[Honestly, as much as she'd enjoy teasing this stranger about his awkwardness regarding the love hotel they currently find themselves in, talking about the gardening club is not only neutral ground, but something she does genuinely like.
It's one of the things she misses from Cherryton. While her botany classes and the university greenhouses and labs are certainly fun, the freeing solitude of just her and the garden just cannot be replicated.
The blanket she's wrapped herself under slips a bit-- though she's wearing the clothes she entered the room with, and she shifts her position a bit to sit cross-legged on the bed.]
Oh you know, flowers and vegetables...it all depended on the season, really, and what seeds the school was willing to provide me. [Resting her elbows on her knees, she rests her cheek against a hand.] I was the only one running the club...wonder if anyone's taken over since I graduated.
[A pause.]
Why are you interested? Do you like gardening, or are you just trying to ignore where we are?
