It's so nice to not have to worry about being turned into a stool!

[Is she purposefully goading someone? Maaaybe.]

I wonder if he's turning someone else into a stool or something worse! [GASP.] I bet he is. What a criminal!

[Tiny hummingbird wings flutter in indignation on her back.]

Someone should lock up the Crow before he does more damage. Lock him up and throw away the key~

[And the goading continues.]

Comments

[dragonrising]

[He gives her a gentle smile.] Thank you. I will make sure to be there. I promise.

[watergrape]

I'll make sure to have a pond. [For the lotuses and her friend.]

[dragonrising]

For your lotuses? [How could it possibly be for him after all? He is sure it would be for the flowers.]

[watergrape]

And you! [Jin Mi looks amused.] So you can dip your feet while you drink tea.

[dragonrising]

Me? My feet? [He hasn't been wearing boots lately due to the changes of his feet so he'd be able to easily touch the water directly. It's very tempting...] You don't have to do that, Mi'er.

[watergrape]

What if I want to? [She already has plans for this pond. It won't be as beautiful as his heavenly one, but close!] Lotuses and fish can keep you company!

[dragonrising]

Where are you going to have this pond? [Because he's not sure if she's thought about that part yet.]

[watergrape]

Oh! [She gets up and grabs a map, laying it in front of him. Pointing out a spot that is circled in red, she grins.] This is my plot! I rented it and I'm going to put the pond...here.

[On the east side of the plot where the fishies can see the sun rise~]

[dragonrising]

[He leans over to look at it, genuinely curious.]

Rented? [Was she given property?]

[watergrape]

I work in a greenhouse. [Jin Mi is so proud of herself.] I buy food and rent this plot. The owners just want a pretty garden. I can do that.

[dragonrising]

I see. So you are renting this to turn it into a garden for them?

[watergrape]

Yes! I told them about the Water Mirror.

[dragonrising]

So you'd like to recreate something like that for them. That's a big endeavor.

[watergrape]

On a much smaller scale. I'm thinking a small area with trees and flowers with a nice open space in the middle for a table. The pond could be off to one side.

[dragonrising]

Maybe you could see if there is anyone out there who could help you since you are still practicing.

[watergrape]

I wouldn't mind help. I'll need to pick the right fish. I need koi that like mornings.

[dragonrising]

When you are ready you should ask around. There are many here with many talents.

[watergrape]

I'll keep the cats away, at least. They wouldn't mind fishing for big koi.

[dragonrising]

If the pond is big enough, you won't have to worry about cats. The fish will be too big for them.

[watergrape]

The cats will be intimidated? I would like to see that!

[dragonrising]

Koi can become much larger than cats when given the room to grow. Very intimidating.

[watergrape]

Can you pet them? I wonder if they like belly rubs?

[dragonrising]

If you gain their trust then I don't see why not. Even shy fish can desire affection.

[watergrape]

[She is gleeful over this information!] I'll feed them and make sure their water is perfect.

[dragonrising]

[Her heart is truly so big and full of love. She really was always suited to his brother and he realizes that now.] That will surely gain their trust.
