Mateo
"Mm, yes, like those," Mateo agrees with a nod, only to furrow his brow to hear that they had never sprouted. "Well that will not do. Perhaps I could give you a sapling to take home, if you are so keen to have one grow?" The botanist might know of Koa's absolute horror when it comes to sentinent plants, but he doesn't know that's why Kai wants one so much. Ergo, he can't be blamed for any future chaos that potentially comes from this meeting today.
In response to the other man's kicked-puppy look, Mateo merely offers a quiet narrowing of his eyes, before starting to gently examine the hydrangeas. "That one?" he echoes, moving towards the back of the plant and teasing away the cluster Kai has suggested. Raising his eyebrows to confirm this is the one he's content to have, Mateo takes a set of delicate hand shears from his apron and looks for the most promising blooms to clip away.
Soon enough, he offers in his palm a selection of four or five perfect little blue flowers. "I will put them in a container for you?" he offers. "That way you can choose which is best to put into resin when the time comes."
