[03] a farmer's life?
Who: Mizuki and anyone [open]
Where: Astralin's farm in the meadowlands, and the new botanical gardens.
What: Just a day in her life, apparently.
Warnings: ~*~ vandalism ~*~ possibly, will add as anything comes up.
👁️ i. Astralin's Farm
[ If you asked her six months ago where she thought she'd be now, a farm would've never been it. Mizuki is a modern girl, accustomed to certain luxuries, wont to complain like a brat when she doesn't have them, but who cares about the small shit when your world's turned upside down? Day by day, she finds herself learning a little more about how they lived Back Then. Maybe she doesn't hate it all the time.
The heavy lifting continues. By now, Astralin's farm is complete, and the girl spends a lot of her time here as of late. ]

👁️ ii. A Respite
[ During the hottest part of the day, Mizuki finds herself stepping away from the farm and back into town to find something to eat. As she thinks back on their collective trip to Rumpitur, she feels a sudden chill that travels down the back of her spine, despite the agreeable weather. An echo of the nightmares that occasionally plague her, mostly about those who went missing.
Just as she wonders whether she should spend another night at Astralin's farm, she passes through the new botanical garden, surrounded by the Chosen's statues. They've been in construction for a while, but this is the first time she's seen them all complete. ]
Heh, they work fast.
[ ...She passes by her own [statue], talking to no one in particular. ]
Even got my pipe right.
[ Then she'll walk over to the statue and mimic its pose. Silly. ]
👁️ iii. Wildcard & Notes
[ If you want to do something else, feel free to hit me with your own prompt or plot with me on plurk @ ![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)
yammdere, PM, or @ me on the game discord!
One other thing I wanted to note that I couldn't seem to fit anywhere is that Mizuki's left eye is missing. She wore a "fake" eye towards the beginning of the game, but no longer does (it's a long story). If you'd like your character to take notice, feel free; if not, just be OOCly aware, since I probably won't go out of my way to mention it unless it's particularly relevant.
....Thanks! ]

👁️ i. Astralin's Farm

a.) [ She can be seen feeding the animals. If she's not hauling water over to their pens, then she's making rounds, making sure everyone everyone's gotten their fill to eat. In particular, she seems to favor two little piglets in the playpen. Once they've had their fill with the rest of them, she can be seen bathing them, washing off the mud they've accumulated on their coats from playtime. ]
Sure, a dog or a cat, maybe, but I never thought it'd be pigs.
[ Just talking to them. ]
Guess I should give you better names than Thing 1 and Thing 2.
b.) Baaa, baaa. [ Mizuki mimics the sheep she has in front of her, her tone mocking yet somehow affectionate. She's never done this before, but she has some shears in one hand, and the other grips onto its wool. ] Come on, hold still. I'm not trying to hurt you here.
[ Maybe she's hoping to use it at some tailor shops to finally get some new clothes made, as she seems to be collecting the wool in a large basket. The sheep seems calm after a while. ]
See? It's not so bad.
c.) [ When she's not helping Astralin tend to the animals, maybe she's stepped away to tend to her bike. Near the shed they built for it, she can be seen with a large bucket of water at her feet and a rag, wiping the face where she has her Adorabbit sticker, and the center console where Aiba belongs.
Well, the rag is kinda torn up, definitely not perfect, but it gets the job done. ]

