Alright.

[after a moment, then:]

Would you like any help with that?

[countermeasures]

If you're interested in learning, I'd be glad to show you how.

[but she doesn't wanna put vin to work if she doesn't!]

[allomantic]

[she nods.]

I would like to be of use.

[hm.

jiuqing pauses for a moment, thinking about that, and then gestures for vin to crouch down next to her. they're working at a planter of chamomile for now.]

It's the flowers we'll want for these. Press your fingers to the stem, here - [she pinches the stem just beneath the flower head] ...and then pluck it off. Once they've dried out, we can use them to make medicinal teas, or to grind down into powdered medicine or mash it into a poultice.

...but the tea is easiest. It's known to ease anxiety and help one sleep.

[following along to her instructions!]

...I didn't know there were plants that could Soothe you.

[countermeasures]

There are plenty of them that can.
