(OPEN...ish.) Hana in japanese means Flower, so it just makes sense!

[burntviolet]

Who: Hanako (burntviolet) and ALL THE SIGYN MEMBERS, ALL OF THEM. Especially the ones she has good CR with!
What: Hanako has decided to actually practice her Growth powers, and for that, she needs something to train on. So she's going to use the House's yard area, at a time where a few people walk around- about the night time. Before that, maybe it's best to have a little exploration of the area! Whether you notice her from your rooms or just pass by, if you see her and try to talk to her, she'll be scared at first. But don't worry, that might dissipate soon if you show good intentions (and you don't ask about the scars).
When: Day 59, late evening.
Where: Sigyn's House, somewhere in the yard.
Rating: G, nothing bad should happen here. IT'S ALL ABOUT BONDING~

[After a long time of thinking and brooding, Hanako finally came to a decision. Staying holed in and doing nothing but think about the incidents of a few days ago would do nothing good to her, except feed on her depression. Not even the books that used so much to distract her were working now. Try as she might, she'd never forget of the past events... and she's tired of having her eyes prickle with tears everytime something reminds her of the trauma. Hisao only could do much to relieve her spirits, but he can't magically make her problems go away. That only depends on her, and frankly, she doesn't want anyone to feel sorry for her.

The idea is that she needs to engage in a new activity. Joining the Neighbors club would have been a good step, but it would take a while for her to get used to the idea of meeting that bunch of unsettling people in person. So, in the meantime, she must concentrate on something else entirely. Those semens Laura had sent her days earlier might come in handy.

When she's sure that all the housemates are away, she dons her hoodie outfit, grabs a small bag with the semens and a couple gardening books in it, and quietly sneaks out of her room and out of the hall. Good, the path's clear!

The rain of the past days has left a pleasant aroma and a fresh air overall. It helps her mood a bit, somewhat. For now she'll just walk around, through the spots where the moonlight and the lights from her house still illuminate the patches of grass and trees, while holding the bag protectively in her arms.

There's no way anyone would suddenly bump into her, right? ... Right?]

Comments

[heartfeltfancy]

[Someone had been taking an evening walk in her pajamas. The drama with Sayaka and Homura had been wearing her out, combined with the images of Rose's head bursting into pieces...

And doing things at nighttime usually helped. She starts singing a bit in Japanese.]

"Kawashita yakusoku wasurenai yo, me wo tojitashikameru..."

[But when she spots Hanako from behind, she'll stop.]

Oh, hello. Good evening.

[burntviolet]

[............ kfgskfgdjhg

Hanako startles and lets out a loud squeak- The voice is sort of familiar, but hell, did that scare her! And for now she won't know whoever's greeting her, as she quickly prevents her bag from dropping, not turning around.]

....Uh...

[skitters]

[Fluttershy has been having some trouble sleeping the past couple of nights-- be it the rain or a weird rattling in her bones, she just hasn't felt right. After spending today fretting over her health, she finally decides that she probably isn't ill and just needs some air. As she opens the window and sticks her head out, she spots a figure out near the gardens.]

Who is that...?

[Still in her nightgown, she fetches her light sweater and scurries her way right out of the suite and into the hall. Next down the stairs and right out into the courtyard! Her bare feet are cold against the pavement, but her curiosity as to who this could be is driving her in a fairly uncharacteristic way. She peeks around until she comes across the figure-- a girl.]

Um, are you lost...?

[burntviolet]

[... Oh boy.

Hanako's back is facing her, but the poor girl lets out an "eeep!" sound, dropping her bag on the ground and instantly covering her head and face with her hoodie.]

[histories]

[Nope. Keine had intended to walk by, at least initially, when she had caught sight of the girl wandering about, with that bag huddled closely to herself.

In light of recent events, this is no doubt suspicious... But no need to approach with an aggressive stance! Keine's just going to walk closer, and call out.]

Hello?

[burntviolet]

... Aaaaah!

