It's like any skill. It might take a little time when you're first starting out, but it will get easier with practice.

[time to plant some seeds!]

[petalbursts]

Practice makes perfect.

[ it's going to start off really chill at first, ruby following jiuqing's instructions and watching closely. but as she's pouring seeds into her hand to place down, she loses her grip and drops the lil pouch. now there are several seeds in one lil spot.

she sighs and starts to pick them up one by one. ]

Darn hands...

[countermeasures]

[ ! ]

Miss Rose...?

[she looks to her hands with concern. it didn't look like anything in particular happened that would make her lose her grip...?]

Is something wrong?

[petalbursts]

[ she did not mean to worry jiuqing :c ]

Aaaah, probably just left over nerves from today.

[ flashes her a smile. ]

I'm alright, really, thank you for the concern, Jiuqing.

[countermeasures]

[her brow furrows a little... are her hands shaking still?

she reaches over to take them and gives them a very gentle squeeze before pulling her hands back.]

...it's alright. Anyone would be shaken up by that.

[petalbursts]

[ still a little jittery, but not super noticeable?

she smiles, the squeeze helped. nods. ]

Seeing someone go through something like that, it's never easy to watch. [ frowns ] Especially when all we could do was watch...

[ she hates not being able to help and she hates watching others suffer. ]

[countermeasures]

[she nods]

...you have a very kind heart, Miss Rose.

[petalbursts]

[ jiuqing is so nice... ]

Ahaha...Thank you, I try my best.

[ smiles warmer ]

You do too, Jiuqing. Being a doctor sure isn't easy and it takes a lot of bravery, I think. You're very strong.

[countermeasures]

...I became a doctor because I was afraid.

[she smiles, though.]

But being one has allowed me to protect the people I was afraid to lose, so in a way, I think it's made me stronger.
