Back to Square One

[After being nearly tortured mentally by an Axel and, just recently, physically attacked by a apprently still bitter Saix, this Namine has decided that she may want to take a break from the social scene here lest she get hurt again. She now has reverted to sitting and drawing in her little corner again, avoiding the world.]

[She sighs and rubs her neck, which is still sore from Saix grabbing it and choking her.]

Back to this, huh...

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[At first, watches in awe at the vine growing around his arm. She had never seen powers like those before.]

[Looks up at him] I don't blame you for not doing it. Destroying things and people isn't proving strength in any way at all. Only the weak and scared do that. [For a second, a bitter expression seemed to flash across her face for a split second.]

[Fiddles with the sketchbook still in her arms. Wonders what to draw.]

Any control though...over anything...seems powerful enough.

[The vines began unravellings onto the floor, taking the form of a human-like creature made of vines. It bowed. ]

He is thanking you for your compliments as well... The vines, the plants, they all can hear us. They have feelings, just like we do... I do not control or order. I merely ask and request, treating them with as much respect as they treat me.

[ Laughs and claps her hands. Decides to curtsey in reply.]

It sounds like you have a mutual relationship with them...That's nice. It makes for the perfect partnership.

[Has a lightbulb moment] So that's why people say plants will grow more if you talk to them...is it?

Yes! Exactly! They love to be spoken too. It helps them grow closer to you!

[What a smart kind spirit this Namine... But he has yet to run into a Namine that was anything but sweet and intelligent. ]

But that is enough about me... Please, tell me about yourself. What makes you unique?

[He smiles. ]

[Smiles and looks at the rose again. She will deffinitely make sure to keep that in mind.]

[Heh.]

Unique?...Trust me, there is not one thing special about be. [chuckles, as it that was a lighthearted joke]

I'm like most other Namines; I sit, I draw, I can be ignored easily, and am seemed to be hated still by the Organization.

[She smirks and begins to sketch again.]

You draw~? How lovely!

[Oddly enough, you are the first Namine he has met who draws... ]

I would be ever so honored to see some of your masterpieces! Oh please oh please!

[He's jumping up and down, clapping his hands together. ]

['S that so?...Interesting]

I do, but I wouldn't necessarily call them masterpieces.

[Can't help but smile and laugh at his enthusiasm.]

You're more than welcome to look, but please, don't expect anything too special. [Chuckles] I'm only average.

[With that, she hands you the sketchbook, now closed.]

[Marluxia takes the book and slowly began flipping through it. With every page he smiles, a small 'ohh!' every time he flips. To be honest, it is very easy to impress Marluxia...isn't it obvious? ]

I wish I could draw this well... I am still at a stick-figure level...

[He laughed a bit. ]

[She figures he must be if he is 'Ooh'-ing at her drawings. Nevertheless, she can't deny that hearing praise for her work makes her feel good.]

I think you're complimenting me a bit much. [giggles]

You get better at it after a while. Drawing is pretty much the only thing I ever did back home so now I'm at least decent at it.

Decent?! Try phenomenal... Accuracy is secondary in art... In true art. It is the passion that is portrayed...the feelings and thoughts of you, the artist. I see them in your Art.

[He smiled, handing it back to her. ]

[She's a little surprised. For someone who would be easily impressed, that was an extremely insightful comment. Althiugh she had come to realize he was very intelligent, if not wise.]

Thank you.

[She has a small smile as she reaches out to take her artbook back. Yet as her arm extends, she softly cries out in pain. The sudden added weight of the book seems to have strained her arm, which was already hurt. As a result, she accidentaly drops the book and retracts her arm, wincing from the slight pain.]

[He managed to catch the book before it fell, but a concerned look came to his face. ]

Ah-! I am sorry, that was so stupid. I have forgotten! Are you all right?

[Of course she wasn't... That was a stupid question. ]

[She rubs her arm a little, holding it as if to block any incoming pain. She tries to force a small smile even though her eyes are still closed from the pain. She slowly opens them and nods. She doesn't want to worry him.]

