So, uh, hey everyone. Julie here. [Wave!]

It looks like, um... Serah's gone, if you knew her, so that's something. But-- [She takes a breath, seemingly steeling herself against the news she just gave out. Serah was - is - her friend, and she'll miss her.]

But before she went, we were talking to Tranquility about planting some trees outside his temple. Looks like that's not the only place that could use it though, right? [The smile that comes to her face is small and crooked, a little awkward. She hadn't been to the other islands in a while, but when she did... People have been busy.]

I did some farming back home, but I don't think I can plant a whole forest by myself. Soooo... anyone want to start a project? Bet there's people here who can make seeds sprout by magic, right?

I guess just when we can? I mean, I'm not planning to turn this into some kind of military operation.

[Jo laughs quietly.]

Yeah, some people wouldn't like that.

[redwinekindofgirl]

I wouldn't like it, either.

[Shrug. She'd had enough military shit from her father, thanks very much.]

Besides, I figure something like this should be fun.

[knifecollecting]

Digging holes isn't always fun, Julie.

[redwinekindofgirl]

[She snorts out a laugh.]

Duh. But it's way less fun if it's regimented like some kind of training exercise.

[knifecollecting]

[Jo laughs too.]

Training for what? That can't be a real training exercise.

[redwinekindofgirl]

My dad could turn anything into a training exercise. [Julie tells her with a shrug and a small, slightly sad smile.]

He was a solider. It was kind of his thing.

[knifecollecting]

[It reminds her a little of Uncle John, but she doesn't say that instead just nodding.]

Here it'll go better if we make it fun.