no subject
I meant your laser beam eyes or whatever. Don't you wanna show off, too?
no subject
[Scott cuts in, although, he soon closes his mouth and looks a little uncertain with this turn of events, shuffling almost uncomfortably on the balls of his feet. He hasn't used his 'eyes' since coming here and he thought about keeping it that way, until something really bad happens or he's training to control them. Somehow.]
...Not really? There's not much to see-- [That's not entirely true.] I mean, unless you want me to destroy something, they're just these... red beams.
no subject
[ He seems hesitant! And probably for good reason. Though Mizuki's curiosity continues to itch, and she starts to wonder what he would actually be OK with destroying.
There's a thought that crosses her mind just then. ]
What about one of those statues? [ She's thinking of a specific one. Whether that's obvious or not to Scott, well... who can say. ]
no subject
[Scott raises a finger to his chin, not quite putting together that Mizuki wants him to destroy a specific one. Still, it's clear that he hasn't completely blown her idea off, because if she really wants to see his powers, he doesn't want to disappoint her.]
Yeah, I can definitely destroy that. [.....] Wouldn't the locals be mad though?
[Although, the somewhat angry and bitter part of Scott motions to the fact that he's already here for 'destruction of property,' why not just add to it.]
no subject
[ ......Yeah. Mizuki probably doesn't need to be making enemies here on purpose. Or... more specifically, she probably shouldn't be pushing this definitely-20-year-old boy to be making enemies for no reason. Her expression turns serious, and her fist clenches at the thought of That Guy being honored for anything. ]
I guess it doesn't have to be a statue. [ Muttering: ] Even if he doesn't deserve one.
no subject
Scott straightens himself slightly and places his hands on his hips, trying to act cocky right now.]
Let's go, destroy one. I'm in a statue destroying mood today.
no subject
She attempts a smirk. ]
Really. Well, that didn't take much. [ To convince him. Not a wet blanket, but a simp, then. ]
no subject
[He can imagine Professor Xavier or even Professor McCoy frowning at him for pulling a stunt like this, but they aren't here either. That's a Future Scott problem if they ever decide to show up and he's not counting on it. He's been the only mutant here (that he knows of) and doesn't expect that to really change.]
no subject
[ Even if she did find her own cute, to start. She decides not to bring that up however, and instead continues to lead, looking from one side to the other once they reach the garden. Not her... Not her... Definitely not him.
Finally, after a statue she recognizes as her roommate, she stops in front of him. At a glance, there's really nothing suspicious about him, and the locals utterly failed to capture just how unhinged he is. ]
no subject
So. How much you hate this guy?
[Okay, he's going to ask maybe one question or two, but Scott reaches up to his shades, and slowly slides them off, although he keeps his eyes shut. It's been a hot minute since he fired his optic blasts and he needs to mentally psyche himself up. Or something.]
no subject
It's complicated.
[ ......yeah. anyway ]
I could do it myself, but I think this should be more fun to see... How much room do you need?
no subject
Don't stand in front of me or near the statue and you'll be fine.
[He answers with his eyes still closed and waits for a few seconds for Mizuki to either move out of the way or get comfortable, before finally opening his eyes and letting that red concussive force emit from them and crackle through the air. It's incredibly fast and he hits his target-- the statue nearly exploding into pieces as his optic beams pass through. Scott immediately closes his eyes again, so that he doesn't accidentally destroy a different statue, before offering a slightly content smirk in her general direction.]
How's that?
1/2
She frowns, and— ]
no subject
Yeaah! That was totally worth it!
[ Way better than smashing it to bits or pushing it over, even if it was less satisfying for her to simply watch it happen. In the distance, there's already some chatter of people approaching, because they've honestly garnered some attention. ]
Thanks. [ She looks like she might want to say something else, but... doesn't. ] Uh, we should probably go now.
no subject
Oh, probably. Catch you later, right?
[It's not leaving someone behind if he knows that Mizuki can definitely run faster than him. He gives a wave at least as he tails it out of there because Scott's a little familiar with causing a bit of trouble and leaving the scene of the crime. This is definitely a bit more destructive than the stuff he normally does, so he's not sticking around to see the consequences of this.]
no subject
Unless... Hey, you wanna know how it feels?
[ To go at the speed of sound—or however fast she can go (note to self: ask Pewter). She doesn't clarify! Either way, he has like, ten seconds to respond. Maybe. ]
no subject
Uh, yeah?
[Scott likes going fast and he's pretty sure that's what she means.]
no subject
Just don't throw up.
[ ...Or they're gonna have a problem. She leaves it at that though, and that is the last warning he gets before she tightens her grip and kicks off running at hyper speed. The wind rushes and tosses her braids back, one of which may just hit him in the face. The extra weight actually makes her feel sluggish compared to what she's used to alone, but she ignores it, because somehow the company isn't awful. His stomach may wind up in knots, but eventually they stop.
It's Astralin's farm. ]
no subject
He wants to say all that to Mizuki, but he's slightly bent over right now, trying to get his bearings straight and not vomit in front of like a complete loser.]
That... urp...
[HE'S REALLY FINE...]
no subject
[ Mizuki looks a little concerned, but doesn't really expect him to answer that. She places a hand on his shoulder to wait out the heaves, but by now, she's worked on the farm enough that she knows where everything is. She gently starts to nudge him towards a nearby trash can. ]
Come on. [ Just a little further! ] You want some water or something?
no subject
[He sort of just stumbles along with her, somehow managing to not fall flat on his face as she guides him to a nearby trash can. Mizuki, you're definitely a bro and Scott intends to tell her that, once he's done heaving in the trash and trying to maintain some level of dignity. Okay, that's probably long gone, but he's going to cling to that thought still.
Once he's done, he's just going to plop on the ground and stare at the sky for a bit. Seems like the time to do that.]
🎀
Got it. You, uh...
[ stay right here, she wants to say, but it seems stupid in retrospect, so she just shakes her head. ]
I'll be right back.
[ No superspeed needed this time, but she wanders off to make sure this bro stays hydrated. He is definitely not 20 years old, and she intends to tell him so, assuming he's not so basic that he's turned off by such an ordeal. Wouldn't be the first time a dude could keep up with her!
For now... Well, some water, and maybe she'll show him around the farm that she personally helped build. ]
