...anything?

[She may never even think the word 'Warmblood' again. This is way too distracting.]

With or without seeds?

[righthemisphere]

Anything I can think of I’ve been able to sprout from a handful of dirt.

They’re growing now so we’ll see if they are what they’re supposed to be, but so far so good.

[demonicbeauty]

That's incredible!

[She's practically giddy. And they're never going back to talking about blood types.]

Oh, Raleigh! I can think of so many things we need!

[righthemisphere]

[He is absolutely delighted. This has come at exactly the right time.]

Me too. I've started a few things but if you've got as list send it on over and I'll do what I can. Or I could come over and we could plant in around your trees?

Man, I wish I had a greenhouse.

[demonicbeauty]

Talk to Luke Skywalker.

He mentioned he might be able to build one. Perhaps we could share it?

[righthemisphere]

Yeah, that would be good. Where do you wanna build-

-sorry, talk to who?

[demonicbeauty]

Luke Skywalker?

[Admittedly, the Skywalkers have a kind of bad reputation in town. At least, from her perspective. But Luke is really quite sweet.]

Sky-walk-er.

[righthemisphere]

[Raleigh laughs with disbelief, short and slightly high.]

I.. ppbfh. I didn't realize he was here.

[demonicbeauty]

...

[She tries to piece it together, but the things she knows about Luke's world and Raleigh's are inconsistent.

Which basically leaves her with a question:]

What?

[righthemisphere]

[He is not helpful, either.]

What.

[demonicbeauty]

Do you...know him?

[righthemisphere]

Oh- no.. no, not personally. He's kind of a legend where I come from, though. Big fan of his work with the rebels.

Don't worry about it.

So you guys were talking about a greenhouse? Where do you wanna build it?

[demonicbeauty]

[Uh huh...]

We hadn't gotten that far. It seems like the fields or the Willful Machine would be best.

[righthemisphere]

Willful Machine is built up unless you mean your place, which could work if you've got the space. I've got protected land if you don't mind the lantern journey to Feed.

[demonicbeauty]

Not at all.

The more space, the better, I would think.

[righthemisphere]

Well, great. I was planning on building one anyway so I can't see there being an issue. I'll run it by Chuck but I'd love to get this off the ground as soon as possible.

[A small chuckle. Slightly guilty.]

I've got trays and trays of seedlings ready to plant out. Do you think you could spare a few buckets of dirt from your garden? Really cover our bases.

[demonicbeauty]

Of course.

[A pause. Nope, she can't let it go.]

I'm sorry. Luke is a legend?

[righthemisphere]

[Damnit]

Uh well, kinda.

[He just. God he doesn't want to get himself into any kind of trouble, here.]

Well, I've just heard about.. his life. I guess. Pretty neat. All the stars.. and. Wars.

[demonicbeauty]

[She presses her lips together.]

"Legends" are usually dead...

[righthemisphere]

Huh? Oh- no, not in this case. Happily Ever After, if memory serves.

[demonicbeauty]

Happily ever after?

[She's even more confused.]

I'm not sure how that doesn't imply...long dead. Is Luke dead in your time?

[Now she sounds genuinely anxious.]

[righthemisphere]

No, no, it just means everything worked out in the end and it's all good. Don't think about it too hard, okay? It's all good.

[demonicbeauty]

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

[She shakes her head, exhaling through her nose.]

It's only that he's a good friend. I don't like the idea of something bad happening to him, you know?

[righthemisphere]

Totally, I get it. I didn't mean to scare you. It's all good.

[demonicbeauty]

Sorry for overreacting. I don't know what's wrong with me lately!

[Yes, she does. She just doesn't want to admit it.]
