GREENFLOWER MODERN HS FLOWERSHOP AU

technically lloyd works at the flower and tea shop combined with a dojo his uncle and dad created (w/ the other ninja but thats besides the point) !! and lloyd originally doesnt really like the flower & tea side of it bc its boring, plants are so boring, i do not care, UNTIL brad waltzes in one day, and he’s just UNBEARABLY nice.

eventually lloyd keeps noticing him until he cant help but start crushing and he starts studying all this extra stuff abt plants and flower arrangements and meanings just to go up to brad and be all “do you need help” and seem remotely competent at his job and maybe even impress him.

AND BRAD, captain of gardening club, owner of a bajillion plants, is so shocked that LLOYD, his long time crush from middle school to hs, who is not supposed to know he exists, who only went to the shop to maybe bask in the atmosphere after soccer practice and silently admire lloyd, is talking to him that he jumps at the chance and pretends to not know anything abt plants so he has an excuse to talk to him more! and he pretends to get excited to try a bunch of different tea and love it even though he HATES tea (he is a coffee man) because he likes seeing sensei wu, sensei garmadon, ninja, & lloyd’s reaction to him trying the tea. they’ve become very avid tea lovers.
