Stone Circle A thank you

She smiled and shugged modestly to Howl's thank you. There was something about her silence that pleased him. Her responsed her more pure if felt like when they were expressed rather then spoken. When she turned around Howl was about to see more clearly what she had been doing with the plant. She was collecting the leave in a small pile before her. Taking a guess he threw out. "Are those for botany... a medicine?" he asking, thinking of the only two trades that he knew tha would directly involve plants. He left enough time inbetween questions for her to nod or shake her head. He didn't want to struggle between deciding if she was saying yes to the first question or the second.
