A "Hypothetical" Question; VIDEO/ACTION
VIDEO
[Terra is sitting in her greenhouse when the video starts. Flowers climb up the back wall with buds peeking out towards the bright sunlight that filters through the misty glass. Her hair is down, falling in loose mint green curls around her shoulders. She looks thoughtful as she regards her phone.]
I have a question. It’s just something I’ve been thinking about…
…
People can't die here and hurting them doesn't make us feel better... what does it take to forgive someone? What do they need to do when they've done something really bad?
[As the video continues there is a flash of white fur before the phone falls on its front; turning the screen black.]
Howl!
[Terra’s disapproving voice echoes through the phone before the feed ends. She hopes someone might reply to her question, despite her cat’s interruption.]
ACTION: BAR
[Terra decides to take a walk to be alone with her thoughts. She spends most of her time at her flower shop and while it’s usually quite her pets or visitors have the tendency to distract her. As she makes her way through the city she starts checking out different businesses and stores. A few of them she peeks into and immediately leaves. That’s what she should have done at this bar.
The atmosphere is smoky but warm, it’s curious, and without hesitation she makes her way to the line of bar stools to take a seat. The bartender regards her seriously for a moment before ignoring her. She looks both lost and unsure; neither are traits he wants to deal with.
Terra’s gaze moves around the room. She makes eye contact with a few people staring at her though their eyes quickly dart away. It doesn’t bother her but she wonders if she looks that out of place. Her dress is red and short. It’s the closest thing to the dress she’d woken up with and her sandals were light brown. It is too hot to wear more though she’s noticed that most of the men in the bar are wearing pants instead of shorts. She can’t see how she might be out of place.
She turns back to the bartender.] Excuse me? [The soft voice does nothing to get his attention.]
RANDOM: FLOWER SHOP EMPLOYEES
[Terra has declared it employee day in her two shops. Everyone working or not will get a surprise flower delivery at their house! In it will have a small bag of candies and a little note thanking you for all of your help. Jefferson and Dave will get separate ones, despite the fact that they live together and each flower arrangement is different.]

[video]-> Action
[Terra has been spending a lot of time on her phone today which is unusual. This puts her at the back of the shop with her phone resting at her side. She has a few books out in front of her as she handles the financial side of the business.
The front of the store is filled with flowers and behind each new bud there is a silent promise for something more. Terra's been thinking about getting a cat for this location though she has yet to have a talk with those who live here about it.]
no subject
But she's glad she did. All the flowers, all the colors, all the scents...! She smiles, stopping to smell some of the flowers as she walks further in, looking for Terra.
She did come here because of Terra, after all. To stop in and leave without saying anything would be rude.]
...Terra? [She grips the ends of her sleeves.] I'm... Um, I'm not interrupting you, am I?
no subject
No. It's nice to see you.
What do you think of the store?
no subject
[And she really means that.]
It's nice.. And very well set up, having the flowers taking center stage. As it should be. And it's both intimate and open.
[She stops herself there, not wanting to ramble or thinking Terra doesn't want to hear her ramble. Instead she (obviously) puts her focus on the flowers nearby.]
no subject
[Terra smiles warmly at the girl. She's met many people while here but she's always the happiest when she meets others who love flowers.]
Anything stand out to you?
no subject
Um.. Most everything in here?
[Keeping it vague to see if that will work in her favor.]
no subject
[It's her job after all.]
no subject
[Otherwise she's not saying anything and just going to put money down on the counter before taking flowers. There's no way she's not paying this time.]
no subject
Of course.
no subject
no subject
Of course.
no subject
[And then she wanders off, perusing through the aisles and smelling various flowers. She's thinking about what will not only look pretty in her apartment, but what will also look good in a pressed flower arrangement that she can sell.
After about thirty minutes, she returns to the counter with a colorful assortment of various flowers: dahlia, delphinium, heather, gladiolus, etc...]
Um, I found some I liked..
