...wow.

[Rydia's standing at the edge of the central courtyard, staring in awe at the willow tree and white flowers. She wanders around the area, weaving her way around people and peering at absolutely everything while listening to the chirping of the birds above. A few airborne petals brush against her cheek, some landing in her hair. She barely pays attention to that, though, instead focusing on the fountain.]

'Dragobete'? What's that?

[She regards the liquid in the fountain thoughtfully before dipping in one of the goblets. There's a moment's hesitation, but she lifts it to her lips anyway. The taste is sweet, nothing odd about it. A few more sips are taken after a moment of noticing nothing odd, and then she sets the goblet down as something else gets her attention.

A soft smile forms as she spots the snowdrop plants, and she picks a few. One is tucked behind an ear, but she holds onto the others. Might as well share the beauty, right?]

[This guy is around, and while he might not know Rydia particularly well... he can answer the question given that he grew up in the region in which the holiday originates. As such-]

It's a holiday.

[Rydia straightens as she pulls her thoughts away from Kain and how she ought to tell him about this weirdness (and doubting that he'll be curious enough to visit town for it). She looks over and smiles upon having some of her curiosity satisfied. People really are friendly today...and some part of her can guess that it's not a coincidence, but she doesn't seem to care.]

So, everything here is related to that holiday, then? It's like Valentine's Day?

A little bit. [A pause... there's a lot of explain and despite being from Kosovo (Or rather, Yugoslavia... or Serbia. Thinking about the contested nature of where he grew up brings him back to the war that took his family, sigh) which is near Romania and them having the holiday where he grew up he doesn't consider himself any expert on Romanian culture; he doesn't trust himself to go into the mythology surrounding it; so let's hit up the practical value-] It's considered a day for lovers. It refers to when birds start to make nests with their mates.

[And Rydia hugs back immediately, landing a kiss on her forehead.]

Hello, sweetie! Having fun?
