[EVENT TIEM!

So everyone who signed up for the event is currently in the plane. It's night, and some people are sleeping. Some people are still awake, though. The plane's due to arrive in Sydney in an hour, at 11:30 pm. But for now, everyone can just have fun on the plane. Just don't break anything.]

((Go ahead and have fun. The action will move

[is reading a book on floriography. no booze dammit]

[an_sensei]

[gd you and your flowers >(]

What kind of flower is that?

[missingflower]

[my flowers are awesome, thank you]

Ah, it's a book about the symbolic uses of flowers in Medieval times...

[an_sensei]

Oh? What sort of things does it cover?

[missingflower]

Ah, mainly art-some flowers were given moral meanings, and were used in paintings of the saints.

[an_sensei]

Hmm...It seems like they had much more meaning back then. Say, what does it say about tulips?

[missingflower]

It doesn't really say much about tulips in that time period, but it depends on both the flower language in question and the color of the tulip for the meaning...[oh god you got him started on flowers]

[an_sensei]

[he'll listen] Hmm...well, if you need a color, what about yellow tulips?

[missingflower]

Unrequited or hopeless love.

[an_sensei]

...

Oh.

[missingflower]

[tilts head birdlike at him]
...is something wrong?

[an_sensei]

Ah, no, it's just that those were always a flower we had growing at my house, but it has such a sad meaning.
