((And it kinda does, don't it?))
Claudia looked back a Miiro with a newfound respect in her eyes.
"I've never known that much about plants. I just enjoy eating fresh food and herbs, but that sounds like something I should know. Maybe you can show me do some cuttings? I've been wanting to grow basil and sage for a while, so that sound great!"
She decided that she shouldn't tell her that she was planning on growing Hemlock as well. She might flip her lid.
At Miiro's reaction, Claudia couldn't help but stand and laugh a bit. She thought the idea was kind of ridiculous as well.
After the laughs had calmed down she spoke with a slight grin, "Yeah, it's just the last time someone who wasn't a thief followed me down here, they were really freaking out about all the weaponry and plants. I was laughing my head off until they almost called the police. Yeah.... I brought him to Shadow since he had caught me practicing with dreams."
A frown spread halfway over her face as to what had happened to the man, but she didn't really care that he didn't remember the encounter, but it was always sad to force a person to forget something.
Claudia shook of the thought and returned to answering Miiro, "Yup. The obscure green one."
She returned to her cooking area and set the berries down on the flat boulder. She moved around to the other side of the boulder and opened one of her small chests of things; handcarved wooden dishware. She pulled out her favorite sets and set them over on her cooking rock. Claudia turned to the fire, realizing that it was smart to get it going, and she moved to the pit. She grabbed some logs and twigs and a tad of straw and wool from her bed. She pulled some flint and steel from one of her pockets and began striking them together to light up the tinder.
(lol...XD)
(Yeah, first thing that came to mind 'green NZ apples!' cause their trees are tiny, and their fruit is small, but lovely and sweet and yum.^.^)
"I love plants, so I strive to learn as much as possible about them. I dislike eating non-organic food because that usually means things have been injected in whatever it is, be it meat or vegetables or whatever, to grow faster and to look better and such, I don't have enough room to grow my own food, however I'm good friends with a few farmers, mostly because my good friend is a farmer, and he has introduced me to a lot of them, and so I get often free produce from the extras that they can't take home from the markets and things. Though I do usually try and pay them too as I don't like getting things for free."
Putting on a thoughtful face Miiro replied, "I'm...not sure if sage and basil can be grown from cuttings...Herbs are very delicate, it's best to buy a plant from a garden shop, it's difficult to raise herbs or other delicate plants from seeds or cuttings or anything, though cutting usually is the best option if you don't or can't buy something....And there are different techniques for different sorts of plants, it gets quite complicated....And takes years to learn the different ways to do cuttings....." she didn't really want to spend a couple of years teaching the girl either, that'd be sort of annoying, especially since Claudia kept hiding things, though Miiro was hiding things herself, so she couldn't complain.
"Things like herbs are runner sorts of plants usually though so if you get one of the runners, then you can do a sort of cutting, but it's a bit different to normal cuttings, the technique might not even be called 'cutting' at all, if you just want to learn how to grow herbs then that's fairly simple enough to teach."
Confused at that Nezumiiro cocked her head to the left, like how a puppy that is confused, yet a bit curious about something, that is the sort of expression she had.
"What's so bad about the plants? You'd think they'd freak out more to the fact you're living in a cavern like place, underneath a forest rather than the plants, though I suppose the weapons are sort of understandable....I'm quite used to seeing lots of weapons though so I sort of find it normal..." she trailed off, her parents used to own a hunting ground, which she hated with all her heart, and she grew up with weapons, and learnt how to use them, many different varieties too, though she always adamantly refused to hurt an animal with a weapon.
In the end when it got passed down to her, she sold most of it, as why should she keep a place and upkeep something she hated? But first she turned it into a house so it couldn't be used as a hunting ground area again, and sold off a lot of the land to various people, though she still owned half the land, in case she ever wanted to build something on it or she got enough money to own a few horses or something like that.
"That sounds harsh, since you sound sad, did you know him well? Not that it really matters for me to know or not, though I could be wrong, as you only just met me, an hour or so ago, yet here I am. Perhaps you're just too trusting of people...." frowning slightly she remarked, "I'm too trusting too."
