💐THE FLORIOGRAPHY MEME💐

Floriography or Hanakotoba is the art of basically assigning meaning to flowers and certain plants. If you have something to say to a certain person, you give them that certain flower or use multiple flowers for a bouquet filled with complex meaning.

THE RULES:

🌼Post with your character/s, perhaps add permissions or basic information about the character.
🌻 Tag a person with a flower or a bouquet. Some meanings can be found here and at the link for Hanakotoba. 
🌺 React to the message! Send some flowers back, use the flowers as a prompt. Do watcha want.
🌹 Pray you aren't allergic to pollen or bees. 🐝

[ Also happy to go with Victorian AU for her on this because those Victorians loved their flower language, man. OTA for gen, m/f for shipping. ]

[Somehow, flowers meant to be delivered to the graves of his family are delivered to her, because that's how crack posting works. Have a nice triple assortment of Asphodels, Esther, along with a note that says:

"The day you died, I died with you. I know I open every note with that, but it is as important for me to remember it as it is for you to know it. My heart and soul rest with you. Remembering that makes me feel less alone. My shell may walk this earth, but my soul knows family. I love you as much now as I did yesterday and as much as I'll love you tomorrow. Yours forever, Frank"

So um. Congratulations Esther. Your London address is the same as a cemetery in New York? Because he somehow got the country wrong but the rest of the address right. How fun is that knowledge?]

[ A trailing bundle of eglantine rose and white heather, arranged in a manner that is more neat than elegant, has been left at his bedside in a vase. ]

[ninehilist]

[Things are.

Well.

The mess of flowers should say it all. Asphodel. Roses of so many different colors. Snowdrops. Red dahlias. White lilacs. Rainflowers. Ivy and hydrangea. And lilies, so many orange lilies. It seems even flowers can't really encompass everything 9S wants to say to 2B.

But there's also a lunar tear in there.]

[ooc: I love flower language stuff like this! What a great idea for a meme. I always associate her with violets (loyalty, devotion, faithfulness) but could also see her with marigolds (despair, grief). OTA, canon, crosscanon, assumed CR, etc. Gen or shipping equally loved for this!]

[leavesof3]

[Heather is a common wild flower, and perhaps the kind that one would pay less attention to as they walk along a given path, except the purple and white blooms that are growing beside Raoul's path this day appear to be "walking" with him... the sprouts push up out of the soil and flourish at an amazingly rapid pace that keeps perfect time with his step. A sight that would suggest that they are growing by his side just for him.

The purple flowers have long been associated with solitude, but also symbolize admiration, beauty, and luck. White is associated with protection.]

[Knows her shit, so you can either know yours too and have an entire conversation in plants OR accidentally send the wrong message. Misfires also welcome! Just no smut, please.]

[brokeassgoing]

[you've found someone who knows not one iota about plants-- but he has enthusiasm if nothing else, and the eyes are drawn to pretty things, naturally. The flowers, not-- well. He's a tad self conscious about it, so when she does recieve these flowers from him (algerian ivy because haha of course ivy!!!, delphinium in pink, begonias in yellow, lily of the valley, and a single yellow tulip) it's by way of the bouquet being pushed under her nose, presented:]

Here, just found 'em. I figured you could do something with them.
