Flowers were hard to come by when it came to the dreary months of wintertime.
Lucky for the floral youma, Euphoria happened to wander her way onto the surface just in time to see humans alike scurrying around with their hands full of sweets, stuffed animals and - to her amazement - bundles upon bundles of flowers.
It was a pity that they'd killed as many as they had for something as trivial as a gift. Flowers smelled much better and lasted much longer when they remained in the ground but the silly people of Earth seemed to think that carting them around and offering them as presents was a better use for the poor dears.
Well, Euphoria happened to believe that a human was put to better use when they were starseed fodder, which is exactly what happened to poor Bruno Carlson, whose body now sat slowly growing rigid behind the bushes of the nearby park entrance.
Euphoria, on the other hand, was entertaining herself by entwining stems of Bruno Carlson's flower bouquet together to make herself a pretty little flower crown. She sat upon the bus stop bench, smiling to herself as she paused for a moment to sniff the bright, happy looking daisy that accompanied the babies breath and roses.
Yes. It was terribly unfortunate that flowers failed to grow this time of year but she'd happily managed to find a few, nevertheless.

“Well well, who have we here?”
He didn’t often see youma out and about, let alone a humanoid one braiding herself a flower crown on a bench.
A little white cat peered out from where she was tucked within his greatcoat. Bright green eyes flashing with an unfocused wonder.
“Ohhhh pretty! Flowers are delicious and she’s wonderful!” Churped the little cat.
“She is rather unique I agree” the man nodded to the cat. “Are you here under orders? Or simply here to enjoy the holiday?”

She hadn't caught the strength of the aura, no doubt in part to the furry assistant riding in the coat of the blue haired young man but as he approached closer and began speaking with the Mau, pale eyes lit up and she immediately straightened up where she sat.
"Sir!"
There was no way to curtsy in respect, not when she was sprawled out on the bench so the floral youma twisted until her legs dangled over the side, the flowers falling into her lap as she abandoned her project for the time being. She hadn't expected to be noticed by anyone of importance, especially not when she was lollygagging around.
Her nose wrinkled at the feline's comment, horrified at the notion that something would eat the precious little sweethearts she'd been busy trying to weave into a crown. Her displeasure remained unvoiced, however, as she dutifully pulled out the starseed she'd stolen only minutes earlier and offered it to the superior officer in front of her.
"Holiday? I don't understand."
She paused, then bowed her head and added.
"....sir."
(A holiday? What on earth were those?)

“It’s… a sentiment attached to a day.” He said after a moment’s thought. “Some… positive, others less so.” He waved his hands towards the flowers. “These… people give them to… people they care about in a variety of denominations.” “Most commonly for romantic reasons, or at the very least hope of intercourse.” “SHE SMELLS NICE!” the cat declared. and then to you. “Do you need pruning? Do you eat dirt? or just water?”

She listened patiently as the high commander explained what the holiday was - something... a day where humans gave each other flowers? How peculiar - not that she had room to complain, especially if everyone was celebrating the existence of flowers.
She reached down to pluck up the crown, fully prepared to hand it over to the blue haired man (because she supposed "caring" fell under the guidelines of "commanded by" and therefore she was obligated to give both her starseed and her flower crown to him) until he happened upon a curious word.
"Intercourse?"
It took a moment for the realization to register.
"Oh. Sex. I like sex."
Smiling, Euphoria seemed delighted with the change of conversation. "It's how I get a lot of my energy. The kind I take, that is."
She was very proud of herself and her clever, clever ways. Males were predictable things and when they saw something they wanted to take advantage of, they never bothered to think that maybe she was planning on taking advantage of them at the same time.
The smile faltered as the furry companion asked if she was a dirt-eater. Leaning down, she offered an unwoven flower out towards the beast, hoping to suggest an olive branch of sorts. "I like sugarwater, personally. Do you like sweet water?"

The General King turned a very distinct shade of pink where his face could be seen around his mask. “Er, yes, that.” He stammered, to the laughter of the small cat. “I think I know a Senshi you’d enjoy speaking to, strangely enough.” He admitted, the after thought of recalling the general opinion that youma had about Senshi making him backtrack. “I LOVE sweet water.” The cat declared. “Especially when its white, and fluffy and…” “Whipped cream…” The General Sovereign interjected. “She…likes whipped cream.”

Her nose wrinkled at the mention of a senshi and lips pursed to express her displeasure. "A senshi? Senshi are the enemy! Why on Metallia's Earth would I wish to speak to one??"
It was such a curious suggestion but Euphoria remembered her place, eyes widening slightly as she realized who she'd smarted off to.
"Sorry, sir. If you wish me to meet someone, I would be honored to make their acquaintance."
Forced, rather, but she kept those thoughts to herself before turning back to give the talking cat a quizzical look. "Fluffy water?"
The General-King corrected the Mauvian's statement but it did little to clear the confusion going on in the youma's expression. "Whipped cream? What is that?"

