i don't know and flayn doesn't know, which means after the execution, it's time to play ... hide-and-seek! when she does happen to find him wherever he may be, she calls out to him in greeting.]
[Cute. Very cute. This should, perhaps, be the part where she yells at him for cheating on Wen Ning, but that isn't happening. Instead, she just looks pleased to see him grinning.]
[UNTIL HE ASKS THAT QUESTION because even though he's asking about how she's doing aside from the execution, it is nearly impossible to get that sight out of her mind.
Her face falls, but she tries to smile. It doesn't come out quite right so she puts a hand up to cover her mouth, as if in a thoughtful expression.]
...I have been keeping busy. My cooking is getting much better than it was! [...] And what have you been up to?
[...Sanji. Flayn's face falls, too, and she looks down, silent for a few long moments.]
I am... sure he would have been able to teach you more, but I know a little of flower language - at least as it applies to the meanings in my homeland. Would you like me to teach you...?
It is - there are a lot of flowers, and the meanings change from region to region. I am familiar with the meanings in my homeland, if you would like some additional assistance in learning...?

i don't know and flayn doesn't know, which means after the execution, it's time to play ... hide-and-seek! when she does happen to find him wherever he may be, she calls out to him in greeting.]
...Anaido, there you are.

[He reacts, like its instinct - but his cheerful expression immediately falls to something a little awkward.]
Ah, sorry. [He nods at Flayn, gazing, self-conscious, down at the ground for a moment.] What's up?
no subject
[she doesn't really know what to talk about.]
Ah - were you able to capture that chicken, in the end?
no subject
[For thinking of him.]
Oh, the chicken? No, not yet...but I'll go to Lili this week and ask her for tips, so! It will happen this week, for sure.
no subject
Um - if I may ask... who were you attempting to catch it for?
no subject
[He shrugs.]
I was just asking around, and Wei Wuxian said that chickens are a really good gift where he comes from, so I was a bit inspired.
no subject
flayn smiles.]
I think they would like that very much. Do not worry! I am sure you shall manage to catch a chicken, and Black Shadows will be delighted with it.
no subject
[Look at him, grinning like a dumbass.]
Anyways, Flayn, enough about me! Tell me about you! How have you been? Besides the...you know.
[The execution.]

no subject
[There's a smile on his face, for a moment, like he's going to say something bright and hammy as he always does...]
[But it falls, like a mask.]
...I don't know. [The circles under his eyes seem so much more prominent, now.] To tell you the truth...I don't know. I'm just tired, Flayn.
no subject
That's honestly relatable.]
...Anaido...
[She bites her lip, then holds out her hand to him. Nothing to hesitate over here, she can lead him along! God, timelines.]
Would you join me in finding somewhere peaceful to sit for a little while?
no subject
[He'll take her hand easily, giving it a squeeze as he shoots her an attempt at a reassuring smile.]
Any ideas? The gardens are nice, I think.
no subject
[she tries to smile back - then leads him along.]
...are there any flowers you are particularly fond of?
no subject
[Of course he'd like that.]
Roses are real romantic, too.
no subject
Do you prefer to give flowers, or to receive them?
no subject
no subject
Do you know much about flower language, Anaido?
no subject
[His face falls a little. Sanji...]
no subject
I am... sure he would have been able to teach you more, but I know a little of flower language - at least as it applies to the meanings in my homeland. Would you like me to teach you...?
no subject
[The more knowledge, the better.]
I always like listening to you, anyways.
