[the dreamberry feed turns on when it appears to have been knocked off whatever surface on which it had been resting. the first thing you might see is hair-- lots of it, blonde and criss-crossing across the room of a homey-looking cottage. And then someone drops down into view, tangled into the hair that seems to be her own as she hangs, suspended

[there's a lot on his mind and it all flies out the window when he sees that painting]

Wow.

[flowergleam]

[smile and a bit of a hesitant laugh] Eugene?

[foundaprincess]

You did a really good job on that, Goldie. Present for Aurora?

[flowergleam]

Yes. [smile relaxes] I thought the least I could do for her being so kind to me is paint a picture of her dream.

[foundaprincess]

So that's Philip huh. [whistles] The Princess hooked herself quite the stud. You jealous, Goldie?

[flowergleam]

[Flynn what is your language]

...Jealous?

[foundaprincess]

Yeah, you know. Don't you want one of those for yourself?

[tease mode on]

[flowergleam]

One of-- [blush] No, I... he and Aurora are lovely together.

[no, this is not answering the question, and she doesn't even care because this is treading very dangerous ground. very dangerous ground. hello remembering that night in his apartment--]

[foundaprincess]

[Flynn and your discomfort = cat on a ball of yarn]

That is hardly an answer, sweetheart. And don't give me that stuck-in-a-tower excuse. I'm sure you've met many nice people here in Somarium.

[dish the dirt. he knows you got some]

[flowergleam]

[cry why so mean Flynn.]

I don't think about it much, I guess. It's not about finding someone just for the sake of it, you know? It'll be right if it happens. And if not, then... I guess it just wasn't meant to be.

[she may or may not have switched tenses thinking about a certain scenario]

[foundaprincess]

[it's probably love

Stop being so adorably insightful, Blondie, now he's thinking about the apartment thing too. It was probably just as well that he didn't get what he was gunning for if she held those views... but it wasn't exactly his finest hour so he doesn't enjoy remembering it]

Yeah. Love, fate, destiny, whatever. [airy gesture that might have a bit of sharpness to it if you squint] You almost finished with that?

[flowergleam]

[blink of surprise]

Oh-- the painting? Yes, I think so...

[she turns to look at it, then back to Flynn]

Is everything all right, Eugene?

[foundaprincess]

Yeah, just peachy.

[he's just been doing a lot of thinking, is all, though clearly he hasn't come to a resolution yet]

Hey, would it... would it be a bother if I came over? I don't really have a reason for it but- AH! That's right! I got some jam from one of the residents a few days ago, smells absolutely de-li-cious. You might like it, Blondie. In fact, if you guys have some bread, maybe we can make a meal out of it or...

[Ye-ah. Basically this is a "let's hang out" thing. And no, he is not sure why he's asking for this himself]

[flowergleam]

Oh-I wouldn't mind at all! I made some bread yesterday, so we can eat that.

...That sounds like a lot of fun, Eugene.

[foundaprincess]

Yeah? [RELIEF] Uh, sure, fun! Need anything from Espoir? I'm passing by the tavern to get something before I head over there.

[flowergleam]

Um... maybe some more paint, if it's not too out of your way?
