Oh! That would be so lovely. You'll have to show me what the finished project looks like.

[jiaohua]

Sure, if you'd like.

[examining the stickers again...]

Which of these do you like most?

[florescences]

That's hard to choose... I love all of them. They all provide a different aesthetic.

[jiaohua]

Which one draws your attention first, then?

[florescences]

[ she nods to the flowers, too.

they're both flower girls. ]

[jiaohua]

[fair enough.]

I see. I'll remember that.

[maybe she'll just do one of each...]

[florescences]

I'm easy to please. As long as it's cute, I'll love it.

[jiaohua]

[waner smiles.]

That's good to know.

[florescences]

What about you, Waner? What's your aesthetic?

[jiaohua]

Pastel colors and florals, I suppose.

[florescences]

Those both suit you very much.

[ but that also tracks with what she wears and all her accessories. ]

[jiaohua]

My mother always said so.

[and, well. she was right!]

[florescences]

What else has your mother said about you?

[jiaohua]

Eh? The usual things.

[florescences]

[ ? ]

I don't know what those are.

[jiaohua]

[ ? ]

Well, most mothers tell their daughters that they are beautiful and advise them on how to get ahead in life, don't they?

[florescences]

[ she smiles. ]

I do think that could be true, but I grew up in an orphanage.

[jiaohua]

...oh. My apologies.

[florescences]

[ she waves a hand. ]

Don't worry. It's nothing to feel sorry about. I love the people I grew up with.

[jiaohua]

They likely told you many of the same things my mother told me, then.

[florescences]

Wouldn't that be lovely if that were so?

[ she was not left wanting for love in the orphanage. she just thinks it's likely a different experience than what waner grew up with. ]

[jiaohua]

What sorts of things did they tell you about yourself?

[florescences]

All things that I knew I was cared for.

[jiaohua]

...what was it like, living there?

[florescences]

Lovely. I had everything I needed. They taught me to read and write and gave me storybooks for my free time.
