"It's broken!" Flora wails again, her cries gin-soaked and wobbly as she tries to sit up. Dressed in a pair of lululemons sweatpants and an oversized t-shirt, the Doubletake is far from the picture of poise she'd have presented had she known another meet cute was in the cards. Given that it was LongNight and that the previous year Koa had been spending it in Stormbreak defending the city, Flora hadn't bothered with donning an outfit and had indeed only put on mascara before stepping out into the dusk-dark street to work on her decorations.
"Nnnnnnn!" The queen complains, though she does as she's told. Part of her would normally be inclined to flex her leg to accentuate the muscles beneath the dragoon's fingers, but just the thought had pain flaring behind her eyes so sharply that she cringed at the idea. Koa would find her ankle appropriately swollen, and though there were a number of sparkly straps around her lower leg and over the top of her foot, nothing would seem broken or immediately discoloured. "Yeah, of course I can." The words are said on a sharp inhale of breath as his fingers ghost across one of her ligaments. Mewling miserably, Flora reached out instinctively to grasp at Koa's arm, her fingers tightening as she fought not to cry out any more than she already had.

My house of stone, your ivy grows
And now I'm covered in you
And now I'm covered in you
