[Open] Catch all!

Who: Bernadetta and YOU
When: First couple of weeks in the month
Where: Various locations
What: Bernadetta is having to adjust to some new changes. It's a lot to take in! For someone who is getting smaller every day...
Warnings: Hopefully just her usual anxieties. But I'll throw up a warning for potential mentions of child abuse (she had a rough childhood) just in case. Other than that it's just body transformation things!

A. Home is where the heart is (Closed to the people she lives with at the Lions or Eagles houses)

[Those who live with Bernie may not see her that often. Which, honestly, is pretty normal! She loves to spend time in her room and keep to herself. With that said there's always food for either household and she makes sure it's well suited to individual needs. Of course she makes sure that she doesn't make a mess either. After all she doesn't want to be a rude housemate!

With that said, her housemates might notice something rather...odd. Or maybe even a few things.

For one, she's definitely been getting smaller. She'd started out at around 5'5" but now those around might notice that she's got to have shrunk...several inches. Why, she's shorter than Edelgard now!

But there's more than that. Thin, almost hairlike things are starting to stick up from her hair. She's a little self conscious about how weird they might look so she's been dodging people. That and the fact that the window in the back of her clothes is definitely showing off very noticeable nubs that indicate her incoming wings. And are her ears...pointier?

Well she can't dodge people forever. Eventually one of them will find her! Especially if she thinks she's alone and has a space to do some sewing or reading in another part of the house.]

B. Sometimes she has to get outside

[It's rare for her to go outside right now with her odd looking changes but she knows she can't hide forever. Besides, she really wants to do some painting or sewing outside! Which means that she tries to find a private but pretty location to do just that. It helps that there's a lot of gardening things going on right now which happens to be one of her favorite things in the universe.

A nice vase of flowers arranged on the ground before her as she hums to herself while she either paints it or embroiders the design of it onto fabric. She seems lost in her own little world so she's not likely to notice she has company right away.

Don't let that stop you though. She might be jumpy but friendship is good for her!]


Wildcard

[If we have other plans feel free to use this one here! Otherwise feel free to plot with me and we'll figure something else out!]

[ooc: Just a heads up that tags will be slow on weekdays because of school for this month! Still I will do my best to not keep you waiting too long! Thank you for your patience in advance!]

[ —oh. pleasantly surprised by the invite, his eyes gather up a sort of life to them. expectant, maybe? one would say excitement if he ended up beaming, but he's not so explosive with emotions like that as of late (a few years). ]

. . . I wouldn't either. We'll just need to pick a place.

[ and in other news, he realizes better now: those are his scalies. ]

[bravelyathome]

[Her face lights up. He really doesn't mind. Smiling at him, she looks back to her work to finish up some details before carefully pulling the page away. Shyly, she offers it to him.]

Um...this is for you. I hope you don't mind that I...included you.

[And it's a very good work of him too! It looks just like him!]

[usurpers]

[ oh my god . . . why does bernie exist. it almost looks real. the further surprise only strays from eren’s face when it softens into loose-lipped smile. might be best to let that dry before taking it, but he’s already gone examining the handiwork from top to bottom. ]

It’s amazing, [ and with an almost awkward dip of his head, but with gratitude all the same: ] thanks.

[ he’ll just have to paint her, next time. and it won’t be so detailed. holding the plants out in his hands, he gently slides their stems back into the vase. ]

The flowers, too?

[bravelyathome]

Mm. [She nods her head, cheeks coloring at how pleased she is that he likes the picture.]

You can have them. I can always get more later.

[usurpers]

[ you know what else—? eren had considered doing it later, but he doesn’t have any concrete plans for now as he cradled his new vase. ]

Want to get more now?

[ why wait, right? they could go into town and . . . yeah. ]

[bravelyathome]

Oh. You don't have to do that. You must be busy and I've already taken up a lot of your time.

[usurpers]

Busy with you.

[ there was no other reason for him to hang around here for the time that he has already, and expectantly— the dragon watches her for an acceptance. ]

[bravelyathome]

Eh?

[As that sinks in, her face gets redder. And redder.]

M-me?

[There's no way he's serious. No way. That's too nice!]

[usurpers]

[ come along now, little fae, don’t make him drag you. in which, he’s kind of already is. through a softened smile hidden behind long strands of fallen hair, eren’s talons pinch the fabric of her shirt and give it a wordless right as he walks.

yes, you. ]

[bravelyathome]

O-okay...

[She's anxious but she's happy. Because he's proven himself trustworthy to her.

So it's off to go shopping for flowers they go. She even is happy to hold onto him the whole way.]