He looked amused at the expression on her face. He knew on a certain level that she’d react that way, but all the same it was amusing. “You do not have to, they are a…Senshi of chaos though, but I don’t imagine that will change your opinion of their nature. Don’t worry about it.” “WHIPPED CREAAMMMMM” Said the cat loud enough to earn a hand over her muzzle. “Miish-shwwwee-mun-dwiffuf!” She declared through the ‘offending’ hand as he sighed.

Euphoria rose from her bench, the flowers long forgotten as she stared at the curious exchange between General King and Mauvian. A well-placed hand was quick to silence the poor creature, who seemed more than excited about whatever this whipped cream magic seemed to be.
"I'd very much like to try some of this whipped cream, sir, if you have any."
Hopeful eyes looked up at the officer, before darting over to the cat who seemed to still be quite excited about the cream business. Was it really that good?

“Ah… mm… alright… give me a moment.” He glanced around and took a breath before handing her the cat that accompanied him. “…Best do this dressed a bit down.” He admitted. He stepped away towards some shadows before he shrugged off the trappings of power after a quick ‘feel’ to see if there was anyone likely to be within view that might report him. Stepping back out, casually despite Absinthe waving an enthusiastic paw at him, he headed towards the nearest shop likely to sell hot chocolate before returning to the same shadow, powering back up and coming back to stand next to the Youma and Absinthe. The cat looked like she had completely forgotten that she’d been traveling with him before. “OH! It’s been ages! Oh is that hot coco! Can I have some! Please ?? Please please yum?” She stood on her back legs and pressed her front paws together almost looking like she was in prayer as he freed one of three cups from a drink holder and handed it, first and foremost to Euphoria.

The youma stared, confused as the General King took his leave of their conversation, abandoning the small cat to the monster's presence. Her head tilted quizzically as he wandered off into the shadows, soon reappearing... as a normal human?
Huh?
The little Mau waved him off as he wandered away from their park bench and off towards the collection of small shops around the corner, Euphoria still very confused and intrigued as to what exactly the strong and powerful General King of the Negaverse was doing.
It took all of a few minutes for him to return, Euphoria entertaining herself in his absence by resuming her flower playing, as the mighty sovereign had declined her flower crown. It soon was fashioned to sit around the Mau's neck, the youma delighted in the color contrast of the happy flowers and the feline's coloring -- just in time for the master's return.
The cat immediately grew excited at the sight of whatever it was in the cups he was holding, Euphoria tentatively accepting the treasured present from the commander. No one... no one had ever given her a gift before, so she stared at it a little wide-eyed before bringing it up to her mouth, just as she'd seen the other humans do with their cups.
As the hot liquid touched her lips, she let out a soft cry from the startling burn on the edge of her mouth. Her free hand rose up to rub on it as the alarm subsided, the chocolate aftertaste lingering proving to be... well, both sweet and delightful, save for the heat.
Her second sip was more careful than the first, the youma now prepared for the temperature of the offered drink. Little white stuff dotted the top of the brown, both tasting especially sweet and yummy.... it was no wonder why the cat was so excited to see the cups!
"This is... whipped cream? I think I very much like whipped cream too!"
endejester she's such a twit, I'm sorry

“Whipped cream, and hot chocolate.” He said setting a cup before the cat and admonishing her to be careful because it was hot, and tippy.” She dipped her paw in with abundant enthusiasm before hissing and pulling it back to lick at her paw, half mumbling curses and growls but purring at the taste. “If you take the lid off, it will cool down a little faster too.” He offered peeling the lid off the third cup and letting a gust of steam out into the evening air. He hooked a finger over the fabric mask and pulled it down so that he could blow gently over the surface of his own drink, sending a further waft of steam into the night. “If you blow on it, that will help too.” He added. “Same for you Abby, it’s no good if you burn your paws and get all sticky.”

She watched with curious interest as the cat used its little furry hand to reach into the drink, immediately regretting the action with a nasty sounding noise. She followed up by licking the drink from off of her paw - though Euphoria guessed that little kittens had no other way to drink, not without thumbs like she and the great General-King had.
Her attention switched over towards the man, eyes wide and focused on how he tugged down his mask and blew on the drink. Little wisps of steam blew out like a cloud of magic, catching her interest as he then sipped on the... chocolate, as he called it.
Obediently, she leaned her head down to mimic as he had, blowing onto the drink after prying the lid from the cup. Little magic smoke flew from hers as well, making her feel especially giddy as she sipped on the hot drink, savoring the sweet flavor.
"Thank you very much, sir -- this tastes almost as good as starseeds!!!"

That earned an amused laugh from the General Sovereign. “High praise indeed, it’s one of my preferred little shops. “ “Ah Absinthe… good lord here.” He took two of the lids and spun them so that neither of them had a true ‘opening’ to sip through, it was a small blessing that this shop had lids that could have this done, he poured some of the hot chocolate into the lid, and then, wincing a little where the hot beverage met metal finger, brushed some of the whipped cream onto the shallow ‘dish’, it seemed to delight the cat whom crouched and happily lapped, purring and repeating ‘num num num’ as she lapped. He, in turn took a careful ‘seat’ by leaning half on and half off the bench and staring around them. “A good evening.” He remarked, a simple statement to plug up the silence.
