A Home for Flowers
WHO: Mari and Kel
WHAT: Planting flowers all around the place
WHERE: Oasis related stuff
WHEN: Some time before the crossing
WARNINGS None I can think about
Flowers and plants always had some kind of special meaning for the friend group both Kel and Mari had been part of.
The first day Hero and Kel met Sunny and Mari? His family was bringing them a cactus as a welcome gift- a small prickly pear plant that, for the little the teen managed to see, somehow survived all those years. A plant was the Alvarez's family's way to say 'welcome, neighbor'.
When Aubrey joined their group, one of the first activities they did together, from Kel's memory, was cleaning her house's garden. The girl's mom was already not exactly... dependable. And while Aubrey never truly let anyone inside, she allowed them to help her prepare the ourside of her house for spring.
And then there was Basil. Oh, sweet Basil Kel had so many conflicting feelings about after the incident. Setting those aside, the boy had been one who shown the whole group how plants could be amazing. Kel couldn't forget about him, nor the countless time the friends just say down listening to the other chatter about his flowers and their meanings. Once Basil even told Kel he was like a 'Cereus', whatever that meant... and Kel had to admit he regretted not learning a bit more. Gods, he missed those days.
Still, today was all about Mari and Marigolds, not about how much he missed his early childhood- with flowers in a basket, he hopped in front of Mari with a big grin plastered on his face. Their mission was to spead flowers around the place and, well, He didn't mind bringing some orange out around the place. Marigolds were the BEST, not only they were originally from Mexico- the place where Kel's family was from, but they all had the best colors! In a certain sense, the best flower he coudl associate with.
"Sooo, we ready to act like beautiful, lovely maidens from fairytales and decorate this place a bit more?"
He was even wearing an colorful apron that came straight from the 50s or was originally part of some cosplay set. Who knows. All for an extra chuckle. It wasnt much to do, really, but at the same time Kel wanted to take that to... well, spending his time with his own thoughts. And he did love Mari's company, too…
