anyway. he makes his way over to a flowerbox! it's marked with a little sign that says snowdrops. ] Usually come up here to think. Trying to stay off of the roof - weird fucking Friday things happening to me and Perce and Metie up there.
no subject
but she trusts vax, so. here she is.]
...what happened? Are you all okay?
no subject
Yeah. It felt cold - like, a chill. And when we were walking on the rooftop, it felt like little pinpricks, too.
[ vax makes a face. ] Came in here to get away from the cold for a bit, too.
[ his
favorite hangout.... ruined......... how will he brood ]
no subject
[hmm. bad.
jiuqing, who is wearing many layers, pulls off her cloak - it's a cute yellow one with a koi pattern on it, and doesn't fit his aesthetic at all - and offers it to him.]
Would this help?
no subject
... Doc. [ HE FEELS SO FOND and laughs, a little, reaching up to rub the back of his neck. ] 'm alright, I've traveled around in ice before. 's no worry. Keep your cloak.
[ this is funny for reasons she doesn't know, but he will take her hands to gently nudge it back to her. ] Thanks, though.
no subject
[she pouts a little, but it's hard to be too annoyed when she's feeling that fondness - and it's echoed back at him, though there is a slight undercurrent of concern.]
...fine, but if I see you begin to shiver, I am putting it on you whether you like it or not.
no subject
[ this is very playful and teasing, as he makes his way over to look at whatever flowers she's tending to. ]
no subject
there are a few planters where she's working - there's an aloe vera plant growing in one of them, which she's paying attention to at the moment. but the nearby planters have chrysanthemums, calendula flowers, motherwort, and holy basil; further out, there's chamomile, yarrow, lemon balm, echinacea, and peppermint.
she has been busy.]
no subject
...These're all yours? You said you were teaching people plant medicine, right...?
[ there's an instant sort of fondness for that, too, a very nostalgic warmth. he should know what all of these do actually but here i am anyway an idiot. i guess i should also do my due sus duty and ask about the state of all the plants. ]
no subject
It's useful to know. And growing it here, well... if something happens...
[if someone shanks her next week, at least they'll still have the plants!!
she indicates the yarrow.]
...do they have yarrow where you come from, Sir Vax'ildan? You can make a poultice from it, and it helps to stop the bleeding in wounds and encourages quicker healing.
[the plants get tended to regularly because she knows how to do that even though i, britt, know jack all about plants. so i guess they're in decent condition???]
no subject
...Think so, yeah. Kiki taught me some things. [ he points at the one he does recognize - the motherwort. ] That one can stop bleeding, too. Right?
no subject
It reduces inflammation, as well. And if you make it into a tea, it can be good for the heart, and can help to reduce anxiety.
no subject
just kidding. would that be fucked up or what?
vax smiles at her, head tilting a little to the side. ] Didn't know that part.
[ and, pointing to the others... ] Chamomile calms you down, promotes healing, too. What about the chrysanthemum?
no subject
...also, it tastes good! And it looks very pretty before you harvest it.
