something of an offer

If there's anyone having trouble sleeping due to nightmares, or anything else, feel free to swing by The Wild Harvest.

We've got a lemonade-like drink that will guarantee a peaceful night's sleep; can also make it a tea if you're more the type for that.

For those who might prefer a dreamless night sleep, I've got a strong homemade honey moonshine on offer as well. I'm willing to part with a few jars of it.

That's all.

That would be helpful. Is there anything in particular that you need that I can trade you for? Either of them, really.

That does sound very useful. I've always turned to tea to treat all kinds of symptoms, but even those that have helped me to relax or sleep in the past aren't quite like these, from the sounds of it.

Do you have anything that can guarantee good dreams?

[steadypulse]

Wild Harvest house rules will be applied- just spread word about the stuff and the place itself, if whichever chosen ends up helping you out.

If that doesn't feel like enough? Help cleaning up, or running orders, will work just as well.

[steadypulse]

It's due to a special flower I and someone else discovered together here. A few folks, along with myself, were cultivating some closer to town in a garden spot tailored to cater to the flowers' special needs. Found out the flower comes in pretty handy when dealing with nightmare energy.

The lemonade or tea can do that.

That's amazing -- and really kind of you to sell them, too! Were you able to use your own abilities from home to make them....?

[steadypulse]

Easy to afford, too- just let other folks know about The Wild Harvest if it works for you- or help clean up for a little while. The lemonade-like drink and tea are made using the petals of a flower that was discovered in this world, actually.

Just know how to use them to be easy to consume and get their affects safely.

Might stop by and grab some if that's okay. How'd you make the drinks, if you don't mind me asking?

[For... reasons.]

There is another method to rid people of these dreams or nightmares.

Sender: Futaba Sakura

[mwehehe]

Can I try the moonshine?

[Futaba no.]

[steadypulse]

Always okay. I can show you how when you stop by and send you on with some supplies to make more, too.

I know I've taken some back to the treehouse for myself lately.

[crouching_sin]

Fair enough. I don't mind helping to clean up. I've done plenty of it in both my own home and my aunt's.

Comes with having a younger cousin.

[steadypulse]

Probably. This is the one I know works, and we keep it on menu for that reason- even if temporary because of the origin of one of the inredients used.

[steadypulse]

[F U T A B A]

I'll let you have half a shot glass, but after you're drinking some of the lemonade- can make the lemonade+juice carbonated if you want.

[7 6 W H Y.]

People come in and out for food and drinks often enough, so the extra hand here and there to help keep the place clean does a lot.

I'm used to it from growing up on the family farm, and reason I don't mind the extra hand in turn.

[crouching_sin]

Oh, you lived on a farm? I used to be good with plants - now I'm something of a black thumb.

If cleaning up is all it takes for a good meal it's really not a bad deal at all.

[steadypulse]

I did. Usual chores when not in school with some time off to still hang out with friends. Up until I went through the military.

Reason we've kept it as part of 'payment' at The Wild Harvest, for those that don't feel like spreading word about the food and where it's located is enough. Been going a good few years now. Cook homemade food from various parts of Earth, or whatever recipes folks here care to share with us.

[mwehehe]

[...she wasn't expecting a "yeah sure" but]

Woah. Really? Didn't expect you to say yes. I mean... maybe I'll try it? Is there, uh, like how it is in the states for drinking and underages here, even?

[steadypulse]

Considering some of the stuff you've been through here alone? A sip of it to try won't hurt you if you want. In the states you've gotta be 21, but I know in other places it's a lot younger.

Here? No rules as far as I've seen other than people going by what they're used to.

[Didn't hurt that he severely weakened what he gave other people so it was safe--]

Otherwise the lemonade-like drink or tea is still on offer.

[inheritedearth]

Oh! A flower!

[This is her area of expertise!]

If you need any help when it comes to gardening, I'm kind of an expert, especially when it comes to the really finicky ones. Sometimes they just need a little extra love and coaxing.

[steadypulse]

You're welcome to come by- we keep a few in a more private area to grow connected to the Wild Harvest. Can tell you details easier in person, too.

Been doing what we can with them otherwise- I only have what my Ma taught me about keeping up a flower garden, and growing up helping out on the family farm.

[inheritedearth]

I'd love that! I've been by a few times to eat, but I've been pretty busy helping Tifa out at the Starflower, so it's been a bit!

Wow, a real, live farmer. We don't see many of those where I come from. Hard to grow stuff in Midgar, but I've always managed.

[steadypulse]

Good to hear she's got more help there- I drop by on occasion with Madeline- adopted the fairy kitten from there. She worked out the bar here at the Harvest before we did what we could to support her opening her own place.

Can be a lot of work, know farmers had a time after the Crisis back home. Even when the farmers came back here there was a lot of work to be done; they're good friends to have, too.

Still, more reason to let you have a look at what we've managed right?

[inheritedearth]

Aw, you guys helped her out? I hope you know you really made a dream come true with that one!

You're right, all of that makes what you've done over there even more impressive. I'd love to come see when I'm done with my shift! I'll never pass up the opportunity to visit a garden. How long will you be there today?

[steadypulse]

Part of our little family at the Harvest, after all. Even still consider her that. Really glad she managed to have it come true.

[And he was- reason he still kept that offer that he'd be there anytime she needed him, no matter the reason.]

I'll be here until a couple hours after closing- just making sure everything is cleaned up for the night. Got a few critters that live in the big garden after all, making sure they're all well fed and set, too.

Pray tell me more about these drinks.

[ For Estinien is not keen on trusting a stranger with something that may dull his senses... but if it promises relief from any nightmares... ]
