[luthir]

You were courageous. It came shining through you like light. [ he scoops up her hand in his, settling beside her, with one leg hanging off the bed, and plants a kiss on the back of it ]

[graveflowers]

Pretty sure that was my abject terror or sunburn. [ hope you didn't forget how hard it is to compliment her... ] So you finally brought me flowers.

[luthir]

Hopefully enough to make up for all the times I did not.

[graveflowers]

Uh, I think you made up for the next ten years, actually. [ she glances around at all the flowers and smiles softly, shoulders drooping with a content sigh as she leans back against the pillows. february 14th, it seems, it always going to be a good day. ] You know half these flowers are poisonous, right?

[luthir]

Were you planning on eating them? I thought we might go out for dinner.

[graveflowers]

[ WELL YOU'VE GOT HER THERE. ] Out? Like, out out. Out in civilization for something that has nothing to do with Italian assassins and prophecies and... anything involving spiders?

[luthir]

Well, I suppose now I'll have to cancel the spiders, but yes. That's the idea.

[graveflowers]

Oh, that's cute. [ she makes a face and pulls the pillow from behind her head to throw at him. ] But yes, I think I'd like that.

[ she's got to wear those pretty clothes she and elena bought way back in july... ]

[luthir]

Well, we do have some time before dinner.

[graveflowers]

For what, spider wrangling? [ she's a laugh and a half. ]

[luthir]

For what you will.

[graveflowers]

Well. [ she does a little thinking... ] I have a Skype date planned with Felicity because I miss her deep in the depths of my melodramatic soul. We'll probably talk about you. And I have to get, like, pretty or something. But really, I am open to suggestions on what we can do between all of that.

[luthir]

[ he raises an eyebrow at the fact that she already has a valentine's date DOES HE NEED TO BE WORRIED HERE, but accepts it with a little smile and nods ] We might go for a walk in the park, if it weren't so cold. Or we could stay in, and enjoy the... flowers. I thought bringing spring to you might-- Be a welcome respite.

[graveflowers]

[ it's felicity. he'd need to be worried about that like he'd need to be worried about her having a date with finnick. her boos are lamps. lamps.

her nose wrinkles a little at the mention of the cold. she hates winter, man, she really wants to go to the park. :( ] It is. I miss spring. [ she reaches over to grab a pretty pink and white flower and wave it enticingly at luthir. ] Did you know that orchids are considered an aphrodisiac?

[luthir]

[ a playful spark comes to his eyes as they follow the flower, then look past it to her. ] A happy coincidence. [ OR IS IT ]

[graveflowers]

If you're trying to seduce me, Luthir, you really didn't need to try that hard. [ really. "hey vi, wanna bang?" would have worked just as well. ]

[luthir]

Are you saying you don't like it?

[graveflowers]

No, no, I like it. I'm just saying you don't have to put this much effort in. [ a beat. ] Unless you want, I guess.

[luthir]

That was rather the idea.

[graveflowers]

Oh. [ okay, she is being seduced. she can do this. ] Well, have at it then. Seduce me, elf.

[luthir]

I must admit, you make it very difficult to concentrate on doing so, saying such things. [ he raises one hand to her cheek, sliding in back into her hair with a smile ]

[graveflowers]

I hope you're not surprised about that after a year. [ your gf is a hot mess, bb. SURPRISE! ]

[luthir]

Perhaps I enjoy being continuously stymied so.

[graveflowers]

[ she grins a little and tries to tamp down on it like she is so blasé, but no. ] I must be the perfect girl for you in that case.

[luthir]

Oh, I can certainly vouch for that.
