day 389 | action
[Sector 0 or Sector 4 | open]

[Today, Bonnie is a girl on a mission: she'll be hitting up Bulls-Eye and, as usual, levitating objects down to her petite height so she can actually see them. She's also dropping by Nine White Orchids for flowers (a girl's apartment can never have too many).

Or she may be taking a break in Sector 0, taking forever by those street food stands and deliberating on what to eat. What should've taken her five minutes is taking her twenty-five...

OR maybe she's lost. That happens. A lost girl on a mission is still a lost girl, so don't mind the one walking ten paces and then doubling back five. She's got a sense of direction. It's just not very accurate.]

[Casa Salvatore | closed to Damon]

[Every girl's bedroom needs a personal touch. Over the past few days, Bonnie's added bits and pieces to the space to make it feel less like a spare room and more like hers. A new teddy bear - a black one named "Daylight" - to echo Ms. Cuddles; new comforters and pillows; and even a small collection of old books along a bookshelf levitated their way in, bit by bit.

As she's hanging up a painting of a forest landscape, she stops to admire her handiwork. It's not until she turns back towards the door that she notices her observer.]

Hey. You're back early today.

[Or maybe the time flew by; she's not really sure which. Bonnie beams, gesturing towards all her little touches.]

Well? What do you think?

[Damon walks in, whistling cheerfully, a bundle of flowers in his arms. Feasting on fresh blood always puts him in a good mood. (And if his feelings about what happened between him and Nathan are actually kind of complicated, well, that's something easier dealt with by not dealing with it.)]

Looks like it needs some flowers.

[He bows elaborately and presents the bouquet to her.]

M'lady.

	[Who is this guy and what has he done with her favorite vampire?? Bonnie's laugh is a surprised one as she accepts the bouquet into her hands.] Thank you, but uh - what's the occasion? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thatasshole 2016-08-20 04:10 pm UTC (link)
	The occasion is I walked by a flower cart and thought — eh, why not? [A flower cart he passed after he came out of a public restroom, where he had changed into a clean shirt and washed the blood from his face.] Besides, they're free. It hardly even counts as a gesture. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Does too. You had to go out of your way for these.

[She's pleased all the same. He even remembered her favorite?? No one ever remembers her favorite. Don't mind her stepping past him to put these in a vase.

Months of living with Damon (and only Damon) have made her very, very wary of this good mood, though.]

Sooo... what happened? The Shack finally started stocking your favorite [blood] type?

	Can't I just be in a good mood? Maybe I woke up on the right side of the bed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-23 02:13 pm UTC (link)
	Of course you can. But I'm also inclined to think that something else happened too. [I kinda wish I saw this look more often. She's not betting on it being huge; after all, she'd know if Elena or anyone else from Mystic Falls were around. She pauses just long enough to smell the flowers. This is it, she's living the dream right here.] (Reply to this) (Parent)

	[As Bonnie makes her way out of Nine White Orchids, Zero is actually headed towards the shop. He has a bag in hand with a few supplies along with ribbons and other decor, and a rather large bag of soil slung over a shoulder, which he's bringing over from the garden.] Hey, Bonnie. Find what you were looking for? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 01:32 am UTC (link)
	Zero! Hey! [Bonnie rushes towards the door, holding it open for him. She's only got the one bag, and there may be a small potted orchid peeking out of it...] I sure did. I've been wanting potted plants for my place since, forever, and the selection's great. [Beat] I didn't realize you worked here. When'd that happen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	instrumented 2016-08-21 02:55 am UTC (link)
	Glad to hear it, then. [He didn't really need the gesture, but it's of course appreciated all the same.] Ah. Yuuki asked me to help out when she first opened it, herself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 03:06 am UTC (link)
	That's great! You're both from the same world, then? [She should've seen it coming, really. But she didn't, and the mere thought of them being close is enough to brighten her day.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	so precious, Bonnie ;o; instrumented 2016-08-21 03:37 am UTC (link)
	[The fact that she's so pleased by this both catches off, yet leaves him happy as well.] Yeah. We've known each other for a good number of years, now. She's my best friend. [. . .to say the very least.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the little things in life please her ;;;;;;; bonnfire 2016-08-21 02:41 pm UTC (link)
	[Awwww. She's so so pleased. Zero and Yuuki more than deserve this kind of companionship.] I'm so glad. Yuuki's been great, and you're great and now I've got one more reason to visit this place every day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	instrumented 2016-08-21 08:36 pm UTC (link)
	[Now he really does seem amused] I can't say I've ever gotten that kind of remark before, but thanks. [maybe because back home, the idea of a vampire hunter and a pureblood to be such friends brings on the resentment from both of their respective groups. . .] I'm sure she'd be especially happy to know that, though. She really puts her all into this place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 09:03 pm UTC (link)
	Really? I find that a little hard to believe. [Hm. She's missing something here, and she can't say she's keen to figure out those puzzle pieces.] I only let her know every time I walk in, but yeah. You can tell. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	instrumented 2016-08-21 11:02 pm UTC (link)
	Well I guess there have been a couple times. [Yori especially supports them, and he knows the Chairman does as well. He's sure others do talk, albeit behind their backs, and again, not necessarily in the most positive light.] Yeah. Things are- [how to word this?] busy back home, you could say. So she's never been able to do anything like this before. (Reply to this) (Parent)

