...Oh, she... didn't run off. Rory couldn't help but stand there for a few dumbfounded moments, just sort of... blinking. At her, at the flowers, at this situation in general. Most of the time, when he fell into encyclopedia mode, people got weirded out and just ended up kinda wandering away. Actually, it happened all of the time. Except for Natalia, who usually just called him a moron and carried on with whatever else she was doing, but Nat was special, Nat was different, Nat was an alien. So when a normal girl actually replied, with a smile, he wasn't sure what to do. Not at all. "Oh, yeah, it does, doesn't it?" he replied vaguely, with an equally vague smile. "And sorry. Again." Stupid, stop apologizing so much! The boy smiled as the girl continued about the Snowdrop Festival. He had never thought of flowers as being fun, but whatever. He wouldn't judge.

"I'm Rory," he introduced himself with a smile, noticing her shift slightly and taking it as an invitation to sit down. "Glad-iolus to meet you, Amanda," he joked as he sat, not even ashamed of the disastrously awful pun he had just told. It was like he was trying to chase her away or something! Not even missing a beat or making any indication that he found his pun anything less than delightful, he continued. "Are you a photographer or something?" That would explain the camera. And the picture talk.

Amanda smiled, "It's not a problem, I like learning new things it's fun sometimes!" Laughing at the somewhat lame pun she looked down at her camera, "Yes, I am a photographer or something. It's a lot of fun getting to explore all over the place and learn new things." Realizing that she sounded slightly like a ditz Amanda smiled and looked down. "How come you know so much about flowers? The only person who I know that is that knowledgable is my brother and because he's my brother, he usually doesn't share anything with me." Shifting slightly again, amanda picked up the camera again and focused in on a bird that had landed close by. After snapping the photo, the bird flew away as if it knew his posing was done. Looking down at the photo she smiled brightly at the near perfect shot. "Look at this!" Excited she shifted towards Rory and had the display set so you could see the most recent photo taken.

Rory smiled to himself and let out a soft, breathy chuckle. She certainly was upbeat, wasn't she? He liked optimists; something about their cheerfulness helped put his mind to ease. "Sounds it," he replied pleasantly. But then Amanda asked about why he knew so much about flowers. Oh yeah, he always forgot that most people didn't have mental encyclopedias. "My uncle got my a botany encyclopedia for my eleventh birthday. And I sort of have a bit of a photographic memory, so I remember a lot of it," he admitted sheepishly. It seemed so normal to him, to pull out information from a book he read years ago, but when he said it out loud, it sounded odd. He fell silent as she distracted herself with a bird. Rory waited until she moved over to show him the photo she had just taken. "Wow, that's pretty good," he remarked, impressed. "Have you ever had your work displayed, Amanda? Like, in a gallery?" he asked, looking at her expectantly. "I mean, I'm no art expert. I do work at an art museum, though. Even though, yeah, technically I applied thinking it was a history museum, but art has its history, too." What a strange thing it had been to show up only to find art, and only art, gracing the museum walls!

A little startled by the thought of giving an eleven year an encylopedia for their birthday she looked at him a little puzzled. "Isn't an encylopedia a bit of an intense gift at such a young age? It's awesome that you remember so much because of your memory, but I think something more outside friendly could have been a better gift." Thinking about past gift she realized she had recieved her first camera at eleven. "Alright, forget what I said. I got my first camera at eleven and that was probably a strange gift too." Smiling at his comment on her picture, Amanda was more cheerful instantly. "Thank you, I think I'm in the right place at the right time a lot so I get fantastic pictures." At his question, Amanda realized she hadn't explored the Island as much as she thought she had. "To be honest, I didn't even know there was a museum on Nirvani." Turning red she continued, "And I've been a magazine for a famous shoot that I did, but never in a museum. It's kinda a dream I hope to do so one day." Listening to Rory's comment on how art is history too she smiled "EXACTLY! Although not all art can be considered historic, some is really important to different time periods and it's annoying how people just disregard the history for the astetics of the art!" Realizing that she had gone on a tangent Amanda blushed and smiled shyly, "Sorry about that, I tend to have a lot to say about historic art."

