Hello? Can you hear me?
... I can, yes. Is something the matter?
For watching it all like some spectacle, you mean?
No, that it even happened in the first place. Patches is crazy. There's nothing anyone can do to stop him. But... I guess we're both still weeds and we all are going to be associated with him. So, there's nothing I can do but apologize.
As for watching, I personally wasn't watching. I was terrified. I drank booze until I felt dizzy and then just stared at the ground. ...What happened definitely wasn't entertainment. But, I didn't feel like I could just run away either. Once I was there, I thought it'd draw more attention to myself if I left...
...I guess that makes me a coward, but that's how it is.

... I cannot say anything about having to act a certain way to survive. But at the same time, I still feel hurt by it all. It's a very complicated feeling.
No, I understand. It did... just happen.
You don't have to accept it. But, on behalf of Weeds, I'm sorry.

... Thank you for that at least.
( the question is, how much does she believe it? because before she went into a panic over the puppet, all the weeds looked like they were having fun. and this is sounding a lot like someone sonata wishes she could forget forever. )
... I hope that you have a good day, Your Name. And that you can relax a little now.

You know... it occurs to me... I never heard what you're called.

I did figure it out. Though, I was going to call you Rosemary before I did.
...Ah, something to fit a weed, huh?
It's pretty, but I like Your Name.
It's pretty, but I like Your Name.
You look for hostility and cruelty in everything. We were picking rosemary that day.
... That's not true.
Why would I think just calling me 'weed' is hostile and cruel? I don't take it as an insult.

[ He slinks back into the Clover barn and towards Sonata's room, knocking once on the door to announce himself before peering in. ]
...Sonata? Are you up?
...Sonata? Are you up?
( fortunately, she's already sitting up, blearily rubbing her eyes. looks like he caught her just in time, though there's no hiding how she (and her cat ears. and tail.) visibly perks up when he enters. )
... G'morning... is something wrong?
( a small yawn... )

[ He really doesn't want to explain... mostly because he feels kind of guilty about the entire thing, and especially about disturbing Sonata. ]
...a little bit, yeah.
Long story short, I need you to help us make... tea.

--Ah?
( ... not what she expected, but okay. she'll get out of bed properly, but isn't going to start changing just yet for. obvious reasons. )
I can do that. What tea do you need? I have permission to use roses and lilies now...

It's a very specific kind of tea... We have the flowers for it at Bluebell's barn, so you'll need to bring our tea set over there.
...I'll... try to explain more on the way. It's not a very pretty story, just to warn you.
[ Then he'll shut the door to give her privacy. ]

( oh that is immediately concerning and she hates it. but. okay! okay. okay. she's gonna get dressed, but first- )
The set is in the cabinet under the right window downstairs, if you want to grab that while I get ready.

...I'll do that. Thanks.
[ HE FEELS SO BAD FOR DRAGGING HER INTO THIS....... but he'll go pack the tea set into a basket while she gets changed. ]

( after a few minutes, she comes down fully changed in outfit one, going to the door to get her shoes. )
Is that all we'll need?
( though, she does also grab the handkerchief she'd been drying the flowers on the past few days. )

It should be.
[ He picks up the basket and starts out the door, he definitely seems to be in some kind of hurry. ]
...
...we went into the mist again.
