[It's a while before they hear from the gardening fae. The whole, rapidly going feral thing, the drunken fumble before that...Many things where happening in the life of Mikasa Ackerman. And while she was able to maintain her garden and some of the plants where already starting to flower..
So there's a small message sent. One asking for clearer directions than 'by the alley where the trash is' because that could have taken awhile. It still takes awhile. There was a lot more streets than she was used to, but eventually the door is knocked on.]
[Enkidu messaged her back that they have been cleaning the garbage up a while ago. The second mold start to become an issue it has to go. So Enkidu sends her a more detailed description of the route she needs to take. Important is to pay attention to a dog with brown spots since said dog will probably be lying in front of their apartment, waiting to be fed.
When the knock comes, Enkidu comes down the stairs to open it.]
Hello.
[They extend an arm and offer her their hand.]
We have exchanged text messages a while ago, not? It is good to meet you. I am Enkidu.
[And with that amazing description, she does turn up. It was a good job she'd not given a time. Because she probably would have been late, not because she'd paused to pet the dog or anything...
But she's there, and tilting her head to look at plant friend. Before her calloused and scarred hand reaches out to shake the offered hand, her grip probably a bit tighter than necessary. ]
That's right. About Root? [She was pretty sure this was the person who'd called their plant that, it was better than Tendou's name for his mandrake though, and Mikasa gave a small nod.] Mikasa Ackerman. [Normally she didn't really give her full name, but it wasn't infamous here. And her username was Mikasa Ackerman after all.]
[Worry not, Enkidu would totally get the need to pet a dog. They mostly get stuck petting half of the strays at the harbor as well.]
Yes. About Root and plants. [They hum.] I haven't brought the device with me but I have the messages I exchanged with you stored on that. [Finally they take a step back to let her in and finally they gesture at the stairs.]
The door to the part where we live is open. Just sit down on one of the pillows or on the couch. If you want to see Root, he's at the window. He likes to bask in sunlight.
[The hallway gets a slow glance around, then the fae was going in. Antenna taking in the smells as she wandered up the stairs and to the mentioned room, still unused to these houses. It really was like Kiyomi's manor. The houses she's spent her life in were a lot more simple.
But they get a head tilt.] The plants? Is Root the only one you've named then?
[She didn't get naming the plant to begin with. But just naming one and leaving the others seemed a bit off.]
Yes, Root is more loud than the others. Also, he is given to me by someone close to me. To ignore its life would mean I'd ignore that person's companionship.
[The living room is small. A mere couch, a table, lots of pillows scattered over the floor and quite some curtains. It smells like spices and plants.]
I will bring you some water. [Enkidu gestures at the pots in the window.] The large one belongs to Root.
Like midway through the month? What is time