Rory was silent as he listened to Amanda talk, a habit he had developed after being friends with Nat for so long. She usually dominated the conversation, so it was better that way. He listened to her talk with a smile and marveled at the coincidence of meeting someone who was so similar to himself. It was refreshing, to listen to someone with a clear passion in life speak, and even more so to hear her thoughts on art history. Because of his job, he had been spending a lot of time reading up on the subject, and it wasn't uninteresting. "No, I don't mind, it's interesting," he replied finally, with a smile. "You should really come by sometime. It's new, and not very big, but we have some good pieces. You'd probably like it." And it had been pretty empty around there, and he was bored. A guide didn't have much to do when there weren't people there!

Amanda smiled when Rory had said he hadn't minded her tangent. Letting out a sign she snapped another couple pictures of a variety of birds near them and some flowers. At his suggestion of going to visit the museum she smiled, "Now that I know someone who works there, I'll be sure to come in sometime. It would be fun to see what pieces you have there." Shifting the camera again Amanda showed him the photos she had just taken. It was nice to talk to someone new, and someone who knew so much about all sorts of things!

So she had won someone in the White Day auction huh? Who would've thought it was the mayor? Not that Ilya cared... since... she only really knew about him from the Wedding. Which made this awkward... right? Ah crap this was going to suck... That didn't stop her from looking fabulous of course~ A fashionable white buttoned down top with black trousers and heeled boots to go with it. She rocked it~ Probably not up to the man's standards but eh. They were supposed to think of something to do... Little did Ilya know, he would be a handful.

Could anyone really expect Gaston not to enter anywhere without going all out? Well, it seems like they would be a little off this time! The man, wearing a thick, fur coat of some white animal he hardly knew the name of, (a sort of bovine, whatever that could be), came into the snow-covered garden atop a reindeer, of all things! It wasn't pulling a sleigh or anything like that, the man only riding it like one would a horse. Was it a Florence? Oh, no, it was just one of those animals he had imported for some temporary enjoyment – somewhat like a toy than an actual respectful member of his family like a Florence was. Now, could Gaston actual ride an animal? Well, he thought he could. He didn't know the difference between actually riding an animal and having a servant walk the beast down the street with Gaston on it's back, really~

He looked over the few people oddly visiting the garden during it's cold season and quickly spotted his date~! With one swift kick to the poor reindeer, the servant tugged the animal over to where Ilya, the woman who won the wonderful date with Gaston~! He smiled dashingly at the woman below, who seemed to be.. oh, well, she was decently beautiful, nothing like his Lulu~! But, she was pretty enough and, besides, she had paid for Gaston's attentions! Of course she would appreciate him~! He stayed on the back of the reindeer, however, and simply stared at her from above – as it should be. “Ah, is it you, maiden, who has called me from my castle, away from my beloved's home so I may spend a day with yourself?” Yes, it was a castle now. The servants were too afraid to point it out as anything else just in case he asked them to tear down his mansion and make him a caste. By hand. In twenty minutes. ..It was sad to know that that wouldn't be far from what would actually happen if someone tried to tell him otherwise.

Mitsuke was still holding onto Parker's arm when they entered the garden. It was a gorgeous place, and she was glad she chose it. This was going to be a fun little date-thing! Or, at least it better be. She took her hand that wasn't holding his bicep and grabbed the bottle of wine out of her purse and held it delicately in her hand before stopping by a bench and sitting down. As she did so, she pulled the man down with her. She finally let go of his arm and popped open the bottle. "It's nice to meet you... er, what do you prefer I call you?" She turned her head to him and pulled out two small glasses from her massive shoplifting bag and sat one between them for him and placed the other between her knees for pouring. She filled it mostly to the brim and then sat the bottle behind the glass for him to get whatever he wished from it.

Parker had been a taken a bit off guard at meeting Mitsuki back at the bakery. He hadn't expected her to be attractive, nor had he been expecting to be grabbed and dragged off to the islands garden. Of course, Parker wasn't one to complain about a pretty little thing dragging him around, though he was thankful that she seemed to want to stay at the garden, at least for a bit. He let himself be man handled by her until the were sitting side by side on a quaint little bench.

