"...thank you."

She seemed nice. ~~and familiar~~

He moved past them, quietly buying the flowers with his- frankly overflowing- supply of coins.

He quietly tried to leave, uninterested in making friends. ~~but the girl looked familiar. why was that?~~

Lav was taking deep, sharp and rapid breaths, hyperventilating and eyes vibrating in their sockets as they began to overthink everything, the situation only getting worse when the storekeeper asked if they were alright, feeling the eyes of everybody in the shop on her as she keeled over and struggled to breath properly, fully vulnerable and feeling it intensely. “C-can’t- breath- Inhaler in- my bag-“ She pointed at her nondescript brown bag.

The ashes rained down from the sky like snow, cinders scattered through the breeze…
And where was I? Burning in hell, of course.

Watching from behind the counter of the flower shop sat a rather young cookie. Barely a child or a teen, Rosewater Cookie was happily rearranging a display as the cookies entered the shop. Her gaze lifted from the display when she heard the nearby cookies chatting near the lavender. Did they mention Teahaven? She was certain she had heard correctly... She was distracted when a cookie came and bought a lovely combination of flowers. Before she could say too much, he was on his way out...

Walking the roads of the town, a cookie looked around boredly. Black Lily Cookie had a break from her job at the Labs and had some time before her trip to the healers, so she was stretching her legs out on a walk.

"Oh- of course-" She rummaged through the bag and pulled out the candy inhaler, putting it up to the Cookie's mouth. "Take a deep breath, okay?" She glanced at the mysterious cookie as they left, but only for a moment. She wanted to watch out for the health of the cookie in her arms.

he stopped, before turning back, his hands in his pockets.

He quietly tapped Mona.

"...excuse me..? Would you... mind telling me your name...? And the nearest location that sells scarves...?"

What was he doing?

He lowered his gaze slightly.

"...I'm Ruby Chocolate cookie... or just Ruby... I suppose."

Lav snatched the candy inhaler almost desperately and pressed it into her mouth, inhaling as if she was just born. She sat there for a few moments, just crying silently as she breathed through her inhaler, silently mouthing the names of her family members. “Honey dragon, matcha, glazed muffin…” she sobbed audibly whenever she finished the list, before restarting again. After about 5 minutes of this, they calmed down, storing their inhaler in her bag and getting up. “I’m so so sorry, I’m not normally like this. I hope i didn’t disrupt your business while i was having a breakdown..” Lav gave a small and nervous laugh.

"Of course not, it's alright! As long as you're safe and healthy, I can rest easy. My business isn't much, I promise." She smiled and pat Lav's shoulder. Once she heard a familiar voice, she turned to the cookie she saw before. "Oh, hello! Ruby, that's a lovely name! My name is Monarda Cookie, but most just call me Mona. And there's a really nice accessory shop just down the road- to the right, you can't miss it!" She took his hand and shook it gently as she introduced herself, beaming brightly.

Too bright. her smile was too bright. Like the sun.

He nodded quietly, as he broke the handshake, putting his hands back in his pocket.

"Ah... Mona... taht's... a good name."

he turned away.

"Thank you, mona."

He walked away, trying to shake that odd familiarity away.

"Mhm! Anytime!" She waved goodbye and went back to pick up the lavender she dropped. "Oh dear... I'll have to fix these when I get home..." She sighed and walked to the counter, paying for her flowers. Once the transaction was done, she bowed to the two other cookies in the store and walked outside, trying to get back home.

The accessory shop had many scarves. he loved scarves. So soft and comfortable...

Ruby walked out of the shop with significantly lighter pockets and about 10 scarves. He took his current scarf off, breaking it down into the shadows, with a wave of his hands. he pulled on one of his brand-new blue scarves, before dumping the rest into the shadows, watching them sink into the darkness.

perhaps this town wasn't that bad. He might want to stay here a bit longe- Oh, there was the cookie he'd introduced himself to earlier- Mona, she said she was. ~~brighter than the sun.~~

He kept his head down, his hands in his pockets, trying to make himself look as inconspicuous as possible.

"Hm?" She noticed Ruby almost immediately with a new scarf around his neck. "How cute! That's such a nice color!" She exclaimed, walking next to him now. She had been quick to catch up, wanting to converse with someone on the way home. "Where do you live? Is it anywhere around here? Or are you staying at the Dandelion Inn?"

"..."

he wasn't sure how to say that he was homeless in a good way.

"...I'm not from a round here. I don't really know where I'm from. I just kind of... woke up... one day... I guess."

His voice was quiet.

"Oh? That's terrible- maybe you have amnesia?" She tilted her head slightly, then lowered her hand to the bouquet of lavender and stuck a branch in his scarf. "Well, that's okay! Would you like to come to my home?"

He nodded quietly.

"...if you'll have me."

This was odd- too odd. This feeling of familiarity wouldn't go away.

He was certain he'd never met her before, so why was she so oddly comfortable to be around?

Ace was on her way to the clothes shop. If that existed. It had only been a month, and she desperately needed to get used to the new town. This was one of her first times in Lovage, since the Disaster had charred her home and her old favorite town, she was trying to avoid memories of it. She pulled up her purple hood, trying not to draw attention. As desperately as she tried to avoid conversation, she had to get someone to show her where to fix her hoodie, and get hairclips. Her frosting bangs kept covering her eyes. She saw what seemed like a couple, talking in front of a shop. She approached them.
"Hi. Would you know where the seamstress is-- and um-- where I can get hairclips?" She said, brushing her bangs out of her face, as if on cue.

"Oh?" She glanced in front of her at the girl. "Well, I'm no tailor myself, but I can fix a tear- and I have clips back at home. My name is Monarda Cookie- or Mona. What's your name?"

Lav twiddled her thumbs in front of the now closed flower shop, blushing furiously at her incompetence, failing at the simple task of buying flowers to mourn her family with, and now the shop was closed. She sighed, scratching the back of her head. She was a failure in every aspect, especially in matters regarding her family. She was an unworthy sibling and daughter and granddaughter. No matter, she would buy flowers tomorrow. Now, she needed to buy new clothes. Striding along the road, she headed into the accessory shop.

The ashes rained down from the sky like snow, cinders scattered through the breeze…
And where was I? Burning in hell, of course.

Ruby eyed Mona quietly, peering out from under his hood.

She was dangerous.

Way too bright.

Nobody was that nice. She couldn't be real. That kind of cookie just didn't exist.

weakness?

Ace gazed at Mona. "Um---Ace...er---Acaii Berry Cookie." She said. Great. Now she had invited herself to someone's house. Although, it wasn't the worst thing in the world, if her hoodie got patched up. She noticed the unease of the boy. Turning to him, she asked, "Uh, what's your name?"

Lottie hurried down the streets to the flower shop. she hoped it was still open. Finally, she arrived and...
closed. Great. She sighed, knowing she was going to make the trek from The Observatory, where she lived now, here again tomorrow. Shhe headed off, back home. Maybe, if she was already here, she could buy some things she had needed for a while. "I planned to make them myself...but this will do." she muttured, off to the accessory shop.

"...Ruby Chocolate Cookie."

Ruby's voice was quiet, his hands in his pockets. He eyed the newcomer warily.

He fiddled with the hilt of his trench knife, not sure what everyone's deal was. Why did everyone seem so overly- ah. Was it because of the explosion that happened a while ago?

Well, it had nothing to do with him.

he didn't care in the slightest.
