[ It's been several weeks since Howl and Siegfried involuntarily became quite close. They have exchanged a few greetings and brief conversation through their watches since then, but Siegfried's invitation prompts their first face to face reunion since Dorchacht.

Howl fetches a yard of clean cheesecloth and his wicker shopping basket while he taps a response with one hand. ]

Good day to you, and many thanks for thinking of me. Please send directions. I will arrive after a short delay. - H.

[ Later, there's a sharp knock at Siegfried's door, it's preceded momentarily by the scent of hyacinths. One might think Howl must be wearing an ungodly amount of perfume for it to be permeating through the door, but when he enters, the scent is no stronger. It's simply a part of the aura of beauty he casts on himself every day, with either his own limited abilities or spells he purchases elsewhere. Today, his hair is golden blond, styled with curtain bangs parted to the side. ]

Good afternoon to you, Siegfried! I hope I didn't cause you to wait for too long.

[ He catches scent of something far before Howl ever knocks on the door, even moreso due to his increased sensitivity when it comes to smell. For a moment, he wonders if there's a flower vendor passing by, but the scent doesn't pass.

It's only when he answers the door and ushers Howl inside that he realizes it's Howl who smells of Hyacinths, a pleasant scent that makes him feel as though the garden is within the home.

He smiles politely in greeting as he parts away from the counter. It's a rather unorganized mess at the moment, as he couldn't decide whether to sort based on type of material or color. ]

Hello, Howl. Actually, I haven't finished sorting through everything. So I apologize, but there's a lot to sift through. Feel free to take as much as you'd like.

[ In the meantime, he'll continue sifting through some roots.

A few minutes pass, and the scent of hyacinths begins to mingle with something else in the air. Siegfried looks up from where he works, trying to place the source, then looks back to Howl. ]

Hmm. Did you activate another enchantment, just now?

[galdorleod]

There's no need for you to do any sorting.

[ Howl is likely to take anything he's interested in on first glance, and if any sorting is needed, he'll do it himself. The collection of magical knick-knacks makes his eyes light up; he hurries past Siegfried with a broad, excited stride. The mix of auras and essences emanating from the magical items on the counter distract Howl from noticing anything else odd about the room.

When Siegfried interrupts their small talk with his question, Howl doesn't look up from the rusted oyster knife he's rotating around with both hands. ]

Hm? No. Is something the matter?
