Only two years? Considering you moved from a whole other country I’d say two years is impressively not long, especially with college in the middle. I remember moving from home to campus had me stressed enough! Snow in May, I read about that happening! The world can do some crazy things. I think that’s it yeah, it’s like you suddenly realize they aren’t so bad after all. Hm, vanilla and lavender? Sounds like an interesting combination. I know it’s used as a flavor more and more these days but I can’t say I’m a fan. Only like lavender for its scent and calming abilities myself so you’re right about that. I get it, spend so much time in the same place and it starts to feel like a second home - or third in your case I suppose, if we’re counting Australia too! I really hope you find the perfect spot and that dream becomes a reality for you someday. You seem very passionate about it. You’re welcome, Willow. It sure can because yep that’s me! Ryder’s great. Easy guy to be friends with.

It probably should’ve taken longer, but my head was so set on passing classes. I had two major boxes that I left out in my room. One had the warm clothes the other had lighter shirts. It stayed like that for a little until I finally became steadier. Mother nature just always knows best even if she makes it snow in May. It’s a very soothing combo and makes the coffee sweet enough for me to drink. The scent is way better than the taste. Yeah I guess I have a lot of homes, but each one feels that way for a different reason. So that does give me more ability to travel. I do need to visit home soon. That has just been hard after the wildfires. Lately I have been doing a lot of thinking about moving outside of the city. I love it here, but at one point my dream home should be a reality. Growing old near nature is the main goal. Ever since I was little I wanted a nice spot for flowers and people. I forget what made me so passionate about it. He really is a nice guy! He lets me babble about nerdy things so we get along well.

Does anyone ever joke that you and Will Smith's daughter have the same name?

Yes people do joke about that and I don’t really mind it. I mean I am a lot older than her so Will must’ve taken a note from my parents. When I was younger I watched a lot of Fresh Prince.

What is your favourite movie?

Matilda is by far the best movie. Danny Devito helped make it and you got the character Ms. Honey. The whole story to me is about finding your own love. Which was a message that really helped me as I got older. 

[willowroses-whatif]

Do you like musicals? If so, what is your favourite?

I love musicals! This one is really hard since I grew up on two musicals My Fair Lady and The Sound of Music. Then when Hamilton came into my life that change it forever. So to just pick one is hard, but I will go with My Fair Lady. Since she was a flower girl who said lovely. Well she said loverly, but we all know what she meant.

I’m counting on making a special day of it, that’s for sure. You’re serious? That’s very kind of you! I’m sure she’s gonna love that.

I am very serious! Anything for little ones who love flowers. They are our future and if they can appreciate nature that is all that matters. How did the day with her end up going? I am sure she was super excited to see you.

Wait, you had pink and blue hair? Really? I’ve had pink hair before, back in high school. Long story short, it was a crazy time of my life, and once again, Rachel saved me.  Yes, it’s been amazing to work with Marvel. But since I am Supergirl, I also work with DC. And sometimes I get some very weird comments from people that only like Marvel, or DC, and it’s always… Weird, you know? God, I am just doing my job, and well, doing what I love, you know? I could and would never pick between Marvel and DC. I went to a party with the two of them before. When CW decided to throw a “welcome supergirl” kind of party. haha They were all there! You think we should make a show about our love, really? And would someone really wanna watch it?

Yeah! It was a couple years ago and sometimes I re-do it during Halloween. Dying your hair in High School is something only some do. Normally it is done when times aren’t always the best. Trying to make a bold statement with your hair is what I did when rebelling. It’s nice to know you had Rachel through so much. 

I always forget people have that DC vs Marvel thing. Since I really enjoy both! People just need to learn how to love things and not bother with hateful comments. Each one has something different and wonderful they brought to the world. Even though it makes total sense they were there I am still going to freak out. How pretty were they in person?! When I watch that show I just get why I am into women and men, haha. Quinn think about you were a cheerleader and she was the glee star. That would be a great tv show! I would be watching it for sure!

If I took you to do some karaoke today, what would be the song you choose to do?

Hmm..I would have to say Heaven Is A Place On Earth by Belinda Carlisle. It’s such a jam and really fun to sing!

[willowroses-whatif]

What do you think of Lima?

I have yet to visit Lima, but I am planning on going very soon. When I do I can answer this question a lot better. So far though it seems the people who live there are very nice. 

[willowroses-whatif]

Who is the best guy you know? This totally isn’t Cooper by the way. Nuh-uh, not at all.

Hmm I think I know who this is...my favorite dude Cooper!

See? I told you thing would fall back on the right path eventually. I work from home, so tecnically any day would be good, and like you said, aafter hours would be best, that way we wouldn’t be interrupted. What about next week? Tuesday, Wednesday maybe?

Wednesday would be a great day. Would six at night work? My shop closes at five so the shop would actually be clean when you arrive. Plus there is great take out around the area. Thank you for helping me with all this. I really appreciate it.

Oh totally agree.  I literally squealed when I saw that option.  If anything could have made me love the game more it was that. 

Yikes.  Sounds like the country re opened just in the nick of time for a lot of people.   Understandable.  You’ve got to be really raking in the Dollars to afford a town house or something like that.  Particularly if you are buying on your own.  Dream big though and who knows it may come true one day.  

