OPEN ● the night breeze carries something sweet

WHO: Aerith and friends and YOU!
WHERE: Pretty much everywhere but mostly Nonah
WHEN: All through August!
WHAT: A big catch-all for Aerith and co.
WARNINGS: None yet; will update if this changes


1. All Porter cities!

[If anyone knew Aerith from her own home world, this would be a familiar sight. Aerith is standing around on a street corner with a basket on her arm, filled to the brim with flowers. It's August, so this month's selection includes gerbera daisies, irises, and her usual lilies and roses. She's stopping locals, mostly, who are more than happy to pay a bit extra to buy a flower from an actual import, and such a pretty one, at that. She'd made a point to dress extra cute today just for this.

Aerith will stop you on the street, too, and ask in her sweetest voice:]


Excuse me, would you like to buy a flower?

[Be careful, though. Despite all her frippery, she'll be charging people individually by how nice they are to her... and maybe using a bit of her own power of soul reading to be sure.]

2. Nonah

[A lousy hole-in-the-wall takeout restaurant in one of Nonah's less thriving neighborhoods isn't the place someone would expect to see Aerith. And yet, here she is. It's one of her usual hangouts, in fact. The restaurant is your typical greasy spoon, selling your usual selection of good ol' American traditional foods like overstuffed hamburgers, greasy fries, hot dogs, and sad attempts at salads. She loves it.

She takes her order of a burger, fries, and lemonade in its brown paper bag across the street to an even grittier looking area: a half-empty lot filled with gravel and dirt that may have once long ago been an attempt at starting a park. Now, instead, it's essentially a trash dump.

But something weird is going on here. Aerith sits down on a small concrete ledge, and somehow, it looks like she belongs there... It might have something to do with the grass and wildflowers that have bloomed only around where she's sitting. Weird, huh?]


3. Anything else?

[If none of these are hitting you, come up with something else and I'll roll with it. Aerith spends a lot of time in her garden outside Nonah 06 and sometimes she just goes out wandering porter cities alone. Or hit me up on plurk at [plurk.com profile] MahouShoujo or PM me if you want a specific starter!]

[It's hard enough for Kel to imagine this, and not for the first time she wishes she were a mage. But 'energy' and 'life'...the feel of Peachblossom under her as they charged in a tournament, or her hair raising as Numair worked a large spell...Well, those just sound exhausting to deal with all the time.

And were she to admit it, she hadn't FELT like Aerith had done anything TO her...no more than perhaps a dog with a very good sense of smell could tell, perhaps.]


But...it's not something you do TO people, just a...a sense you have all the time?

I suppose that's fair enough.

...But healers running themselves ragged is never a good plan, you know.
protects_the_small: (all those traditions you like)

[personal profile] protects_the_small 2016-08-13 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
No, there's never enough of you...

[Kel's eyes unfocus for half a second, looking past Aerith to something and somewhere else...then she shakes herself and comes back]

Thank you. For telling me.

I appreciate that. But...you shouldn't feel like you're in danger on my account.

It does sound exhausting. And...well, if my friends are any indication, learning control usually means more power when you need it most anyway.
