 Cootie Canoodle had found herself without true interest in anything. She loved reading her action romance novels, but it didn't felt like reading was her calling, nor was writing said stories, she didn't hold the flair and wordsmithing her brother did. She tried everything romance, to the point of delivering flowers for her father, but the work wasn't as satisfying as she had expecting, some phonies did not like whoever sent them the flowers, some even were not fond of flowers at all. None the less, she kept running around doing deliveries here and there, it help her think, running all about the town. It was on one those trips that she discovered something she thought would be a perfect job. On her last delivery, a cute colt had answer the door did not seem very happy with the flowers(they probably for his mother), not able to take another unhappy face, she planted a big smooth on his cheek. She found herself delighted and amused by the blushing red the colt turned and the lopsided smile. This had some merit to at least be investigated further. Running off back to her father's shop, she trotted around his front legs before pressing her head against his neck, giving him big innocent eyes. "Daaaaaddy, can kisses be deliver?"

Honeysuckle's shop had never been more popular. His daughter made excellent deliveries and his son wrote nice things on the cards. Granted Larry tried to get a bit....creative...so Honey had to tone them down a bit but still they were doing well. He had sensed his little girl was needing of advice but he waited for her to tell him. All phoals seemed to trust him.
Larry was busy writing another pretty card with loopy letters and a flourish of flowery poetry when his sister about made him drop his quill. Can kisses be delivered? Well by lips yes but not like flowers, at least not in his mind. Silly C.C., always thinking up strange things. He shook his head, letting his father deal with this.
Honeysuckle blinked slowly as he lowered his large head down to his child. His long black hair pooling like it always did. "Can kisses be delivered? Hmm. Well I suppose they could this way," he nuzzled her cheek and gave her little kisses that always tickled her, "but do you mean like you deliver my flowers?"

She giggled and wiggled herself away from the tickling kisses, moving her legs carefully to not step on her daddy's hair. C.C. curled herself around Honeysuckle's front leg again and smiled. "Yes, I mean like flowers. Can someone go somewhere and buy a kiss for someone else to cheer them up? or something like that!"

Now Larry was more than a little upset at his sister's question. Such things were not proper for a young lady! Selling kisses! It was practically scandalous! He truly hoped his wise father could dispell such notions from his sibling's mind and put her on a more noble path.Honey smiled down at his little one, thinking it an interesting question. He decided to lay down on the floor so he could be more on her level. Being a draft meant everyone looked up to you, for phoals that tended to cause neck cricks. He looked thoughtful for a moment before addressing his daughter, "Well C.C. I believe there are things called Kiss-A-Grams. Where someone sends a poem or song to someone with a kiss attached. The delivery phony reads or sings then gives a kiss on the cheek or forehead to the recipient."Larry about fell over as his father actually described a profession in which kisses were bought and sold. He hoped down from his perch, no longer interested in writing the cards. "Really father! You shouldn't entertain such....behavior in your own daughter! It's not proper! Delivering something that should be given from the heart's desire does not sound...eh....proper!!"

C.C. was quiet excited when her father explained. Kiss-o-gram. It sounded fantastic and exactly what she was looking for, unfortunely her excited died down as her brother came bounding about, speaking of proper things. She huffed, lowering her ears back. "Well, it's my decision, now isn't it? If I want to be improper, then I will be!"

Honey could already see this was going to be a sore point between his two children. Their personalities were so similar yet different. Their passions ran strong and they were not afraid to speak their minds. But his dear son was of a mind that females should be as the upper society of old. Proper and prim while maintaining their dignity in all respects. C.C. was a firebrand who wanted to expand the role of a female beyond it's normal boundries. He thought on the situation for a moment.Larry frowned as C.C. huffed at him. He looked past most things that she did that he considered unproper, as none would seem to cause her a great deal of harm, but this profession did not sit well with him. Especially as her brother. "C.C. you are far to head strong some times. What if someone bought such a prize from you and attempted to do more? What if...what if someone tried to hurt you?" he looked concerned.Honey smiled again, seeing his son's thoughts on the situation. He as a good boy but a bit over zealous in his expectations of his sister. He cleared his throat to get both his children's attention. "Now now, both of you are seeing things in the wrong light," he shook his mane a little. "Larry, my boy, C.C. must find her purpose even if it does not go along with your sense of honor and propriety. She has always enjoyed giving kisses; to you, to me, to her friends. It seems fitting," he gave his pouting son a nuzzle then looked to C.C.
"And my sweet girl, do not be harsh to your brother. He is doing what all brothers feel they must, protect one of the most important women in his life; you," he smiled warmly at her, "You should think on his words as he is correct in his fears of what could happen. Perhaps give him less cause for worry with your plans?"

