Flora
As toppings go cartwheeling to the floor like fallen soldiers in a noble sacrifice, Flora doesn’t even flinch. Let them fall. They were pawns in a much larger war, and frankly? Cheese and chips were the only true allies she needed. The hot sauce had better pray it didn’t betray her lest it too be subject to her wrath.
She stalks forward like a queen who’s spotted rebellion in her kitchen and plans to quash it with a spatula and a smile. The whack to his arm had been satisfying, yes—but not nearly as much as the sight of him cornered, cloth flailing in a feeble defence that she tries to interrupt with another sharp strike, this time aimed at tangling up his weapon entirely. "You started this," she hisses, raising the spatula like a sword. "And I refuse to accept anything less than your complete surrender."
His back hits the counter and her grin turns near-predatory. The offer he throws out lands between them like a clumsy white flag, and she laughs—a short, incredulous bark of sound that says oh, you wish. "Kiss it better?" she echoes, arching a brow. "With what? That mouth that can't even keep sand out of it or handle heat?".

I hope you're sweating the bigger stuff,
finding some peace in an honest love
Hope you stop when you've had enough & throw the towel in
