Ariana smiled gently. "I passed it on my way here, it looks fine. Better than before," she added.

"You honor me Captain Ariana." he said. "Thank you."
As they walked, he regarded her curiously with a tilt of his head. "Are we going towards the garden? Or is there a destination you have in mind Ma'am?"

"No," she replied thoughtfully. "Nowhere in particular. I was just walking. Sometimes I find that my feet lead me to a destination, and it's usually a good one. At least, I've never wandered into trouble."

"Truly?" he said, curious as to a way of life such as that. "I do not think I could ever walk a path that wasn't set before me Ma'am."
He sighed and looked at the newly painted barracks.
"I've only ever been told what to do." he spoke aloud, but then his mouth snapped shut. Hoping he did not seem too open.
"N-not that it is such a bad thing Ma'am. I am delighted to serve."

Ariana tilted her head to observe him. "I hope that under me you have a bit more freedom," she said softly. "To wander one's own path is the way to true self-recognition." Though she remembered that she, too, had once had no freedom, as the last captain's lieutenant...

"Very wise words Ms. Byrd." Nasuke commented. "I will still need to work on it for a long time though."

"It'll get better, in time," she smiled kindly. "You needn't worry. Ah, and see, I've led myself right into the garden..." She gave a light sigh. "Some habits just become so much a part of you that you do it without thinking."

He smiled as he and his Captain walked into the lovely garden. He had never thought he was good enough at nearly anything, but he was proud of his tending this large garden.
The path they walked down curled and twisted, and if they traversed through it correctly, they would end up in the open middle, a place to perhaps stop and rest if his Captain saw fit for him to.
"I understand what you mean about habits Ma'am. I will probably switch between calling you Ms. Byrd or Captain Ariana for a good while." he laughed lightly, showing slight embarressment.

"It's alright," Ariana assured him. She paused for a moment and raised her hand to a large rose. "They are growing beautifully," she said happily. "You must be very proud of them."

He blinked, slightly taken aback. He had felt proud of himself as soon as she mentioned it. It was if she could read him like a scroll of parchment. He felt like he should have gotten used to it by now, however. She was an extremely perseptive person.
He was also glad that she was one to appreciate the beauty of the garden.
"I appreciate it Captian Ariana." he said, bowing. "Especially that you took such interest in the Roses. I planted them for you, because you reminded me of a Rose. Just as I planted the Tulips for Ms. Kim, a-and the tea leaves ahead were to represent myself."

Ariana loved the thought that he'd put into the garden; it lightened her heart. "Roses were always my favorite," she told him, continuing to admire the place she loved. "I used to have them when I was little. My mother would care for them like they were her own children."

They were her favorite! Nasuke had chosen well, feeling a rare moment of pride. She seemed genuinely happy, and it seemed to enhance her presence as if she were a Rose that had just blossomed herself.
He had learned long ago that he put attributes to his superiors that they at times did not possess, but this seemed genuine with Captain Ariana.
"Again, I wouldn't know too much on that Captain. I was not raised by my parents. I never knew them to be honest."
A single leaf then fell into his dark blue hair, and he looked up curiously to see it stuck there. He tried to comically blow it out of his hair.

"It was a long time ago, and my family was not a happy one," Ariana said, her tone factual, as if she talked of an event that had happened far back in her memory. Then she laughed, the laughed that sounded like gentle wind chimes, reached up, and picked the leaf from Nasuke's hair. Carefully, she opened her palm and the leaf settled there; she closed her eyes, breathed deeply, and felt the flow of magic. She closed her fist, and moments later, when she opened it, it had become a small flower.

Nasuke had a young and curious look on his face as he looked up at the leaf. Then all at once, he stiffened when he saw her reach for the leaf.
"Oh, you d-" he began, but she gently lifted it off of his head.
Once he saw her close her palm, and open it to reveal a small flower, his gray eyes grew wide and twinkled in amazement.
"Wow" he breathed. "Its very pretty..."

"Amazing how something as simple as this leaf can, with a little nudge, become something so beautiful. And that is how this garden has formed. With gentle care and a lot of patience." She continued to walk forward, and they entered the wide garden center. She approached the center fountain, which merrily spit water into the bowls below it, and placed the flower in the water, where it drifted along with the flow in a circle.

Ariana made her way over to a white marble bench and sat down, motioning for Nasuke to join her.
