4th Adventure

[forever_cheery]

Action A: Aurora Belle is all over town this afternoon and Thursday. I do mean everywhere. She's sitting in the park, sifting through colorful fallen leaves and choosing between them with a discerning look. She's at the toy store looking in a bin of multi-colored rubber balls, checking from a list in her hand. She's at the pharmacy, looking at

[Olivier rolls her eyes as Aurora enter the flower shop, and tries to ignore her.]

[WHAT DO AURORA?]

[forever_cheery]

[That's okay, she comes in and looks around, and she KNOWS there's a flower out there to match that "really pleasant light purple" she's looking for. But when she doesn't see it after a minute or two, she'll approach Olivier.]

Hi! Maybe you can help me.

[flowers_suck]

[Olivier scowls, but sets down the shears and steps around the counter.]

Did you have something certain in mind?

[forever_cheery]

I'm looking for a flower. A purple one. Sorta light purple. But I don't remember what it's called.

[flowers_suck]

[Olivier leads her over to a corner of the shop where flowers sit in buckets waiting to be put together into an arrangement.]

Did you mean lavenders?

[forever_cheery]

Oh, yes! That's it, lavender! Can I have one? How much are they?

[flowers_suck]

If you just want the one, I'll give it to you for free.

[Anything to get her out of the shop.]

[forever_cheery]

Wow, really? Yeah, I only needed one, I think...

[She looks over her list.] Unless you have any that are also "dark dark green" or "more pink than purple but kind of both".

[flowers_suck]

[Plans foiled. Olivier is trying very hard not to headdesk. She takes a deep breath.]

Yes, I doubt the sale of one flower will hardly be missed.

Well, we do have some dark green ribbon for tying bows around the flowers, but I've never taken much interest in pink flowers. You're free to look around, though.

[What could it hurt?]

[forever_cheery]

Okay, thanks! I appreciate it.

[Don't mind her as she pokes around all the different flowers, double checking her list as she goes through.]

[flowers_suck]

Don't mention it.

[She won't mind at all, as long as she doesn't have to listen to Aurora's happy.]

[forever_cheery]

[She sure does have to listen, as Aurora happily hums to herself as she looks around the store.]

That icon is adorable!

[flowers_suck]

[Olivier clenches her teeth at the humming as she goes about trimming stems for an arrangement. She makes sure to use extra force in cutting the stems so that the shears give off a nice loud snipping sound that goes against the beat of Aurora's humming.]

thanks :3

[forever_cheery]

[She's humming pretty tunelessly anyway, songs she unconsciously remembers bits and pieces of from when she was alive. Eventually she walks up to Olivier's counter with a light yellow rose.]

This isn't the green I need, but I don't think I have a yellow like this. How much for this one?

Had to ask my grandma what would be a believable cost back then

[flowers_suck]

A dollar.

[She's still not used to this currency.]

remind me and i can send you some very handy links when i'm at home!

[forever_cheery]

Okay! Hmmm... [She digs through her purse until she find a dollar.] Great! Here you go. Thanks so much for your help. This is perfect.
