Her mother senses are tingling.
"Kujou-san, it's been a while. How have you been?" (@ask-shsl-scribe )
"Alestria, it's good to see you again. I've been well, how have you been fairing?"
@ask-shsl-scribe
He sighs softly.
"Indeed...he is far too kind to ever do anything that is outside the bounds of someone else's best interest..."
Him especially, he doesn't add. He was too much of a workaholic, too obsessive with getting the strength that he needed as a martial artist. So what if he passed out a few times? He needed those last hours of training...or so he would argue. It was pretty clear to anyone that knew his abilities that he could afford to take it easy...but the idea of getting rusty just for some rest was unacceptable to him.
"I care for myself well enough."
With the florist's help...he can cook for himself and knows his limits. It was the fact that he was constantly pushing them that caused issues.
"... I see." She agreed through a tight-lipped smile. How well is 'well enough'? To her that was eating the appropriate amount of meals everyday, getting a good rest every night and taking breaks when needed -- even though that last one was something she, herself, failed to comply with every now and then. How much did his definition of 'well enough' differ to hers, she wondered.
Mentally, she exhaled. Chikako-san was far better with this kind of stuff -- reaching out to others and the like -- than she was. She didn't want to pry but she also didn't want her friend to struggle.
"We-well..! Know that if you ever need anything. You can always rely on me to help..!"
"Kujou-san, it's been a while. How have you been?" (@ask-shsl-scribe )
"Alestria, it's good to see you again. I've been well, how have you been fairing?"
@ask-shsl-scribe
He blinked a bit in surprise. While that was perfectly logical, it was an answer that caught him off guard, and it made him worry a little over her.
"I see. I am glad that you have recovered...though, would you wish to take some tea with you for if you get sick again? It can't treat your condition, but it could help with the symptoms."
"Oh, no you don't have to do that.! My society has well educated physicians and facilitators that take care of us. No-Not that I'm saying that you're not well educated or anything.!"
She quickly waved her hand, trying to makeup for what she said to avoid being misinterpreted. Though she was still very particular about her diet, as per the rules, there were a select two she was okay accepting food from. The first was Chikako-san, of course, and the other was Botan. "I just don't want to trouble you with my health. I'm fine. Though I appreciate the offer."
He chuckled a little at the worry in the other's voice. It was charming how polite she was, but he understood and simply waved it off.
"Do not worry, I understand what you mean, and I understand...though, it is not a trouble. You are a friend. It is only natural to take an interest in your health."
It was why he didn't mind whenever Masao scolded him over not taking care of himself or for working too long. He knew the florist only did it out of a place of care...though, he wasn't sure yet how similar himself and Alestria were in that regard.
"Ri-Right.." With a deep breath and a sip of her tea, she took a moment to calm down. He had a point and, really, there was nothing wrong with caring for a friend. And she cared about her friends plenty. Not as to say she didn't expect the same, but well, maybe she shouldn't be thinking too much into it.
"But, that aside, how have you been over the time? Oh, and your friend, Masao was it? I hope the two of you have been well."
He sips his own tea as well. There was a small fear that he came off a little blunt, but that was just how he was. It couldn't be helped when it was just his nature.
"Hm? Yes, thank you for asking. Other than occasionally scolding me, he and I are the same as we have both been well."
It happened more times than the samurai was willing to admit, and despite the florist being a pacifist and being more skilled at fighting than Masao, he had to admit that he was always a little afraid of him..or rather, disappointing him.
"Scolding you for the right reasons, I hope."
She grinned. It was nice to hear that the two had been doing well. She hadn't had a chance to talk to Mr. Kurosaki outside of their initial meeting but had wished the best for him as she did with Botan.
He glances away as he just nods.
"...I do not believe any would disagree with his reasoning."
Well, he might...but with Masao's reasoning, he's pretty sure that any protests he has for this holds no water, much to his chagrin...which made him a little weary of the other speaking with the florist.
"If it's for the sake of your well-being, then I would it hard to disagree. And, considering that he is your best friend, I can assume that he has your best interest in mind."
Her fingers prattled at the side of her cup, looking back at the reflection that the cast into the tea. His avoidance with worrying, slightly. To her, the thought that someone would avoid doing something that would improve their health was a silly one, especially if the choice was readily available. But things.. aren't as cut and dry 'out' on Earth as it is in her dome; that was something she was steadily starting to realize overtime.
"... I hope you're taking care of yourself, Kujou-kun."
"Kujou-san, it's been a while. How have you been?" (@ask-shsl-scribe )
"Alestria, it's good to see you again. I've been well, how have you been fairing?"