have another of mine, why not

[Kazuki probably knows the layout of Bull's Eye like the back of his hand by now. Or at least the food area. He certainly does come here often enough. There's always needed to keep the refrigerator stocked, and always more ingredients to replenish. His small cart plenty full.

Upon catching sight of what Bonnie is doing down one of the aisles, as well as having recognized her, he makes his way over. ]

That looks like a rather convenient ability.

	!!!! yes please! c: bonnfire 2016-08-21 01:34 am UTC (link)
	When you're barely 5' 2" on a good day? Yeah. [Bonnie laughs, pulling down a couple of bottles her way. It's mostly hard-to-reach bottles, but she looks so victorious. Her smile only grows wide when she realizes who she's talking to.] Kazuki, right? It's good to see you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	soukyuu 2016-08-21 02:51 am UTC (link)
	I can imagine. [There are a few friends he can think of back home who certainly would like that kind of talent. Curiosity then gets to him- ] What else can you do? . . .if it's okay to ask. [He's pleased in turn.] Likewise. Although things did seem off the other day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 03:08 am UTC (link)
	Um, that's a good question. Usually, I prefer locator spells and barrier spells, but when I can't reach something, this comes in handy. [read: it's her most commonly used spell in Marina, and for good reason. She can't drag Damon everywhere she goes.] Just a bit, right? I hope you're feeling more like yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Locator spells? That makes me wonder about just where we are. I know it's all supposedly virtual, but. . . I can't help thinking about what's above all this water.

[He's just intent on not believing that all of what they're experiencing is in their minds. Even though there's likely evidence proving otherwise.]

I am. My friend- [boyfriend, now?] I'm just glad our memories of each other match up again. I really hadn't thought anything was wrong, though, amid it all.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 02:38 pm UTC (link)
	I wish I could tell you. My spells fizzle if I ask what's above or below us - and even then, the coordinates are fuzzy. [She frowns. It's not a pleasant thought, especially when she excels at locating places and people.] Really. You had temporary amnesia? Or was it something weirder? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I guess I'm not surprised by that. To a degree, some people who have powers here, if they use them too much or try too hard, it can also leave the person fatigued.

[He just frowns with the thought. It's happened with him before, too.]

I guess a little of both. I had memories of a life I'd never lived before.

[One which was made up of normalcy and peace. Things which otherwise is something out of a storybook for him.]

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 09:22 pm UTC (link)
	That would explain it. [But she's way more intrigued at his confession -] You mean you had false memories? Or do you think they really happened? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

soukyuu
2016-08-21 11:22 pm UTC (link)

I thought they really happened. I still knew I had been in Marina for as long as I have, and my memories of those I've met here didn't change. My memories of what my home and past were like, though, were completely different.

[He pauses, frowning a bit.] I knew that something had been going on with others, but never considered it was affecting me, as well, until someone I spoke with brought up the possibility.

	[She might've been embarrassed about the display of magic a few months ago, but at this point? Bonnie shrugs it off with a smile.] It was either this, or go find a ladder. Or, you know, someone taller than both of us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-08-21 12:34 am UTC (link)
	Sure. Those are options. I mean, I'd just do this. [Walking up on some air like she has an invisible ladder handy and grabbing a can from the top shelf.] Whatever works. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bonnfire 2016-08-21 01:41 am UTC (link)
	[!!!!] Oh, no way. [Now that's new. Color Bonnie intrigued.] What kind of magic was that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2016-08-26 04:25 pm UTC (link)
	No kind. [Heading back down.] It's an ability I was born with. I mean, it didn't activate until puberty, but the genes were there. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Unfortunately. [She laughs a little nervously, turning towards her company.] Everything here looks so good! I've never had chicken samosas before, but those water tribe noodles look equally as good too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	melioristic 2016-09-15 09:15 pm UTC (link)

	Yes, actually. [Bonnie beams, pulling out her shopping list.] I'm trying to find a potted plant for my room. What would you recommend? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fadingsunshine 2016-08-25 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	It depends of what you need. Do you want a regular one or one with flowers? High maintenance or simple to take care of? Big or small? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Hm. [She hadn't considered that! Bonnie mulls it over for a second,] That could work. I know I can't bring any of it back to Damon, 'cause he doesn't really do the human food thing, but... it's all too good to pass up too. (Reply to this) (Parent)
