[ Hello everyone, it's Riou sitting at a table surrounded by plants in his greenhouse that he worked on last month. It's relatively together, there's a wood table and bench with what looks like a hand-crafted outdoor bar behind it, as well as a lot of plants and a dirt and stone path leading into the plants. There are red cups at the edge of the table and a gun in front of him. ]

I was told this is a popular thing for people to do.

[ And so, Riou embarks on performing his own rendition of Cups.

Watch on YouTube

(If you don't want to or cannot watch the video, it's Cups except he assembles and disassembles a gun and shoots the cups. Please pretend the video is an actual video of him and not his face pasted on someone for the sake of this post ty.)

When he finishes, he sets the gun down with the safety off. ]

My greenhouse will open to the public between the hours of 8am and 5pm. Please practice gun safety while visiting. If you would like to stay after hours, contact me.

[ That's his advertisement. With Samatoki gone, mowing lawns just doesn't have the appeal anymore so please visit his greenhouse. ]

Oh, that sure is a throwback... I haven't seen someone do Cups in quite some time.

Although most people don't usually do it with a gun.

[grylls]

I did.
It seemed like more of a challenge.

[ Didn't know Riou could do this??? ]

Teach me how.

[grylls]

[ does this mean jyuto is finally going to let him teach him rhythm-- ]

👍 When do you have time?

[ hello from the unemployed life ]

[inthebuilding]

I don't know. Just whenever, I guess? I could come by after work some days. It looks fun, so I want to try.
Did nobody get onto you about the gun shots?

[grylls]

It's my property. People carry and use weapons here all the time.

[ It's actually pretty alarming, but it means Riou doesn't get in trouble since everyone's always carrying weapons around like they're in the middle of a warzone instead of a smut planet but that's anime and game characters for you. ]

The angle I used sent the bullets into the dirt.

[ He attaches a picture of the neatly formed bullet impacts on the ground. He'll clean it up in a minute. ]

[inthebuilding]

Should I be worried about you?

[grylls]

Are you going to arrest me for firing a weapon?

[ If not, no. :) He'll be fine. ]

[inthebuilding]

I could, you know.

[grylls]

I know.

[ Probably for a lot of things. ]

[inthebuilding]

Don't get shot.

[ Um. This is... something. ]

...do you know very much about plants?

[grylls]

I won't. You don't need to worry.

[ At least he finally answered. ]

[grylls]

In Yokohama, I grew everything from coffee to vegetables. As a survivor, I made certain I was largely self-sufficient.

[ So he grew lots of things or gathered them from the forest.. ]

I didn't have a greenhouse, though. This will be my first time managing one.

[glossophobia]

Well you got a lot of open space to grow all that you want now, yeah? With that sort of experience. And I'm guessin' with your background, escaping the city life is a lot easier this way.

[grylls]

Mm. The wilderness isn't inhabitable here without short bursts, this is the best solution. I've been saving up for some time. If you like plants, you should stop by.

[ Unless Jyuto says otherwise but he doesn't really understand what's going on there. ]

[glossophobia]

[ Please explain to him Rosho's not even aware of Jyuto's megane vendetta. ]

I once read that plants are actually very good at relieving stress, so I kept at least one in my apartment back home and I currently have one in my place now. I imagine a greenhouse would be a very therapeutic experience... so, I'd like to visit every once in a while, if that would be okay?

[inthebuilding]

[ >8(!!!!!! he's trying to replace jyuto!! can't you see it, riou— he wants to bE the NEW JYUTO! ]

[inthebuilding]

I'll come see it this evening.
It'll have to be after hours though, since I'm not off duty until 21:00.
Is that too late?

[grylls]

I will wait for you.
When you come, we can program your retinal scan into the security system. The hours of operation only apply to visitors. You are welcome any time.

Confused. Is this place supposed to be a conservatory or a shooting range?

[saezuru]

Oh. I can bring my gun?

[ He's been needing to practice, actually? ]

Who just sits around shooting at cups?

[mildly impressed tho, but both shooting a guy and getting shot at himself before ending up here left him kinda weirded out by it all still]

[specialist_snowflake]

I'd be interested in seeing what you have in stock.

I won't be bringing a gun.
