I. Peppered Love

[ It's been a little while since Unnamed encountered the great and mighty Lord of the Goose, but since then he's been making the odd trip to Asura's garden to poke around and say hi while giving Lord Swan A VERY HEALTHY BERTH. On this particular occasion he's been gifted a nice little bundle of devil peppers, which he takes with immense delight.

In his head, it works something like this:

Happy feelings = warmth and devil peppers = HOT AF, which = so much love.

So clearly the best way he can show his affection is by giving the people he cares about some aptly-named Devil Peppers.

If you're someone he's seen before, you can bet ur butt that he's going to call out and wave them down...right before he presents them with one of these bad boys ]

Ouuh, auh! Ih--ih!

[ Take it :D IT'S FOR YOU ]

II. Flashcard Signing

[ One thing that Unnamed has been working on since his arrival is how to communicate--because that's hard when you're both deaf and undead. He started first with pictures in the journals, then again with sign language. Experience, however, has armed with the knowledge that not everyone understands Sign, so he's decided that his next step has to be reading and writing all those weird scribbles everyone always fills up their books with.

It has not been easy. His dexterity and fine motor skills are lacking at best like ya do when you're not-quite-alive, but help has come to him in the form of The Best Mom Ever and his introduction to.....flashcards. Shigeru has helped him acquire a set marked with both sight words and signs to help him recognize what each word means, and he has been studying them furiously. He's even gone and dreamotion'd a couple of his own into existence with Shigeru's help, so on this fine day Unnamed can be found:

a) pouring over his flashcards as he spreads them out over ground and table alike;

or

b) rushing up to your character with a flashcard with the word 'HELLO' written on it and holding it out with The Most Enthusiasm Ever. ]

Auh!

[ He looks so proud okay, you don't even know ]

[ ooc; just a small reminder that Unnamed here is both undead and deaf but he is doing his best!! and he's got swanky new flashcards to prove it. So if your character is interested in a mini-sign language lesson, this is a good place for it :D ]

[ FOR NOW. Mom is still concerned but he realizes that it's offputting for the other so he doesn't press it...too much.

'You don't? Hm, well, stoves and overs nowadays don't use actual fire you know? But I can definitely cook you some if you'd like? Put some seasoning on it and it's absolutely delicious.' ]

[zomboii]

[ New words! Or, well. Shigeru has probably tried to explain ovens and stoves to him before, but it's still hard to wrap his head around without seeing one in action. So he just repeats the signs for those objects to himself.

"Yes please! I want fish from Yellow Glasses!"

COOK FOR HIM MOM he's all excited now ]

[mysophobic]

[ Shigeru's smile is absolutely beaming as he gives a thumbs up and a nod.

'I can do that, definitely! Are you hungry now? We can stop by the market and pick up some fresh fish and I can cook it any my place!' ]

[zomboii]

[ "Yes please! We go together?"

Let's make this a family trip--and not just because he l o v e s to look at all the raw meat and fish and stuff through the store windows. Though that is a major bonus. ]

[mysophobic]

[ Shigeru nods before he turns and motions for Unnamed to follow him. Of course, this is after they pick up his index cards and put them away in a safe place for now.

'I can teach you how to say different foods while we're there too.' So it'll be a learning experience for the other as well. ]
