♪ eleventh hymn. [Action/Voice]

[seleniahymn]

[The journal had laid open in her lap for quite a while as Tear tried to put her thoughts together, as she had for the past several days when she tried to figure out the best way to go about this. It was only just now that he decided to go through with it, rather than attempting to orchestrate a formal apology; it wouldn't seem genuine if she did

[While wandering the plaza, Tear is likely to bump into this little thing if she's too preoccupied in her thoughts. He's munching on a bag of potato chips from the grocery store while on his way to hang out by the river.]

[action]

[seleniahymn]

[Perhaps it was her soldier instincts that make her look down as she walks about the plaza, or maybe it was her soft spot for all things cute that prevented her from knocking him over completely. Whatever it was, Tear notices the poor little thing as she regains her balance, eyes full of concern as she bends down on her knees to check on him.]

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to… [He’s so small!] Are you hurt?

[action]

[bemyused]

[Pommy shakes his head as he gets to his feet.]

N-no, Pommy's fine! [Although...] But...Pommy dropped all the chips!

[Indeed, most of the bag of chips is spilled out onto the ground. There's probably only a few little crumbs left inside.]

[action]

[seleniahymn]

[Well now she's feeling all the guilt. How foolish of her, she should have noticed him sooner than she had!]

I'm sorry. I you'd like, I can go to the store and bring you some more?

[action]

[bemyused]

Oh, could you? These chips were on a high shelf, so Pommy was too short to get to them without help...

action]

[seleniahymn]

[Of course she would, most adorable thing!] Don't worry. Do you want to wait here or will you accompany me to the store?

[Please say you'll accompany her.]

[action]

[bemyused]

[Your wish is Pommy's command!]

Pommy will go with you! That way Pommy can show you where Pommy found these. [Never mind that she could probably have guessed just by searching for something that looks like what's currently lying on the ground.]

[action]

[seleniahymn]

[Smiling, Tear motions for him to begin following her, making sure to keep a close eye on him and any others in the plaza who may bump into him as she did.]

Pommy is your name, I assume?

[action]

[bemyused]

Yep! [Cute girl knows Pommy's name! He is pleased.] What's your name?

[action]

[seleniahymn]

I'm Tear. [… Okay, she has to ask.] Do you mind if I carry you along the way to the store?

[action]

[bemyused]

Myu, Pommy doesn't mind! [He's a little surprised at being asked this question, but like hell he's going to turn down being carried by a cute girl. THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVERRRRR]

[action]

[seleniahymn]

[Thus Tear wastes no time in kneeling down and opening up her arms, offering Pommy to climb into them rather than just picking him up quickly.

BEST DAY EVERRRRR]

[action]

[bemyused]

[And Pommy will scurry in to be picked up. 8D]

Thanks a lot, Tear! You're really nice.

[action]

[seleniahymn]

It's nothing, really. [And with Pommy secure in her arms, Tear continues on a stern course toward the grocery store.]

[action]

[bemyused]

[As they're walking the short distance to the grocery store, Pommy pipes up again.]

So how long has Tear been in Luceti for?

[action]

[seleniahymn]

How long? Let's see... [The calendar here was so much shorter than Auldrant's and even know she is caught off guard by it.]

According to the calendar of this world, I've been here exactly eleven months.
