Is that so...

[hmmmm]

...I wouldn't have described myself that way, but I guess it applies well enough.

[at least these days]

[pictureimperfect]

How would you describe yourself?

[reportinastorm]

...I'm a reporter. I'm determined to use the power of information to make things better for humanity.

And I'll do things my way no matter what the danger is. Or what anyone else says.

[grins]

Oh yeah, you'll get along great with us.

[reportinastorm]

...I'm glad to hear it.

[pictureimperfect]

You should be, we're a great flock to be on. Ah, but let's get back to names miss reporter~ Flower goddesses, let's see...

Most obvious would be Flora, she's the Roman goddess of flowers and spring. The Greek's called her Chloris. Or if you want a more specific flower there's Sakuya-hime, the cherry blossom princess whose an avatar of life. We could call you Poppy for the Minoan Poppy goddess, though that's a piece of artwork so what that goddess actually means is up for debate.

[reportinastorm]

[blinks!]

Flora is the name of a goddess?

[pictureimperfect]

Yeah! She'd usher in the start of a new cycle of life, Romans prayed to her for blessings and protection during their spring celebrations. She makes things better for humanity just like you.

[those are some pretty big shoes to fill. but for someone with such small feet Meryl doesn't hesitate very long over it]

I only knew it as the technical term... I like it.

[pictureimperfect]

Then it's yours. Welcome to Thistle, Flora.

[reportinastorm]

Thanks, Yata.

...Have you been here long?

[pictureimperfect]

Hmmm... About two months maybe?

[reportinastorm]

That seems like a lot of people... Is that around when everything started?

[pictureimperfect]

Everything started a week before I got here. Odin's the only one still here who was there at the beginning.

[reportinastorm]

I see. Do people leave fairly often?

[pictureimperfect]

...Often enough. You better plan on sticking around.

[reportinastorm]

I'm certainly planning on it at the moment. Minuet is here, and I have a lot to learn about... well, flora.
