☆ → spring flowers

[ It's spring time! Madoka waited a whole week after the March weather change, to be sure that it wasn't going to snap back to winter. Then she counted up her savings, woke up early on Sunday, and headed out. ]

[ Action ☆ Flower Shop ]
[ Madoka can be found browsing the store in search of seeds, bulbs, and potted flowers she could transfer. She's holding a list of flower types that she feels she could look after reasonably and comparing the names and prices. ] Hm... I've never planted in America before... I hope that the weather will stay this nice. I wonder which flowers will grow best here... Where would I find vegetable seeds, I wonder...?

Um, good afternoon, everyone! I'm sorry to bother you all... I was just thinking that... well, it's spring! The weather is a bit warmer... and the flowers are beginning to bloom. I was thinking that it might be nice to begin planting some flowers... This is usually a good time, I think, since it's not too cold...

We could plant in the gardens outside our houses too, um... vegetable gardens, maybe... so if we can't buy from the stores again then we'd have some of our own food to rely on... It might take a while, but maybe it would be helpful...? I'd like to help out... and gardening, um, is something I'm a little bit good at? Just a little bit...

Th-though, I've actually never planted in Mayfield before... does anyone else like gardening? I wouldn't mind some tips... I really do want to be helpful.

Ara, that sounds like a lovely idea. I haven't done much gardening, but it sounds really sweet. Doing something of our own to make this place nicer.

Y, you really think so? I kind of hoped it would be... I'd like to make spring as nice as possible for everyone...

[swordwaitress]

Yes, indeed I do. It's a really sweet thing! Would you mind if I joined you?

Oh, I'd love that! If you'd like to, then I'd really love the company!

Oh yes, that would be lovely. [ Congratulations, you've just earned yourself a new big sister. ] Did you have a day in mind when you want to start planting?

[fatedmagica]

Huh? Well.. I haven't really thought about an exact day... I guess, whenever is easiest...? I don't want to trouble you anymore than I already am.

[swordwaitress]

Oh no, you're not causing any trouble at all. Some day after I get off work, maybe?

[fatedmagica]

That sounds good. Um, where do you work, by the way..?

At the restaurant. Should we meet there, or in the park, maybe?
