Both days, afternoons command_medli November 18 2011, 02:41:41 UTC
[Having heard the message, Medli is there. She's happy for the opportunity to do some honest work and get her mind off her situation and her worries, so she flies with practiced unease between the trees and picks mikans with gusto.

Yes, flies! It may seem strange that someone who is so clearly new is already doing much more than hovering, if one doesn't notice that whenever she takes off, she seems to sprout a second pair of nearly identical wings. Weird.

On both afternoons, she continues working well into the evening, long past when most others have left.]

Miss Angel-chan~!! [yes. Sanji is talking to you, girl who is soaring around the trees, completely unperturbed and waving at a tray of drinks he has on hand.]

Would you like something to drink~?

[Medli is on course to another tree when she hears someone talking to her with an odd nickname, and she looks over to see the man who has been offering drinks the past few days. She's been giving herself too few breaks to ask for any herself, but if he's come to her, it seems rude to say no...]

Oh, hello! That'd be just fine, tha-

Oof! [Yep, she's so busy looking that she flies into a branch. It's probably not reassuing to the mikans that were attached to it two seconds ago that she manages to grab the thing.]

[That was not according to plan. D8 WHOOPS.]

O-oi, are you alright? [he races over, nearly dropping the drinks in hand]

[She winces as she hears the splat of fallen fruits.] I-I'll be just fine! Don't worry!

[Which would be why she's clearly flailing around on the thing trying to pull herself up, or at least trying to not lose her grip and fall on her back. This would be so much easier if she could just fly back down!]

[Watching her struggle is not exactly reassuring. Sanji abandons the drinks on the ground, pausing only a moment to make sure they won't tip over, and then--

Well. Medli might notice the man is suddenly beside her, seeming to stand on nothing but air.]

It's alright, I won't let you fall. [He doesn't know if she truly needed his help, but he can't leave it to chance, either. If she lets him, he'll guide her back to the ground.]

[She looks at the man standing on thin air next to her and wonders if, in reality, she actually hit her head. But when she tries to get a closer look, she slips slightly, so she figures it'd be better to just roll with it.]

OK, I trust you! What is it that you need me to do?

Just let go! [Because he's got a hold of her by the waist, making sure she doesn't go sliding any farther]

Alright!

[And she does! A tiny part of her is expecting that he won't actually be there and she's going to be taking a dive for the snow, so she's a little relieved to have something actually supporting her weight. All 90 pounds of it.]

[Oh Medli, Sanji has lifted bags of food that weighted more than you.

And once she does let go, he jumps them back down to the ground covered in crunchy snow.]

Are you alright, Miss?

I'm fine! I'm sorry you had to go through all that effort for my sake, but...

[She gives herself a bit of distance, turns back toward Sanji, and bows.] Thank you so much! I don't have anything with me, but if there's any way I can ever repay your kindness, please let me know.

A-ah, you don't have to be so formal! It was my pleasure, Miss...?

[As cute as calling her Angel-chan would be, he figures a name should be first on the agenda]

It's of the utmost importance to treat everyone with respect... especially if they happen to be your rescuer! At least, that's what I think.

But right, my name! It's Medli.

Well, in that case--

[He gives her a proper bow back] It's an honor to meet you, Medli-chan~! You can call me Sanji, if you like.
