♙17♙[In Person/Video]

[A young boy of about ten appears to be running around the garden happy as anything, not really caring that he was away from where he originally was, because in all truth the boy didn't care, he wasn't in a small room with only one tiny window as he soon tripped over falling flat on his face.

He stayed there for a moment before sitting up and slightly laughing, spotting something from the corner of his eye as he stood up going over to the blackberry as he stared at it, tilting his head questionably.]

What is this?

[OOC: Ten year old Finny, so before he was found and bald, but after he was part of the experiment.]

[Meirin saw him from the window, and as such, hurried out when she watched him trip and fall down. That can be very painful!

She knows from experience.]

Are you alright?!

[She called out to him, her skirt gathered in her hands to help her run faster. But now that she was closer, her hands fell down to her side again.

Hmm. This voice looks familiar. She frowns thoughtfully as she studies him. It'll come to her, she just needs a second.]

I'm sorry, I don't know how I got out.

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

Oh, you probably just went through the door!

[Meirin smiles, suddenly feeling very smart. But that smile gradually fades.]

...Finny?

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

How do you know my name? Are you one of them? I don't want to go back inside.

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

Because we work together! But...you don't seem to remember me at all. So I guess you wouldn't remember that either.

[She laughs awkwardly at that before settling down on her knees.]

We won't go inside if you don't want to. I'll stay out here with you. Would that be alright?

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

I worked? As what?



I like it outside.

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

You were the young master's gardener! And you were very good at it!

[Well, Meirin thinks he was good at it.]

You got to spend lots of time outside, and you made friends with birds and bunnies and all kinds of animals!

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

Whose the young master?



That sounds so nice.

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

He is the Earl of Phantomhive! And he makes lots of games and toys and candy!

[Because that seems like it would please him too.]

Anyway, you can play outside as much as you like. And then I'll make some tea for you. B-but only when you're ready!

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

Tea? What's that?

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

Y-you've really never had tea?

[Meirin is shocked at that for a moment before a soft smile touches her lips.]

I see. Well, I guess I didn't drink a lot of it before coming to work for the Young Master either.

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

No, never. We had to eat whatever we were given.

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

Oh...I'm sorry.

[Meirin sighs. It saddens her to hear about it still, because she likes Finny. He's a member of her dysfunctional little family.]

But now you can eat whatever you want to! Bard is very good in the kitchen!

[Well...]

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

Let's go inside then. Right?

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

[Meirin nods once before smiling at him and offering her hand.]

Right!

[lovesoutdoors.livejournal.com]

Let's go to... I don't know where we're going to.

[farsightedness.livejournal.com]

Why don't we start out in the kitchen! After we have a snack, we can go to the library and I can read to you.

[Or maybe just. Look at the pictures with him.]
