8th Meal Served [Action]

[lovely_crane]

[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

"Iroha! Hi!"

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

"Need any help?"

[lovely_crane]

*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]

"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]

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.-

[lovely_crane]

*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?

[unless_itsafarm]

Erm... Hello, Iroha. Lovely flowers.

[lovely_crane]

Thank you.

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

[artwithknives]

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

[lovely_crane]

Shiki!

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

[artwithknives]

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

[lovely_crane]

You think so? How does it look?

[expiatrice]

[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]

Hm?

*She looks up and sees the other girl*

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

[expiatrice]

That would be expected, with how hard you were focused. Are you fixing up your garden? [Somewhat of an obvious question, she realizes, but she wanted to make sure.]

[lovely_crane]

Yes. Once I am done up here, I plan to work on the backyard. But that might have to wait until later.
