- Just go sleep on the couch tonight. You don't want to know why.
- Hide it, no one saw!

[ Like everyone else, Lightning wasn't really sure what to think about the odd message that showed up at the front of her

[ And here's Hubert in all too casual clothes, including a short-sleeved shirt as he considers her first question. There's only so much he can offer when he's incapable of reading anything. ]

The guidelines may have something to do with astrological horoscopes. However, I have no way of confirming this without cross references.

[ She doesn't know Hubert well enough to know if that's 'normal' or not, though she is not quuiite as stand-offish as she's been before towards him. Problem is... conversation's once more about something she doesn't know anything about- ]

'Astrological horoscopes?'

[ A-wha-wha-what, now? It's a wonder she's able to parrot that back without trouble, really. ]

[ How to put this . . . He decides that it's more important to point out the loose connection than to sweat the details too much just this once. ]

Signs based on interpretations of the relationship between astrological phenomena and the human world. They're believed to be major determinants of specific personality traits. There are twelve signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.

Stars?

[ While he's talking, now she remembers having heard that term before in part-- or so she thinks. Astrological is about the same thing as astronomy, right? ]

There actually any truth in that?

[ She sounds pretty dubious, but considering the sort of thing that runs as 'normal' from where she grew up...? ]

[ Sometime while Light is moping on the couch, Aerith is going to sit on part of it. She is also going to start distracting the tortoise with bits of lettuce, placing them out in a little trail to get it moving along the floor. It's cute to watch, okay. ]

[thestormishere]

[ And Lightning just watches, after a minute or two pulling her knees up to her chest and folding arms up over and around them. Face remains as serious as ever, though. ]

... What are you trying to do?

[ Well okay, she can sort of tell already... but why? ]

[gardenerofgaia]

[ 1: getting Light to stop moping so much. And hey, if she is paying more attention to Aerith and tortoise antics, it's at least a partial success?

2: ]

Training him for a race with a hare.

[ ... No that's not it, she's just messin' with Light. It's really that the guy needs to eat anyway and this is an entertaining way to do it she would love those silly pointless youtube clips of pets. ]

I doubt that one's going to be winning races any time soon.

[ Nope, apparently she doesn't get the reference-- or rather, even if she did... she's Lightning. With as slow as that thing's plodding along? Maybe if Aerith put him up against a plant or something... ]