Picking one, two three, then two more for good luck she half raised her load to Claudia, "This enough?" she asked, wondering where to put the fruit, at least she thought they were fruit, they looked it.
As she waited for Claudia to answer she watched her light the fire with interest, she didn't know how to do that sort of thing, as the fire lit up it flared up a little causing her to jump slightly from a bit of shock, causing an apple thing to bounce from her arms and roll under the logs, and tinder, well more rolling on top of the tinder, it didn't really start to cook or anything, but it would be ruined by the fire if it didn't get taken out quickly.
"Oh, I'm sorry, that was clumsy of me-" Miiro started to say.

Mark
He nodded, “Obviously.”
The boy shrugged, “Suppose not, bt it’s not like yo have an idea what’s going on, felt I should state it.”
Mark nodded, “Yes, sh*t is accurate.”
The boy rolled his eyes, “A, she started it, B, it’s not like anybody in dream would know she had a nutzo alter ego and C it was 3 idiots thank you very much.”
The boy tapped his temple, “The disease scr*ws with your brain, alters your personality, makes you see things. It’s still pretty minor in my case though. If I was thinking logically I would’ve done like your friend in the toilets and hid.”
((Lol, doesn’t she realize thers hardly a single person there who isn’t already nuts?))
((Charlie on her own as well, aloung with their dad. Yep, definitely a family trait))
((I really need to stop listening to nightcore while I rp, I’ve been listening to this song whenever I rp Damien ever since Clairna went nuts

))
Damien
He nodded, “A few alter-egos teach you one h*ll of a lot about controlling people.”
Damien was relieved when she relaxed, but tensed when she asked about his arm, “I held it out and told you to go ahead.” ,he nodded, giving her a small, hopefully reassuring smile, “I figured you could.”
He glanced off in the direction where he knew the other half of his arm still lay on the floor and telekinetically pulled it over, looking back towards Clairna once he got it close to her, “That’d be nice.” ,he glanced at his arm then to Clairna, “It wasn’t you, you can stop looking at me like you think I’ll never forgive you, it’s okay.” ,the albino smiled lightly, “If there was anything for me to forgive you for I already would have.”
((Lol, “you chopped off my hand, but it wasn’t you so it’s okay”
Wow Damien, you need to find some less cheesy things to say))
He kissed her cheek, “Good luck.”
Savanah
She nodded, “I would like that.”
((X3))
((True true))
((Well, at least he’s used to it.))
((Kay, Good luck on the breast cancer thing, hope it’s gone))
(Sorry...D: I just love that series (many aussies do, and a lot of other people, most people that have read the book or the whole series love it.:3) and I got shocked so much that you hadn't read it yet I did sort of push you to get it...
So again, I'm sorry about that. There are quite a lot of books in the series though, so be warned, once you've read the first, you'll most likely want to read the whole series, and that's a lot of books.... 
)Nodding a little she said, "I suppose you have a point, but remember I did meet that girl, and she talked about the disease and her not being contagious and such too, though not in as much detail as you just explained, so I did have a bit of an idea beforehand, plus I'm not stupid, I don't need you to spell things out for me." she said this in a calm, warm tone, she was in quite a content mood right now, despite the situation.
Smirking, well if tigers could smirk, she said, "I take it you were one of those three idiots? Or why else would you be defending the 'idiots'?" she chuckled slightly, finding him amusing, "I probably wouldn't guessed you had a hand in it if you hadn't decided to blurt out a defensive comment, and because of that, accidently revealing you were part of it." she tried not to all out laugh at his remark, it was very hard not to do so, the way he said that was just so very amusing, at least to her it was.
"And quite a few people in dream know, Alex for one, and anyone that was here before that disease came around, and then survived after, would or should know that Clairna has an alter ego."
Kahen didn't like being a pry, so didn't ask who the other two idiots were.
Frowning slightly in thought she cautiously added, "Wait, it's not that is it? That disease from ages ago? If it is then that's real bad, and that's an understatement...." she trailed off, not wanting to mention in front of Yu that Mark is a dead man, as are all the other people with it, that is, if it really was that disease, but know that she'd thought about it, she couldn't think of anything else that it could be.
