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

[so_shik]

[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.

Doesn't count since you weren't very fair on your half, actually.

[action]

[psychebubble]

No fair! That's the most I've told anyone.

[action]

[so_shik]

...seriously?

[action]

[psychebubble]

The only people who know about what I can do are you and the psycho vampire whore who tried to get me during that blizzard.

[action]

[so_shik]

...wait what? What vampire?

[action]

[psychebubble]

She was trying to suck out my 'energy', whatever that meant, so she was a vampire like in one of those bad movies that can't afford blood effects.

She was dressed like a schoolgirl from a porn movie, so she was a whore.

She attacked me out of nowhere, wearing that aforementioned outfit, in the middle of a blizzard, hence the psycho.

[action]

[so_shik]

...that sounds incredibly horrible and tacky all at once. I'm going to guess she didn't succeed.

[action]

[psychebubble]

Just about, yeah. And of course not, my bubble's totally invincible.

[action]

[so_shik]

So it's just...a protection bubble?

[action]

[psychebubble]

That's about the size of it, yeah.

[action]

[so_shik]

That's...different. Have you always been able to do that?

[action]

[psychebubble]

Nope. I figured it out a few years ago.

[action]

[so_shik]

How?

[action]

[psychebubble]

I don't really know. I just sorta did it one day.

[action]

[so_shik]

Just randomly?

[action]

[psychebubble]

Trying to get rid of a stalker.

[action]

[so_shik]

And...it worked?

[action]

[psychebubble]

It knocked him out, I ran away... So, yeah.

[action]

[so_shik]

Good enough for me, I guess.

[action]

[psychebubble]

And before you get accusatory again, that's really the real truth.

[action]

[so_shik]

I never said it wasn't. I believe that.

[action]

[psychebubble]

*Grumbling a little. Why is she being so honest with Shiki, anyway? She doesn't know, and it's really bugging her.*

So, that's enough for you to go through with your side of the deal, right?

[action]

[so_shik]

...yeah, I guess so, fine. Just a bit though.

[action]

[psychebubble]

*HIGURASHIFACE.*

That's good enough!

[action]

[so_shik]

Just let me know when...today's not really a good day, but after that.
