[ The screen flips on to excited 11yo ]
Miss Aqua, Miss Aqua, look! Rin worked out how to make a, a, phone call? Can you see Rin? Hello everyone! This is Rin's first time! Rin would normally offer to make flower chains, but there's not a lot of flowers here, huh...

I see. What Lord Sesshoumaru is like? [He's simply curious.]
I don't see why not. [With amusement.] We can be that while you're in this world. When you're in trouble, I come help you, and when I'm in trouble you come help me. That's what friends do.
[Rin is a child like some of the others and Mu keeps track of them. At least Rin knows she has a friend she can count on in this world too.]
That's right. Now there are trees. That one is oak and the other is a maple. This place sure keeps these plants in categories.
[Just taking pictures with his tablet at a leisurely pace.]
no subject
[ She chatters, happy to expound at length about her adored person ]
Really? [ She looks up at him and smiles, skipping a bit closer to hug him ]
Thank you! People here are all really nice to Rin.
[ And skipping away to investigate the trees ] Rin hasn't seen an oak tree before.
no subject
Yes, of course. Back home in my homeworld, there's a lot of orphans at the Sanctuary and we look out for each other like a family. It's a temple watched over by Athena, the war goddess. So I'm glad to be of help.
[Mu simply listens.]
He's a swordsman? He sound like a very strong and formidable warrior. What's a youkai?
[That was a surprise hug! But Mu didn't mind it. Knowing a hug is connected to the gods of this world.]
Yes, it's a really tall tree. I'm surprised the robots grow that here.
no subject
[ She asks curiously ]
He is! Lord Sesshoumaru is the bestest! And a youkai is... is like... a ... a spirit. Or a demon. But not like a ghost!
[ She points at the tree ] When he turns into his true form he's huuuuuuuuuuge. Bigger than the tree!
no subject
There was a war back home. I fought in it and it ended.
[Mu tries to imagine it as he observes the tree.]
A demon...
[Since he sounds so real to her, he doesn't question it.]
He must be very strong. I would like to meet him. He's not here with you in this world, is he?
no subject
[ She comes back to hug him in sympathy ]
He's not. [ She shakes her head sadly ] But Lord Sesshoumaru left Rin with Lady Kaede even before Rin came here. He wants Rin to learn to be a proper human, he said.
no subject
It is, but it's for the price of peace.
[Mu reads the plaque that explains the species of the tree.]
To be a proper human, you say? Did you learn anything new about it?
[He reaches out for Rin's hand to hold it.]
I think the flowers are further down the lane if you want to take pictures of them.
no subject
[ She says seriously ]
Hm. Rin is learning about herbs! Lady Kaede is getting old, after all, and Lady Kagome is still only training. It's good to have someone else around to help.
[ She takes his hand and swings it happily ]
Un! Rin would like that.
no subject
The peace is hard won. I hope no one has to fight again. I sure do hope there is real world peace back home. [For now, he has no real way of knowing since he is being here.]
Really, are you learning those? Your knowledge can be valuable if you remember her teachings. I'm learning about herbs too. Whenever you have time or later on, if you remember, we have to share notes.
For now, I can make herbs and boil them to make tea, and make a few medicine out of them, but they're only home remedies.
[Taking the lead, he leads her to the exhibit where the flowers are. They resemble flowers from Earth, almost recognizable and yet they are strange as some of them are not the right color or even the right scent. Still, they are listed by species and type.]
no subject
[ She nods excitedly ]
Rin can do that! We can practice together! [ She ooooohs at the flowers ]
These are odd - not quite right.
no subject
Well, it seems they're not the right colors.
[For example the roses smell faintly of potpourri and honey.]
This reminds me of the replicators that can't make the food right either.
[Mu takes a picture with his tablet.]
Let's take a look for flowers to take pictures of.
no subject
[ Rin sniffs at one and makes a face ]
Flowers aren't supposed to smell like tea!
no subject
[Mu takes more pictures with his tablet.]
Let's have a rest and sit by the bench over there.
[Goes to sit at one of the benches.]
no subject
[ She nods thoughtfully and leans against his side when they sit down ]
Rin supposes that makes sense. Did they make these flowers then?
no subject
Do you mean the robots? I'm not sure. But you remind me that I should ask them for more information on the matter. For now, I just think they grow differently because we're in a different world.
[After a while, turning to her.]
Rin, are you tired? I could take you and walk you home.
no subject
Rin's not sure... they might not like being asked....
[ She leans against him and hums softly, blinking up at him curiously ]
A bit. Mr Mu wouldn't mind?
no subject
[with a nod.]
I don't mind. Would you like to go now?
no subject
If Mr Mu doesn't mind?
no subject
I don't mind at all.
[At that, he rose.]
Show me the way Rin and I'll walk you home.
no subject
This way! Thank you for spending time with Rin, Mr Mu.
no subject
It's no problem. You're welcome.
no subject
You're really nice Mr Mu.
