[The communicator is steady in its recording, as the feed shows a beautiful sight. The now wilted tree that grew in one of the rooms of Horton 105 was still decorated with the bright red flowers, glossy petals shimmering even in the dim light. They hung across the branches, though the branches themselves were no longer bearing

That's...a lot of flowers.

That really is a lot of flowers

You want to press one and name them? You really do love that tree don't you?

[text] lmfao i saw nothing.

[mercifulsmile]

It was really very different. The flowers smell like summer. Would you like some? I have more than enough to give away!

And it was Mago's tree too, so I had to take good care of it. I know he wouldn't really care much if I didn't, but he'd be happier if I did.

[wears_a_torc]

They sound nice, but it's okay thanks.

You must have taken really good care of it to get that many flowers!

It's a shame the trees are dieing anyway.

I did. I even spoke to it. Another pal of mine said it was given to me for a reason, so I shouldn't abandon it.

[witchoftheweek]

No one owns it, but I am the librarian.

I believe there are a few...blank books here that can be used.

[mercifulsmile]

Would it be alright if I had one?

[witchoftheweek]

I suppose you may.

[mercifulsmile]

Oh, thank you very much! Shall I go to the library now?

[hakai_aniki]

What is 'Divine Mercy?'

[mercifulsmile]

Oh, it's this -- [And she turns the video on again and you get a nice steady close up of the bracelet on her wrist.~] I fight with it.

[hakai_aniki]

[Saburo studies the bracelet with small curiosity. That doesn't look anything like a weapon... but it could surely be more dangerous than it seems.]

I assume it's defensive or has healing capabilities.

[mercifulsmile]

[Oh, definitely. She may not be the strongest physically, but those bracelets pack a punch when she uses it for magic.]

Both. It can attack and defend, actually.

[tenkai_soul]

Huh...

You look good in red.

[mercifulsmile]

I do?

[mercifulsmile]

Thank you, Tir!

[tenkai_soul]

Eh heh, well, it was the thirst thought that came to my head, so...
