Day 378 | Open Action
[Action; Sector 4; outside the new flower shop]

[Between forced sleep and a grueling heatwave, Yuuki's managed to keep herself plenty busy despite whatever shenanigans are tossed around the domed prison. From gardening, to gathering supplies and lots of set up she's barely remained still in one place for more than a few minutes. Anyone who frequents sector four may have seen her around much more often, in conjunction with a new shop that has come together rather nicely over the course of the last few days. It settles in nicely among the businesses and brick buildings. Beautiful flowers and plants decorate the entrance, with an elegant yet simple sign overhead that reads 'Nine White Orchids'.

The sign that would indicate that they're open is flipped around to indicate that it isn't yet. But the door is propped wide open with a wedge which proves that someone is inside. A soft, feminine voice can be heard humming inside, lyrics heard intermittently. The sweet, dulcet tones reach outside the shop, intertwining invisibly around anyone within hearing distance. Be careful not to listen too closely, or it's possible to find oneself inside the shop without really thinking about it.

But then maybe you're the type who would have peeked inside anyhow?

Otherwise, the girl humming to herself might set foot outside on her own, a pot of flowers in hand, should one remain unaffected or linger outside the door.]

[Private to Yuuri Shibuya]

Yuuri-kun, can I talk to you if you have a moment?

(OOC: Her singing voice can have an enchanting affect on people (Particularly vampires if relevant or desired). Feel free to use that if you like. Otherwise feel free to resist or remain unaffected! She's not intentionally doing anything. Her desire to do well and be able to draw people into the shop is simply leaking out. Here's a Permissions Post for anyone who might find it useful.)

	[Yuuki needs to be less adorable. There are too many adorable people in Marina and it's very confusing.] You're not even open, are you? Sorry for coming in like that. I think I owe it to you to get something, but I can wait. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Marina is home to the adorable including Felix] It's fine! I'll take it as a good sign. [Honestly she's a little glad.] But I insist, you should buy something. Or-- take something. [No currency and all] It'll save you a trip. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[>//<] If you insist... [he will look around uncertainly like he half expects the plants to become mobile and attack.] Um. Do you have any recommendations? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She likes them all, to be honest. So it's hard to pick just one thing, but-] What about an orchid? Something named after the shop. I'm partial to them myself. [But then her family name means Nine Orchids, so she's bias. Or rather, she thought it was a clever play on words.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have no idea which ones those are, but I'm willing to trust your expertise. [Wait. He's being extremely rude, isn't he?] Sorry—I should've at least given you a name after walking in on you. I'm Felix Gaeta. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It's all right. [She didn't find him rude! Rather, she's flattered that he wandered into the shop.]

My name is Yuuki Kuran. It's nice to meet you, Gaeta-san. [She bows politely]

The orchid is what the shop is named for! _{Although it was more of a play on my family name...} [Anyway-] What about something like this?

[Moving across the room she picks it up] Or do you think something named after the shop is too cheesy?

Just Felix is fine, Yuuki. [Gaeta is someone he doesn't really want to be right now. And there's... bowing? Okay. He imitates her bow because that seems like the thing to do.] Or do you go by Kuran?

No, I like that one. [He follows her across the shop to get a better look at it, not that he can judge it on any grounds that aren't strictly aesthetic.] Something named after the shop would be a fitting first sale, don't you think?

	Just Yuuki is fine. [She really prefers it in the end, even if she doesn't mind the opposite.] And Felix, then. [It's such a unique name to her.] I like to think that an orchid would be, though, you're right. I'm glad you approve. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	didwhaticould 2016-06-23 11:07 pm UTC (link)
	Just Yuuki. Got it. [To be fair, 'Felix' is a pretty unique name to everyone. Most parents are kind enough to not saddle their kids with it.] How easy is it to care for? I'm not exactly a botanist. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

The one here is already potted in the most optimal means of taking care of it, so you probably wont have to do anything too special.

[Hmm...] I would say orchids do best with ample water, but make sure to allow the growing media to dry out between times. They also do best with bright, indirect sunlight. They do well with the sun, but too much sun will scorch the petals

	So water, but not too much water... sun, but not too much sun. Sounds easy enough. [Not really, but he'll do his best. Felix picks the orchid up and holds it close like he thinks Yuuki will change her mind and take it back.] You're sure I should just take it? That's fine with robots, but it feels like there should be some kind of transaction here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2016-06-29 07:15 am UTC (link)
	Well... do you want there to be a transaction? [Amused, amused....] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	didwhaticould 2016-06-29 06:45 pm UTC (link)
	Seems like the thing to do. I don't think I have anything on me that you'd want to trade for, though, unless you smoke. [Yuuki doesn't look like a smoker. Just saying.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She shakes her head. She'll pass on that.] How about a favor, then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	didwhaticould 2016-06-29 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	That sounds fair. Do you want to collect now or later? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2016-06-29 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	Whenever is fine! [It's simple enough she thinks] When you go out, tell your friends about the flower shop! I'd really like if more people come to visit once it's officially open. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	didwhaticould 2016-06-29 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	Just my friends? [All one of them? Oh, Yuuki. That's not going to help you rope in customers.] I'll do you one better and tell my casual acquaintances about it. I should get out of your hair so you can actually open. Sorry again for walking in on you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2016-06-30 07:53 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you. I'd really appreciate the advertisement. [He's not being a bother at all, but she nods.] It's no problem. I'm glad you did. Please visit again any time. I'd be happy if you do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	didwhaticould 2016-06-30 08:14 pm UTC (link)
	I'd be happy to drop by again... hopefully not with an orchid that I need you to revive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2016-06-30 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	Ahaha [She's amused] If you do, it's no trouble. I'd be glad to help with that, too. [She lifts a finger up] I've heard singing can help plants. Maybe if you sing to it once a day you wont have to make the trip back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	didwhaticould 2016-07-01 12:04 am UTC (link)
	That's something I could manage. [His singing doesn't have magical side effects like hers, but he's pretty good.] If singing does help plants, then the ones in here couldn't be in better hands. Good luck, Yuuki. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trappedinresin 2016-07-01 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	You're too nice. But thank you. [It makes her smile a little more. Her spirits are definitely brighter thanks to his stop by.] And to you too. I'm sure you'll make a fine orchid owner. (Reply to this) (Parent)
