I think so too. I don't think - um, well, of course I have amnesia too, so I'm not sure ... it would be a little strange if I had never learned how to cook, but the "me" that I've remembered so far - I don't think she really knew, so Luci and Doodle and Glory all helped me learn ...

Do you like making things?

I suppose I probably learned growing up—helping around the house. There's a certain satisfaction in it, isn't there? Being able to make something that can help sustain others, or that inspires happiness.

Mm! That part is really nice, isn't it...?

[ but there's a pause, as she looks over the ingredients ]

Does -

[ and another, as she recalls how she got her, her expression darkening just briefly, ]

Um - it's Hellfire's, isn't it... does she like curry?

You know—I'm not entirely sure. She eats a lot of snack foods. It's the sort of thing Silk makes often...

...I wonder if she feels a little bit like an outsider, for not being able to appreciate some things in the same ways. Hellfire, I mean.

Mm ...

[ and glancing to the wild roses, next ]

Those flowers . . .

Of course, there's nothing wrong at all with being different.

...they feel like a sort of longing, though.

... Do you think that we should get rid of them?

It's a sort of wish to understand others better, I think. So I wouldn't.

But it does seem like it's getting a bit untidy. Maybe it needs an outlet.

Then, instead, something like -

Replanting them somewhere else...?

[ reaching for the recipe, holding it up ]

Like this?

...ah, that's not a bad idea.

If they learn how to do it, and she's able to learn how to help, then that might help her feel better too, right?

Well, I'm not sure how we would do that, though ... They won't all fit on this paper, will they...?

Well... maybe if we put the recipe in the brambles, or something like that.

[ or—is there dirt??? where are the flowers coming from anyway

apart from like, metaphor. ]

- Oh! That's a good idea ...

I wonder if I could make it true, too - but these are things that I should save, aren't they?

Well—probably, things will get more difficult. Or at least that's what I'd expect, somehow.

After all, it seems like there's worse things than roses to be contended with. Perhaps let's see if it does anything first.

Mm.

[ just reaching to stick the recipe in some brambles. eat up lil dudes ]

You sort of... prop the recipe sheet amidst the thorns so that it balances there.

Nothing much seems to happen? But you feel that longing again, as your hands brush against the leaves.

Edited (ok but look, if it was the actual curry poured on the roses it would be very funny.) 2021-01-29 04:14 (UTC)

[ it would.

turning her head to look at hope, ]

Um, did anything happen...?

...I don't think so.

Ah, maybe, though—well, her room should be in here, shouldn't it? That might be a place to put it.

Oh -

[ reaching to take the recipe sheet back, sort of. preemptively wincing in preparation for the sense of longing ]

[ already stepping toward the door back to the main room— ]

The bedrooms are this way; you can follow me.

Aradia, as you brush against the roses once more, the feeling is clearer, but it isn't so bad:
Because isn't that something precious? Realizing that having a place you belong is something you could want? Something you could have, if only you reached for it?

When you both head to the bedrooms, even Hope may be a bit surprised by how many there are.

Oh, I think I remember where they are -

[ but she's ducklinging along anyway ]
