5th Bloom; [video]

[journalname]

[Asgore's in some different surroundings today, surrounded by flowers.]

Howdy, everybody! This is just to announce that the Goldenrod Flower Shop is having a Valentine's Day sale! Our red roses are thirty percent off, and everything else is twenty percent off. [He smiles, adjusting a bouquet of pink lilies.] I'm happy to help come up with a good flower arrangement if anyone would like - there are many great gifts to give besides roses.

We can also do deliveries, within a reasonable distance. The flowers don't take well to much travel.

Excuse me, sir? Do you have rose seeds in stock as well?

[Though she didn't know where she might be able to grow them, Anthy couldn't help but ask. She's in her pink dress-suit and white beret, perched on the fence near the gate to Route 35, and the Aipom seated comfortably on her shoulder held the 'gear out in front of both of them with his tail. Both are smiling rather kindly, and...genuinely?]

I know it's not the season to plant them, but I would like to hold onto them until it's right.

[journalname]

Oh! Yes, we do -

[He seems a little hesitant at first, but smiles when she acknowledges it isn't the right season for planting. That's good, then, he won't have to explain.]

Only a few varieties, I'm afraid, since it is winter. Are you looking for something in particular?

[rosehecate]

[Explain gardening to her? Now that'd be funny. She would've humored him, though.]

I was hoping for rose seeds. Particularly white ones.

[Frisk can barely contain their giggles, covering their giddy smile with one hand.]

Heyyy! How much is it for that flower there? It's the prettiest ever!

[journalname]

[Asgore grins back. His teeth are still rather boss-monster-like, and frankly it would probably be a terrifying sight if he weren't surrounded by flowers and also wearing an apron.]

This one? [He plucks one of the pink lilies from the vase. Good job, we weren't coincidentally near yellow ones this time.] Or was it this one?

[gainedlove]

Noooo, no, no, that one! In th' center of th' screen!

[Their attempt at a straight face finally falls apart, and they laugh and beam brightly.]

Oh wait, that one's you!

[chainbroke]

Oh... they're all so pretty. Are there flowers for friendship?

[journalname]

There are! Yellow roses are common, but you could also give carnations or daisies.

[chainbroke]

I see. Could you give all three?

[bertall]

Sorry, um... What's 'Valentine's Day?'

[journalname]

Oh, I'm sorry! It's a holiday the humans here celebrate, on February 14th. It's meant to be, ah, a celebration of romance.

[bertall]

_[Ah...]

What happens during it? I've never heard of anything like that.

[placide]

Oh, they're just so lovely! [ She's a bit of a sucker for flowers, if the Flabébé in her hair is any indicator.

It's ok, because said Flabébé is also a fan of flowers. While she's quite happy with her current one, there's no harm in looking at others. ]

Do you grow them yourself?

[journalname]

[Asgore beams, at both the compliment and the Flabebe. Asriel has one of those!]

Some of them! I have only been working here for a few months. A lot of what I do right now is arrangement and sales. [the giant man lurks in the flower shop, appearing to dispense random gardening advice.]

[placide]

[ Oh, and here she thought it was his own business. It seemed as if everyone owned a shop here or there, or were offering services. ]

Working hard, it seems. You have done great work.

A shame they wouldn't survive the trip to Celadon. [ The most she can do is look on from afar. ] Though I do have companions who are near Goldenrod... perhaps they would enjoy an arrangement or two?

[veggie_vamp]

Awwww, that's so sweet!

... Do you have any birthday discounts, by the way?

[journalname]

I don't see why not!

[they absolutely fucking do not he's just like this]

[pipers_son]

Ha.... The streets are just gonna be covered in roses, huh? I don't envy the folks who are allergic!

Although, y'know, this reminds me of another holiday I heard about once upon a time... Ya ever hear a White Day?

[journalname]

.....oh, I think I have! Isn't that from the anime?

[you caused this]

[sunshineprincess]

[So pretty!]

Do you have sunflowers?

[Anna would love to give some sunflowers to her sister.] Or any kind of flower that is... wintery?

[journalname]

[lol lu doesn't know about flower seasons so why not]

We do! And there are several types of flowers that bloom in winter - like hellebores and daphne. [He moves across the store to indicate this and this.]

[laughingstawke]

Hey, uh. [Hawke cleared her throat, looking more than a little sheepish.] What kind of flowers do you get the man you just married. Don't give me any of that "men give the flowers" crap either.

I... We don't celebrate this kind of stuff back home and usually he's the one doing all the affectionate stuff. I want to do something nice for a change.

So.. how do I say "I'll love you forever even if we've messed up a lot?"

[journalname]

Why would giving flowers be only for men?

[Oh, whatever.] Red roses are the most traditional, but I think it can be nice to have variety. Do you know what kind of flowers he likes? Or maybe his favorite color?

[fuelthefire]

[He has a vague recollection that flowers are appropriate gifts for the important people in one's life, so this post is fortuitous. What good timing!]

What've you got in pink?

[He doesn't remember why, but he knows that "red" is no good for what he wants.]

[journalname]

Quite a few things! Roses, lilies, carnations...

[do you want the whole list dude]