You want to make becoming a mermaid reality ?  I saw a documentary once about people who did that just that.  They have tails made and there a special swimming classes that teach you how to swim in it.   It was bizarre but strangely beautiful at the same time.    Have I got Disney Plus.  Girl I’ve just named by Daughter Willow LEIA do you think I’d miss out on Mandalorian by not signing up 

Being a Dad is amazing ,  she’s just so beautiful and I swore she smiled at me the other day , but Mom just laughed and told me it was wind and two week old babies don’t smile.  Unfortunately my health means I need someone in the room with me if I’m cuddling her, because if I have a panic attack or worse a seizure then there’s the chance I could accidentally drop her , Which almost happened the other day .  I felt terrible  but the advantage of living with two wonderful women is that there is always one of them on hand to step in and avoid any disasters and I don’t know why I’m telling you all of that bearing in mind we don’t really know each other , but I dunno you’re kind of easy to talk to. 

It really did open in the nick time. It was nice of the city to give us options on how to pay things during it, that also helped. Even with a townhouse you would have to get the top if you wanted a garden. The top level is even more expensive than the rest. At one point I will probably leave the city area. Just so that I can grow old near nature and a proper garden. 

Not sure if I would go far enough as surgery, but I respect who has. Maybe I would just buy those cool fake tails people get when they cosplay as mermaids. Disney used to have women dress up as mermaids and lounge around. I wish that was that a thing today cause that would be my job. Just lounging and being a mermaid at Disney. Oh my gosh that name is beyond wonderful! I am not just saying that even though, it would seem I am biased. Leia is such a kick ass middle name. 

Oh that is so beautiful to hear! Once she does get her smile I am sure there will be lot to go around. Baby giggles and smiles are such lovely things. I can’t imagine how hard it must be to have that extra worry. You have that parent worry and then your health also. However, you are right that having those two women really help. They will always be there even if something does happen. As Willow gets older she will learn more about your health and you can bond from that. No worries you can tell me whatever you like, I love to listen to people. Thanks you I just always want to be there for people if they need it. Even if I don’t know them all people need someone to listen.

Really? I’ve never actually thought about it; it does make sense though. Yeah, she’s living in the big world, I know she’s been busy with some auditions recently. Oh, you have a twin brother? That’s cool. You’re technically older, but probably just a couple minutes older, not sure if that actually counts…Does it? They are pretty epic! Do you think they have nice flower shops in Lima? I don’t think so. It does. There’s something special about the Rose family, I consider that as a fact. Well, I have a business degree, graduated from Ohio State. I started my internship at Pinball Delight in New York two weeks ago.

I agree! It’s all about feeling good about yourself, especially after being hurt. As a new self-proclaimed love expert-friend, I say you do it right— nah, just jokin’. I know nothing, kind of like Jon Snow. That’s awesome! Make the most of your time with your sister!

Right now is the perfect time for auditioning since things are open again. I am sure a lot of people made some random scripts during isolation. Yeah he’s my twin and sure it doesn’t really count, but it’s the only one up I have on him. I visited a few websites to see what flower shops were like down there. So far it looks really nice and I can’t wait to see what else is down there. With their last name being Rose it makes sense to be special, in my mind. Business is interesting. There are so many different sides to it. That is such a cool gig to have! I have yet to visit, but Matt has great movie taste so I know the place must be cool. 

At first I tried not to talk about it much, but then I realized that was affecting me in certain aspects of life. Now I am trying my best to figure it all out with some help. I think it’s important to talk about despite it being a hard subject. For now I am also like Jon Snow in the art of knowing nothing. Somehow flirting has left my brain and I really wish someone had a course on it. I can’t be twenty-nine years old and forget how to flirt.

Do you consider yourself rich?

Nope, I have always been a very middle class person. Even if one day I do own a flower shop and make a lot of money, I wouldn’t really keep all of that. If I had money it would go towards education or parks. For me money really isn’t my main goal, I just want people to be happy with the product I give them. 

[willowroses-whatif]

Favorite song that features flowers?

Build Me Up Buttercup by The Foundations and Flowers in Your Hair by The Lumineers. Sorry I couldn’t chose just one. 

[willowroses-whatif]

If I wanted to make a flower arrangement to tell someone I loved them but didn't want to use roses, what flower would you recommend?

This is a really good question! So I would start out with some Carnations, lighter shades of them convey admiration and the darker shades convey love. A Daffodil would also go perfect in there since it stands for new beginnings. Make sure you put more than one in. Since one is a sign of misfortune. Then I would add some Lilac in there not only does it smell amazing, but it is a sign for first love. I think a few of those in a bouquet would really show off how you care for someone.

That would absolutely work cause we are pretty tight and he would probably talk to you for hours. I haven’t met him but I would like to if he is a Queen fan. Honestly, she will sleep in my tour bus bed and she will be idolised by thousands! It was everything I wanted and I worked real freaking hard to get here but it paid off. Then a ticket is all yours.

Well then sure I would love his number this is pretty damn exciting. If Pup Dameron meets real Poe Dameron that could blow the internet. I hope you two can meet soon. She will be living the life! Pampered and loved all for just being cute. That is the kinda life that makes for happiness. How long have you been touring with Queen now? It must feel like home to you. I cannot wait to see this show! Once tour dates for NYC are posted I will be there!
