Who: YOU, MY FRIEND & The friendly staff of Thistle Do Nicely, a humble flower shop.
When: IC: 29th January to February 14th (OOC: Starts 3rd July, full month log.)
Where: Thistle Do Nicely, Shopping District.
What: It's nearly Valentine's Day, so there's sales and events! Want to learn how to make chocolate? Look here! Cashing in your coupon for the upcoming Blind Date player event? That's here too! This is a mingle log, so everyone come mingle to your hearts content, and come in anytime, there's no such thing as late.
Rating/Warning: Nothing so far. There might be some future nightmares.
NOTE: There are some forward-dated prompts/part of prompts in this log. This is to coincide with the Blind Date Player Plot this month! More links and updates will be posted here once they come up.
Also if you wanna know how this works, it's just a mingle! An example here, our previous open mingle log. Treat it however you like, open and closed options welcome.
--------
Welcome to Thistle Do Nicely! Make yourself comfortable and browse the grand selection. In spirit of upcoming Valentine's Day, the store is decorated in pink and red, hearts scattered here and there. Sweet soft toys are on display, and there are bargains to be found. The tea shop is also decked out, but there seems to be something extra special happening on that side too.
A: ROSES ARE RED, VIOLETS ARE DISCOUNTED
[Are you here for the flowers? Sure you are, it's a grand tradition that all Valentines must share: the giving of flowers to loved ones. Roses are a definite favourite, but maybe you're after something more unique? Then look no further! Ask one of your friendly staff about it. Or maybe they're coming to you! But if they do, some may have the misfortunate of being told by the mysterious NPC boss to repeat the following: "What can Cupid's assistant do for you today?" Yeah, it's pretty embarrassing.
Or maybe you've bumped into a friend! In that case, buying flowers for Valentine's Day? Are you proud of this, or are you so embarrassed you must hide all evidence.
Alternatively, time has passed and you're now here because you have coupons for an additional price cut on your flowers if you are taking part in the Blind Date event. Blind dates can be particularly nerve-wracking, so let this store make things a little easier for you. You'll thank them for it.]
B: ANYONE WHO HATES CHOCOLATE IS A MONSTER (no we're kidding we still love you)
B.1: KITCHEN NIGHTMARES
[In all walks of life, chocolate is a very popular gift for Valentine's Day. And in some places, even more importance is placed on whether it's homemade or not. A section of the tea shop has been cleared just for this: earthy tables now have small stoves on them and ingredients set out. It's time to learn how to make chocolate. These classes are lead by head chef Shokudaikiri Mitsutada and his (reluctant) chef's assistant Ookurikara, but you can be sure that all the other reliable staff of Thistle Do Nicely are getting in on the action to help out (or learn themselves) too! Maybe Mitsutada and a handful of staff will make this great. The other half...
Everyone interested in these classes will gather round each of these tables, and together you will learn how to make chocolate. It's a team effort, so discuss with each other and work together to perfect it! In the end, you will be given cute little boxes or bags to put your chocolate in so you can give it to those intended. Or yourself, you can eat them too. Alternatively, you were forced into this mess, or have no idea why you're here but you're going to roll with it because it's chocolate.
The classes are free, happening a couple hours a day, but the ingredients require a small donation to keep the classes going. These classes are ongoing, so by the time you've gotten your Blind Date, you don't have to donate if you show them your coupon.]
B.2 CHOCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS
[Or maybe you're not here for the classes, you're spending time on the other half of the tea shop where it's still set for customers. The tea shop half of the entire store is not actually that big, so you might be finding it a bit cramped.
That being said, a treats bar has been set out as a complimentary offer. There's a chocolate fountain in the middle of this bar, and you know you wanna dip some heart shaped marshmallows or fruits in that sucker. There's also these flower shaped gummies. No one actually knows how they got there, but maybe for the sake of science, you want to coat it with chocolate and eat it.
Do it.]
C: WILDCARD.
