Digital Domestic Saga
Who: Serph, Cielo and YOU!
When: Late morning
Where: Outside the Embryon Base, near the forest
Style: Starting in action, but anything goes!
Status: OPEN!
[If you happen to be near the the forest quadrant, then you might feel the ground shake a little. Pretty strange, huh? But nothing to worry about, right?
The localised miniature quake can be traced back to a rather plain looking three storey building that has a grey flag with a bright orange stripe hanging from a pole sticking out of a window. A short distance away from the building, there's two people standing around a hole in the ground that certainly hadn't been there just moments before. A wheelbarrow containing a rosebush with orange flowers sits not far from them, and all along the ground are unopened sacks of dirt and a plethora of those mugs, some of which have fallen onto their sides. There's a bag containing seed packets and beans on the ground, too, and a recording of Sheik's Song of Healing can be heard playing on loop from a SFC nearby.
Serph eyes the hole for a little while longer before nodding to Cielo, giving him the signal to use another Magni Bomb. Which he does. Enthusiastically.
...That sure is another miniature quake happening. But the hole looks big enough for the rose bush, now.
Yep, this is what they've been saving their Starfish Tokens for. Approach?]

[This gardening thing was more complicated than he thought it was. He heads over to the wheelbarrow and brings the rose bush closer. It's a good thing that Duke was here to tell them!]
no subject
Is this enough?
[He'll let Duke do the root loosening! Since he... actually seems to know what he's doing.]
no subject
hmn. Watch. [ So you can do this on your own next time, but not really as rude as that. Tilting the roses over, he breaks the shape of the pressed earth that came with the rose bush. ]
Does not matter of accidentally break some roots; will grow these back easier. The thick ones are the important ones. Add some water to your hole, will place the bush.
no subject
When Duke tells them to put water in the hole, Cielo obliges, pouring some water from a nearby watering can over the soil.]
no subject
like Bat.He nods in acknowledgement of Duke's last statement and watches Cielo pour the water. Though Duke had said he'll place the bush, it's quite a large one and still has thorns, so Serph will help him.]
no subject
And one bush in a hole! Yaaay. ]
A little more soil to bring the level to near even, but little lower than ground level. Allows more water to be trapped for the plant's use...
no subject
It looks great. Thank you for your help!
no subject
He, too, gives a nod in thanks.]
Did you garden in your world?
[Duke is so knowledgeable!]
no subject
Although is Serph sure his hands are fine? Duke's got some mild pricks on his own hands, so he may give a glance to the state of Serphs. ]
no subject
Something wrong?
no subject
So he tilts his head, questioning, too.]
no subject
So he doesn't offer healing. ]
Best to clean bleeding injuries when dealing with soil; many forms of fertilizer is animal dung. [ That said, he's going to study the rest of the area and their planting supplies. ]
Wish for more aid?
no subject
Well, Serph can take care of that on his own.]
Do we need anything else?
no subject
While they don't really need anything else since they intended on just spending their day puttering around their makeshift garden...
He addresses Duke.]
Only if you wish to.
[He won't say no to having Duke's presence around for longer.]
no subject
.... He can take a break form research. ]
Breaks in bookwork are occasionally needed; where next?
no subject
We have a bunch of these smaller plants. We're going to plant them in these.
[He gestures to some of the mugs on the ground.]
no subject
The cuts on his hands are already scabbing over, so he walks off to gather some of the mugs and bring them over. He and Cielo have little use for so many mugs, and it'd be a shame to waste them.]
no subject
The reason so many pots for planting have holes in the bottom is for draining - without one, the soil can not be rid of excess water, and one tends to start growing moss more than original plant. May not be hard to find a good balance; more accustomed to planting in the ground than in pots and maintaining them.
no subject
These.
[If too much water is a problem, they'll just have to be careful to not add to much.]
no subject
If we don't water excessively, will that be fine?
[Otherwise, they'll just have to find a way to make holes that won't shatter the mugs]
no subject
These may be more suited for the ground than a pot...
no subject
The beans? We could find a spot for them.
[More bombs? More bombs.]
no subject
Serph's looking out at the land within their territory. If they make too many holes, there won't be decent ground to walk on.]
Would a garden bed be sufficient instead?
no subject
If you can cut a segment free, I have a formula that may be able to lift a section out of the way.
no subject
...can we do that, Serph?
[Bombs are probably not the right tool for this kind of thing.]
