Wiping the sweat from her brow, Matilda pauses in her work. The snow gently falling outside provided a stark contrast to the warm, humid air inside the enormous greenhouse. People wandered through the many aisles of plants, talking about what they wanted to buy or what they would like to gift who in the coming months. Kids giggled and ran between plants, some of them still wearing their thick coats and gloves but most had shed their winter layers in exchange for the comfortable warmth of the building. Matilda had done the same herself, her coat and scarf stuffed into a tote she'd slung cross-body to disperse the weight and not have to worry about it falling off as she knelt and crawled and dug through branches to get the best, most ripe berries. She personally had no experience in the field of properly fruited trees, but Alzirr was happily floating here and there, showing Matilda what was ready.[break][break]

Mattie didn't know anything about fruits but she'd taken this job because she needed the money. She'd had almost nothing when she'd arrived in Hoenn, and that number hadn't changed much in the past few weeks; at this rate, she'd never be able to afford a place of her own. Characteristically optimistic though, she'd seen an ad for pay-by-the-bucket berry picking, and she could at least kill an afternoon gathering a few buckets of berries for the $50 dollars promised in return.[break][break]

"Mil! Mil!" Alzirr said softly from a few plants away. Sure enough Alzirr had found several fruiting trees all near one another. Mattie smiled and picked up her bucket, heading over to the Milcery - but by the time she got there, a few berries were already gone. "Alzirr, we talked about this - no eating them! We need to sell them so we can buy - " [break][break]

Alzirr shook her head back and forth, pointing to the tree. Matilda's brow furrowed in confusion, but she leaned over and saw a small pair of shoes standing on the other side of the plant, a few drops of berry juice coloring them. Her expression softened. "Hey there," she said kindly, waiting for them to reveal themself.
