Thirty-Third Spool of Thread-[Written/Action]

[Considering that the weather's fairly decent today, Shiki's decided today is a good day to spend outside. For anybody who's known her long enough, they might recognize the crate that she's sitting on as the one she used to use before the porch around the shop was built. Today, she's facing the shop and just looking it over, sketching out some things on a piece of paper. Soon enough though, she starts writing a message to the community]

I think I know the obvious answer, but where would be the best place to get fresh flowers when I'm ready for them? And, you know, planters and dirt and stuff.

Also, the spring line's just about finished if anybody needs something for the new season.

Good thing I have time to figure out the right kind.

Do you do it on purpose though?

Usually.

What's your reason for pushing everybody away then?

Hmmm... Buncha reasons. It's funny, for one.

And the other reasons? Skip the ones that're generic, let's just get down to the real thing.

Before I answer... Why are you so curious?

Because I don't think anybody else has ever really been this persistent in asking you these questions.

You might be a little surprised.

But, then, so you know... The answer is because I hate liars.

...how many people have lied to you?

Everyone lies, you know. About anything. If it's convenient, or maybe just if they feel like it. There's not a person alive who's not a liar.

But people are most honest when they're angry.

I know everyone lies. Are you lying to me right now though is the question.

Oh, I'm always lying, but that just now wasn't.

So you lie because people lie to you, but when you're not telling a lie people ask if you're lying anyway? Sounds a little complicated to me.

And I make people mad so I can see what they're like underneath all the lies.

What if that doesn't work though?

I'm good at it. It's never failed me yet.

When was the last time you've made me mad?

Oh, you're easy to read anyway.

So...read me. Right now.

You're one of those bleeding heart types, aren't you? You're so interested in my problems, because you think no one else has done this before.

I'm interested because it's interesting. [Read as: I'm interested because I'm incredibly nosy.] Is that such a bad thing?

It means you like getting into other people's business, which says a lot more about you than you realize.

What exactly does it say?

You're not good with friends, are you?

...excuse me?