[She's going to have a heart attack someday, I SWEAR.

There goes her bag, dropped onto the ground while she jumps and quickly covers her face with her hoodie.]

[repetieren]

<sub>[Amy had accidentally gotten loose, despite Homura's best attempts at keeping the cat indoors when she was away. Really, that cat was going to do what she wanted, in the end; it didn't matter that Homura had been about to go to bed or anything.

So Hanako will notice a black cat passing by, before Homura herself shows up, looking around, before she spots Hanako.]</sub>

Ah, um, e-excuse me, but have you seen a cat...?

[burntviolet]

[Hanako blinks rapidly when the cat scurries in front of her, startling slightly. Then she sighs in relief. It would be bad if people were noticing her-]

... eeeeek!

[The famous last words.

At hearing the stranger's voice, Hanako lets out a yelp, startling so much that her bag bounces off her arms- though she manages to catch it quickly.]

[saving_sound]

[Hibiki walks toward the house, trying her best to stifle a series of yawns. Going out at this hour was unusual for her, but she couldn't just go to sleep when images of exploding heads haunted her.

Thankfully it wasn't especially spooky on the grounds of Sigyn's house, so while she was wary, she didn't feel particularly threatened. It was a comforting darkness. The kind that she felt when she lived with her Master in the forest...

She shakes her head, blinking back tears from her most recent yawn. Her thoughts just kept being pulled every which way these days! She really ought to sleep. She's tired, unaccustomed to staying up very late, and surely it must be affecting her thoughts-

Although... who is that girl passing by?]

Ah... g-good evening!

[burntviolet]

[... waaah-

Hanako startles on the spot, turning around on instict. It's a miracle that she didn't scream yet tonight. Holding the bag tighter, she stares in terror at the person, though you can only see her eye within the shadows.

... Wait, that's a little girl. Oh- but she's-]

Hibi...ki...?

[survived]

[Shion had been sitting out on the steps leading into the back of the house, and though he should probably be more startled by Hanako's appearance than he is, he opts to simply smile up to her.]

Good evening.

[burntviolet]

[....

YOU KNOW WHAT SHE'LL JUST TOSS THE BAG IN THE AIR, yelping in a high-pitched voice and instantly covering her face with the hood. The fact that it was a male stranger voice doesn't help. The bag drops uncerimoniously on the grass next to her.]

... aaaaaahhh!

[myjunes]

[ There's a little girl standing in the opening of a doorway towards one of the rooms. She's in her pajamas already, and sleepily rubbing her eyes, as if she was sleeping already and woke up, not quite realising it's still night. She manages to spot Hanako walking by just then, though, and despite how bleary and sleepy she looks she does manage to speak up - even if the sleepiness is audible in her voice as well. At least the lack of coherent thought due to said sleepiness makes it easier to speak up despite being shy. ]

Um.. Where are you going? Isn't it late..? [ She's not even sure what time it is, but it's dark, so surely it's late! ]

[burntviolet]

[... She freezes on her tracks. Unlike the reactions above, the fact it's a tiny familiar voice only makes her startle a little, instantly turning to Nanako when she finds out the source of the questioning.]

... A-ah... [Long pause.] I'm... going to the g-gardens...

[musketworks]

[ Mami is having a bit of trouble sleeping tonight-- though it's not like it's a new experience for her, but it seems tonight is a bit more difficult than usual in that regard. Having decided that staying inside her room isn't helping at all, and since she has the opportunity to in the first place- and this is the advantage of not living in an apartment of a busy, crowded city, as well as having the time to spare-- she decided to get a bit of fresh air. So, walking quietly and carefully in her nightgown, she didn't expect to stumble upon anyone, which is why she almost bumps into Hanako-- though thankfully, she notices her at the last moment and avoids the potential collision, politely stepping out of the way and adding a quiet apology as not to startle. ]

Ah, excuse me. [ She speaks in a whisper, so her voice is probably only vaguely recognizable-- and she naturally doesn't recognize Hanako herself yet. Also, though it is far too dark to see them clearly when they're also covered by her hair, Mami does notice the scars on the side of the girl's face, but her eyes only flick over to them for the briefest second. ]

[burntviolet]

[Hanako, on the other hand, makes a panicked squeak sound and and jumps back, startling so much that her bag slips from her arms and drops on the ground with a sound thud.

