Ask About Gardening

“Your hands bare traces of Chlorophyll; most often found in plants, might I ask what it is you grow?”

The woman glances at her hands as though meaning to find them drenched in the substance before flicking her eyes up at Violets screen.

“Um… tulips… I came across a florist a while ago on patrol… they had seeds and such and I’ve been trying to grow some…” her tone indicates that she’s had poor results thus far.

“I see… I’d quite like to see them sometime…” states Violet off handedly, taking care to frame the statement as a passing thought and not a demand.

“…You like gardening..?” Asks Officer MacGregor, brow raised and the corner of her mouth raised slightly, her body language indicative of confusion not indignation.

“I don’t LIKE things precisely… but I can appreciate things, I appreciate music as it by its very nature has a sense of order.. rhythm you’d call it… as for gardening… I appreciate that it instills dedication and patience in those practicing, fine qualities for a keeper of the peace.”

Once more a silence follows, the woman gazing into the machines facial screen as though trying to look past it and into the CPU within.

“I’ll… keep that in mind…” she says slightly bewildered, shaking her head slightly as she returns to her painstaking maintenance work.
