[Needing to clear his head Vash has decided to talk a walk around town. He’s still not really sure what to do about the letter. He needs to go home and ‘take care of’ his brother - but he’s already made friends here he doesn’t want to forget about. In the midst of his brooding he notices something.] There’s a flower shop here? Ahhhh! I wonder if they have geraniums!! [Vash can be found near/around the flower shop before heading back home]

[goldenglasses]

Yeah! That would be- [oh wait - what did she say?] Oh! Do you work there?

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh, I do! [pausing for a moment, then--] Do you want to go inside and look around? It's much warmer in there than it is out here.

[goldenglasses]

Oh boy! Could I?! I'd love to see all of the flowers you have!

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Hehehe, sure! Right this way! [And with that, she starts walking towards the door of the shop.]

[goldenglasses]

Really?! Thanks!!! [He follows behing like an excited puppy]

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

[And once she's got the door open and steps out of the way--]

Alright! Here they are!

[She cheerfully waves an arm towards a large display, chock full of different types of winter and any-season flowers. Geraniums are among them.]

[goldenglasses]

[When the door opens he stands there shocked and speechless. He’s quiet for at least a full minute.] Wow… so beautiful. [So beautiful in fact that he’s begun to cry] There’s so many!

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Hehe, yeah, they're really-- [Wait a sec, is this guy crying?] M-Mister? What's wrong?!

[goldenglasses]

[He wipes his eyes before giving you a happy smile.] Nothing. I’m alright. Their beauty just took my breath away. [He’s honestly so happy he was literally crying] I’ve never seen so many different kinds all at once. It’s amazing.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

... Really? Do they not have a lot of flowers where you're from?

[goldenglasses]

Actually... my planet doesn't have any. It's a desert. [He heads towards the Geraniums a bit hesitantly. He can't believe they're really there let alone a whole room of flowers.]

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

The whole planet? How terrible ... It must be very hard, living in an environment like that all the time ...

[goldenglasses]

[He smiles] Well, I won't say it's easy; but some people have been able to grow some grass and even trees. We're working on creating a better world. [He kneels down toward the geraniums.] Oh Rem... they really are beautiful.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Really? What a relief! ♥ I hope the day you and the others from your world see a nice, green planet comes sooner than later! [-- Wait a sec, did he say a name? ... Maybe it wouldn't be too polite to ask directly. Let's try an indirect way /o/] Is there a reason you were looking for geraniums specifically?

[goldenglasses]

[Blinks - opps oh yeah. Coming back from his daydream.] Oh, [he laughs shyly knowing he's been caught] They were a very dear friend's favorite flower. She use to tell me about them all the time.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Oh! Then your world had a flower garden somewhere too?

[goldenglasses]

It could! I mean... I've traveled a lot and haven't seen one myself yet... but! That doesn't mean there isn't one or one will eventually grow! [He turns his head back to the geranium.] They smell wonderful.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

I hope one does soon, if there aren't any yet! [Well, seeing how much he likes these flowers--] Would you like to take some geraniums home with you? I could get a vase of them set up for you if you want!

[goldenglasses]

Thanks; I really appreciate the offer. But, if it’s alright, I’d rather leave them here so they can grow and live.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

[She blinks for a moment before giving a genuine smile.] Alright, I understand. That's really very kind of you, to think of them like that!

[goldenglasses]

All life is precious. [He smiles back brightly] That's what Rem taught me.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

She must be a wonderful person ...

[goldenglasses]

[He nods] She was.

Thank you for showing me all this. You have no idea how much it means to me.

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

It's no problem at all! You can come back and visit the flowers whenever you'd like!

[goldenglasses]

Really!? [Uh-oh... Vash hug attack!] Thank you so much!! This is great!!!!!!
