Giving someone a beautiful bouquet of blossoms is a universal sign of romantic intent. Even you, Mr. or Mrs. Zero-Romantic-Bones-in-Their-Body, can't screw that up...
...you can't, right?

prompts.
① crushin' → On the person, not the flowers. Hopefully not the flowers. ② awkward → Y-you're so pretty, and so are these blooms. Just- just take them! ③ suave → A rose for your sweet. ④ bonus points → Asking them out? Okay. Asking them out with flowers? Major score! ⑤ out of character → You're the last person in the world who'd get anyone a gift, much less something mushy like flowers. But that's how crazy this person's got you going. You're totally smitten. ⑥ singles act → You only need one gorgeous flower to make an impact; everything else is set dressing. Plus, one flower's easy to find. ⑦ reminded → You know they like this stupid stuff and for some reason, flowers make you think of them. You don't get it, but hey. Giving them away gets the dumb plants off your hands. ⑧ coincidence → There aren't for them, not at all. You didn't get any flowers with them in mind! But since you have them, you may as well give 'em away. ⑨ not too good → How can you mess up giving somebody a bouquet? Well, if there's bees in it, for one. If they're allergic, if you make a total idiot out of yourself, you absolute nimrod... ⑩ no flowers to give → You ran out of time or you live in a nuclear wasteland, so you had to improvise. These aren't quite the flowers you'd see in the florist's shop. ⑪ because you can → You're in the mood for doting on your honey. ⑫ patch things up → Baby, I totally didn't forget your birthday. No, I wasn't staring at her ass. Here, I got you a present! ⑬ upgrade → There's no better way to show you want to make your relationship serious than presenting your best babe with some buds and blooms. ✿ WILDCARD ✿
Face was positioned perfectly so that the first thing Charissa would see when she answered his smart rapts on her door would be the flowers. The bouquet was really, truly impressive. Almost ridiculously so. It was arranged by someone who clearly knew what they were doing, sparing no expense for the display. Not that the expense was footed by Face personally, per se. But it was the thought that counts, right?
As an apology, they were over board. As a suave and gentlemanly gesture, they were only slightly less over board. But Face really took the colonel's advice to heart in the most obscure parts of his life - over kill was highly under rated.
After the flowers, his perfectly smiling face would come into view, with some perfect quip or complement ready on the tip of his tongue. Yes, he was definitely ready for this. He wanted this night to go perfectly. Heston was a slightly classier joint than they were used to frequenting on their casual nights out, but Face didn't know how much longer he could have taken the Schwarzenegger look alike at the bar they had been going to.
No. He was definitely not going back there again. And not just because the bar tender wanted to separate his head from the rest of his body. Well, maybe it was a contributing factor, but that was besides the point. Tonight was going to be perfect.
[Courting someone should not be a difficult task for the King of Knights. After all the efforts Shirou has made, it would be her turn to be the wooing party. She has thought it would be perfect. The first thing she did was to find the suits Irisviel has purchased for her hidden in the attic, after dressed as a draper gentleman she has borrowed money from Taiga who was too busy swooning at her gallant stance to care of the reason why she asked for that sum.]
Shirou. Welcome back.
[She greets him properly, looking older with her low ponytail and her dark outfit. She whips out the flower bouquet she has bought for him and offers it with a disarming smile. She has chosen to gift him with red, pink and white camellias.]
October had heard of pirates of course but as close as Tybalt might come he wasn't actually a pirate. So this was new for her. Being a changeling though, it wasn't the most upsetting surprise she'd dealt with recently. He certainly did go all out though, didn't he, leather jacket and even... was that a hook? She found her eyes dropping to see if there was a peg leg somewhere. What? Toby had self control, but come on, some things you just have to look for.
((If you'd like I can have her give him flowers but more likely it will be because she just has them and has no where to put them LOL. I'm honestly good with any of the scenarios but I think perhaps 2,3,4,6,8, 9(comedy gold is fine)or 11?))
[It had been a few months since Feldt had come to work aboard the bridge of the Archangel, and she and Athrun had ended up spending a lot of time working together or simply talking while eating next to each other in the cafeteria. And for whatever reason, Athrun found himself drawn to her. Perhaps it had to do with having some similar interests, or perhaps just having someone who he could approach at his own pace, since they were both somewhat introverted.
Whatever the case, at some point Athrun decided that he wanted to move what they had going in a different direction. He knows the hazards of dating someone from work, but he's also done it before -- granted, that one didn't work out, but it was for different reasons.
It's a good day for it. The weather is nice, and the Archangel is in dock, so they can go anywhere on the island. Athrun walks up to the door to Feldt's apartment, bouquet of flowers tucked behind his back. He's also planted a small surprise in the bouquet that he's confident she'll like.
The flowers were most likely unexpected. They arrived as a thick, short bouquet wrapped in tissue paper, a bundle of mountain irises and mouse-ear chickweed, no note tucked inside. Maybe they weren't exactly named attractively, but with the blue and white, there was no mistaking who they were from. Someone who was rather smug with pulling it off, honestly.
