Hello helloo! We're 13 days in it now, our collection is here!! >>> Special Floriography Service Ways of joining are also that we can invite you to the collection, (in which case you'd have to inform us if you're joining or nae, through reblogs mentioning ur ao3 / or simple comments about joining) Or you join through posting a work! We'll be reblogging references / inspirations under the tag #SFSinspo - so if you'd like to see only that, you can search it, and if you don't want to see it, you can block it out completely. Happy creating, peers; we can't wait to see your works soon :)) (i've been chipping away at mine own, so, i'll be posting those wips!)

Paddy grew roses, after the war.

He was buried with family, and there are red roses on his grave.

View over Newtownards with the chimneys of Mount Pleasant in trees to the west; Ards Rugby Club and Strangford Lough, where Paddy learned to sail.

On the 23rd September 1941 Eoin writes to Ambrose, from the heat and flies of the camp at Kabrit,

'Don't come out here if you can help it...The Adair Arms and a thick glass of Guinness and heavy rain outside haunt every moment of the day.'*

WELCOME TO THE SPECIAL FLORIOGRAPHY SERVICE

Special Floriography Service (SFS) is a SAS: ROGUE HEROES fandom event that explores ideas / themes / concepts through flower symbolism / language. It's open to all, and it requires no sign-up or time limit; you can post your work after or even before the event officially ends / starts. Likewise, the event itself will repeat and reopen - with the given that there is tons of language to explore, and there are enough characters on top of that. Our first prompt schedule is set within August 2026; the tag you should use is #SFSaugust. Otherwise, we wouldn't see your works !! * You can post WIPs / Finished Creations and @ us for us to reblog / share even if we haven't officially started * You can reblog works that had flower symbolism for us, so that there is more visibility, regardless that they weren't made with this event in mind. * This is an event to support creativity / share individual work / appreciate the fandom - every form of art (fanfiction, edit, artwork, web weaving, poetry, music, etc.) will be treated equally and adored the most! You are allowed to create whatever you find fulfilling for this event. * You can participate even if you do not create; reblogging, commenting, and kudos are forms of participation and support! * We recommend you follow this blog for updates / event specific posts; however, it is not required for participation!
