Vega 9, 15, 20, 13, 8 Peony - Prosperity and good fortune Chrysanthemum - Friendship and honesty Lavender - Peace and serenity Marigold - Creativity, warmth, celebration Iris - Wisdom, faith, hope Her garden was in bloom. A riot of colours and shapes and smells. Heady, sweet, floral. It was no surprise the flowers had a language all their own, a meaning for each spray and bloom. From the tiniest of buds to flowers that caused the end of their perch to bow with their heft.
Vega smiled at her handiwork, and nosed her companion, Eli.
"Shall we see what the flowers have in store for us today, my sweet friend?"
Her companion rabbit's whiskers twitched and he lapped at his paws before rubbing them over his head. Once done, he hippity-hoppitied over to a large stone hewn into a rough shape with flat edges. The raccoon family that had passed through had been wonderfully accommodating with their help. Not only did she have a collection of rocks chipped into varying shapes, they all had delicate little engravings shaped into flowers, smudged with a bit of ink that matched the petal's hues.
It was the second largest of the rocks that Eli turned at and gave his back legs a thump into it. Skip, clack, clatter, and it bumped to a stop to display the flower atop it that Vega gathered, humming to herself. "Peony, how lovely~"
Four more times did the rock tumble and she gathered a bloom for each.
"The wisdom to know that your creative endeavours bring peace, friendship, and good fortune." She tossed her head, her leafy mane settling again. "And how very rich I am with you by my side, Eli, and the friends we've met and gained."

Saerillys 13, 6, 11, 11, 18 Marigold - Creativity, warmth, celebration Orchid - Strength, rare beauty Hyacinth - Sincerity and steadfastness Hyacinth - Sincerity and steadfastness Forget-Me-Not - True love and lasting memories The sudden rush of a multitude of pleasant, sweet scents reached her on the balmy air, and Saerillys's forward momentum hitched in a minor pause before she turned to quite literally follow her nose. Grass gave way to blooms and a riot of colour came visible.
"Oh, wow." Her ears flicked, taking in the buzz of bees, the whispering of trees and plants alike. And then she saw the rabbit reminiscent of a monarch, and the flutter with it, the bundle of five flowers perhaps a meal, or snack. "Lovely garden." Vega's wings fluttered with the soft gust as their newfound companion spoke, and she looked up. A flutter, with blooms trailing on what seemed to be horns. "Thank you. You wouldn't like a flower fortune, would you?""Flower fortune? That sounds delightful~!" She eased out of the way, careful to not squish any blossoms and give the other flutter enough room to grow. And then watched, intrigued, as the little rabbit kicked a stone around. Still more intriguing was that the other flutter gathered one flower for each little symbol that landed facing the sky."Two hyacinth to bolster the message... How intriguing. The flowers acknowledge your rare beauty, but a blossoming connection for you speaks of something very stable, steady, and warm: your true love, blessed with many, many memories.""Oh." She quietly peeped, eyes brightening. She gathered the little bouquet close, wanting to shrink down to her smallest size to explore the radiant colours and inviting smells. But she was quite aware that if she did that, her own companion might tangle with her, and that simply wouldn't do. She closed her eyes and gave her head a little shaking jostle. And then again. "Arithyl, you simply must request a fortune, too!"
Once more for good measure, and she watched the fluttercorn drift upon the air and slowly grow as her own perspective shrank towards the rich soil and plants.

Arithyl 18, 12, 15, 13, 19 Forget-Me-Not - True love and lasting memories Lilac - First love and youthful dreams Chrysanthemum - Friendship and honesty Marigold - Creativity, warmth, celebration Camellia - Admiration and perfection From a cluster of cherry blossoms dropped a pale lavender flutter, and the green patterns on their back shifted away from their body to catch the wind and turn that freefall into a drift. Legs splayed mid-air in a stretch before slowly, surely, their form shifted and grew. Bit by bit, until they were mid-size. A tumble of mussed curls still managed to be artfully layered upon an arched neck, spiralling and soft as silk. Hooves touched down and 'Arithyl' turned their head. Petals drifted across their body, and a set of wings similar to those upon their back fluttered at their ears.
"Flower fortune..?" Came the soft inquiry. They might have been older, but they held an ageless air, full of ethereal grace that was hard to replicate. Their tail dragged as they adjusted it, another spill of hair looping and shifting over grass, dirt, and flowers alike. Fae-like, large eyes peered between Sae and this unknown flutter that clearly had a well tended garden. They studied the mare, intent but non-threatening, and eventually dipped their head. "If you would be so kind. I'd love to hear what the flowers have to say."
They felt quite at home, here. Slowly, they tucked himself to settle, bringing their hooves well under their body before sinking like a ship into the west. Content, they rested their muzzle against a little pile of forget-me-nots and breathed deep. eyes trailed to the rabbit and rock, and was gifted with their own bouquet. Their eyes passed over them and softened at the lilacs nestled in the bunch."Goodness," Vega intoned, tilting her head one way then the other. "You've had quite the life, full of young love and even lovelier memories. It's been perfect in its imperfection, and certainly worth celebrating...and it looks like the next chapter of your life will reflect even more. True love, lasting memories. I get the feeling of the kiss of sun's rays that cast a golden glow of warmth. How auspicious."Arithyl's eyes crinkled, and they blew a soft, sweet breath. How well these flowers knew them. It was hardly a surprise; and they dipped their head in appreciation again before inquiring: "Would it be possible to have a lilac crown be made? I would be honoured to bear it."Vega looked surprised a moment, and after a very brief consideration, responded. "Why yes. I believe we can do that."

Elliotte 6, 1, 2, 3, 1 Orchid - Strength, rare beauty Rose - Love, passion, beauty Lily - Purity, devotion, virtue Daisy - Innocence, new beginnings Rose - Love, passion, beauty It was a day for meetings.
Elliotte was the last of the auspicious gathering to stumble upon the little collective, and his ears swept forward. "Oh. My apologies; I was here seeing if I could get more tea ingredients."
He seemed a little sheepish, but perhaps that was because he'd already had a couple roses and other flowers tucked in the satchel shielded by large wings. His head tipped to the side as the rather enthusiastic, bright flutter explained while swooping in dizzying loops near his head about the language of flowers and how Vega was so kind as to do reading for them and he really should get one himself that he finally chuckled when she took a breath.
"This is fine. Perhaps I will brew tea for us from the results, provided they're safe to do so."
The little rabbit no doubt had gotten quite the workout, he pondered, watching the little thing kick about a stone and Vega read the results before gathering a small bouquet."Well well, there seems to be passionate and enduring love on the horizon with this new beginning." She seemed to be even more delighted at the reaction she was getting. "Oh, so there is a new little love in your life~ Well don't worry, it will be devoted as well as passionate. A very fortuitous reading."Elliotte's head dipped and an embarrassed rumble sounded in his chest. He shifted on his hooves, a bashful little prance in place that dispelled some of that little flutter of embarrassment before he bent his head to smell the collective blooms, allowing that peace and hope to settle within him. Yes, everything would be just fine. It could hardly be anything but.
He lifted his gaze to the other three and the rabbit, and a smile dawned in his eyes, lighting them up. "Would everyone like some tea?"
It was a good day for meetings.
