She laughed softly because he was being silly. "Okay, sure."

((I imagine we'd just go to the game room after this, right? Since there's no reason for us to RP them actually going to her room))

((Yuppers))

((Who posts first?))

((Umm do you want to?))

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

((Sure, just give me a second))

((Haaley))

Yumiko had grown bored of hanging around in her room, so instead she took her current work to the common room; it was a planter full of glowing flowers. It was something she had been working on for the past few weeks to try and nullify her boredom. Once the flowers were finished, she'd have a new set for her room.

Robbie hopped into the common room with a smoothie from the food court. She spotted Yumiko at one of the tables. "Heya, Yumi. Whatcha doing?"

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

Yumiko looked up and waved her friend over. "Just working on some flowers. I've been growing these for a while, and once they're done, they'll make a good addition to the huge multitude of other flowers I have in my room,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"I hope they'll stay on your half and not go over to mine," She teased. "Just kidding. Ribbet. They're really pretty. They almost look like they're glowing."

((I believe Yumiko and Robbie are roommates, I can't remember))

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

((Yup they are))

"Thanks, glowing flowers are one of my specialties," She smiled. "It just feels nice to be doing something related to my abilities, I haven't done so in so long,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"This is going to sounds really terrible of me but... what are your abilities again?" Robbie asked her, before putting the straw back in her mouth.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

She giggled. "It's alright. Nature-based stuff. I can make plants grow and move around, and I'm also quite skilled at alchemy,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Ooh," Robbie said, swallowing her drink. "You're good at it. You could sell them."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Maybe," Yumiko shrugged. "I mean, I'm good, there's already a flower shop in town though. But maybe I could sell to them! Or get a part-time job there!"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Or just offer them to students. You'd make a killing!" Robbie told her.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

She laughed. "Maybe! That nice lady in the office seems like she could use a nice cheery flower,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Which one?" Robbie asked, remembering that there was the one with white hair and another one in the room beside it that didn't seem to smile much either.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"The quiet one with white hair who knows sign language," Yumiko remembered.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"She does seem like she could use a pick me up," Robbie agreed.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

“And yes I know she’s not actually a student, but I feel she should still count. Why exempt staff members?” She continued.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Fine then," Robbie said, waving her smoothie around. "You can sell them to everyone. Who cares if there's a flower shop thing. Yours aren't regular plants."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

Yumiko giggled again. “I know, so maybe I really will consider that idea. Everyone should understand the greatness of plants!”

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

Robbie nodded, wiping the bit of smoothie that splashed onto her arm off with her finger and putting it in her mouth. "MMM. I'm so glad the food trolls will make anything."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"What is that? A smoothie?" She asked curiously.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Berry Beetle," Robbie said with a nod. "It's really good."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Is it made from actual beetles?" She frowned a bit. "Does it taste like actual beetles?!"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Yes... That's kind of the point. You'd think that you would have stopped freaking out by now. I swear, you and Kat can not get over the bug thing," Robbie said, shaking her head. Her hair had a darker tone today, with it's pearl violet effect.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"But beetles are a part of nature! Besides, who'd want to eat one anyway? They're all gross and crunchy, then once you crunch them they're gooey and squishy," She continued. "Like a fruit snack gone wrong,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"I've never thought of them like a fruit snack. They're more nutty," Robbie pointed out. "Me is who. I know I've explained the frog thing to you Ribbet."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"I know, but still," Yumiko pouted. "They sound gross,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Try it," Robbie said, shoving him cup in Yumi's direction.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Uh, okay," She slowly took the cup and took too big of a sip from it.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"See, it's berry goodness with a creamy texture," Robbie pointed out with a big smile.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

Yumiko smiled back. "Wow, it's actually pretty good! But...it's still beetles,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Protein," Robbie pointed out. "People could live off bugs, in place of meat I think."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Yeah, but still," Yumiko then returned to her flowers.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

Robbie watched for a while, walking around the table to watch from all angles. Eventually she plopped down on a bean bag.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

Yumiko stepped back a bit after a while. “There, I think I’ve earned a break!”

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"It looks nice," Robbie told her. "Better than any I could do."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Thanks," She stood up and wiped her hands off on her lab coat. "I haven't done this in a while so I'm surprised it turned out as well as it did,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Why are you dressed like a doctor?" Robbie asked her, getting Medusa vibes. She shivered as a chill ran up her spine at the memory.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Just my lab coat. I wear it when I work with plants so my clothes won't get dirty," She pulled it off slightly to reveal a soft pink camisole and jean shorts.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Is it more effective than an apron? Ribbet." Robbie asked.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"Yes, since it can cover your arms as well," She nodded.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"I guess that makes sense. What about a smock?" Robbie asked. "Like people use in art."

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

"I guess I never really thought about it that much," She shrugged. "Mom always used to wear a lab coat when she worked so I guess it rubbed off on me,"

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"It just seems strange to me," for other reasons, "but it isn't a problem. I just wondered, is all."

Robbie took the last sip of her smoothie, loudly getting every bit.

[Elizabeth ♛Smart Girls Love Trashy Books♛ , Modess of Pinkness]

“Well that’s why,” She shrugged.

As they talked Haruka had walked into the room, sitting further away from them. Even though he had his homework out, he was currently ignoring it in favour of a pudding cup he was eating.

[Haaley, ᙏoᑯ oƒ ᙏᥲ⳽tᥱɾɩᥒɠ ᙃᥙᥒɠᥱoᥒ⳽]

"Did you have anything else to do today?" Robbie asked, looking around. Her gaze settled on a boy that she hadn't noticed when she came in.
