if you would like.

[voice]

[isntyourfriend]

You, too... [There's this part of Elliot that would very much like to decline her offer-he is a noble, dammit, planting flowers was not something he should be doing. But another part of him, under the experiment's effects, doesn't want to say no. Saying no to her would be rude.

So when he responds, he speaks a little quieter.] That... That would be nice.

[voice]

[seraphgoddess]

Oh, that's wonderful! It'll be a lot of fun; I promise!

[ Despite his low tone, she was able to hear him very clearly and would very much be remembering his words. Of course she's not going to force him if he decides to bail out at the last minute. Though she might unintentionally guilt him into doing it by sounding a bit disappointed. ]

So when would you like to start? I'm alright with any date.

[voice]

[ishisfriend]

[And just to make sure that Elliot doesn't wriggle out of this--]

As soon as possible!

[voice]

[seraphgoddess]

Then we could do it right now! Where do you live? I already have a garden so we could make one at your house.

[ Just spreading the joy of flowers to everyone. ]

[ishisfriend]

[Ooh-er. Glancing at Elliot for the briefest of moments.]

[voice]

[ishisfriend]

[And then his smile's back.]

House 53, miss. We have roses out front.

[voice]

[isntyourfriend]

Leo!

[Your master is not prepared to get his hands dirty.]

[voice ► action]

[seraphgoddess]

[ Oblivious to Elliot's dismay, she cheerfully speaks. ]

Alright, I'll be right there!

[ Without wasting another second, she closes the journal and happily walks to House 53. ]

[action] 1/2

[ishisfriend]

[He'd been falling asleep on and off seated here, but Leo's definitely awake now as he stands and grins at Elliot as he dusts himself off. Too late to back out now.]

Shall we?

[action] 2/2

[isntyourfriend]

[Ugh. Elliot wishes he could pretend that he'd fallen asleep and couldn't wake up or something. He stands up, though, and walks past his servant.]

Hurry up.

[He isn't really sure how to prepare for something like this, so he... doesn't. He simply leads his servant outside of the house to wait for their new "friend".]

[action]

[seraphgoddess]

[ Luckily it wasn't too hard to find the house. She assumes the two men outside the house were Elliot and Leo. She cheerfully waves to them and approaches the house with excitement. ]

Hello! You two must be Elliot and Leo. I'm Martel. It's nice to finally see you in person!
