[in one of the garden rooms, it looks like someone decided to be an ass and completely trash a good portion of it. Kai is seated on a patch of fresh grass, surrounded by burnt and torn plants, paintbrush in hand. his right hand, what he normally uses, is in his lap. the paintbrush is in his left hand and he's concentrating rather hard on restoring the ruined flowers in front of him. it's difficult, as he's still getting used to using the "wrong" hand, and he fails to get the technique right a number of times before a couple of the flowers straighten weakly and attempts to bloom.]

[oh look, you've caught someone in her element- Aerith is crouched down on the other side of the room, carefully brushing the ashes of a plant away from a patch of soil. she glances at Kai once she notices him, and is curious about the paintbrush, but won't ask about it. yet.]

[seasides]

[he's content to work in quiet right now, wanting to keep all his concentration on helping restore the flowers. he hadn't expected it to be so hard to make a damn circle when using the wrong hand...]

[haveacuraga.livejournal.com]

That's very interesting magic.

[seasides]

[he blinks and looks over at her, smiling a little tiredly.]

Yeah, it is. I'm lucky to know it.

[haveacuraga.livejournal.com]

You are! I'd think I was in Heaven if I could create flowers like that.

[then again, Aerith feels that way when she's gardening in general. she gets up and walks over to get a better look at what Kai's doing.]

[Hikari's standing nearby, hands folded in front of her as she watches Kai work, making sure to stay quiet so she doesn't break his concentration.]

[seasides]

[he'll be at this for a while if she doesn't speak up, eventually throwing the paintbrush away and burying his face in that hand. only a dozen or so flowers are looking better after all that.]

[earthwaterlight.livejournal.com]

So...what happened here?

[She steps forward and kneels next to him, then notices his hand.]

And what happened to your hand?

[seasides]

No idea. I came in here and the place was like this.

[he looks down at his burnt hand still in his lap and sighs.]

It got burned.

[earthwaterlight.livejournal.com]

Ow.

[She actually winces; she'd burned herself like that cooking, but not bad enough to need badanges. She opens her mouth to ask how but has a feeling it's like what happened with Rikka(she's too young to know), so she just plops down next to Kai and mutters:]

I hate being a kid sometimes.

[Yes trying to get your mind off the frustration here.]

[Kairi's been keeping an eye on the garden all summer to make sure it stays watered, but she didn't quite expect this. She gives a sad sigh, coming over to survey the damage.]

[seasides]

[he keeps on trying to fix the flowers in front of him, slowly growing more and more frustrated when he can't get the lines down properly.]

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

...What are you doing?

[Because she's never seen any magic paintbrushes before.]

[seasides]

Trying to restore them.

[he could probably just do the wide lines straight on the ground for this, since they restore dead ground, but he's trying to teach himself to be more precise with his left hand.]

[frostedwaters.livejournal.com]

That's kind of you.

[She'll watch from here, not wanting to get in his way while he works.]

[Aqua's kind of taken aback when she sees the mess around the place, but takes a deep breath and wanders over to Kai. She crouches down nearby, getting the feeling that whatever he's doing must be too complicated to just interrupt.]

[seasides]

[it doesn't really take much concentration to do- it's just that he's using the hand he doesn't normally use. the quiet is appreciated, however.]

[stormytides.livejournal.com]

[She idly traces a hand along the ruined ground as she watches. Whenever a convenient pause comes up, though, she'll ask:]

Do you mind if I ask what you're doing?

[seasides]

You mean the magic, right? They're called the Celestial Brush techniques... another me was taught them by the sun god Amaterasu. I've got his memories, so I know them as well. There's a variety of "spells" in the set of techniques, but a few of them involve plants.

[stormytides.livejournal.com]

That's an amazing opportunity you had, then. [She smiles.] Being able to do something like that? It's impressive.

*you might notice the tiny Replica trying to stalk you, but alas, it is a very bad ninja... there may or may not be a fatbun following it as well*

[seasides]

[he does indeed notice, but he'll be quiet and focus on what he's doing~.]

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*it thinks it's doing a good job! until it trips over a tree root and faceplants in the dirt*

Ow!

[seasides]

[that light Cure that pops up is pretty much automatic by now.]

You okay?

[clockworkboytoy.livejournal.com]

*it rubs its nose, probably streaking dirt over its cheek*

Uh huh. I'm tough.
