[Tieria could be found that day in the Arboretum that day, idly examining some of the stranger looking plants as if out of curiosity. It was clear that something else was on his mind.

Feel free to poke at him and bother him, people. Though, be prepared for wild snarks.]

I need a second opinion on a problem.

[Laura's in the Arboretum too, watering a section of the flowers. At the same time, though, she seems to be inspecting them, looking some of them over thoughtfully, but not systematically. The inspection includes flowers outside of the ones she's otherwise tending to.

She gives Tieria a curious look, but for now she's leaving him to himself. The Arboretum is a quiet place, after all, and if he's not here for work, he might prefer silence.]

[deniedaccess]

[He met that curious gaze with one of his own.]

What are you doing?

[He could have asked after her reasons for being there or if there was something that she wanted to say with the same tone and body language. He was distracted.]

[emorangerpink]

Watering the flowers.

[It's not sarcasm. She's learned to take very little for granted with new people on the Chalice.]

And I'm trying to decide if we can spare any...

[deniedaccess]

Spare any...what?

[He's not used to small talk. Forgive him.]

[emorangerpink]

Flowers!

I think it'd be nice to use ones we grow here, but then if everyone does that it'll ruin the garden... But I work here, so maybe it's okay for me...

I can't decide.

Yo. How are ya fellow camper?

[deniedaccess]

[There was a voice he knew.]

...It's you. [He glanced over for a moment and nodded before returning his attention elsewhere.]

No major damage on my side, just low on energy reserves.

Yourself?

[That arm, man. :|]

[i_like_shades]

I need a hand.

[Horrible sense of humor intended.]

That aside this is a decent change of scenery. I love trees.

[Only problem with that is that the reason for his love is to cut them down and use them to print more money.]

[deniedaccess]

[Duly noted.]

It is quiet.

[Someone's sitting under a tree with a book.]

Oh. Hey. You look like something bothers you. I can't say I blame you, after what happened recently.

[deniedaccess]

[Another familiar face and voice. Tieria nodded in lieu of greeting.]

I just followed my orders. But that woman...

[Although it was simply a mission to him, he couldn't abide by what he saw out there.]

[saikyocivrobo]

I have a hard time believing she's really Vlaska's owner. From what I heard, I expected someone... kinder. Someone who wouldn't want to destroy his sapience just because it's not needed anymore.

But still, Ockham's Razor. If I don't have any reasons to suspect otherwise, it seems it's really her. Poor cat.

[deniedaccess]

I don't know the cat personally, but I can't agree with her methods or motives in this. That includes what's happening.

[Because sapience was sapience. Anything that was self-aware and able to think deserved a chance.]

[sunshine_maiden]

[Part of Sora's not slacking: getting back to the gardens she hasn't been able to tend in a few weeks. She seems unsteady on her feet and her movements are little jerky yet, but on the whole she's looking much better than before.]

Tieria? Is everything okay? You seem a little... [Her first instinct is "distant", but that's not unlike normal. She settles for:] ...off.

[deniedaccess]

Sora Myoudouin. [It may as well have been 'hello.']

I'm just thinking.

[sunshine_maiden]

Thinking, huh? Did something happen? [She's watering flowers as she talks.]

[deniedaccess]

Nothing in particular.

[It was simply the observation of questionable (and unsanctionable) ethics and wondering if he should be worried about a certain Cheerleader and how he hasn't heard from her.

Something absurd must have been in the works.]

[rods_and_cones]

[[Looks like you need someone, huh?]]

I've got an ear. What's the problem?

2

[deniedaccess]

The Cheerleader.

[He's trusting your discretion on this, bro.]

What do you know?

Re: 2

[rods_and_cones]

She's very lively, I can discern that from a glance.

What were you hoping to learn?

2

[deniedaccess]

Any warnings you may have. She's part of the problem.

[orewagundamda]

Is something wrong, Tieria?

2 ....is it bad that I'm preemptively laughing?

[deniedaccess]

It's nothing major, but it is irritating.

What can you tell me about the Cheerleader?

For shame. You need to at least wait until he associates the title with Lilly's name

[orewagundamda]

The Cheerleader?

i can't wait :D

[deniedaccess]

Blonde. Ponytail. Named Lilly.