Y-yeah...I'm not sure what that was.....[shrugs it off]

I guess I should've been more careful there.

[He's still frowning. ]

... I wish I was a Healing God. Now you see how useless I am...

[Oh...Oh But wait! He places his hand on the ground and slowly lifts it. As he does, a small plant grows. Similar to the rose in it's shimmering colors. ]

I was not blessed with the specific gift to heal, but their are many plants in Nature that choose to lend their powers to ease pain. This plant tells me she can help. The petals are sweet like candy she tells me. ]

[He smiled. Feel free to try it if you want. He is not forcing it upon you. The plant begins leaning towards you a bit as if insisting to help. ]

[She watches as he brings another wondrous plant in their presence. smiling as it--or rather she--leans towards her, she looks at him.]

Trust me. You are anything but useless.

[bends down and reaches out her good hand tenatively.]

Do I...just pluck a leaf? I don't want to...hurt her.

Your concern is very much appreciated by her. But I did not demand that she help you... She wants to.

[He just smiles. The flower would be smiling to if she could...and it would hurt a little bit. But that was the sacrifice she was willing to make. ]

[Looks at him and then stares at the flower. She was lovely to look at and her generosity made her all the more charming. Contemplates leaving the flower alone when she feels the pain in her arm rise up again.]

O-ow...[winces slightly

She nibbles her bottom lip, feeling slightly guilty as she pulls of a petal, as gently as she can. I hope you can forgive me for that. holding the petal, she looks up at him. ]

How do I...use it? Do I eat it?

[Another frown at her pain, but then he smiles. ]

All you have to do is eat it. She tells me it will take a few minutes for the nutrients to reach the pain and ease it.

[nods] Okay.

[With faith, she opens her mouth and stuffs the flower petal inside. Chewing it, she realizes that the petal is sweet and psychologically she begins to feel okay. She swallows and smiles at the flowe.]

Thank you so much.

[ She gently reaches out and pets the flower in gratitude.]

[The flower slowly leaned over, bowing towards her. ]

She said, "You are very welcome."

[The flower slowly seemed to disappear into the ground... She was not gone forever though. Whenever Marluxia needed her power, she would again appear. But until then...sleepy time for her. ]

I hope it would relieve the pain you are experiencing...and I am sorry I could not do more.

[Watched as the flower retreated to her underground home and even waved a little.

She smiled at Marluxia.] You have done than I needed. Thank you. My pain's going away now.

[She wasn't lying. She could truly stretch her arms out now and not feel a thing.]

She's pretty amazing.

[He nods with a smile. ]

I will be sure to tell her next time she is awakened.

[She smiles, thanking him.]

I can see why you get along with the plants so much.

Were you always like that?

As long as I can remember... I was born a God, but it was not until i matured until i learned that my true connection is with vines. That is why my mother always called me the Maestro of Vines because of what control I have over them.

[A small smile as he once again, he extends his hand, that same vine as before snaked out of his wrist and began coiling about on the floor until it was taller than the both of them combined. They almost seemed to be alive... ]

Though i connect with all of Natures plants...Vines are the type that seem to respond in all forms... Caring and loving, as i treat them... Or...

[He snapped his fingers and the vines suddenly sprouted sharp thorns, leaking some sort of fluid. When the fluid touched the ground, it made a loud sizzling sound... ]

This is what my 'Godly' power is. This is what can cause such great distruction and despair to an entire world. But I would never senslessly use it... Never.

[And another snap, and the thorns disappeared. ]

[Watches in utter awe as the vine plant grows above her, stretching her neck back to get the full scope of it.]

Amazing...A God with this kind of power...

[Steps back a bit in surprise as the thorns jet out, making sure to avoid any dropping acidic looking fluid.]

So they can either be your friend...or weapon?

[Smiles as the thorns disappear.]

If that's so, I'm glad you're a kind-hearted one.
