@sofiaquitecontrary;

[ ✉ ] — Dirk looks down at the address printed on the package he held, and then up to the grandiose manor that loomed before him. He blinks and arches a brow. Uncertain green eyes shift back to the package, and then to the manor once more. Huh. Apparently, this was the place... 

Must be nice to live in such a fancy home. To have everything handed to you, and not have to work for the things you need in life... ‘course, the person living here could be one of those self-made rich types, too. Maybe Dirk could be one of those someday.

If he ever figured out what the hell he wanted to do with his life, that is.

Evelyn couldn’t lie. Compared to Soseki, she was absolutely at a loss when it came to words. So when it came to the Flower Festival, she wasn’t exactly sure of the message she should carry towards the people she was buying bouquets for. So, Evelyn decided to simply write one message to send to all of them.

Because, honestly, there was one particular thing that Evelyn wanted to announce.

The Hunt Family ( @sofiaquitecontrary and @treetopdynamite ), the Dezar Family ( @endlessmadrigal and @jake-out-the-humans ), and Porcoline ( @marveloushello ) will find the following message attached to a bouquet of purple lisianthuses. Georgia ( @rxzberries ) will find this message attached to a bouquet of red alstromerias.

Hello,

Happy Flower Festival from your favorite seamstress! I hope you enjoy the flowers on this lovely day! 

Also, I have a small announcement to make. Let’s just say that everyone should expect two little ones at the Yamamoto household around September ;) 

Love you lots!

Porcoline spent much of the day arranging bouquets into larger bouquets, comprising a dozen each of anemones, alstroemerias, lisianthuses, sunflowers, and yellow roses. He festooned the bundles of flowers with ribbons, packaged them with care, and sent them off to Leuda.

Marvelous hello!

I hope you’re having a phenomenal Flower Festival, and that these flowers will serve to make it all the more fantastic. I’d love to come visit sometime soon. I’ll be sure to bring plenty of food!

As soon as Lily arrived at the store, she flagged down an employee to help her choose some baby shower gifts. She had no idea what was appropriate and what babies needed, since she had no plans of having children in the near future. 

With the help of the worker, she decided on Bambi themed muslin cloths (Lily had no ideas what these were used for but apparently they were essential for new mothers), a soft bunny toy for the baby to cuddle, and a pink photo album so the couple could record all their memories of their baby girl.

[ Baby Shower Gifts ]

[♫] — Max refused to attend his cousin’s baby shower empty-handed, so along with picking up the delivery for the custom-made music box he ordered a few days beforehand, he ended up stopping by the store after work, and picking out a few more gifts he felt both Mia and her parents would appreciate.

The activity mat was a bit too large for him to be carting in (of course, that’s what his assistants were for), but he was sure Sofia and Luke would love it as much as the music box and two animal-themed bath towels he brought.

He wished the two a healthy and happy birth. Come soon, little Mia!

In the mail, both Sofia and Luke will find a very small box. Inside, they will find a small note, a little monkey for Mia, and the keys to a brand new yacht.

Dear Sofia (and Luke),

Merry Christmas! Enclosed, you’ll find a little surprise from your favorite older sister! Take those keys out to the Leuda docks and look for a little boat with the name “Seas the Day” and see if they work on it ;)

Please thank me in person~ And bring darling little Mia, too! I hope she likes the plush!

Love,

Evelyn

[ Baby Shower Gifts - From Evelyn to Sofia ]

Evelyn hadn’t been to a baby shower before, so she didn’t know what the usual gift was for these events. However...Evelyn was good at making clothes, and Goddess damn it she was going to make some cute clothes for little baby Mia. Because she already loved her niece-to-be and she couldn’t wait for her to be born.

Evelyn was beginning to hate the hospital.

She swore this nurse was there last time she was there. The knowing looks that the nurse was giving her made her a tad bit uncomfortable. 

Evelyn stood in the lobby of the hospital, getting things straightened out before she was formally discharged. After her last voyage, Evelyn had to spend a night there, mostly to rest (though she didn’t get much rest, honestly). There were still some obvious injuries on her wrists that she planned on covering up with makeup next time she went out, but otherwise Evelyn was just sore. And her scalp hurt a little. Goddess, short hair never felt so appealing before.

The nurse behind the counter finally finished everything up. Evelyn gave her a polite smile before turning to finally walk out of the hospital. By the Goddess’ grace, she hoped it would be a long time before she ended up in there again.

However, just as she exited the hospital, she ran into someone.

Not just someone.

Her younger sister, Sofia.

Luke must have told her about what happened.
