video; un: flowergirl
( the video opens with aerith herself, tucked into an old arm chair; it looks like it could be in any of the apartments, but that's unlikely, given the bookshelves behind her, which appear to be more like the ones in the media store. still--she could be in any of the city's various cafes, it's hard to say.
case in point - there's a large book open, spread across her lap, though the words are hard to decipher from the video's resolution, and there's no hint of the title. )
Okay! ( bright and warm, as she leans forward, hands spread over the pages of the book. ) Today's story is a choose-your-own adventure, are you ready?
Ahem, ahem. ( her voice rises and falls in pitch, all full of dramatics. ) To start: you find yourself in a large clearing, full of green grass and well-tilled land. You can't remember how you arrived in this place, but even so...! You feel as though your hands must seek the dirt beneath your feet, as though you must start digging holes, holes for seeds, seeds which... Well.
( her fingers turn the page--and she lifts up a little packet from within the book, not unlike the ones from the cursed tea party, but this one clearly labeled with both pictures and text. some sort of root vegetable. bright orange. )
You find right there, at your fingertips. Now, the question is - out of all these seeds you find, what would you want to grow, and what would you never want to see in a garden, or worse, on your dinner plate?
--Okay, maybe this is less a choose-your-own-adventure and more a terrible marketing tactic. ( dropping the packet of seeds into the book, she pushes both sides of it closed with a snap--and a laugh. ) But I'm wondering what kind of fruits and vegetables are worth growing in my garden. I don't know that I trust the food here, so I want to start growing more things just in case, and...
Everyone has different tastes! So tell me a little bit about the food you like, or even flowers, and maybe I can make a special delivery in...you know, a few months once everything's growing. That's all from Gainsborough Greenery! ( she leans forward with a little wave, before her hand takes over the screen of her phone to cut the video. )

[ Yes, she said that all in one very long breath. ]
And spinach is good anyway, right? And broad beans- they grow nice and quickly too, I think.
Are you a gardener?
video;
We never know when we'll be called on our next adventure, right? So it's good to stock up.
( another warm smile. ) I used to garden back home, but it was more... a constant hobby, rather than an occupation. Do you enjoy it?

[ Oh. Rambling. She's rambling. She finally catches herself in the act and takes a deep breath, rubbing the back of her neck in embarrassment. ]
-I like the plants, but it's the soil I like more. And figuring out how I can make it better, 'til it can grow wild things for itself.

What sorts of things are the right things, to grow? Back home, in your land, I mean.
Spinach? ( with a warm smile. )
