Flower PSA

[glazedonutholes]

[ The recording opens with Donut standing in front of his bed that's currently covered in an ocean of flower petals. Beside him stands a decorated bike that holds a few bouquets. ]

Hey guys! Private Donut here from the popular Bluehaus with another friendly PSA. 

As you all know, it's February and that means love is in the air! For those of you unfamiliar with Earth lingo, this is the month we celebrate a little thing called Valentine's Day! It's a day when a guy in a diaper named Cupid hits you with an arrow and BAM! Instant love at first sight! Isn't it great?! 

[ He vibrates with giddy delight. ]

Well! I've been hard at work collecting all sorts of seeds in anticipation and now it's time for all of them to bloom! As your friendly neighborhood Flower God, I'll be making fresh bouquets for anyone who wants them! And this month only [ he throws his hands out to show off the bike - TADA! ] - 
I'll be making home deliveries!

You just tell me what you'd like and [he starts reciting the postal service motto ] neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays this Flower God from swift delivery! I got all sorts of bouquets for all tastes! There's your friendship ones, your first date ones, pure love, wild love, going steady, and all sorts of other ones for every occasion! 

So... [ Here he rocks back on his heels, his hands behind his back. ] I was thinking, if any of you have a little time to spare next month, maybe you can help me set-up a real flower shop and help me move-in upstairs? You know what they say, it takes a village. 

[ He keeps rocking back and forth on his heels, buzzing with so many vibrant emotions they spill over and behind him the larkspur flowers start to bloom. Reds and blues. Purples. Whites. A whole rainbow of colors come to life. ]

Either way, I love Valentine's Day, so I'd do this for free! [ He smiles before remembering - ] I'll be accepting orders all month! 

[ He waves at the recording. ] 

Happy Hearts!

[ He grins. He accepts your challenge! ]

A list of names and your feelings for them to pick out just the right boquet~

[deviledlegs]

[Sanji hasn't even spoken to a great many of the women of Hadriel. He will still be able to compile a complete list of their names because love trumps all. Naturally, the feelings coupled with each of those names will be "LOVE" in all caps. Occasionally repeated several times, just for good measure.]

You'll have it this afternoon!

[glazedonutholes]

Today?! But I can't bike that far! Take pity on my poor glutes!

[deviledlegs]

What? No! [BLASPHEMY!] On the fourteenth! It has to be the fourteenth! I'll get you the names today. You deliver on the day of love! The smiles on their faces when they wake up on Valentine's will fuel your glutes to the moon and back!

[glazedonutholes]

Ooooh~

Why didn't you say so. For a minute there I thought I was gonna die just thinking about all the places I'd have to go. But don't worry! On the 14th I'll be just like Santa! Teleporting via heavenly magic to smother the hearts of everyone on this special day of the year!

Great! But I'll need your special feelings for each so I know what bouquet to make for them. I can't make the same bouquet for all of them. That would just be cheap and there's no cheap feelings in this shop!

[deviledlegs]

[Is that... Is that sarcasm? Yes? No? Normally he'd be able to tell, but it doesn't feel right coming from Donut. Not even in video. Sanji squints at his phone a moment before letting loose a decisive snort.

Sarcasm or not, Sanji accepts this challenge. He's more motivated than ever.]

MY LOVE IS NEVER CHEAP!

[glazedonutholes]

Great! I never doubted you for a minute!

[ Except you just did right now. ]

I'll be waiting for your list~

[ ooc; jfc you are amazing! ]

These are beautiful! It's like poetry in motion!

I'll get started all of these right away!

[deviledlegs]

Because nothing is more striking than love!

As long as you spread that love and adoration to all the ladies of Hadriel, I suppose I can forgive your shitty doubts.

[Kyna has never spoken to this dude in her life, but whatever. She's going to screw with him anyway.]

If I don't get my favorite flowers and an awesome personalized message, I'm going to tell everyone in the city you're a big fake.

[deviledlegs]

[Ah! A goddess has descended upon his phone!]

I could never disappoint such a divine countenance! Aphrodite herself will be jealous of the earth-shattering love being poured into your gift! From my arrow-stricken heart to yours!

[evocation]

[She snorts.]

Divine countenance, huh? Is that all it takes to get you "arrow-stricken"?

[deviledlegs]

Allure is no small feat, and love strikes us all with reckless abandon! Just one look is all it took! I'm a slave to your beauty! Just to hear the name of the heavenly host before me would be a dream come true!

[evocation]

[Now she's snickering. This dude is very over the top.]

Uh, I'm Kyna.

[deviledlegs]

[He's so over the top, he's in outer space. In fact, he's hugging himself right now. Just. Arms wrapped around his chest as he rocks side to side.]

Aaaaah~ Miss Kyna! You're the very first Kyna this humble pirate has ever met. Such a sharp, confident name; it bounces right off the tongue on its own!

[evocation]

Cute.

[Kyna seems a little bewildered, but mostly amused.]

Does this ever, like... work for you?

[deviledlegs]

Work? This isn't work, Miss Kyna! It's love!

[No. No, it doesn't. That doesn't stop him.]
