[It's Mother's Day, so Yuna can be found in a couple of places around town throughout the day today.]

1. [Yuna's out shopping for flowers.  She doesn't have a whole lot of money, but she's managed to save her allowances from Garviel for a few weeks and should at least have enough for a red rose and some carnations to spruce fill out the bouquet a little bit.  Feel free to bump into her while she's looking around at the selection, or perhaps you're the one selling the flowers to her.]

Hmm... I wonder how many I should get.  I wonder how many I can afford...

2. [Heading home, flowers in hand.  They're currently just wrapped up in some tissue paper, and she's cradling them very closely as she carries them along.  Every so often, she stops, sighs, and smiles wistfully up into the sky before continuing along on her way.]

Mother's Day already, huh...

3. [Once she's back home, Yuna immediately sets about finding an appropriate vase to put the flowers in.  She fills it up with some water, carefully lifting the flowers out of their wrapping and spending a few minutes arranging them tastefully - red rose in the middle, carnations surrounding it on the sides.  And then she takes the whole arrangement into the living room, setting it by the window where everyone can see it.  Anyone paying particular attention to her while she's doing this may catch her whispering at the very end while she looks up one last time into the sunny spring skies of Mayfield.]

...Happy Mother's Day, mom.

[Then she closes her eyes for just a moment to bow her head and smile before going about her business for the day.]

[Garviel watches her for a long time, his gray eyes gentle, then asks.]

You are remembering the fallen, then?

[Yuna didn't know anyone was watching, so when she turns around, she looks a little embarrassed.]

Huh? Oh... uh, yeah.

I have found that sharing the memories of those you have lost often... make you a bit happier. If you would like, I would listen to the story of the one you have lost.

[awkwardly here for the same secret reason, not that either of them know it yet, and happens to be looking at the same flowers]

-Oh, sorry, were you considering that one?

[Turning around and blinking.]

Oh... yeah! Do you like it?

It's very nice....[tilts her head at it, a somewhat distracted look in her eyes]...but I'm not quite sure if it's the best choice. Maybe I'm just being indecisive.

Well, red is traditional, you know.

It's my mom. She passed away when I was just a little girl. I don't remember too much about her, but she was really kind and loved my dad a lot.

But what if something like that doesn't quite fit what you had in mind? It's childish of me, but I want it to be perfect....

From: [identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com
Yeah, you're right. Maybe some pink ones, too.

Oh, so you're going to use different flowers? I was just going to try and decide on one type, myself.

From: [identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com
Well, I don't really have enough for more than one rose.

I could help with that, if it wouldn't be too rude of me.

Really? Are you sure?

[ Souji can't help but overhear her comments, standing next to her as he is mentally selecting a bouquet himself. ]

Giving flowers to someone special?

Yes, I am- honestly, my fake father gives me too much pocket money as it is. I feel embarrassed about it.

Well, as long as it's okay with you. I mean, I wouldn't want you to not have enough money for the flowers you were going to buy.

Ah... something like that!

Have you selected on an arrangement?

Date: 2011-05-09 01:24 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com
I was thinking roses and carnations.

Date: 2011-05-09 01:36 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] inababanchou.livejournal.com
That's a pretty arrangement. Are you bringing them in a vase?

[she waves a hand in a friendly yet dismissive way, brushing aside Yuna's words]

If it wasn't all right, I wouldn't have offered- trust me, I don't plan to buy that many anyway.

I am sure she would be proud of a daughter as brave as you.

I was just going to find something at home to put them in...

[A warm and genuinely thankful smile spreads across Yuna's face, and she nods happily.]

All right. Thanks so much! Oh, my name's Yuna, by the way.
