He had worked in this garden for hours each day, and he was still amazed at the beauty it showed.
"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."
Nasuke smiled to himself, thanking her again for it seemed the 20th time today. She was surely being nice to him, and he had never been shown appreciation at all before he had joined the 4th division.
He watched her place the flower gently into the spring. To think that he was lucky enough to serve under such a Captain as Ariana.
He remembered his old master...
Nasuke still had the scars on his back and chest, as well as the bumps under his thick head of hair to always remember him. He had been rough, with an evil look in his eyes and a stick never far from his hand in case Nasuke ever gave him an excuse to punish him.
To even put an image of him in Nasuke's head made him wince, almost as if his form hurt Nasuke's eyes. It was so very different to the Captain, who was if nothing else, very pleasing to look upon.
She walked up to the white marbel bench with effortless grace, and motioned for him to join her.
He hesitated, swallowing.
"No need to be polite Ma'am. I-I can stand if you wish me to."

"I wish for you to sit beside me, Lieutenant," she said. "Unless you would rather stand."

He thought for a moment, looking at the ground, seeming very much like the young man he was. He did want to sit down, but was it proper?
He thought not. But she told him to do what he wanted, something he was not accustomed to very much.
Slightly awkwardly, he approached the bench, and sat down next to his Captain.
He breathed out a little shakily, but he gave her a smile.

She smiled encouragingly at him. She liked this young man's personality. He was quiet, but she sensed that he was also trustworthy and loyal. She nodded at him. "You seem like you weren't allowed to act on your own will very much before," she observed.

He smiled back at her as she smiled at him, but then he caught himself and looked away, toward the spring. The smallest hint of red appearing on his cheeks.
"You seem like you weren't allowed to act on your own will very much before," he heard her say.
He blinked and nodded.
"Yes. I honestly cannot remember a time when I wasn't taking orders or..." he paused, thinking. He then glanced toward her.
"Sorry, I've never really had anyone who cared enough to ask me."

She nodded at him to continue. "I find that I was always a better listener," she pointed out. "Please, tell me."

He shuffled his feet and looked down.
"I never had parents. I was raised in the household of the Kuyichiki's. One of the great noble famillies."
He then looked up and watched the spring, still seeing the flower Captain Ariana had placed there floating in the torrent. "I was raised as their servant, doing whatever they wished and desired. I pretty much did all of the work in the house I suppose."
He then pulled his long robe sleeves over his arms, and crossed them. He didn't want Captain Ariana to trouble herself over the scars on his arms. It was a close call earlier when she grabbed the leaf off of his head. It was lucky that she was so graceful and his hair was so thick, or she might have felt the bumps on his head from his old master's discipline.
"The Master disciplined me when I made a mistake," he went on as he thought of it. "I was as young as his children, and they often teased me as we grew up, the girls telling me lies and the boys hitting me."

Ariana listened; she had also grown up with an abusive family, though not to the same extent, as at least she had had the opportunity to stay out of the way. "I'm sorry to hear that," she murmured. "I hope that you will find that under my leadership you will have the freedom and respect to think what you will and act the best way you see fit. Within reason and after consulting me, of course," she added.

"O-oh, yes of course Captain Ariana," he said, getting off the bench and kneeling in front of her. his head down so all she could see was his dark blue hair. "I promise on my life I will do my best to follow your orders and protect you. A-as well as...as well as learn how to do things on my own."

Ariana looked at him and shook her head. "Lieutenant," she said gently, "I know you will do well. I see it in your eyes."

Nasuke looked up at her and into her green eyes, and nodded. "You are too kind Captain Ariana."
He then looked away and stood up.
"Shall I make you some tea? Or would you like me to fetch you an apple?"

"Tea would be nice," she said. "Make some for yourself too."

He nodded and smiled.
"Just give me a few minutes." he said, and walked away.
Within about 2 minutes, he returned with tea leaves, a pot, and a few logs of wood. He set the logs down and placed them together, and then he dunked the pot into the spring to draw the water.
He then took out a flint and a stone, and began striking it, trying to create a spark for the fire.

Ariana watched him, her hands clasped in her lap, the wind gently lifting her silvery hair. She breathed in, raised one of her hands, and breathed out, a slight breeze, that held a little bit of magic, to help the fire catch. The small flame began to dance merrily.

Nasuke jumped slightly when the fire began to start, but then he realized that it was Ariana's doing, and he nodded to her.
He then set the pot over the fire, and dropped the leaves into the pot.
He reached into his robes, and then he held 3 different fruits in his hands. An apple, an orange, and a mango. He drew a small knife that was in his sock.
He then turned around and actually began juggling the 3 fruits.
"So, what flavor would you like Ms. Byrd?"
