I think so.

[ Tilting the board slightly, Kubo edges closer to the cherry blossom tree. Petals float over them and Kubo's breath catches. ]

[Ochako gasps quietly behind him as they fly through it, reaching one hand up to brush through the falling petals, keeping the other hand on his shoulder for balance.]

It's soooo beautiful! We should pick flowers, for the ships!

[shamisens]

What would we do with them though?

[willynilly]

Have you never picked flowers before? You can put them in vases with water, for decoration! It brightens things up for a while.

[shamisens]

We didn't really have a lot of places to put flowers.

[ Or vases. Or . . . anything that constituted a normal home. ]

[willynilly]

Oh... well, now there's lots of space! The Starstruck has plenty of little corners tucked away for decorations, and I'd love some for my room...

[shamisens]

[ Kubo finds himself smiling softly. ]

Then we'll get some for your room if you want. I'm okay with that.

[willynilly]

[She beams brightly.]

Thank you, Kubo! We can put some in the kitchen, too- and if you want some for your room, I'm sure we could find a vase!

[shamisens]

We could probably buy one. Or buy some glasses to use as vases?

[ It would be nice to have more things in his room. ]

[willynilly]

That's an idea! Glasses would be way cheaper, though, we should do that. Or just pilfer a few from the kitchen. No need to waste money when we have stuff on hand, right?

[It's not like she's rich, either.]

[shamisens]

We should let the Captain know before we do that though.

But I think it'll be fine.

[willynilly]

Yeah, I think so, too. They can be strict sometimes, but everyone's really nice on our ship. Don't worry about it!

[If they have to buy vases, whatever, it's not the end of the world. This would just be easier.]

[shamisens]

[ Kubo pauses, wondering if he was worried about it. Maybe deep down, he still felt unsure of his place here. ]

I won't.
