Arthur "Calliandra" 🌹
Calliandra flower means Pretty Boy. So Arthur's name means "Beautiful King" (or "King of Pretty Boy"??) 👑
I was waiting for my Calliandra flower to fully bloom so I can take Arthur's pics with his respective flower. Welp, it did. But just one bloom 🥲
It's fine. I'll take the dub. One day when the bonsai sprouts more than 1 bloom, I'll take more pics with Arthur 🫶
Arthur and Thalie with their respective flowers🌼🌹

Thanks for tagging me @narrativefoiltrope ❤️
I'm going to cheat a bit because those are things that I wrote in my quick notes yesterday at 3 am after binge watching Interview with the Vampire
She was utterly, madly, desperately in love with Death.
And
It started, as most love stories do, with a knife against her neck.
This is about Calliandra and Astarion. 🧍

Calliandra tergemina / Pink Powderpuff at the Denver Botanic Gardens in Denver, CO
Tree Calliandra or Mimosa Grandiflora
The generic name is derived from the Greek word μῖμος (mimos), an "actor" or "mime", and the feminine suffix -osa, "resembling", suggesting its 'sensitive leaves' which seem to 'mimic conscious life'.
