[The camera catches a blurry glimpse of green with a faraway backdrop of ocean until it levels to show us this strange plant, looking rather bald and sorry. There's a heavy sigh and the image quivers again.]

...It's a no-go alright. Ruined. Just look at what that curse made us do. Fine, so it was a thousand times better than the

[She knows about Clef leaving (and she's hoping it's just for a while!) so she's not in her usual cheery demeanor.]

... It was rather fun while it lasted, though. [The curse, she meant.]

[soulofocean]

[Yes, the curse. Let's focus on the curse. It's totally about the curse.] But look at the mess it left us with...

I never thought the golden apples would end up being the Plug plant!

[willofthewinds]

I feel deeply sorry for the plants. If Ascot-san was here, he'd feel very lonely too... [Yeah, Fuu, lighten the mood with some teasing.]

[soulofocean]

...

[And it was a bullseye, Fuu.]

I shouldn't have let it make us harm this.

[willofthewinds]

[NO NO SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE CHEERING YOU UP AHHHH]

.... Umi-san. Please don't blame yourself. At least, let me share the blame since I am also involved.

[soulofocean]

But you had no idea about--- ...did I ever tell you? I don't think I did.

I'm the one who should've known better than to let any cursed-induced whatever damage something that holds dear memories.

[willofthewinds]

I was at fault too. I should have fought against the curse and not let myself be swept away by it.

[soulofocean]

Yeah, well. We both know that's downright impossible.

At least the plant took it bravely, huh? It's still in one piece!

[willofthewinds]

It certainly held its ground well. I'm sure it's not too late to bring it back to its original appearance.

[soulofocean]

Aya says he's coming over to help me care for it. So yeah. Guess there's time to undo the damage. At least we didn't end up doing anything too crazy.

[willofthewinds]

Aya-san is a very good florist, isn't he? I'm sure he'd be able to do a good job returning it to its prior state. If you discount killing a stuffed animal and a garden hose crazy.

[soulofocean]

You know it! So I have faith for this. I meant more the dangerous sort of crazy, not just embarrassing or dumb as heck crazy, but... You see my point, don't you?

[willofthewinds]

I do. [Pause, her expression softening.]

Umi-san, I will also try talking to the plant. [Translation: I also wanna help.]

[soulofocean]

Fuu... [She understands these intentions and appreciates them so much.]

Thank you. That'll be great: I bet you'll come up with clever conversations!

[willofthewinds]

I'll try to come up with various topics like illegal logging. What is its views on it and does it agree on the passed law?

[soulofocean]

...

Ehh. That's deep. Do you think... the plant will take interest in that sort of stuff? [OH FUU.]
