[OPEN] An easy quest...
Characters: Ib and open
Where: The history museum
When: April 11th
Summary: Ib has been given a quest to get a new job. It's a simple one, but...
Warnings: None
[Ib is sitting on the steps in front of the history museum, a letter in her hand and a covered painting next to her. She's eying it somewhat warily. Rose is nowhere to be seen. Ib had wanted to do this quest all on her own, but now she's wishing that her moogle had come along.
It should be easy. Just deliver this painting to Jessie. It is easy. It's such a silly thing to be nervous about. The gallery... that was a long time ago. And it wasn't even in this world. Except... this world has a lot more magic and monsters than hers ever did.
She wonders if she should peek. Maybe if she saw the painting she'd feel better. Or maybe worse. Maybe she should ask someone for help? No, they'd only laugh. They'd think she was just a scared little kid. And she's worked hard to seem more grown up. So here she is, uncertainly glancing at the painting next to her.]

[Even as a child Zelda had never minded the weird tastes of medicine of foods. It keeps her strong and so she's learned to live it over time. Of course she has a talent for making sweet breads even those are bland compared to cakes and deserts.]
You carrying the painting alright?
[It looks large and cumbersome in Ib's arms.]
no subject
It's a little heavy, but I can handle it.
[It would be easier if she wasn't holding it as if it were some sort of bomb.]
no subject
Well I think we are almost there.
[She points over towards the building that Jessie uses as her lab. She hasn't been told where they are going per-say but it is a far assumption.]
It's close.
no subject
[Ib's relief is palpable as the lab comes into view. She speeds up her pace just a little.]
I hope she's there.
no subject
[Zelda has been to the lab before and while it wasn't the best visit she knew it well now. Her pace matches Ib's as they approach the building.]
no subject
H- hello? Is anyone there?
no subject
Yes? Oh! The painting!?
[He seems to flutter around calling to others to take the picture from Ib's palms. Zelda smiles watching the young girl but staying just outside of the building. It is Ib's mission after all.]
[ooc: Hope it's okay that I tossed a research moogle in there. >.<]
no subject
[Ib is very glad to be rid of the painting. And it only takes a few minutes for them to modify her crystal to include the job she was promised. Ib thanks the moogles and heads back out to join Zelda. Her steps are lighter and her smile is brighter now.]
I did it. They gave me the job too.
[She holds up her rose-shaped crystal as though jobs were visible within it.]
no subject
[Zelda's smile is wide as she begins to walk forward.]
I'm glad Jessie isn't being to unreasonable with these job requests.
[Though Zelda had to run around for a few days for one of them.]
Would you like to keep walking? I need to run by the shops.
no subject
Yeah, she could have given me something a lot harder.
[Jessie couldn't have known about Ib's 'unusual' history with artwork. She cheerfully falls into step with Zelda.]
Sure! What are you buying?
no subject
[It isn't much but she wants to create a place where the heroes can relax and have fun. She knows they have things to do but they also had to keep their spirits up.]
If they have some you can help me pick out the colors.
no subject
[Now that has her excited.]
Can we plant roses?
no subject
[She's excited to get the garden together and she hopes the heroes like it too. Link has already started to build picnic tables per her request.]
no subject
[She'll be disappointed when she discovers that blue roses aren't actually a thing..]
And when the garden is ready, we can have a party! A fancy one where we all dress up.
[She's heard the phrase 'garden party' before, but doesn't actually know what one is. But she imagines something like an outside formal ball.]
no subject
That sounds like fun. What would be have at such a party?
[There must be food and refreshments.]
no subject
[She frowns thoughtfully. What do people eat at garden parties?]
Maybe.... tiny sandwiches? Little fancy cakes?
no subject
[Zelda presses a finger to her lips as her lips curl into an energetic smile.]
I think that would be fun! We should do that. I don't mind making the food.
no subject
[Not that she knows whole lot about cooking.]
And we can all wear fancy dresses!
no subject
I'd like that. Do you think you can help me plan it?
[Zelda is fine with doing the cooking.]
no subject
[Oh, wait. She might be getting ahead of herself.]
Oh, but we have to finish the garden first, right?
no subject
That's right.
[They quickly arrive at the shop and Zelda greets the man behind the counter with a wide smile. She's spoken to him before.]
I have a few things picked out. Why don't you pick something as well.
no subject
[She knows exactly what she wants.]
A red one and a blue one!
[The poor clerk hesitates, looking at them apologetically. Ib is about to be disappointed.]
'I'm so sorry miss, but blue roses are made by dying white roses. There's no such thing as a blue rose bush...'
Aw....
no subject
[Zelda just smiles. She isn't sure what sorts of colors roses come in but she is sure that they can find other colors besides red.]
Or Red and another color?
no subject
[She hesitates for a moment over the decision.]
Yellow?
[Mary's color. But Ib had never really hated Mary. Burning her painting had been something they did only because she left them no choice. Ib had wanted to be friends. They could have been friends if Mary hadn't tried to kill them...
The clerk nods.]
Yes, we have some lovely yellow rose bushes.
no subject
[Zelda smiles and hands over the gil before leaving the store with Ib. She has both plants in her arms and a smile across her lips.]
I'm going to plant these in a few days if you'd like to stop by and help.
[She wants to make sure that the ground is warm enough.]
