I've never really gotten to care for plants before. It would be nice to make sure this one survived.

[maybe somewhere in her subconscious it's related to the planet wanting her dead.

But maybe it's just the desire to keep one thing alive.]

[chromatized]

We'll take care of it, then.

[ this plant is not allowed to Die ever ]

Were you too busy with school for gardening before? Or was it other things?

[ he Means extra-curriculars ]

[rescuebullet]

I wasn't involved in any clubs. I was busy helping my mom with research.

[chromatized]

[ a researcher... and Nozomi helped? Ludger can't really imagine directly helping Julius with his R&D research. ]

What kind of research?

[rescuebullet]

It was the medical kind. She was really involved in it, so I didn't see her most of the time.

[chromatized]

[ ... hm ]

So you two were doing research together... separately?

[rescuebullet]

Not exactly.

When I was really little I really couldn't do much to help. So I barely got to see her. When I got older, I convinced my mom I could.

[chromatized]

... Congratulations? It must be nice seeing your mom more.

[ surely! ]

[rescuebullet]

Thank you. It was really nice.

[chromatized]

"Was"...?

[ please let the answer be normal and not something like "yeah after our reunion she got blown up in a train crash." ]

[rescuebullet]

...

[Looks away.]

My mother died.

[chromatized]

[ welp. ]

I'm sorry for your loss. It... sounds like it was recent...?

[rescuebullet]

[She nods.]

Thank you. I'm... dealing with it, it's okay.

[It's not, but the past is unchanging. There's nothing she can do about it.]
