[ seeing as how she's never met this child before, there's a lot of confusion on kate's end.

she stares, not moving yet. is she a little girl trying to tell flowers? ]

[merriment]

[ It's cool, Kate! she is still all smiles as she straightens up and then offers her the color bouquet ]

[assombris]

[ she looks down the hall for a moment. ]

That's very kind of you. Did someone ask you to do this?

[merriment]

No, I chose to do it myself.

[ she looks a tad self-conscious for a moment ]

Do you not like them?

[assombris]

[ smiling gently. ]

They're very pretty. I like them.

[merriment]

Oh, thank goodness!

[ pretty flowers for her pretty husband! ]

I am certain there will be a bigger variety of flowers when summer arrives.

[assombris]

[ this girl is so cute ffff. ]

What's your name?

[merriment]

[ she looks a little confused for a moment, but she'll play along! at least for now. ]

I am Justinia of Castoria.

[assombris]

Have we met before, Justinia?

[merriment]

Of course. My visit would be inappropriate otherwise!

[ head tilt! but she glances up at her curiously ]

You.. do not remember me?

[assombris]

[ she's trying to recall ever meeting another little girl besides nanako but... :( ]

Sorry. I don't remember meeting you. When was it?

[merriment]

[ looking a tad taken aback, she looks down at her feet before lifting her gaze to her face again. ]

We first met when the arrangement was made by my father.

[assombris]

[ she blinks and shakes her head. ]

What arrangement?

[merriment]

[ she's so casual about this, and all smiles nonetheless ]

The arrangement of our engagement.

[assombris]

Engagement? [ wide-eyed staring is a go. ]

[assombris]

[ oh dear. ]

Justinia, I've never met you before.