"I've been doing pretty well, myself.! I hope this isn't too sudden. It has been a while, so I was wondering if you'd like to catch up if you're not busy."
"I am glad to hear that. I have some time, so it would be nice to have a chat." He says with a small smile. "Would you like some tea?"
She nodded with a smile. "I'd love some, thank you."
He smiles as he goes to prepare tea for the two of them. After a moment, he comes back with the tea that he pours for the two of them.
She thanks him for the tea before taking a sip of it. "I apologize that it took me so long to reach out to you like this. There was always something that kept me from doing so."
"You have no reason to apologize." He says before taking a sip. "You are a busy person with many responsibilities. It is understandable that it's been awhile since we talked."
She nodded. Though there wasn't much of a worry that he wouldn't be understanding of it all, hearing it from him put her at ease. Alestria took a sip of her tea.
"Thank you. For understanding and for the tea. It's really good."
"You are welcome for both."
He sipped his own. Admittedly, he did miss her at times when he got the chance to rest enough to be able to think...not that he would admit that aloud.
"Now, what have you been doing since we last spoke?"
"...." She cleared her throat.
"Sick, for the most part. The drastic difference in climate in my home versus on Earth, as well as the usual stresses from my duties, has left me ill for a while. I'm fine now, though."

Did you get sick?
"Tr14, you know you're supposed to be resting."
Her facilitator, Dr. Iori, entered the room with a huff. Right when she was finally resting, another fit of "I have so things to do" crosses her mind like an animal with zoomies. It was "adorable" if you didn't count the fact that her constant list of things to do was the reason why she had gotten sick in the first place.
"I was, though! I would never go against your orders, Dr. Iori!"
That, too, made him sigh. And why does she always insist on calling them "orders"..?
What have you been up to Alestria?
"Huh?"
Alestria rose from her bed, the wet towel that had been drapped over her forehead falling into her lap with a resounding 'shplat!' She looked down at the mess it made of her covers and childishly whined in defeat. The noise seemed to have alerted whoever else was in her shared home because, not even a moment after, was there a soft knock at the door.
"Tr14? Are you alright?"
She looked off toward the door before nodding. "I'm okay, Dr.Iori! The towel fell off, though.."
What will you teach Ichi Peachy?
"Just the fundamentals. Areas to strike for and how to pull herself out of any sticky situations. Being able to separate yourself from your attacker is an important aspect of self-defense. Give yourself distance to work with so they have more room for errors. Oh, and I want to make sure she's able to put force into punches and kicks. If not, then that's something I want to work on first."
"On the note of self defense, do remember that, if you're being attacked, don't call for "help!" People are less likely to respond to that. Instead call out "Fire!" or "They have a gun!" That is absolutely going to catch attention more quickly. Especially that second one!"

"And what kind of style would that be? If you don't mind sharing with the class. I haven't been in America in a good minute, so I'm a bit curious to know what all they've been teaching out there."
Not 'flexible enough' for any of the acrobatic arts but just enough to keep himself safe. From the vague descriptions he gave himself, she wanted to gauge something simple like boxing or maybe even MMA (she remembered those being pretty popular in America).
Chikako chuckled as she watched Lily set off on her little mission. She would have preferred that she was within sight -- to keep a watchful eye on her -- but what can you do, she was already long gone. Knowing Lily, she should be able to find her way back. And, if not, Ichi was tracking her phone.
"You're alright! I didn't think she'd like just sitting around here or playing by herself on the swings. Kiyo-Hime's the same way. She just chooses to directly bother people when she gets bored. Plus, I wasn't lying about needing the photos. Uzehara-chan loves nature pictures."
She held out a hand to Ichi. No explanation, no instruction, just seeing what she'd do with the simple gesture.
