#ooc: he's sooo silly. you got given the 'vengance is a dish best served cold' and 'youre delusional' flowers and he thinks it's very funny

Chilchuck is laughing again, but it's only a little meanspirited, very much the laugh of a middle child who has just shoved their younger brother into the lake.

"Well-" He starts, and bends down to pick up an example, an explosive shrub of small pink flowers. Kabru would recognise them as hydrangeas. "We call these Luigrein'na Scamaill where I come from," his voice takes on a bit of a lighter quality when he speaks his native tongue, "Roughly translated, it's something like Sunset of Clouds. One of the stories I heard growing up was about a man named Lochlee, his wife Sedgewinn and their garden filled with blue flowers like these. One night, Lochlee returned to find Sedgewinn had been killed by giants and swore revenge, and though he was much smaller than them, he managed to outsmart them. When he returned home, the flowers had all turned pink, and they stayed that way until he passed too, at which point they turned purple. Gifting a half-foot pink Luigrein'na Scamaill usually implies that you're seeking revenge against them for some kind of slight, one that you intend to end in bloodshed."

"These ones-" He picks up another bouquet, asters, "Coimeid, Comets, they're nowhere near as intense, and they don't have any kind of story tied to them, as far as I'm aware... It's just that if you give these to a half-foot, they'll think you're calling them delusional. "

"From a half-foot perspective, in my very humble opinion, I'd say some of your suitors think you've done something terribly wrong. Maybe you're not as much of a local lad and ladykiller as I thought."

"Heheheh- Wow, Kabru! Looks like you've got more than a few suitors chasing after you and dumping flowers on you, huh? You sly dog! What did you end up doing to become the castle's latest heartthrob?"

Kabru pushes some of the flowers out of the way so he can look down at the half-foot, a big, charming smile worming its way onto his face. It's not fake, at least it doesn't look it, but there's a tinge of innocence that looks misplaced.

What was that?
