I don't think anyone's really buried there [laugh track over 9S] but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. There's just some things you try not to do if you don't have to, and disturbing a grave is one of them.
[they appear to feel strongly about this. but putting aside the literal grave robbing...]
Okay. I kind of thought you'd say that. In that case, just...it doesn't have to be me. But one of us. If you find something, or you've got a theory about something, show us, tell us, let us talk it out with you. We don't spy on you or anything. We only know what's up with you guys if you talk to us.
Of course... that seems fair. Anything I find myself, I'll discuss with one of you. And if I hear from someone that they've learned something new, I'll urge them to talk it over with you themselves. [unless there's a pc where they've started talking about this and it's set after this one but we've already finished it. rip.] ...does that sound alright to you?
[awww. giving her a pat pat pat on the hand, holding it there for a second. they feel incredibly calming. like verdant, something old and steady, growing and decaying at once and replacing itself. the ambiance of watching a time lapse video of a flower grow.]
Most of them are good for making medicinal teas, and that's the easiest to do with the supplies I have right now. But I planted yarrow, too, and making poultices from that can help with getting wounds to stop bleeding, so I plan to make that once it's ready to harvest.
No... the things people talk about here, like aether, or magic, or even the abilities from the gumballs... I've never met anyone in Daxing who could use any of them.

[so that tracks.]
But isn't aether just a fancy word for life? [this misunderstanding is so stupid.]

[...]
It didn't really sound like it, the way it was described to me... it sounded like it was used to do magic.