He sat back, poured himself a glass of wine, he perferred hard liquor but wasn't about to be rude, and looked out at the garden before returning his attention to the charming brunette at his side. "Parker." He answered in that deep voice of his. Normally he would have stopped there, but she had paid pretty good money for this date so he decided to be uncharacteristically talkative. "It's very nice to meet you Mitsuki." There, that ought to do it. He took a drink of his wine, his eyes still on her.

Good job, Rory! Finding a potential customer, and plugging the museum like that~ He should get a bonus or something. Or at least a free lunch. Amanda seemed like the kind of girl who would actually show up, too! But he could pride himself over being a good employee some other day. "Good! I'll show you around too. And not just because it's my job," he joked, quite lamely. He looked at the photos Amanda showed him for a few more moments. She had some pretty good ones in there. Maybe he should invest in a camera? No, Natalia would surely break it right away. Well, then, he could just continue admiring others. After a while of looking at the pictures, he glanced down at his watch... and just about levitated in his seat. "Oh, crap, I'm late," he let out a sigh. He had just intended to pass through the garden, not to sit and talk. "I'm sorry, I have to run," he looked at Amanda apologetically. Argh, he felt like such a jerk!

[[ ooc: I know, I'm lame. ;w; But it's getting crowded in here. ]]

Mitsuke smiled, this guy was so gentlemanly~ at least more than she had been with in a long, long, long... okay, well ever. Parker, that was cute! Maybe she should go by her last name! My name's Rameri~! No, that didn't really roll off the tongue, nothing like Parker did! She took a large drink of her wine and smiled at him. It was honestly adorable how he was looking at her like that! She was glad her date was of legal age and actually attractive this year! Not that Ethan wouldn't be attractive in a few years... "Well, it's nice to meet you, too Parker." She continued smiling at him and gently ran her hand through her hair to pull it behind her ear. "Your new around here, right?" She figured it'd be easier to just talk about silly little nothings until something else came along to do. Perhaps they'd just sit around in the garden, even though that didn't sound all too exciting.

Spring 1st - Year 5!

After the talks about the mayor and his brothers organizing privates male only parties somewhere, Galdice had felt the rivalry raise in her and knew she just had to organized something for woman only! Classy woman! The polar oposite to what Gaston was doing god knows where! And what was better than a garden tea party to gather such fine women? Ah! Nothing. This would be fun! Gladice just loved tea parties, but she hadn't went to one in like, forever! Literally, ever since the character was created, she had never went to one. Gladice (right) and Judith (left) where the first ones to be there, but that was to be expected; they were the one organizing the party, after all. Or well, Gladice was. Judith was simply sitting there sipping on some tea. She wasnT' exactly sure as to why she was loosing her time like this, but both the old woman and Alanis had bothered her enough to accept to come. Alanis there too, trying to set the table as to make sure the wind didn't bring the napkins away. She had ended up discovering that by folding them like bunnies, they stayed in place! Ah! Everything would just be perfect~

_____________She walked among the lovely blooming flowers searching for the tea party she was invited to by an unknown woman. At least she had never met the woman in person. Aniela stopped in the middle of the pathway and lifted a letter into view. She skimmed over the words again and knew she was in the right place. She turned around in a full circle to find out where the host was to this gathering. Finally, she caught sight of a white table with three other females around it. That must be it. She put on a little smile, nervous of what these women would be like. Aniela hadn't been out in a formal gathering in so long. She walked over to the three women and waved to them.

"Hello," she said as she approached. "My name is Aniela Vanni. It's nice to meet all of you. Thank you for inviting me to this lovely tea party."

Mei practically SPRINTED to the garden, she was so excited about the prospect of a tea party. Finally! This was the day she had been working so hard for all of this time! The moment she received the invitation, she went rooting through her closet in search of the required items. If the invitation said that she should bring a hat and gloves, then she was going to bring a hat and gloves! ...They weren't exactly fancy, since the last time she had been to a tea party was when she was a small child, but she could make it work. She considered bringing the invitation with her, but she decided she didn't want to risk it. When she got home, she was going to frame it~

Anyway, the Chinese woman was glowingly ecstatic as she walked through the garden. All of these flowers made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside. This would be the best day ever, she was completely certain!

When she saw the table, she almost died. She was early, but... It was pretty! It was all too pretty! "Uhm... Hello," she greeted the three women by the table and a girl who looked like she had shown up just a little earlier than her.
