[Morning: 851 Goldberg]

[In the early morning, Olivier sits on the porch waiting for the delivery from the milkman. Today, she will take responsibility for drinking the milk. Not that she really wants to, but if it kills her, then that's one less day in this truth-forsaken place.  And, if any of her houesmates challenge her, she will ask them if

[Also working in the flower shop.]

[Hi!]

[flowers_suck]

[OOC: First of all, she's going to ask some questions, just to make sure you're not a drone.]

Where are you from?

[motheringnation]

[Ukraine looks over from arranging some of the flowers. If anything, her accent gives her away as someone whose not from here.]

Oh hello. I'm from Ukraine you could say.

[flowers_suck]

[She nods, glad that she isn't working with a drone.]

How long have you been here, in Mayfield?

[motheringnation]

Oh...it will be two years this fall I believe.

[flowers_suck]

[She frowns, shuddering at the idea of being stuck in Mayfield for two years. She's really hating these strange mood swings, because now she is depressed, and depression is not her thing.]

So you've had to put up with a lot...[She trails off, trying to remember where her conversation was supposed to be going. Have you ever tried to fight them, before?

[motheringnation]

[She just laughs a bit.]

Of course. We've tried many things.

Nothing's worked yet.

[flowers_suck]

Something will work, eventually. [She's trying to convince herself of this, too.]

This flower shop will be the start.

[motheringnation]

The start of what?

[flowers_suck]

Where better to send messages from than a flower shop?

[motheringnation]

Ah...I suppose so.

Have you talked to the other people who work here about that?

[flowers_suck]

She sighs and looks around, returning to her violent pruning.

Not yet, but I will be talking to everyone.

[motheringnation]

Okay. Well there's Sophie, Viktoria, April, Miakis and Ivy who work here as well.

[flowers_suck]

[She files away the names in her head, grateful that she didn't have to ask for a roster.]

Where do the flowers come from?

[motheringnation]

I'm not sure. They just ...well appear. Like everything else in this town.

excuse her if she doesn't know the usual holidays, they don't really have them in her canon.

[flowers_suck]

[She nods, of course they do.]

I think I expected as much. Does this place ever get busy?
