[It's a start.]

The pollen is startin' to clear up... still wouldn't touch any flowers for a while, though.

[spiria]

I won't be trusting any flowers, not anymore.

[ she might be pouting a little bit behind him. ]

Really, you'd think I'd have learned my lesson with flowers back in Celirand ...

[keepsthefire]

That bad?

[Rin has known some pretty bad plants in his time, too.

Hell, still does.]

[spiria]

Ahh ... well. Man-eating plant. Giant one. Nearly ate me.

[ yeah, that bad. ]

[keepsthefire]

[Oh.

Well then.

All the more reason to keep her out of the greenhouse.]

Yikes.

Guess we both got bad luck with plants then. A plant demon paralyzed my friend's legs and then possessed her to try and kill me and Yukio.

[spiria]

Hey, that's another thing we have in common, I guess? Bad luck with plants?

[ though her plant troubles are done and over with ... for now at least. she doesn't know if this plant demon he's talking about is still around or not. ]

[keepsthefire]

Heh. Yeah, I guess so.

[That one isn't, no. Twoey, on the other hand...

But again he's keeping that under wraps.]

Are you feelin' okay after that? I know I always come outta there feelin' a little sick.

[spiria]

[ there was a reason why she was leaning so much on him. though she'll try to hide it so she doesn't add to his worries. ]

M'fine. I'm okay.

[ feeling a bit sick, like Rin said he did, but it's nothing she can't handle. ]

[keepsthefire]

Y'sure? I think we come back kinda dehydrated or somethin'... you should drink some water when we get back. And maybe eat somethin' a little later.

[Yeah Kohaku he's not buying that.]

[spiria]

I'm fine, don't worry so much about me. I'll drink some water at home.

[ now she's ordering you around. is she wearing the pants in the relationship yet? ]

[keepsthefire]

[scuse you]

You'd better.

[spiria]

You're going to make sure I do anyway, right?

[ she laughs a little and carefully pulls a bit closer to him. ]

I know you will.

[keepsthefire]

Duh.

[He smirks at her over his shoulder. They're almost home because of the bike anyway so of course he's going to remember to do that.]

[spiria]

[ she smirks right back at him. ]

Yeah, I thought so.

[ she points ahead. ]

You should probably pay attention to the road for now, though.

[keepsthefire]

Yeah yeah I got it handled. Gimmie a break, I know how to ride a bike!

[Oops that was a bump]

[spiria]

[ and that was a squeak. if you wanted her holding onto you tighter, you have succeeded in that. ]

P-Pay attention to the road!

[keepsthefire]

[Hee girl snuggles.

I mean--]

Sorry! It was just a little bump!

[spiria]

[ admit it, you just wanted the snuggles. ]

It's just ... there's two of us on the bike, and that's not all that normal for it, is it? We're more prone to tip over or crash at small things, aren't we?

[keepsthefire]

[totally]

Well yeah, but you trust me, right? I ain't gonna let us fall.

[spiria]

Of course I trust you! It's the bike I don't trust as much!

[ you could have just asked for snuggles, man. ]

[keepsthefire]

[Tsun.]

I've got control of it!

[spiria]

[ pouting. ]

Okay, okay.

[keepsthefire]

Stop poutin'. We're almost home anyway.

[spiria]

I'll pout if I want to!

[ don't tell me what to do, boyfriend! ]

[keepsthefire]

[bosses around forever]

Well do it less, we're home!
