I was looking for some more books about plants. Some of the seeds up at the greenhouse aren't native to Daxing, so I wanted to know what I could use them for.

[she smiles]

What about you?

[brotograph]

Yeah? Is the greenhouse leveling up?

[ looking sheepish ]

Just checking out some manga. Thought maybe I should start a new series.

[countermeasures]

No, I think they were always there. I just wasn't familiar with them.

[she tilts her head to one side.]

Which have you been reading? Skip Beat and In/Spectre were both very good.

[brotograph]

Ah, okay. [ she's going to be leveling up then ]

Was reading this one called Ore monogatari! It's pretty funny and cute.

[countermeasures]

What is it about?

[brotograph]

[ he just...feels embarrassed talking about it. rubbing the back of his head as he looks away ]

It's a romantic comedy about a guy who is big and strong who doesn't have any luck in romance. He winds up saving this shy girl who actually falls for him. He also has a best friend who helps him out.

[countermeasures]

I see...

[i play plenty of characters who would be excited about that. unfortunately, jiuqing ain't one of them. but she doesn't want prompto to be embarrassed either! if he likes it, he likes it.

so she smiles.]

It sounds like a very nice story.

[brotograph]

[ gurl you need to meet better people ]

It's pretty hilarious. There's a scene where... [ oh. maybe he should stop ] What are yours about?

[countermeasures]

[ ?

why did he stop? oh well.]

The first one was about a girl who goes through a lot of different things and becomes a star performer. The second was about a duo that interacts with youkai and solves their problems... but also solves mysteries involving them.

[brotograph]

[ he doesn't want to tell her about plastic wrap practice kiss between bros. he does start to cough. covering his mouth because it feels funny in his throat. ]

Sorry. Something in my throat. Anyways! Those sound pretty interesting. I'll give them a peek.

[countermeasures]

[hm. concern.]

Something in your throat...? You're not coming down with a cold or anything, are you?

[brotograph]

Don't worry about it! Just feels like there's something stuck in it, you know?

[countermeasures]

That's something to worry about. If something is stuck, you could have trouble breathing.

[brotograph]

It's fine. I'll just get a drink of water and- [ he cover his mouth as he coughs again. it definitely sounds like he's coughing something up. ]

[countermeasures]

[uhhhh yeah no this is deeply concerning

she abandons her perusal of the bookshelf to hurry over and put a hand on prompto's back.]

[brotograph]

[ his eyes are closed, but he can feel something hit his hand. he doesn't try to look until after the coughing fit is dying down.

he pulls his hand away from his face to reveal pink hibiscus petals. ]

Wha?! How?

[countermeasures]

[what... the... hell?]

You... haven't been eating flowers, have you?

[brotograph]

No! I haven't eaten anything like this!

[ that he knows of? this is pretty freaky though and his throat feels weird. rubbing his mouth against his arm to try to get the feeling of it coming out gone. ]

Do you think it's a gumball?

[countermeasures]

If it is, it's a very rude one to be using.

[she rubs his back. there there.]

...how are you feeling now that it's out?

[brotograph]

Better? Grossed out but better.

[ bleg ]

I hope it goes away.

[countermeasures]

I hope so, too.

[...she pats his back a little.]

If I can help at all, until it does...
