Ikebana had two hours to kill, and he wasn't sure how to kill them.
He had come to the market with his mother, who still needed to shop and do... whatever it was that mothers did. For himself, he meant to go to the same flower cart he always visited in the market, pick out a few nice blooms, and relax to do an arrangement. Today, however, none of the flowers were speaking to him. It was cold and blustery, as February should be, so it was of no surprise that the flower stand had very few interesting blossoms. Still, Ikebana usually succeeded in finding one or two things that sprung his inspiration, but not today.
With a sigh, he trotted back, taking a look around himself for anything interesting. His eye followed a few phonies, trying to ascertain if he had any acquaintances nearby to chat with, pass the time, maybe even stop into a cafe with...

Chocolate Orchid was also in the marketplace, although for slightly different reasons.
While he had also come with his mom to the market, their trip had just been for groceries for the bakery, a quick trip that was easily completed. In fact, Mama had left long ago with the items and Orchid had decided to stick around, a rarity for the shy phony to do. For awhile, he had simply been wandering, staring at the shops here and there and thinking of recipes but now, he was watching the crowd and searching for a familiar phony to talk to, which admittedly were few and far apart. However, his eye caught a familiar looking golden phony, whom who seemed to be gazing at someone else. What a perfect opportunity! Taking a minute to gather his courage, Orchid slowly approached Ikebana.
"H-Hi Ikebana." He said, trying an awkward smile.

"Excellent," said Ikebana with a grin, gesturing toward the cafe with his head as he walked with the other phony. He listened to Chocolate Orchid's words, wondering to himself if the colt's stammer was a speech impediment or an affectation caused by his shyness. Consequently, it took him an extra moment to answer, giving him the appearance of thought. He pressed open the cafe door and lead the other colt inside.
"It is always nice, and I'm glad you saw me! I thought I saw someone I knew before I saw you, but I was wrong. Just looked like them from afar," Ikebana said, finding an empty table for two and sitting down in one chair. He looked around himself at the other phonies in the cafe. His eyes lingered on one particular filly. "Although, actually... I do know that filly back there, the pink one. We are in the same art class."

The question took Ikebana quite by surprise. Unless -- maybe Chocolate Orchid was making sure that the way was clear for him, just in case? After all, he seemed a timid sort, and not the type who would want to step on any toes...
But, that didn't seem to make all that much sense, either. He had just seen her for the first time...
Ikebana looked back at Funny Valentine for a moment, and then at Chocolate Orchid, somewhat at a loss. Well, he might as well be honest, one way or another.
"Uhm," he said. "She is very nice, but I do not know her that well, really. I -- I'm sure she'd make a great friend? If-- you are interested, that is."