C.C. paused in whatever her response was going to be, listening to her father closely. Taking a moment to let the fire inside die a little, she turned her gaze to her brother. "I didn't think of that." She admitted, but took steps closer to her sibling. "However, I am my father's daughter, and anyone who tries to take advantage of me will have you and daddy to answer to, won't they? That would deter most who think of doing anything unproper to me." Flicking her tail, she gave Larry a sweet smile. "And anyone who still tries, has to deal with me. Remember, I am not a newborn, Larry. I think you are quiet familiar on how well I know where to kick?"

Larry listened to his father as he spoke to both his children. It always seemed Father could find the balance between the two of them. It was like his ability to make bouquets, he could find the perfect way to make all the flowers look beautiful in their own way even in a group.
He hung his head a little as his father gave him a gentle reprimand for trying to stiffle his sister's quest to find her true purpose. He...supposed...he was a bit harsh. C.C. was not a lady of the victorian era like his cousin and cousin-in-law. She was a modern lady with her own strength and abilities. He had to concur with his father that she always gave out kisses. He was never without his goodnight kiss from her.
He looked to his sister as she spoke and admitted she hadn't thought of the danger behind her profession. But at least she acknowledged it and thought of an alternative. At her question of his protection his little chested puffed up, "Of course I will defend your honor! No one shall bring harm to you so long as I am here!" He nodded, thinking of his never ending loyalty to his twin. He would make sure she was never harmed, but still give her the freedom she so loved.
However at her last statement his legs got a little closer together, "Yes...yes dearest sister I am QUITE well aware of your kicking prowess." Honey chuckled as he looked at his children. He was glad they both understood each other a bit more, knowing thier loyalty to each other was strong being twins. "Then it is decided. Larry you will take the orders for C.C.'s kiss-a-grams so that you may at least know where she is going and who her order is for. Is that a good compromise?"

C.C. smiled, putting a little kiss on her brother's nose before turning to her father. She pressed her side against Larry's. "I think that's a great deal. I am not very good with organization, anyways. Who better to keep an eye on orders then my brother?"

Larry nodded at his father's suggestion that he take all the orders and keep them in line. He would feel better if he at least knew where his sister was going to deliver her...kiss-o-grams...and who the intended reciepeant would be. If he didn't trust them he could always turn them down.
"Yes you can be a bit flighty on the subject of organization. Very well father, I shall be C.C.'s business manager. Ensuring she delievers properly, on time, and with class. Also I shall offer my skills at penning the poems you mentioned that are also delievered with the kiss," he nodded and lead back against his pale sister.Honey nodded his approval, "Very well my dears. I dare say you will be an added bonus to the shop. We can include C.C.'s kiss-o-grams as part of the package until you are both old enough to set up shop on your own." He grinned and stood, going back to making his bouquets. He knew his children could come to a compromise.

C.C. leaned against her brother. "My business manager! I like that" She giggled softly and rested her head on top of Larry's, closing her eyes. Her brother was special to her, he could be a bit flamboyant and old-fashion, but he was sweet. She smiled and nuzzled his cheek, deciding to show her loyalty to him, trusting that he would not take advantage of it. "And if my manager thinks one of my jobs is too iffy for me to do, I promise I won't argue it."

Tristam Lockhart Quote: Larry smiled at his sister as she leaned against him and offically announced him as her business manager. He was glad his sister had seen some sort of logic in his thoughts. "And I will not turn away jobs just because I do not want you kissing people. Only shall I reject a paying customer if I do not believe their intentions honorable," he responded in his own show of loyalty.

She peppered his cheek with kisses before she dragged him off into the next room. "Come on! We have to make a sign and prices and sample poems and so much other stuff!" [THE END]
