[Uhhhh blood gathered by a qliphoth???

"Dad". That makes him feel really good. It's just. Nice. Like he's needed? Or wanted at least.]

Oh...uh...

Anything you make me is my favourite.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

['Dad' comes out so easily. As natural as breathing.]

Then, if I make spaghetti, then we'll both have the same favourite.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

What a good idea. That shouldn't be too difficult for me to learn, either. Then I can make it for you.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

Okay. You promised!

[His smile can be heard in his voice, he's so happy]

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

Of course. How could I break a promise to you?

[As the train comes to their stop, he ducks down low again going through the doors.]

Ready to point me in the right direction?

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

Yup! It should be this way...!

[Continuing down the street, they'll find........ a gardening store. With olive trees?

Is this right??]

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

...Wasn't it a restaurant?

[There's no breadsticks at a garden store?? or are there]

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

Umm.

[Looks down at map to double check. Then at the store. Back at map again.]

This... should be right...

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

...Maybe it's part of the store.

[he heads inside, it's worth a look anyway. like when zellers was a thing and usually had mcdonalds inside. one of those.]

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

[Zellers........ was so long ago

When Vergil enters the store, Nero gives him a little tug on his collar. He wants to explore too!]

I wanna come down...

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

Oh, right, I almost forgot you weren't part of my head.

[he kneels down to let Nero climb off]

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

[Giggling, he gets down and immediately starts to trot around, exploring the "Olive Garden" for the first time. He peers at all the little potted saplings, the herbs and vegetables - carefully touching their leaves to feel how soft they are]

Wow...

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

[And now it's more difficult again... Since he doesn't really know what to do, he just follows Nero around.]

...Maybe you should get a tomato plant?

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

Oh! Then we could make our own tomato sauce! But we'd have to wait a long time...

They have basil, too. And parsley...

[He gives them a sniff, then holds it up for Vergil to smell too.]

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

[Oh-- he's caught off guard, but, of course he smells too]

Are those part of it too?

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

Basil's important. And you can use...

[he starts doing a little count of all the herb pots in a row in front of him.]

Oregano, thime, rosemary, margyram, parsley...... any of these, if ya want.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

Then we should probably get whatever you like to have in tomato sauce, don't you think? If you don't have a good place to put them, there's a garden at mine.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

[awed,]

You have a garden...?

Do you grow roses??

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

There's a lot of roses actually. Do you want to come over to see them sometime?

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

Y-yeah!

I've read all about roses! The red ones mean love, the white ones mean innocence, yellow means friendship...

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

...And blue?

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

They mean, um. Wanting something that isn't real, like... someone who won't love you, even though you love them. Because roses can't really be blue.

They're pretty, though.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

Too bad, I wonder how they make them.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[minidevilbreaker]

I read about that in a book too!

[Maybe Nero was more of a nerd that expected]

You can, umm. You can put blue dye in water. And then when you put a white flower in the water, the water goes up the stem and the colour goes into the petals.

Re: STAMP RALLY

[auguryofinnocence]

You sure know a lot.

[That's...something he should remember. Maybe. For reasons. It doesn't matter.]

Do you like to read?
