[So except for the part where he didn't know his name and he'd spent a good part of the first week freaking out over whether

[This place is going to take some time to get used to. On one hand, the guide was useful. On the other hand, what. Still, it looks like he's stuck here in the meantime.

Just walking down a street, when he notices the flowers and pauses for a moment. o/ Ignore his outfit, he means no harm. C:]

[chibihyou]

[Ooh, someone stopping. A customer? Omi turns with a grin on his face]

Welco-- [...your outfit. Assassin senses pinged! Frightened, regular, 17 year old senses pinged! But he can't be rude to a customer! So, uh...] Welcome...! Is there anything you're looking for in particular?

[bound_life]

Ah, no...

[He just smiles softly.]

... They're pretty.

...if he's not carrying the sword just, uh, tell me and I'll change it XD

[chibihyou]

I see! They are, aren't they? [His eyes stray briefly to the sword at the other boy's waist - it was a Japanese-style sword like Aya-kun's wasn't it? Why was he carrying it around...? But, ah, no - there was no Weiss here and he couldn't jump to conclusions!]

Do you like flowers?

He's carrying it, along with his other weapon o/

[If Kohaku notices the glance, he doesn't show it. He's used to the occasional weird look.

He nods.]

Uh-huh.

...MORE WEIRD LOOKS THEN.

[chibihyou]

[Omi smiles. Even if at first, flowers weren't really his thing, being around them was a certain sort of comfort, a reminder of familiarity and laughter - strange things for a killer to want, but things he needed all the same. He bends down, trading the watering can for flowers he'll need for an order later today: a pot of white poppies - and he can't help but smile a little at the irony. Forgetfulness, huh?

But he straightens, and the cheerful smile is back on his face.] A lot of people like something happy, maybe something with bright colours?

WEIRD LOOKS FTW

[bound_life]

[A sheepish smile]

Well, I don't actually know that much about flowers, to be honest...

WELL. IT'S LIKE THIS HUGE AXE THING.

[chibihyou]

That's okay, most people don't! But looking at them still makes people relaxed, and they smell nice too.

[Just give him a moment as he puts the poppies on the counter inside. He'll be coming right back out.]

Hmm... [Considering things. Now which one...Ah, there we go! Running over and fetching the iris before running back.] How about these?

IT'S A /CHAIN-SICKLE/ THANK YOU VERY MUCH

[bound_life]

[The irises look a little like lilies, which pings Kohaku in a nostalgic kind of way.]

They're really nice.

IT'S STILL A MURDER WEAPON >[

[chibihyou]

[Smileeee~!] Mm! Eventual happiness. [It'd be nice if it'd work, if he gave irises to everyone in Weiss...] Ah, that's what irises mean.

SHHHHHHH :|

[bound_life]

Really? I didn't know that.

=DDDDDDDDDDD

[chibihyou]

[A laugh.] It's only because I've been working in a flower shop for a long time. Youji-kun and Aya-kun both know a lot more flower meanings than I do, though!

B||||||

[bound_life]

Your friends?

[chibihyou]

[A nod.] We work at the same flower shop together, back home. [AMONG OTHER THINGS. But. Flower shop, Omi, just a flower shop.]

[bound_life]

... That must be nice, to be able to work with your friends.

[Kohaku has no friends, sob.]

[chibihyou]

Mmhmm! [And, for a moment, a tiny bit of sadness in that smile of his.] I wish we could do that forever. [Except Aya-kun and Yohji-kun won't stop reminding them that it's impossible.]

Ah, what about you? Sorry, I've just been going on about my friends. I guess I'm a little homesick... [^^;;]
