afterliving | 004 - [audio / action ] Rock! Rock! Rock over Afterlife!

Guuuys! If you were crazy enough to not go outside already, then grab a scarf or something and come out here, it's amazing! Kind of weird considering we just had a beach and now it's all... arctic? Antarctic? Anyway! There's penguins! Come out and see, it's so great!

[ From the sound of it, he's already outside, broadcasting with his cellphone. And boy does he sound excited. ]

action;

[ Honestly, it's things like these that make Yamashita forget he's dead. The weirdness of the happenings alienates him each time, but only for a moment, and then he's just into it. It's a good thing sometimes to have a simple one-track-ish mind. He can just honestly enjoy himself now and forget sorrow for a good while.

Wrapped in a lot of clothes that look kind of out of place, Yamashita can be found outside close to a group of penguins, kind of attempting to get closer and pat them on the head. They mostly walk away from him though, presumably thinking 'what a weird enthusiastic kid'. ]

Thank goodness!

[ Yamashita takes off his gloves for the moment to rub warmth into his own cheeks again. ]

So where should we look... and for what exactly, even?

Food of some kind. I don't know what reindeer eat exactly, but fruits and lettuce maybe..?

Not sure if we're gonna find fruit here... but lettuce should be alright? Let's look out for anything green and large and leaf-y!

[ Look at how competent he is. ]

That's a good plan!

[ Yeah green and leafy in a green house, this is going to go well. ]

Oh! But don't touch the strawberries. I'm growing those, they're special ones.

Ichigo's strawberries, huh? [ He grins. ]

What makes them special though?

You wouldn't believe me if I told you. [ She already tried telling Leon and he thought she was crazy. ] But they're a special type grown in a special soil, so they have a slightly different taste. There are all different species of strawberries, most people don't realize it.

[ Yamashita has basically given up on being disbelieving of crazy things because they just keep happening - but even if he hadn't, he's naive and has literally no idea of botany, so he'd have went with it anyway. ]

Oh, I really didn't know that at all. I thought the biggest difference in strawberries was just if they were small or big or really sweet or still sour, huh..

No, there are a bunch of different kinds! These ones are fraises des bois grown in soil from a particular place. The different nutrients in the soil can change what the flavor is, so the soil can be important.

Whoa, that all sounds really complicated? Botany is a science I suppose... I never thought it'd be so... scientific though.

Well, I don't know much about the science part, I just know about ingredients!

Well, that means you understand the other stuff too.

So do you see anything matching, by the way?