She shook her head, there's no logical solution when you're dealing with Clairna in that state, not that I've ever witnessed something like that or anything....I'm suprised it isn't wreaking havoc anymore, last time this happened, she was still a child, and she killed at least a million people, at least that's what I've heard, it hasn't come out fully for a long time. But logic is about the last thing you need when facing something like that." the last sentence was half added as an afterthought.
(Probably she does realise...XD Which is probably why she so badly wants to sort/help them out, though course she ignores her own craziness.:3 )
(Yep, family trait indeed, it can't be anything else, they're really are all quite alike.X3 )
((I find this of relevance somehow, but Damien lately keeps reminding me so much of this guy from Bleach->http://i.cdn.turner.com/asfix/repository/8a25c3920e5857a1010e585bcd5a0002/bleach-byakuya-the-truth-behind-his-betrayal.jpghttp://www.absoluteanime.com/bleach/byakuya.jpg Both are so very polite and have such similar personalities(minus schizophrenia), cold hearted, doesn't show emotion(and is questioned on having emotion at all at times), not that good around people, but has a kind side if you look deep enough...All you need is the red eyes, and change the hair from black to white and then you have Damien!
))(Awesome song! Now you've made me love nightcore *has been since I first read your post and listened to the song, been doing a nightcore marathon thing* I've listened to SO many songs.....A lot going into my 'favourites' bookmark I can't believe I never really listened to much nightcore at all before, I love it (though the original songs are awesome too most of the time) currently listening to this one over and over....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sB-CDQZw2NU&feature=related)
((Which you'd probably like wildfire, I kinda get the feeling you like violinish sort of music as well as lots of other vastly different sorts of music))
(((Not much difference between the original and the nightcore though...
)))(I think I like it when there's more of a difference)
"You have it far worse off than me, you have to deal with your other sides all the time, I've only got one other side, and it rarely causes trouble." she left out the fact that her other side did constantly try and gain control, she just could suppress the one extra personality usually, sort of adding as an afterthought she said, "Controlling anything is hard."
Carefully she moved his arm towards her, and she shakily picked up the severed part, she moved it so that it was connected, but not actually connected, just the severed part touching the stump of Damien's arm.
She moved a hand over it and gently healed it, so that you couldn't tell his arm had been cut off at all, fixing all of the wound to how it was before the incident.
Gingerly she half stroked his now healed arm for a secound, before letting his arm go, "I'm sorry," she whispered, "I don't deserve to be forgiven you know...." the secound part she added after a few secounds of sitting there, she didn't know what else to say, even if Damien had forgiven her, it was highly unlikely she'd ever forgive herself.
(lol, yeah...X3 But it's sort of cute that he's saying stuff like that, shows that he really does have quite a soft human heart once you get to know him)
Trying to remember where that boy had been she realised he had probably run off by now, she sighed, before seeing out of the corner of her eye a boy sitting in some sort of chair, he didn't look all that well, but wasn't that the boy that said he knew how to find a cure? Clairna looked at Damien with a nervous expression, "Isn't that the boy I need to help or whatever over there? I didn't hurt him did I?" she half pointed in the kid's direction.
She hoped the kid was ok, if he wasn't then there only lead would be gone....
(lol, that's true, but still, just because he's used to it, doesn't make it any less bad than it is)
(Yeah, I hope they get it all in one shot too, she's going to surgery to get it removed in a couple of days, they're going to remove a bit more than 'necessary' in the hopes that they get all the bad cells, and so it won't come back again, so fingers crossed it's all ok)
(is not done, just posting this while I go do something else for a bit)
(Is done, lol, I'm doing this a lot lately.X3)

Glaring in the voice's direction she growled, "Are you that selfish and self centered?! I should kill you for being so rude, demanding, and non-caring, why don't you come in and see for yourself, you lazy cow." Clairna was getting angry at the girl, she tried to calm herself down by taking a few deep breaths, if she got very angry or got filled with a similar negative emotion right now, who knows if her other side will seize the opportunity to come out or not, no it was very likely her other side would try and come back again.
So Clairna had to calm herself down.