[Because there's so much more to explore! Or maybe you're just here to visit and laugh at them. Or maybe you wanna use the tea space as a PLACE FOR A DATE, AYYYYYY in which the scene from Lady and the Tramp could happen and there will be a cute musical number (look, I'll have it arranged, I'm not even kidding. Too bad I can't get an Okiayu character to do it though, you might have to make do with a loser girl). Or maybe you've MESSED UP THIS ENTIRE PLACE Vietnam will kill you with her bare hands (unless she likes you, then you will live).]

no subject
I-I guess some courtship might be necessary.
[Well, he gathers human servants usually need to...be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth, and that probably has to start at some point. Perhaps this lady's sister is of the same opinion?]
Is it proper, though?
no subject
Well, you're not wrong, it can be necessary and especially when you need a kid. But it is proper, it's all about love isn't it?
I mean, t-that's the other reason why you would have a kid right?
[Although, there was a hint of red on her if he looked carefully.]
no subject
He could say that some humans kind of have kids by accident, but that would lead their conversation toward other particularly terrifying directions, and Kevin would much rather not go there.]
I- I am not quite certain if I know that much about that sort of love, madam. [Oh no, did he just out himself?] ...I mean, I still studied it enough to sell flowers at Valentine's!
[He hopes he doesn't get fired for being a dark pit of romance void. He watched couples, after all. He even took notes!]
no subject
He didn't know about that kind of love? Well then...!]
Then that's okay! It just means I need to teach you about it! There are many differnt kinds of love but you don't know a thing about romantic attraction! And I'm the girl who can help you and probably make you sell even more flowers if you want!
[Anna, what are you doing?]
no subject
T-teach me about it?
[Some young ladies should come with a danger warning. But...selling more flowers sounds like a splendid idea. The more money he can make, the better, right?]
How is that possible, madam?
[Questions he should never have asked...]
no subject
Of course! Romance isn't an easy concept and it can be quite difficult if you don't know what you're doing! The first thing you should do is to read a lot of romance novels!
Girls love the idea of someone would be able to take them off their feet! Like a knight in shining armor! Oh, oh! Maybe that can be something you can do! Or advertise it or something!
[She totally knows what she's doing okay!]
no subject
[The romances Kevin has read lately, alas, are very much about ladies falling for people like Mister Darcy and Heathcliff. Ah, so that is the secret of romance.
Ladies like jerks.]
Isn't that a little too harsh? [And now that she mentioned knights in shining armor.] Ah, huh, did not Sir Lancelot betray his king?
no subject
What you mean? Aren't princes suppose to be kind, generous, and forgiving?
[Hmmm...]
Well, I suppose so but Sir Lancelot was a weird one so he doesn't count! Most princes aren't like that and wouldn’t ever try to hurt someone.
[Hans doesn’t count either]
no subject
Ah, they are always kind, generous, and forgiving in fairytales, aren't they? I have always wondered why.
[As the Angel of Repentance, he has not always been kind and generous, and it was not after a few billion years that a certain king taught him about forgiveness. He thinks that fairytale princes have it easy, but that is probably not a bad thing either, is it?]
The world would be quite peaceful, wouldn't it? If humans could always be like that.
no subject
...It would but that's why fairytales and other stories like those exists! To teach people that doing bad things are bad and doing good things are good!
[As she gave a pause, her thoughts immediately went back to Hans. When she bit her bottom lip, her face grew somber but chuckling to herself.]
Of course, there are still bad people who don't listen but they still get what they deserve. And that all the horrible things they did will catch up to them.
no subject
[They were talking about romance, but now Kevin sounds a little like a gangster asking for details on an unfortunate fellow he ought to put to sleep with the fish. Oh well...Old habits die hard. But back to Miss Anna, she always seems like she is thinking about someone, doesn't she?]
no subject
Well...y-yeah, I do. He wasn't that great of a person and he definitely did a lot of horrible things.
[And judging from her reaction, she wasn't even sure how to talk about it. As she hugged herself, she couldn't help but give a hollow chuckle]
It's kind of funny though. I mean, if it weren't for him either, I don't think I would have ever met my real true prince either.
[In the form of a weirdo loner]
