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?]

Nice to see they've found a use for these things.]
no subject
Herbs are used in cooking and medicine.
[...Apparently, anyway. He's never cooked before. He doesn't know if Zelda cooks but...]
You can have some when they've grown.
no subject
[She turns over the seed packets to read about them, then goes over to the dirt and makes sure it's aerated.]
Be sure to not pack it in too tightly. It makes it difficult for new roots to take hold.
no subject
He's watching and nodding as Zelda explains the importance of not packing the soil too tightly.]
How do you know how much to pack it?
[He doesn't want to make things tough for the plants. :c]
no subject
Serph's listening for the response as he collects more of the mugs and brings them over.]
no subject
[This is cheering her up more than she thought it would, or maybe her own Song of Healing has more of an effect than previously observed?]
no subject
Ah, okay.
[He starts filling more mugs, careful not to make them too packed.]
no subject
Wait if she never had to take care of potted plants, does this mean all the flowers she planted were directly in the ground?]
How did you break the ground for your roses?
[She seemed surprised at what they were doing initially.]
no subject
[A wry look at their holes.]
Or explode one.
no subject
[Hopefully not those little brightly colored plastic shovels for building sandcastles!]
no subject
Crouching down and taking one of the mugs Cielo's filled. He prods at the soil, digging a small hole with his finger before passing it to Zelda to stick a seed in it.]
no subject
[Zelda was always relegated to the less labor-intensive tasks back when she lived in the palace. She was certainly never allowed near objects that she could possibly lose control of and smack herself in the head with! She puts in the seed and covers it carefully, then sings the Song of Storms. Without the harp, it only calls a tiny bit of mist over the plant, but it still causes it to sprout up just the tiniest bit.]
no subject
...and yeah, don't mind him, he's just going to be amazed. Amazed at Zelda's singing, at the mist, and at the sprout.]
no subject
Like Cielo, he's enchanted by the song and stills, quietly listening to it. He watches the mist, noting how the seed sprouts, but dares not interrupt the song.]
no subject
I, ah, did not mean it to be a distraction... it just helps the plant get a good start.
no subject
Oh, it's no problem at all, ja? I liked it a lot.
[He got to hear lovely singing and saw a plant sprout today!]
no subject
We've only heard one song before arriving here.
[Songs remind him of Sera and the calm her singing gives them. Perhaps it is a little masochistic to keep the Song of Healing playing from his SFC, when it reminds him of the people who aren't here.
Serph leans over to have a closer look at the sprout. It's one thing to see it in a book, entirely another to see it for himself.]
no subject
[She holds out the mug to Serph so he can look at the tiny sprout. It's just the beginnings of a proper plant, its first tiny little leaf isn't even unfurled yet.]
no subject
[He'd like to learn some songs! Worry not, he's got more musical talent than his tone deaf leader.]
no subject
Serph takes the mug and holds it up at eye level to get a closer look. It's hard to resist the urge to lightly prod at it. He does give Zelda a small nod in acknowledgement of her offer; he'd like that!
...Though he'll probably listen to her teach Cielo rather than participate himself.]
no subject
[She motions for them to begin pouring the soil into the mugs again, singing the lyrics this time instead of just humming the tune somewhat indistinctly.]
Sing a sweet melody
Then everybody will see
Thunder rain and wind
The song of storms begins
From the sky to the ground
Rain is falling all around
The time of the storm has come
In a time of despair
Shadows singing in the air
Telling of a time when the sun would shine
Thunderclaps resonate
Lightning flickers like a flame
Singing out a song of storms
no subject
He likes this song. The melody is very different from what he usually hears around the bubble, and the lyrics are lovely. He especially likes the parts about thunder and lightning.]
no subject
By the time he turns it off, Zelda's already started singing, so he listens from where he is. It's not until she's done singing that he quietly rejoins the gardening party.]
no subject
character from a Zelda gamevery patient person, Zelda has no trouble repeating the song for them to hear throughout the planting process. It seems to encourage plant growth and causes most of the seeds to become tiny seedlings. Her dress is soaked by the time they've made it through a few more mugs, though. Even the small amount of mist accumulates if she keeps repeating the song.]Ah, this is... wetter than I had expected.
no subject
Will that be a problem?
[The plants aren't in danger of drowning, are they?]
