we show off our different scarlet letters
"Oh!" Too excited at her own genius to notice the effect her words have had on Isla, Flora nods her head over toward where Mateo was currently chatting it up with Paige. "He's there! He has a botany shop in Stormbreak." The girl explains, grinning. "I always thought the Isla he was named after must have been someone who died or whatever." Luckily, a sparkle of decorum keeps Flora from asking just what it was Isla had done to merit the use of her name as Mateo's middle one; the raised arch of her eyebrows very much suggests she'd been keen to hear it if Isla was up for explaining, though.
"Yeah, I'm not really sure of all the details. But I know my mom burned down part of the bar when they all broke up." All having included Nate of course, but Flora simply assumed that Isla would know that. "He was married to my auntie Pheobe too." She says, nodding toward where Phoebe was still talking with Jack. "And then she was married to Harper, who is the dickhead and new king, who was..or is? engaged to Maeve, the former queen, who also was with Sunjata. Then of course Remi and my mom being together, which Ronin absolutely hated. I still don't think they ever talk." This little exploration more than confirms that although her guests might have been surprised by the number of skeletons, that Flora certainly hadn't been.
"But I mean, that's Torchline for you."
