[ She walks with, but she struggles to come up with something to ask. She proposed this, but she honestly has not had these kind of getting-to-know-you conversations much.
She looks at the flowers as she thinks (and walks). ]
What kind of gifts do you like to give and receive?
I like to give small luxuries - things that people normally don't get to be treated to. Little things to increase a person's comfort. Otherwise, it's necessities like meals, shelter, and warmth.
As for what I like to receive...
[she doesn't]
Well, anything will do. It's nice just to be thought of.
[ She knows, but she thinks someone like Viola would be thought of often. The number of people who don't think of themselves in this school is frightening.
She makes a small sound of understanding. It's why the shed completely destroyed her. Nier once asked her if she would switch dorms, and the likelihood is even lower than it's ever been. ]
[ Everything is fine. It will simply be funny if she gets and chooses to decorate her new home with flowers that make her feel like she's worth something and then she gets expelled. ]
I could never throw away what those flowers mean to me.

[and she'll approach!! WHAT IS KAINÉ WEARING BY THE WAY IT'S SO COLD THIS IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW
but she tilts her head as she approaches]
This is one of my favorite spots on campus.
no subject
(The sun is always out in NieR, so she is probably not used to actual winter temperatures, BUT IT'S FINE. Her poker face is great.) ]
It's calming.
no subject
It is!
[and she'll wander over then, raising her hands which are now holding onto a scarf! she'll reach over to gently place it around kainé's shoulders]
But it's so chilly... Please take this for now, but you should've gotten another scarf when you arrived. I'd hate for you to catch a cold.
no subject
I can't remember the last time I caught a cold.
[ Dismissive because idiots don't catch colds.
She doesn't reject the scarf, though. ]
no subject
I'd rather not tempt fate regardless.
Be sure to at least come inside when it gets dark, though. There should be blankets in our new expansion now.
no subject
She has to look away while talking about the expansion. Her heart is full to bursting. ]
I'll be fine.
[ That's as much of an agreement as anything from her. ]
This isn't supposed to be about me.
no subject
viola smiles at that and gestures to the path around the garden, moving to start walking along it]
Then you may ask me what you'd like - or give me a starting place if you'd just like me to talk.

anyway, how am i supposed to cheat the blind auction now. (anna voice) tch (i'm kidding) like i didn't already know she was like this. ]
That's not much. To be thought of.
no subject
but she'll just smile at that. a sad little shadow passes her face for a second before it disappears.]
... it's not a given - to be thought of. So I think it's a pleasant surprise to have people care about you at all.
I think that's why I'm not picky about what I can receive.

Favorite flower?
no subject
[literally every official art has her holding one]
What about you, Kainé?
no subject
[ All flowers are pretty. ]
It's the Lunar Tear.
[ She reaches up to the flower that's always in her hair. ]
no subject
It's quite beautiful. It suits you well.
no subject
It's.... rare. It's hard to find and hard to grow.
no subject
Is that so... Should we see if there might be anymore here? Maybe we can decorate the expansion with them. The others might like seeing them too.
no subject
After a moment: ]
Okay.
[ It's a step.
She starts heading towards where there are white flowers. ]
no subject
Only if it's to your liking, of course...
[but she'll follow after dutifully!]
no subject
I could never throw away what those flowers mean to me.
no subject
but she smiles at that]
Are they tied to significant memories?
no subject
She pauses as she thinks of how to say this. ]
My grandmother made me a garland of them, not long after I started living with her.
no subject
We'll see if we can gather enough and then see if more can grow.
no subject
She shakes her head. ]
Something different. To make new memories.
