"Then make something up! Your senior is asking you a question, Kaveh," Faruzan teased.

Kaveh sighed. "I'm not a student, Madame. But if you insist…"

Kaveh pulled out a book documenting flowers and started pointing to various plants. He started assigning random meanings, though occasionally he would remember an actual meaning and explain it as well. But otherwise, he just had fun with it.

Faruzan sat close to him, and eventually rested her head on his shoulder. When Kaveh stopped on a specific page, she pointed to the flower displayed there. "And this one?" 

Kaveh looked it over. "One of Liyue's silk flowers. They represent…" Kaveh trailed off, a flush creeping up his neck. 

Faruzan raised an eyebrow. "Come now, Kaveh, you can't fail you assignment so close to the end!"

Kaveh swallowed, then returned to the page. "Well, locals say that gifting a bouquet of silk flowers is the ultimate display of… love."

He could feel Faruzan grinning at him as he flushed. He cleared his throat before he resumed speaking.

"Is that all, Madame Faruzan?"

"Oh, drop the title now, Kaveh. Yes, you're done. That was adorable."

"Embarrassing."

"You're cute when you blush."

"I look sunburnt."

"Mhm, sure." She pressed a gentle kiss to his cheek. "Anyway, I'm headed off to Liyue for a few days, and now you're prepared for you gift when I get back."

"Wait, what? Faruzan?" Kaveh turned to look at her in a panic.

"Kaveh dear. I left a note on the fridge three weeks ago to warn you, and I've been speaking of it frequently."

"Oh. That trip to Liyue," Kaveh tried to play it off, but Faruzan sighed and chuckled.

"It's okay if you forgot, you are quite a busy man. But don't forget me while I'm out, okay?"

Kaveh returned her kiss. "Yes, milady."
