Anthy is sitting at a small round table, with a cup of tea and a bowl of soup in front of her. She's knitting something small and green, slowly, and watching the rest of the bar.

"My father protects both Keystone City and Central City from various bad-guys." She shrugs. "He never believed I'd be a good hero."

"Kansas is very dull. Lots of cornfields and deranged minds."

"I'm sorry," Anthy says, automatically, and then:

"Deranged minds?"

Kansas sounds like Anthy's kind of place.

Iris shrugs again. "It's his way."

She nods. "At least in the area I live in. There's always some weirdo popping out of nowhere with a ridiculous problem who decides to cause pain and suffering for the rest of us. I keep waiting for someone to become a villain after losing his contact lense."

Which she might very well miss if she's stuck here for very long.

"Or a wooden leaf," Anthy says absently. "Sometimes little things are important to people. It's not the thing itself."

A wooden leaf? But the rest of what Anthy says makes a certain amount of sense.

So Iris nods slightly. "It's what the thing represents."
