[ when the video feed begins, asa is apparently deep in the oxygen garden, dressed in the clothing he arrived from his world with. his little black antlers have been wrapped in ribbon and pretty silver charms that chime when he moves his head, and there's a vine covered in unusual bright orange flowers that seems to be growing around his fingers. it's weaved between them, the flowers opening slowly as he finds a tree-limb for it to cling to instead.

he glances back at the video, then, smile a little breathless as he pushes his hair back from his face. ]


The gardens are really very pretty for a-- a spaceship. I.. [ a small, embarrassed twitch, burying his hands in the hem of his tunic self-consciously. ] It made me think, though, that.. this is the only place on the ship that-- that seems to have anything growing. And.. um. I know it's only a little thing, but.. if anyone's interested, I think I could set up little indoor gardens for the rooms. I.. have an extremely green thumb.

[ his hands go white-knuckled, self-conscious as he glances down, away from the camera. ] It's.. nice, not having to.. to be ashamed of-- [ he trails off, then blushes, shaking his head. ] Well, nevermind.

[ he reaches up, then, turning the feed off. ]

[Asato's eyes are fixed on that vine and the flowers that bloom on it; a kind he doesn't remember seeing around here before. He's instantly gripped with fascination, and suspects that there must be some sort of life-giving magic at work here.]

You can make plants grow?

[Completely serious question, asked with wide eyes and perked ears to match.]

That's... lovely, Asa.

[Staaaaare. Delicate creature, why are you here on this ship of nightmares?]

[ Oh. Alayne is delighted both by the adornment of Asa's modest antlers and by the prospect of gardens as well. ]

How very clever of you, Asa, [ she says with a modest smile. Alayne looks tired, much more tired than Asa's ever seen her be before, but she tries to keep her expression bright. ] All this metal could use a bloom or two.

[He smiles. Certainly a nice sight in the midst of this chaos, especially as of late.]

It would also be just as pretty and lovely having indoor gardens. That's quite a gift you got there.

[ Kasumi, admirer of pretty and decorative things that she is, is impressed. ]

Now there's a talent worth having.

[Oh, he's loving it! Not exactly the same kind of green finger, but definitely sharing the kind of finger that livens things up. When you brush the whole re-dead factor aside, he finds the similarity nice and somewhat relieving.

And he chuckles.
]

I mean it! But hey— [Lifting slightly in his chair, as if he could actually follow the cowering figure on the other side.] Sorry, I didn't mean to... em, so, can you only make plants grow?

[ If Kasumi switched the video feed on, she'd be nodding. As is, she clearly sounds like she agrees. ]

People underestimate how much having something beautiful around can lift their mood, I think.

Really?

It's possible it could work for other things?

Perhaps, if you would be so kind, you could spare a few flowers for Alayne. It would bring her cheer, I think.

[ He's less interested in an indoor garden and moreso in the vine growing around his finger - a power. A pretty neat one, it seems. But the last part catches his attention, seeming so used to the things he and the others had said before. ]

Not having to be ashamed of being different? [ Mutant and proud and all that. ]

[Not human at all, actually--but the feeling is very much mutual, and he appears to be at ease, inquisitive rather than defensive or afraid.]

That's really amazing!

[Asato's face moves closer to try and get a better look.]

How do you do that?
northerner: (farwells.)

I'm not certain. Perhaps you'd best ask her to pick before planting.

[ once he'd known, but sansa had grown older, and people changed. suppose he picked the wrong plants? ]

[Things had been hard for Russia for the last few weeks. Between the already bleak conditions the on the ship, the loss of several more nations and oh yeah that whole demon thing, he'd spent a day recuperating from the exorcism and sudden freedom of being in control of body and mind before he'd gone looking for some sort of distraction. Which is how he'd ended up in the oxygen gardens, eyes closed, fingers trailing through leaves, until he heard the soft chime of silver on silver and the equally soft stutter of a semi-familiar voice.

He glaces up, catches sight of long, long hair and inky tines of antlers and blinks in startled remembrance. Ah, at least this one the demon hadn't messed with, infatuated by the pretty face and compliments of it's -his- eyes. There's a mostly quiet moment where he trails fingers over a fern and let's the young man speak, but relatively soon as he's done Russia pipes up, voice soft and hesitant despite the too worn roughness to it. His accent catches at his words and it takes a false start of his speaking his own language (he goes flustered, color high on his cheeks as he starts again) before he actually voices his rather simple question.]


Can you grow whatever plant you wish?
