[This past week, anyone trying to go to the okonomiyaki restaurant would find it closed, courtesy of the Malnosso kidnapping the owner and cook. However, that has changed today, today the restaurant is wide open, with a menu sheet on the door for everyone to see, it's the same menu as always though a lot of dishes seem to have been stroke out ( Read more... )

Just water them everyday and you'll be fine. [A pause as she remembers something.] You know, you should also talk to them. Plants have feelings, too.

Everyday? Won't they drown or something?

[...]

Why wouldn't I talk to them? That would make them lonely and confused when they are born and start peeking outside the dirt.

[He has been talking to them since he got the seeds, girl.]

I mean once everyday. Sorry for the confusion.

[A lopsided smile. That's just so adorable.] Well, that's good for you, then. I guess the seeds are lucky to have such a caring person like you.

Oh, okay... How much water should I use if I do it everyday? A glass of water would be good?

[There's a humming sound.]

Are there people who don't talk to them?

[That's just sad, poor plants that are ignored just because they can't answer back!]

Yeah, if they're still seeds, a glass of water should be enough.

[She sighs at his last question.] There are, unfortunately. People who don't understand that plants are also living beings.

Okay! Thank you, neesan!

[The kid just looks all enthusiastic about watering his plants.]

... I don't understand it. Why don't they understand it? They start all small and in seeds but they grow and get really pretty, some of them get really big others small, with tons of colors and forms. Just like people! And they get old and wrinkle, just like people do, before they die... People die too. How can plants not be living beings if they do all those things?

Is it because they don't talk back? Hmm... I never know what to talk with them about so I always end just telling them about what I've done or what I want to do or reading them one of my tales. They are babies yet so they must like tales, right?

No problem. Call me Ino.

[Which makes her smile. He has an interesting way of putting it and she can't help but agree with him.] You're right. You know, keep that up - reading them tales, telling them what you did during the day, treating them like the living beings they are. It's nice to know a kid like you has such a good outlook.

What's your name?

So I'm doing it right? I wasn't sure but I thought that if it was me I would like to know what the person taking care of me does and all, specially if I can't move... Also that way it doesn't feel lonely, to be inside that seed and buried in the dirt, unable to move or see anything... I want them to see me and hear me when they are born. It hurts to be born being alone.

[Alone and not knowing what he is, where he is or why he is there. Maybe he wasn't buried in the dirt, but he was still isolated. Up in a mountain where he could almost touch the sky. The sun was warm and welcoming, shining so brightly and strongly, but it wasn't there and it didn't talk to him.]

I'm Goku! Son Goku! Nice to meet you, Ino-neesan!

[She giggles.] I agree with you there. It's good you feel that way towards the seeds. I think it helps a lot that you put yourself in their place.

[With a cheerful voice that matches his optimistic outlook:] It's nice to meet you too, Goku-kun!

Do you know a lot about flowers, Ino-neesan?

Reply

[voice] piggybabe October 8 2011, 17:14:51 UTC
I actually do. Our family owns a flower shop back home so I've been fascinated over flowers ever since I was little.

[voice] justonename October 8 2011, 17:23:34 UTC
A flower shop! Like the one we have in the village' Then you know how to make pretty bouquets as well?

[voice] piggybabe October 8 2011, 17:30:06 UTC
[She nods.] I'm actually going to see if anyone's interested for some lessons. Are you one of them, Goku-kun?

[voice] justonename October 8 2011, 17:42:45 UTC
Lessons for what?

[Wait, they were talking about flowers and bouquets, how did they switch to studies?]

[voice] piggybabe October 8 2011, 17:48:42 UTC
Lessons on how to make pretty bouquets, of course!

Reply

[voice] justonename October 8 2011, 17:58:46 UTC
Aaaah! Can I learn that too? I would like it! I could make a pretty bouquet for Ucchan for when she comes back!
