Today was a day she had been looking forward to - Flora was visiting! And not just for any visit, but to help her craft some jewelry for the Ancients' festival that was coming up. Flora was young and fashionable like her mother so she knew her niece would know exactly what to make with the rubies she had found to flatter her. Red wasn't usually her color - she was more of a pink lady - but if anyone knew how to make it work for her, it would be Flora. Plus there was apparently some gossip about her hating Harper now that she had to hear. On her table she had everything they could possibly need: wire, adhesive, ribbon, string, haircombs, earring hooks - you name it, it was there. All she had to do was pick up Flora from the Skyboat drop off. So she headed that way when it was due to dock, scanning the crowd as people spilled out. Spotting her she smiled and waved. "Over here, Flora!" Phoebe Be gentle to all and stern with yourself |

Flora
Though the Skyboat ride from Torchline was a long one, Flora had caught up on some much-needed sleep along the way, such that she was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed as she hopped off the boat, aqua eyes peeled for her aunt. Spying Phoebe almost immediately, the Doubletake flashes in her direction, returning her aunt's wave before throwing her arms happily around her shoulders. "Hey!" Pressing a kiss against Phoebe's cheek, Flora takes a step back in order to beam up at the Nightengale. 'Thanks for meeting me.' Though Flora probably could have made her way on her own, given how many memories she had of the Greatwood (some good, some bad, but all including Enzo), it was nice not to be left alone. "Soooooo, this Festival, huh?" She murmurs, linking her arm around Phoebe's. the Nightingale

Flora
'I mean...here's hoping no one dies?' Said with a laugh, there's still an air of seriousness in the undertones of Flora's voice. "I wonder if my dads will go." She muses, glancing in Phoebe's direction. Had the Nightengale been there when Aoife had died? It wasn't a story that was often retold and certainly not with any real detail, so she couldn't be sure. 'Oh my gods so cute!" The Doubletake remarks brightly of the demigodess's cottage. Of course, she'd expected nothing else, but still, she was utterly delighted. Looking around and becoming immediately distracted by the brilliant rubies on the table, the Doubletake makes her way over with her fingers already reaching to touch everything. "Oooh, what if you did your hair like this.." Turning, she makes hand gestures to represent big curls tangling down toward Phoebe's shoulders. "Then you could have two braids like this.." Small braids across the top of her aunt's head like a headband, "..with a row of rubies in between? Super chic but not flashy, you know?" the Nightingale

Flora
'Buhhhh, tell me about it. Although, Ronin got a talking to from Safrin so he's had to be out and about more which I think has forced Remi to go along.' Flora says with a careless shrug. What they did in their spare time couldn't have mattered less to the Doubletake, so long as they showed up when she needed them. Selfish? Entitled? Sure. But given the distant parents they'd been her whole life, she thought the balance was more or less appropriate. 'Oooh, perfect!' Flora coos, nodding emphatically as she reaches for the pins. Carefully she begins to set the stones through the metal, adjusting each so that it would lay perfectly against her aunt's head. "Okay, so." Glancing up with a crooked smile, Flora tilts her head mischievously to the side. "Where do you stand with Harper right now? Because I sort of think you should hate him too." the Nightingale

Hoping that her aunt would just..hate her former husband on principle, Flora's lips curl into a disappointed sneer as she focuses on the gems in her hand. 'Absent fathers build character.' She muses offhandedly; Flora would know, after all. 'Uhm, because he's a dickhead for one.' Widening her eyes for emphasis, Flora sucks in a sudden breath as she pokes herself with one of the pins drawing a ruby-red bead of blood on her finger to match those she was working with. Huffing, she combs her fingers through her hair with one hand before giving her head a little shake. "He was so rude to me. In front of every one." Flora begins. "We were both up for leadership for Torchline, and he started by saying how he wasn't going to make any personal attacks at me, which is basically just a way of trying to look good while also saying that there were things to attack, and so I told him to go ahead. And then he did!" Furious, Flora tries not to let her nostrils flare as she huffs out an annoyed breath. "Like, don't just say you're going to be the good guy and then just not?" Had she baited Harper? Okay yes, a little, but he shouldn't have taken the bait. "And he just...he shit all over my family and was mean." the Nightingale

Flora
'Uhm, no I don't." Flora argues, before smiling sunnily up at Phoebe as she offers out the bandage. "He basically accused me of being young and a kid, but then basically acted like one himself so I'm not sure why he gets to just ride around on his high horse." She adds, huffing and glaring down at the rubies in her fingers as if it was their fault she hadn't won the election. "He absolutely does." Raising her chin and pursing out her lower lip, Flora lets her nostrils flare indignantly. 'And he deserves to trip and hit his shin on something." She adds petulantly before holding up a long and intricate braid of rubies for her aunt's approval. "How's this?" the Nightingale

Flora
"Well, it's stupid." Flora summarizes with a huff and an exaggerated roll of her eyes. "Maybe I'll make a drink at the Tavern called the doublestandard and it'll just be the wash water from the bathrooms and I'll dedicate it to Harper." She suggests with a sly smile, grinning mischievously at her aunt before turning her attention back to the task at hand. 'Oooh, I'm so glad you like it!' Rising from her chair, Flora begins to tease Phoebe's hair into the rough shape she wanted it in before placing the ruby headband just so. "Perfect, if I do say so myself." She beams, before adjusting a long strand of the Nightengale's hair with a twirl of her finger. "Thanks for inviting me over to do this. It's nice to have a break from work." And so the two wiled away the last of the afternoon's light with tea and cookies and loads more gossip. ~FIN | |||||
