With winter so fast approaching, Fleur’s last sanctuary of botanical brilliance was quickly becoming the lovely enchanted greenhouse. There were so many odd plants that called this place home, and what was one more, after all? She couldn’t help but feel at home here, amongst the enchanted roses, the pure white daisies, the tigerlillies…though she was disappointed they couldn’t talk. However, even if they couldn’t respond, it was nice to surround herself with the smell of petrichor and fresh growth.

It was so rare that anyone else came into the greenhouse extracurricularly—she gave a little start when the glass door swung open and another girl entered. Usually, this one-woman floral fashion police force was quick to jump on judging a stranger, but she was immediately endeared by the wreath of lovely blooms she wore on her head. She straitened her own flower crown and stood from her spot, a soft smile on her painted lips. “Oh, hello there, dear…I do hope I didn’t frighten you!”

[brave-new-cerdwin-deactivated20]

Oo, a person! Another person in the greenhouse! Cerdwin smiled at this thought – usually she was alone, which was pleasant, but having someone else who shared the love of gardening and plants seemed to be more pleasant. “Not at all! In fact, I’m glad to find someone here,” Cerdwin said, doing a little curtsy. There was never any harm in displaying a little bit of a politeness, of course, and this stranger could end up being someone important.

Her smiled widened as she straightened herself up again. “I’m Leda Cerdwin, by the way, and it is an absolutely pleasure to meet you,” she said, extending a hand to be pretty stranger. “Who do you happen to be?”

Fleur's demeure smille tugged a little bit wider when the stranger curtsied, and she returned with a dainty little dip of her own--thank goodness there were others out there who knew the importance of proper manners! And clearly, she had good taste, too, if her presence in the greenhouse and the flower crown she sported were any indication…not that Fleur would admit it until she got to know this pretty little blossom better. 

"Fleur Bud, dear, and the pleasure is all mine," she took Cerdwin's hand in hers, giving it a gentle squeeze in place of a shake--she found that practice far too aggressive. "It's not often we," here, she released Cerdwin's hand to gesture about to the plants around them. "Get visitors this late in the season! What brings you by, seedling?"

Hello there friends! Sorry I've been so inactive lately, but I didn't think I'd be missed if I popped out for a bit. So, do I owe anybody?

  "Dear, you could wear it wherever you liked," she stuck her tongue out at him for just a second before molding it as she was told and taking the little burning bundle from him. She gazed at him expectantly, waiting for his next instruction.

He nodded his head slowly watching her as she did so. “Annnd then just do what you did before, B.E.F.O.R.E.” He said his eyelids drooping only slightly.

[queenoftheflowerbed]

"Like…this…?" she let out a very small puff of the smoke, but it only curled up through the air around her head in no particular shape. "Hm…and you make it look so easy…!"

This is a really personal gift I made for my late great grandmother who passed away this Sunday. Her funeral was today and I wanted to send something with her.

The basket contains three things she loved to grow most: roses, strawberries, and guava. She kept a really beautiful rose garden when we lived in California. They all bloomed at once and the smell was heavenly. No one could grow bigger or more beautiful roses than her. Even when we moved to Florida she managed to get a rose garden up and going. Strawberries were her favorite fruit, even if she never got them to grow properly down here. She did have a couple of guava trees, though. Every year we’d get jars and jars of guava preserves or cascos de guayaba (generously served with a large slab of cream cheese, of course).

I never had a chance to show her what I was up to. By the time I had gotten into miniature making, she no longer knew who I was, nor really could focus on much of anything. Her days consisted of being moved from her bed, to a recliner, to her bed again. I like to think she would have been interested in all of this. I know she would have been supportive.

That’s why this one had to be perfect. I couldn’t give her anything less. I guess it was sort of an apology for not being there all that often and for skipping the one final chance I had to see her before she passed. It’s really hard knowing I could have been there but that I got a case of cold feet and just didn’t show up.

But I was there today to say goodbye, even if it was really hard. She raised me from when I was a baby up until her mind started to go about 4 years ago. I at least owed it to her to come see her off.

I am extremely appreciative and touched by the waves of support I have received from you all. It’s so easy to decide that you hate the world and can’t’ stand the people in it. Then you receive overwhelming amounts of love and decide it isn’t all so bad. Again, thank you for the well wishes and love. It’s very much appreciated. You’re all really great and special people. <3

Catty White Flowers || Bianca and Fleur

"Oh, my, darling, do I have tales for you,” she giggled back, arranging her little iced confection on its doily just so before taking a small nibble. “This place might not be home, but the gossip! The drama! Ooh, it’s delicious! And of course,” she lay one of her little hands on the ruff around her neck. “I’ve got dirt on just about everyone, if not to brag too much. You won’t believe what little royals will reveal to a sweet little wallflower,” she smirked a bit. “Have you met many of the other students? Or do you just go by reputation—oh my, this is splendid,” she stared in wonder at her dessert. “You’ve got to try some, er…” she trailed off a bit, blushing. “If that’d make a difference…!”

[queenofalabaster]

"You’re a wicked little flower." she teased when she listened to the fact that Fleur had dirt on everyone. "Well at least you’re not like that catty chatty gossip, Kitty." she said as she shook her head. "but it’s true you are perfect for such things, with that innocent face the most talented keeper of secrets would spill his or her heart out to you." she said before holding up her hand to decline the offer of the sweet. "No it’s fine, I’d rather you enjoy it." she said in a sincere tone. 

"Who have I met?" she said thoughtfully as she tapped her chin. "Well, I’ve spoken with the Snow Queen’s daughter, Crystalis, she’s a bit of a frosty tart but I like her, she’s got spunk. Then there’s that wretched Genevieve Midas." she said as she shook her head. "I’m not too fond of her, but she’s got power, the other girls fear her and that’s the kind of people I like to associate with." she added with a shrug. "Other than them, you and a few of our Wonderlanders I don’t try to get to know anyone. They’re beneath me really. Most princesses here are just a joke, it’s like they don’t even know how to be one." she said with a shake of her head. 

[queenoftheflowerbed]

"Oh, that's the Bianca I know and love!" she let out a twinkling little laugh, her head tilting back far enough to just barely shift her flower crown. "My my, not even foreign princesses are worth your attention, are they? Well you do deserve the best, dearest, and I don't think you should settle on friends even a little bit! You're going to be quite a respected queen someday!"

"Oh my, that reminds me…isn't it nice to be away from your mother now, at least? I know I don't miss mine…if I had to spend one more day cooped up in her garden, I would've pulled a Lizzie and lopped off my own head!" she let out a sharp sigh. "Withering old weed can't even pick out a proper tune anymore, she's too busy drinking lavender toddy and criticizing my taste in dates. She even called me a strumpet before I left! And I mean, what does it even matter? It's not like I'm going to have a child out of wedlock," the very thought made her laugh. "You think she'd remember that we're flowers! We reproduce asexually!" she shook her head. "At least here we can pretend we don't have meddlesome parents."

(psa toddy is a drink made with tea and alcohol, i thought it was fitting)

Why he was there, he didn’t know. This was a royal affair so why was it he was forced to come here with his mother and Lizzie? Grant that he liked the idea leaving the Card Kingdom, it was the first time he’d ever step foot of the grounds, but the suit he had been placed in was bothering him. It...
