[Day 153] I understood the meaning of love... [OPEN]

Who: Rin and YOU!
Open: Open
When: 153, afternoon
Where: The Gazebo
What: The past few days have been difficult, but Rin is in a surprisingly good mood today. Apparently that's enough to warrant randomly singing??
Format: Starting in action, but I'll folow
Warnings: Rin being Rin is a given by now.

[The past few days had been a whirlwind of emotion. Some good, some bad, but all of it actually fairly exhausting. In it, though, Rin had gotten out some much needed things that had been bottling up for some time, and in a stark contrast to the anger that had nearly destroyed the kitchen, she found herself in a surprisingly good mood this day.

Like. Really good mood.

Good enough to apparently sing. Which she didn't do very often at all. Sometimes she could be caught humming a song while working, but actually singing something?

Well, she did used to be in the church choir growing up, so it wasn't that far fetched of an idea. But it had been years since then, and her voice was a little out of practice.

Still, something about that good mood compelled her to make her way over to the gazebo where the piano was. She couldn't play (Yuki could, but even she had fallen out of practice with that in recent years, too) but she knew enough to strike a note and start from there. She wasn't singing to anyone in particular, and the song that came out of here surprisingly wasn't a
church hymn.]

...

[It didn't quite sound the same without some accompaniment, but she still got rather in to it. Enough that she probably wouldn't notice if some one stopped to listen...]
stoleyourshit: (huh?)

Sound carries pretty well here. And I have pretty good hearing.

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-02-03 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
No.

[She wonders if Aang's lemur constantly riding around on people has anything to do with it. Another thing she's probably never going to see again.

Zuko eases herself into a chair at one of the tables. It's a far cry from eating at the royal palace, but still more comfortable than a lot of her other dining experiences. Rin certainly seems at ease in it.]
daughterofursa: (I know)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-02-03 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
It's Zuko-

[She nearly adds her title, but stops herself. She'd been so proud before coming here to have reclaimed it, and now it's completely meaningless.]

Just Zuko.
daughterofursa: (lost)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-02-03 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Rin then.

[It's a pretty normal-sounding name anyhow.

Wait. Manners.]


Nice to meet you.
stoleyourshit: (Default)

[personal profile] stoleyourshit 2014-02-04 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
What I can't get used to is how quiet it is here.
stoleyourshit: (huh?)

[personal profile] stoleyourshit 2014-02-04 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I usually end up living in big cities. Being somewhere without cars is downright freaky.

[... She eyes Rin's tail carefully, but doesn't say anything yet. Hmm...]
daughterofursa: (unimpressed)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-02-04 01:35 pm (UTC)(link)
I've learned not to be picky.

[They may not even know the same kinds of foods for her to be able to tell Rin what she doesn't like. She certainly hasn't recognized any of the plants or animals around here. She actually saw some sort of pastry-bearing tree this morning.]
daughterofursa: (irritated)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-02-04 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It's not so hard to make either.

[Never mind that mediocre stew is about the pinnacle of Zuko's cooking ability.]
daughterofursa: (unimpressed)

[personal profile] daughterofursa 2014-02-05 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Hey, she's had plenty of other people to cook for her over the course of her life. Some of them were professionals!

...although that stew is starting to smell pretty good.]


Is it ready yet?
rebellionsheart: (Leave it to Jazz)

[personal profile] rebellionsheart 2014-02-05 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Are you now? Maybe I should come visit you when you're in the kitchen then. I wouldn't mind a few extra bites to eat throughout the day."

[Jazz says with a laugh.]
blackblooded: (why does this exist)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2014-02-05 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. That makes sense. Poetry's hard to work with.
stoleyourshit: (hm...)

[personal profile] stoleyourshit 2014-02-05 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
I keep moving. People don't really take non-humans very well.

[... Yeah okay she has to ask.]

... What are you, by the way?

[ Except the inevitable calling out of pokeymans. Hilda moves with Zebstrika out a little bit from the Gazebo and starts to let her pokemon out of their balls: Emboar came out first, then Unfezant, Lilil, and Frillish.

Frillish let out a happy squeak and rushed over to nuzzle Rin. He was obviously the youngest of the group and very excitable and friendly. Lilil tried to rush after him and keep him from just sticking his face into anyone else's face, but ended up not successful. She facepalmed.

Hilda laughed a bit, sheepishly. ]


Ah ... forgive Frillish, he's really friendly.

[ Emboar recognized Rin, and grinned, huffing mightily and holding a fist out toward her. ]

You already know Emboar and Zebstrika ... this is Unfezant, and this is Lilil. And again, Frillish is the one who tried to attach himself to your face just now. Everyone, this is Rin. Say hello to her!

[ Everyone let out a greeting of their own. Some loud, like Emboar, Frillish, and Lilil ... and some slightly more subdued, like Zebstrika and Unfezant. ]
