I just wanted to let you know how much I value our friendship. 🌸💕
You are like a beautiful flower 🌼🌺🌷 in my life, adding colour 🖍and joy 🥳 to each day. 🌤🌨🌜
Thank you for being there for me during the winter 🌨️, spring 🌷, summer ☀️, and fall 🍁. You truly are a friend for all seasons. ❄️🌸☀️🍂
Let's spread kindness like a garden full of beautiful flowers! 🌻🌹
Please pass this ✉️ message ✉️ on to 3 👯♀️ special friends 👯♀️ who brighten up your world! 🌈👭👬👫 If you don't, you will turn into a bitter gourd 🍆🥒 and no one will want to be your friend. 😢 Send it to people now! My neighbour's eggplant 🍆🍆🍆 also turned into a worm 🐛🐛🐛 because he ignored it! 😱
You don't have to forward the message if you don't want to, though! At least, I haven't heard of any magic here that transfers through phones... [ Said like someone who's been on the receiving end of said magic. ] I just think it's a cute message.
I'm pretty sure I'm not going to turn into a gourd... though I suppose I can't be too careful. I've seen magic along these lines before, in the last world I was in.
[ On the 24th, Rui will find a gift basket of sorts left by the front door of his place. In it is a large bouquet of geraniums, some treats from Moondrop, and a very soft and cute platypus plushie.
There's also a card that reads: ]
Rui-kun, happy birthday! I'm happy to have met you here. And I'm looking forward to creating a brand new stage with you, and showing all of Ellipsa the shows only we can put on.
- Tsumugi
PS: if you'd like to do anything to celebrate together, please let me know! I'll keep my schedule open for you.
[Rui is surprised to see the gift basket. He reads the card and smiles. He puts the flowers in a vase and picks up the plushie before pulling out his phone and texting his friend.]
thank u 4 the presents :D
i would like to do something together
perhaps go 2 the theater or the botanical gardens?
[Prism Lake is one that he hasn't gotten the chance to visit, and when he finally arrives, he wishes he'd of made the trip sooner. The beauty of the sun reflecting off of the water's surface is a sight to behold, radiating as beautifully as the sun itself. He can even see spot the different colored fish in the lake from time to time, and makes a note to come back here again when he's not doing something for pay- it's a great spot for just a visit to get away from the mundane life in the city.
But he's also here to do a job, and it's best to start. But before he gets the chance, he notices someone with a drone of sorts...he's still getting used to technology here, but at least it's not really weird for him to see a device like that at this point. He walks over, peering at the device, but also doesn't he know this guy...?]
Huh! Interesting...if you don't mind me asking, what's this for?
[Childe seems genuinely intrigued, seems like something a science dude from the Akademiya would make or the Doctor...]
[Rui chuckles, less at Childe's question and more at the joy of being able to talk about what he is doing. He loves to share his interests with anyone who will listen.]
I've come by to gather jars of pollen for a quest, However, there are supposed to be aggressive wasps around. Well...Wasps survive off of the sugars in pollens and nectars so!
[Rui sets the drone down on the ground and pulls out a remote control.]
I have filled a compartment in this drone with sugar water- [He points to a closed off section of the drone.] right here- and when I'm ready, I'll have it open and fly off, hopefully, leading the wasps away so that I can safely gather the pollen. There's even an auto pilot feature that will allow it to move without me telling it to!
If you're out here too, does that mean you're on the same quest?
[He was warned about the wasps. Rainbow Wasps is what they were called, but for a man who's faced down countless horrors in the Abyss, what are a bunch of wasps going to do? Famous last words.]
You don't mind if I accompany you, would you? I am doing the very same, and it's like the old Ellipsa saying- two pairs of hands are better than one.
[Is that really how the saying goes though, Childe...?]
You can call me Tartaglia. The pleasure's all mine.
[He gives a friendly smile back, before surveying over the edge of the lake. With Rui here, this should be a piece of cake. Easiest money he'll of made here so far.]
With the introductions now out of the way, shall we? I really am constantly in awe of a lot of the marvelous things this world has to offer- something like this isn't exactly available to the public back where I'm from.
Really? I find they're rather handy, which is why I end up making so many of them.
But you're right, let the show begin~
[He pilots the drone with his remote control long enough to get it in the air, and get the attention of the wasps. Once he's sure its's working, he switches it to auto pilot and watches the drone lead the wasps away.]
We should be good to collect all the pollen we want now. When we're done I'll have the lid close and call it back.
[He pulls out his first jar and gets to work collecting pollen.]
[Lately, Tsukasa has been spending a lot more time at Wonder✩Blooming, even more than he used to. It's practically become his second home. Maybe his primary home, given that he's been napping there more and more frequently? Today being a perfect example. Tsukasa doesn't realize his eyelids have become heavy or shut. He doesn't notice himself sinking his head into the pile of fabric he's been working on sewing as it becomes a makeshift pillow.
He drifts off there, waiting for Rui. He needs to ask him how he can help. What he can do.
It's weird. It's hard for him to wrap his head around, that senpai and senpai's husband aren't there. They simply returned to their world. Rui will have his hands full, so he...he has to help him...
Tsukasa's loud snores fill the the entire theatre.]
[Rui has been running errands almost nonstop today. Trying to keep Wonder✩Blooming afloat without his more experienced friend has been difficult to say the least. He's still not sure what to think about Tsumugi and Kazunari being gone, so he does his best to push it to the back of his mind. They're in the past now, and looking back will not help him. He finally is able to make it back to the theater with his arms full and a half finished to do list. When he gets inside, he hears the loud snoring, and immediately recognizes it as Tsukasa's. When he sees him asleep on the fabric, he's filled with this odd warm feeling. He doesn't know how well he'd be able to keep the theater open without all the help he's been providing. He does his best to put what he bought away quietly, his soft smile slowly becoming mischievous as he does so. Yes, perhaps his friend is just what he needed today. When he's done with his task, he taps Tsukasa on the shoulder.]
Sleeping while sewing? I didn't realize there was such a technique. You must truly be talented to be able to do such a thing, Tsukasa-kun. And to have the confidence to do it with the theater's resources no less~
[Tsukasa starts from his rest, back stiff as a rod and eyes wide and alert. It takes him longer for his mind to play catch-up, but when he does his cheeks flush with embarrassment. Had he fallen asleep?!
He doesn't notice the stray piece of thread that's gotten tangled in his hair, or the bits of glitter stuck to his face. Rui is hard at work as usual, and here he is, dozing off. That won't do!]
I see that I convinced you. Are you impressed by-- [His smug smile is hidden by a yawn.] My sleeping act?
[His voice booms, ear-shattering and very much awake.
...Ah. But before he can rattle on about how a true star can react convincingly in the moment, his eyes fall on Rui's and he looks down at his shoulder.]
[Rui is going to display the seashell on a shelf and due to how active he is, the water bottle will most definitely be seeing some use before too long.
For Rinku, Rui gives a small, round robot that could fit on one hand. It's little more than toy compared to some of his creations, but he's hoping the concept is cute enough for Rinku to appreciate. It can roll itself around, wave its arms, and play music from a flash drive (the drive goes into its head and its supposed to look like a mohawk).]

Early Oct, The Pollen Season
