Action/Video - Jardin Verdoyant

[greenmagick]

[Video]

Um... Hello. I'm Terra Branford. I don't know if we've met but I've opened my flower shop here in Attleton today. So if you'd like to come in and see I'd be honored.

It's called Jardin Verdoyant. It can be found with a blue rose on the sign.

I'm also looking for people to hire to help me garden as well as work the front of the shop. If you are interested please let me know.

Thank you.

[A quick bow and the feed ends.]

[It really is a lovely shop. The front is open for people to wander in and look at the collection of flowers. Terra's managed to grab a few from all of the archways though they've been carefully pampered to handle the environment of their new home. Terra is fusing with one of the displays making sure that everything is perfect.

It is as she imagined and she couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. She does hope to have some help but for the moment she can handle the store front and the green house.

When someone walks up she'll smile her usual shy grin. She isn't the most practice saleswoman so it's a little awkward but she's earnest in her attempts.]

[Upon hearing the announcement, Athrun decides to pay a visit. After all, he ought to visit her in person after that conversation they had on the network upon her arrival.

When he arrives, he'll smile back and nod in her direction.]

Hello again.

[purered]

The greenhouse looks lovely, Miss Branford. Some of the specimens you've collected are utterly fascinating.

[Terra smiles.]

Hello

[She is a little worried that no one would.]

It's nice of you to stop by.

[Video]

[greenmagick]

Thank you!

Speaking with you has helped a lot. I wish there was a way that I could repay you.

[Video]

[purered]

You've already been most gracious, Miss Branford. I'm more than happy to do whatever I can to help.

[Video]

[greenmagick]

If you ever have free time I'd love for you to look at the green house.

[He probably knows more about growing things than she does.]

I'd pay you if you would like compensation. I'd hate for you to do things and not get paid for it.

[Terra has no other useful skills to say thank you with.]

[Klaus looks so happy, Terra, you just made his day.]

I would be delighted. If you're still hiring and my service is satisfactory, I would be glad to stay on board.

[Video]

[greenmagick]

Of course.

I could imagine anyone else more suited to tend the flowers. Whenever you have time I can show you the green house.

[He's of course welcome to grow whatever he wants.]

[infinitejustice]

I thought I'd take the chance to meet you in person after that last conversation we had.

You've settled in, then, I take it?

[greenmagick]

Yes.

[She is happy to be able to meet him in person this time.]

Have you been doing well?

[Video]

[purered]

Would this afternoon be alright with you, Miss Branford?

[He's gonna grow her all the flowers.]

[ Porrim arrives with a spring in her step and in a cute little grey dress with a bow. She browses around until she spots Terra. ]

Hello+. Is this the lo+vely sho+p Klaus was telling me abo+ut? I lo+ve the deco+r.

[Video]

[greenmagick]

Yes.

[Her smile brightens.]

I'll see you then.

Action;

[greenmagick]

I think so.

[Terra flashes her a shy smile.]

You're a friend of Klaus?

[azaleafae]

A flower shop?

[Azalea's eyes brighten. After living in the Nature realm all her life, flower are always right up her alley.]

I will surely have to visit.

[greenmagick]

I'd like that.

[Terra smiles.]

Hopefully you'll find flowers that you like. If not I can try and look or breed some.

[She's only just now learning about breeding flowers.]

[infinitejustice]

More or less. Work has been keeping me busy as of late, so I've been spending most of my time at the office or at home.

Where are you staying now?

[greenmagick]

There are two rooms above the shop. I plan to stay there.

[She pauses.]

Where do you work?

[infinitejustice]

I work for Aster Technologies, over in Nova City. I develop computer hardware for them.

[He pauses this time.]

Back home I was actually a soldier, but I didn't see any place for soldiers here. But I had an education in engineering, so I pursued that.

[azaleafae]

Oh, I'm sure they're all beautiful. I've lived in the Viridian Labyrinth all my life, so I've developed a real fondness for nature.

[True to his word, Klaus stopped by in the afternoon, carrying a pot of day lillies.]

Good afternoon, Miss Branford.

[Action]

[greenmagick]

[Come afternoon, she’s getting ready to close up. It’s a little early but she decided that her hours of operation would be at sunrise and sunset. It makes it easier for her and hopefully the customer’s too though her hours might change depending on the season.

When Klaus walks in she’s inspecting a pink rose that has decided to droop. She lifts the rose from the water and fashions it to hang upside-down to dry. She wipes her fingers on the white apron tied around her waist to dry them and then looks up at Klaus.]

Good afternoon, I’m glad you were able to find the shop okay.

[She smiles softly, making sure her rose is secure, before moving away from the counter.]

[greenmagick]

Me too.

[Her smile softens.]

I really love nature.

[greenmagick]

I think that’s good.

[She pauses.]

I mean, a place without a need for soldiers must be peaceful… right? [She sounds so hopeful.]

[infinitejustice]

[Athrun takes a deep breath before replying.]

I wish it were that simple. Unfortunately, there are things that happen, but most of them have been beyond my ability to deal with. I may be a talented soldier back home, but here I'm only good for tactics and maintaining a defense.

Shortly before you arrived, a host of spirits attacked. Nova City was unaffected, so people could find safety there; but the spirits could only be destroyed through spiritual means. And I don't have that kind of power.
