Tea! Tea. I certainly could use a spot of tea. Especially in this kind of weather. 

…But not with fishsticks. They can stay away from tea.

[the-shy-dreamer]

W-why would you have fish sticks with uhm tea?

[caoins-blog]

Oh, I’m sure they’ll be fine… And you can always replant them come Spring, right?

[the-shy-dreamer]

I-I suppose, but... but some flowers only bloom in the winter. ...What will Ms. Gillard say? And w-what about the customers?

Oh god, there just won't be enough time for everything.

[caoins-blog]

It doesn’t seem like the storm will be letting up any time soon.

[the-shy-dreamer]

O-oh my god. I don't think my flowers c-can survive something like this.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[mollyabrams]

Whose’s Ms. Gillard? I work at the sparrow estate, which is the entire bane of my existence and even saying the words leave a distasteful.. taste in my mouth.

[the-shy-dreamer]

Ms. Gillard owns the flower shop. She... she's like a mother figure to me.

I-I'm sorry. Do they not treat you well there?

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate the cold?

[adrian-titan-darcy-deactivated2]

I don’t particularly like flowers and blooming things.  I like autumn, the smell of dying plants filling the air with smells that distinctive autumn smell. Though I wouldn’t mind the winter if it wasn’t so cold.

[the-shy-dreamer]

O-oh that's too bad then. I uhm find flowers actually quite lovely. The smell of life is kind of refreshing - at least that's what I think.

Uh you said you aren't used to the cold? Why is that? ...If you don't mind me asking.

[adrian-titan-darcy-deactivated2]

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate the cold?

One would think that by now, I’d be used to the cold. However the more time I spend in it, the more I come to hate it.

[the-shy-dreamer]

The cold isn't uhm all that bad.

...Sometimes the most beautiful things bloom in the winter.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[mollyabrams]

That must be fun, I would love to work at a joint like that, how’d you get so lucky?

[the-shy-dreamer]

I... I don't know really. I guess I have to thank Ms. Gillard for it.

Where uhm do you work?

Rapunzel + painting

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[bedheadfreddy]

We wouldn’t want that, now, would we?

That sounds so French that I doubt I can pronounce it correctly, so Aura it is. Have you received any Christmas flowers yet?

[the-shy-dreamer]

M-me? No. No, I uh don't think anyone would buy flowers for me.

[grace-frost]

Alright...

[grace-frost]

Oh, awesome! I knew I was heading in the right direction! Well actually, no, no I didn’t… Lucky guess more or less… But thank you, thank you very much!

[the-shy-dreamer]

You're welcome. Sorry - I ah would bring you there myself, but I just have so many things to do.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[mollyabrams]

Orders of what?

[the-shy-dreamer]

Just uhm flower arrangements.

I uh work at the flower shop.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[bedheadfreddy]

That’s definitely news to me. I didn’t think flowers were ever picked unless it was February. Embarrassing.

Uh, I’m Freddy.

[the-shy-dreamer]

If they were only picked in February then I'd be out of a job.

Aurélie, but uhm people just call me Aura.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[bedheadfreddy]

Uh…There’s such a thing as flowers for Christmas? I’ve heard of flowers for Valentine’s Day. What are they, blue and red?

[the-shy-dreamer]

Uh, yes actually.

They're usually just uhm white and red. Things like roses and carnations are usually popular all year round.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[savannahgraceyates-deactivated2]

They could be? Holly, mistletoe, lights, tinsel? I don’t know, you’re the florist. Or I assume you are?

[the-shy-dreamer]

Ah, yes.

Well poinsettias are quite popular this time of year, and Christmas roses. 

[grace-frost]

Alright...

[grace-frost]

Ah, I don’t have any of the food yet  sadly… I was actually on my way to pick up some groceries, buuut I don’t exactly know where to go. 

[the-shy-dreamer]

Uhm well, there's a store right around here. Just keep heading straight and make a right at the intersection.

[the-shy-dreamer]

I'm a little worried.

[jewellisms-blog]

Ooh, I love flowers! It may be cliche, but I just think roses are lovely. So do you work at the floral shop in town, then?

[the-shy-dreamer]

Oh I don't think it's cliché at all! Roses are beautiful! They're one of the oldest flowers in history, and before they became romanticized were even used to symbolize factions in England during the Middle Ages.

Oh my gosh, I'm rambling aren't I? Sorry about that. Ah yes, I do work at the flower shop.
