[Euri has ventured out of her room tonight, though she's on a very specific mission. She's immediately heading to the conservatory with a bag slung over one shoulder and some pruning shears. Hoping the place is empty she'll start methodically picking through the flora, occasionally stopping to crouch down and make some cuttings that get shoved into her bag.

Despite spending all that time out past the city she doesn't look too different - no tan, back in some shorts and a shirt she found in her tower room. The biggest change is her hair - instead of a ponytail she's simply weaved some flowers in her hair, which has gotten longer.

As she works Euri has a determined expression on her face. She wants to get in and out as fast as possible, so that she doesn't have to deal with... anyone, really.]

I am.

[Mostly the latter with a combination of antisocialness brought on by being a hermit out in the forest for months. She's deliberately giving him a decently sized berth as she heads up the steps.]

[ He sort of...tries to get up and doesn't actually manage that and sort of falls over a little. Pitifully. ]

Um...well! If you ever do need help, I'd like to offer it.

[ Elia needs a hobby. ]

[occulthymns]

.... [She pauses, if only so she can raise an eyebrow and look unimpressed.]

You don't seem that useful.

[ruminant]

I can be...

[occulthymns]

You sure about that...? [She sounds skeptical.]

[ruminant]

Yes-- yes, I am!

[ Trying this standing thing again; it goes a bit better when he uses his cane for it. ]

[occulthymns]

You're useless, just give it up.

[ruminant]

There are things I can do.

[occulthymns]

Like what?

[ruminant]

I can cook a bit, and I'm good with medical work.

[occulthymns]

Useless.

[Reminds her of Adel.]

[ruminant]

It's not useless at all!

[occulthymns]

Yes it is.

[ruminant]

Ah-- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get angry, but-- how is it useless?

[occulthymns]

Anyone can cook, and medicine is outdated when you have the right magic.

[ruminant]

Oh, you have magic? That's great!
