[ There's a faint, exasperated breath as she sinks down into the dirt next to him--so far he's been careful not to get his uniform too ragged, and in turn, has kept an eye on Aerith and her dress, but he has a feeling they're going to have to send their clothes out for laundering when they get back to the inn. It isn't too much of a problem, except he hasn't exactly gotten them too many other clothes to change into; he immediately decides not to follow that train of thought.

[ Still, he digs his hands into the hole a little deeper, holding back the soil as he gives a soft nod of his chin inward, indicating that Aerith should nestle a bulb down into the spot that he's made for it. ]
Figured I should learn, anyway. You want to do the rest? Am I that bad?
[ He's teasing, a little: but he does wait patiently for her to plant the bulb before he does anything else. He doesn't want to force her to sit there and not do anything; for either of them, he thinks that would be difficult. ]
