Outside of the village in a little cottage of sorts, a young girl sat on the couch, scribbling numbers on parchment with bowls of different plant pieces scattered elsewhere on the table. In the mess of bowls there were some empty ones, each filled with a small bit of water and a small spoon of sorts. The girl seemed to ignore the mess, though the boy that walked in while she worked seemed to think otherwise.

"Flutter, can't you do this in some other room?" The boy's brown hair covered his face slightly. The girl had begin mixing ingredients from different bowls into one of the water ones. "These things reek, you know."

"That's your opinion, big brother." Unlike the boy, the girl had blue hair reaching the floor. Her eyes were closed as she worked.

"Whatever... I'm going to the market." He walked to another table nearby, picking up a wallet seemingly home-made, in which held some money they had to spend. "We ran out of seeds for me to plant and I need to make sure there's enough sweets for you."

"Be careful, big brother. If there's a fight, don't go butting in. We'll be found out."

"I know." The boy grumbled and left. He soon made his way into the village, looking for the store he went to regularly. Despite all appearances, the boy wasn't normal, but no one seemed to notice or care. His fangs gave it away to some, however. He was vampire- or half, at least. And his thirst for blood, though dormant, was eminent that morning, much to his own displeasure.

Walking up to someone nearby, he realized he'd forgotten to check on the season. Seasons changed without him noticing, so he often forgot what plants to buy. "Excuse me. Do you happen to know what the climate is lately? I can't figure out what food is in season this time of year..."