Mouth agape, she then takes another step back. The other immediate reaction is to cover the scarred side of her face with her hood, pulling the fabric down forcefully. However, in doing so, Mami might also have a glimpse of the marks on her right hand.]

A... ah... [Her only visable eye studies the person for a moment.

Oh... has she seen this girl before?]

I- I'm sorry...

[corks]

[Unfortunately for you Hanako, Jacob is the sort of person to wander too, though this time he has a reason to do so. He's been practicing his healing ability on various injured animals, and tonight he's going to let his most recent "patient" go- a small grey bird that had its wing broken by a stone thrown out it. Thanks to Jacob, though, its wing is as good as new, and he's decided to go find a nice place to let it fly away.]

[When he spots Hanako, though, he pauses.]

Oh, hello.

[He smiles warmly at her. The bird that is cradled in his hands coos gently, and he tilts his head slightly, curious.]

You're out late.

[burntviolet]

[Oh dear...

Hanako gives a startle, and lets out a loud gasp, barely managing to keep her bag without dropping it. She turns around abruptly, seeing the person that she probably never talked with before. Is he from this House, too?

Trying to lower the hood down not to show her scar, she mutters something at the man.]

Um... g-good... evening...

[rewrites]

[Momoka isn't always out at night, but she is now, trying to figure out what she should do about everything taking place in Asgard. Certainly things had to be addressed, but the problem was figuring out exactly how. As it is, she doesn't notice Hanako until she's nearly on top of the other girl, quickly hopping back out of the way to avoid running into her.]

Oh, hello!

[burntviolet]

[Freeze. Hanako startles and nearly drops the bag to the grass. Is that a little girl...? She has the feeling she's talked with her before.]

A-ah! ... um... hello...

1/2 !!!You got bombarded with comments and I am sorry for adding to the inboxinflux!

[silentmode]

[ Hanako will notice a silhouette in the gardens. Should she choose to approach, she will witness the pale moonlight capturing an expressionless gleam against eyes of gold. The young woman's skin is pale, and her face looks almost corpse-like, devoid of any true emotion or life. She seems empty, almost.

What's that in her hand?

A long hunting dagger. The wind creates a low howl as it blows between the figure and Hanako, eerily beckoning her to move in closer. Oh, can "Ring around the rosie" be heard in the background?... ]

[
Unlike everybody else in this beautiful, lovely House...

Chane has no problem sleeping tonight! After saying goodnight to her Fiancé, she quickly drifted off into a deep slumber, all nice and bundled up in her bed.

But you see, unbeknownst to her, she's developed quite the bad sleepwalking/sleep-gardening/cutting/trimming/stabbing habit. Usually only towards bushes.

She sways a bit, then falls over into a bush. ]

[aeterno_arma]

[Laurent is looking for his puppy again. Hunter has the bad habit of wander around alone and Laurent is worried that he will get in trouble now that none of them has their real powers.

Hunter is, in fact, exploring around the house and he ended I the hall as well. He approaches the girl, waving his tail. Perhaps she will have some food.]

Yip!

[burntviolet]

...!

[Hanako jumps in shock at the sudden noise, and hurriedly looks around in fear. What was that...?]

[starryguyed]

[ of course not it's not like Tsukiko stargazes or anythi--

o h.

Nope, she's on her way back, and it's with a bit of a surprised yip that she just barely manages to avoid colliding with the other girl. ]

Ah-- I'm sorry!

[burntviolet]

[And here's Hanako who lets out a loud yelp and steps back rapidly, tossing her bag in the air out of sheer terror.

...

And then she recognizes her instantly.]

... Ya... Yahisa-san?
