Summary: Frank and Blythe decide to get to know each other better after several lengthy conversations
The only time Blythe had met Frank was when Ryuzaki was ill, and that was hardly a decent time for introductions and niceties. She'd been in and out within ten minutes, and he'd stayed with the wounded detective, healing him in ways she was incapable of doing herself. It had left a great impression on her, though, of the kind of man Frank was and the kind of man he thought he was. It made her sad. It made her hopeful. But mostly it made her curious.
Naturally, curiosity wasn't a good thing - it could get one into a lot of trouble if focused on the wrong person. Blythe couldn't help it. After years of solitude, she longed to understand people better. And Frank was someone she felt she could relate to. She couldn't quite put her finger on why, but she trusted him. He was genuine, honest, and well-meaning. If that wasn't reason enough, she hardly knew what was.
That was why, after extensive communication, she and Frank had settled on meeting once more, this time under better circumstances. They had agreed on the greenhouse, as they both had purpose to go there. So again, a good deal of time after sunrise, she gathered up her basket and headed out of Asgard, counting steps out loud. The idea of making a cane crossed her mind once, but only once.
Slipping outdoors and counting herself into the garden, one hand always out, she found the greenhouse well enough. Going to work, she expected Frank would be along when he could. She was looking forward to it.
