[ WEEK SIX ]

WEEK SIX

CURRENT POPULATION: 14

It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.

... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!

After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.



This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to [plurk.com profile] robowest.

[quietly]

A bookmark, made of pressed flowers. Sunflowers, chrysanthemums, and cosmos flowers.

She made one for every person in this town.

[every person]

[That... really was like her, wasn't it?

Shinnosuke lets out a broken laugh.]


What was the point of making one for me? It's not like I can even see it. [Though he's feeling bumps in the glue, and he's... hoping that it's not what he thinks it is.] Idiot...

[quiet for a moment, before she asks]

. . . would you like for me to describe it for you? I know it isn't the same, but it is her gift to you.
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (god woman i'm trying to be a jerk here)

[...]

Fine.

[He hands the bookmark back.]

[she takes it and runs her hands over the raised glue]

. . . the sunflowers, chrysanthemums, and pink cosmos are arranged down the bookmark, making it tall enough to fit two of each flower in an alternating pattern. The colors don't exactly match, but I don't think that matters when you take into account what the flowers mean.

[flips the bookmark over to read the back]

The sunflowers are for "always having faith." The chrysanthemums are for "strong friendship" and "staying hopeful." The cosmos are for "affection" and "remembering happy things."

[and she hands the bookmark back to him]
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (in the end it didn't even matterrrrrrrr)

[He takes the bookmark, gripping it tightly. He hopes he's not shaking—he feels himself, slightly, and he prays it's just his imagination.

(It's not.)]


Ha... so the opposite of everything I stand for, huh? [No. He knows very well why she chose those flowers.] Idiot.

[I ♡ U. Really, Yuna?

... Her death was bad enough. Now this, as well?]

[she just smiles, although it's a little sad]

You should try writing her a letter of thanks. I imagine she'd be very happy to hear from you.
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (no let's not do karaoke again)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-02-22 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, there's, uh. A reason he's here, when he hates the post office.]

I'm sure she has plenty of other friends who're better off doing that.

[HE SAYS AS IF HE DOESN'T HAVE A LETTER FOR HER.]

[personal profile] thatsthespirit 2017-02-23 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, but none of those friends are you.

[she says in a "duh" kind of tone]
insincerely: ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. (whatever liezel you loser)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-02-23 09:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Does that matter?
thatsthespirit: (pic#10763558)

[personal profile] thatsthespirit 2017-02-23 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes?

[now she just sounds confused. why wouldn't it?]
insincerely: ᴍᴀɴɢᴀ. (allow me to give you my informed opinion)

[personal profile] insincerely 2017-02-24 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
I don't see how.

[why would it??]
thatsthespirit: (pic#10763635)

[personal profile] thatsthespirit 2017-02-25 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Because you're the only Shinnosuke here. Any letter she receives from someone else wouldn't be a letter from you.
