Hello, Somarium.

[Youji is out of frame, but the Dreamberry is very much focused on the doorway of the flowershop, Nectar.]

The very strangest thing--it being the season and all, I went to place a sprig of mistletoe in our shop doorway. But it seems there's one already there. Fitting for a flowershop, but I'm wondering who got the jump on me.

[Youji shifts around so that he's standing beneath the mistletoe now, smiling in a rather cocky fashion.]

As I said, though, 'tis the season! We've got poinsettias and Christmas roses looking to brighten up someone's window or place setting, and as a special bonus, I happen to need a Christmas date.

[He winks.]

What do you think, ladies? Hoping to see you soon!

[She's just going to ignore that bit about the mistletoe. She's been watching out for those, yes she has.]

You have excellent timing, Mr. Kudou. I was looking into ordering some poinsettias for the mansion.

That is lucky. Will this order be delivery or pickup?

I suppose I could make the trip down - although if I am ordering flowers I will have to find a way to carry them back.

[Let's see, Sena--or rather, Takeru is currently six and no help; Omi is looking after him and no help; Ran is probably also looking after him and no help; and he hasn't checked in with Ken and Aya.]

I can get away for a while, if need be. I hate the thought of a lady forced to carry her own flowers.

Are you sure? I could probably find someone in the mansion to accompany me down if you're previously engaged.

What could be more engaging than helping you?

Don't worry about it.

If you're sure.

Has the shop been busy with Christmas coming?

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2010-12-11 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely positive.

Not really. There's another flower shop close by. If we're all busy, they'll go to Aerith's or vice-versa.

Why? Do you have an idea that might help us pick up?

Unfortunately business is not my area of expertise. That's unfortunate for you though. It looks like a lovely shop.

[identity profile] slantedcross.livejournal.com 2010-12-12 09:49 am (UTC)(link)
Having a lovely shop is the best business model, so we're not fussed.

[Well, that and having five hot guys + one cute girl as the clerks.]

We break even, most of the time. What more can you ask, really?

As long as you're content doing what you do, then I suppose there really is nothing more that you could ask. Did you deal with flowers back home as well?

I used to, years ago. Became an art teacher not long before arriving here, but some friends from that time already had a flower shop running here.

Hopefully Miss Lovelace is similarly content? How are you settling in?

An art teacher? What sorts of mediums do you use?

[She smiles.]

I'm rather content as of late. Granted, the moving ornaments and spontaneous mistletoe are a bit much for my liking.
