2nd sketch - [action]

[sketchingideals]

[One good thing about being taken here is that Jeb hasn't run out of inspiration for art. Currently, he's found a nice place to sit and draw the surroundings around him.

Feel free to approach him, but don't be surprised if he doesn't hear you at first or jumps when he does. This is something that steals his focus very quickly.]

I think I've done better before... [But he's beginning to believe her, all too trusting.]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

[Sigh. This is taking longer than she anticipated.]

You really are quite the epitome of artistic ability then. To be able to create such dazzling work, but then best yourself by saying your previous works are of a higher standard~

[So now she's going to try again at grabbing the drawing, only this time slower so it looks more as though she's taking it, rather than snatching it.]

[sketchingideals]

...I guess I could let you have this one. But wait a second, okay? I'll tear it out.

[She just seems so nice...]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

[Going to pull her hand away now then.] Very well then. I can't wait to get my hands on such a beautiful piece of work~

[sketchingideals]

[Carefully tears the drawing away from where it was bound.]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

[And once the drawing is free she takes it roughly and examines it.]

Oh yes, so professional. It is quite clear how much work has gone into it. Wouldn't it be a terrible shame if something were to happen to it~?

[sketchingideals]

Well, yeah, I guess it would be...

[It really would, but at least it wouldn't be one of his more personal works, right? He tries to see it that way. Why would she ask, though? She must really like it!]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

[Oh yes, Yuuka likes it so much that she proceeds to rip the drawing to shreds.]

Such quality clippings as these will surely be of use to me as compost for my garden, once they have had the chance to degrade of course~

[sketchingideals]

[Jeb just stares in complete shock. What just happened here, and why...?!]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

[Staring back. Gosh, you humans and your reactions.]

Were not ever taught that it is rude to stare? Avert your gaze, human.

[sketchingideals]

Why did you...?

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

Why did I what? Honestly, you're acting as though there is some sort of problem here, though I cannot detect anything as such~ Unless of course you're just another a human with a weak mind. After all, you don't seem capable of forming complete sentences~

[A strip of the drawing falls free from her lands on the ground. Don't worry though, she won't leave it there. Picking it up, she rips it into a few more pieces and places the shredded drawing into her pocket.]

Would you happen to have any more drawings on your person~? After all, my garden is quite large. A single sheet will not suffice.

[sketchingideals]

["Weak mind"... he isn't... he doesn't--

He glares, holding his drawings to his chest protectively.]

No!

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

How vague. Are you responding to the fact you are a weak, pathetic human, or to my request for more of your wonderful artwork~?

[Turning around, she starts to walk off. She's had her fun, so there's no point in pursuing things further. Did she show up for the pure purpose of riling up a human? Seems like it.]

Good day to you~ Perhaps I shall find you again someday to let you know how my flowers are progressing under the aid of the fertilizer you have supplied me with.

[sketchingideals]

[He continues to glare, shaken from everything that's happened in those last few moments and trying so hard not to snap for once. It's hard, though. He's trembling, too.]

...I don't want to know.

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

That is definitely a shame~ I'm sure you will come around eventually human. After all, my blooms truly are a sight to behold.

[Smirk. Not that it's visible beneath that parasol with her back turned.]

Now I will have to go out of my way to ensure you are up to date in regards to my gardens.

[sketchingideals]

Why are you acting like this? What did I do to you?!

[He's angry, but he's also so very confused.]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

Surely the fact you are human is reason enough to act however I please around you~

[So basically 'you were born a human' is what Jeb has done. And she's effectively doing this for no reason but to harass him. Such a kind youkai, hm?]

[sketchingideals]

What does that have to do with anything?! There's nothing wrong with me being human!

[Oh, a kind youkai indeed, pressing all those buttons.]

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

There's nothing wrong with being human~? My my, you really are an idiotic human, even amongst their already low standards of intelligence.

[It's always more entertaining when the human gets riled up~ She's going to jab those buttons harder now.]

[sketchingideals]

That's not true! Why would there be anything wrong with being human?!

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

Of course it's true~ You are living proof of this fact.

[...]

Oh, and I meant that in regards to being human, and your exceptionally poor intellect. I figured I should clarify for someone like you, just in case you could not comprehend basic conversation.

[sketchingideals]

[SNAP.]

I can understand just fine! Why are you putting yourself above everyone else? What even gives you that right?!

[floralphantasm.livejournal.com]

I am not placing myself above anyone~ It is merely natural order that humans are below youkai and nothing more.

[Sorry, but she was done with Jeb awhile ago. Turning around again.]

Now do not question knowledge that should be simply understood and learn your place as a lowly, boring, mundane human~

[sketchingideals]

I'll never accept that!

[Keeps glaring. As angry as he is, he really hopes she leaves soon.]
