Thanks to a piece of toast, Olivia has found herself once again in love with Viola (the other side effect has faded). She knows she shouldn't act on her feelings, but that doesn't mean she can't angst. And oh, is she angsting!

And how can Feste bear to see his lady weep? So he comes before her on bended knee and produces with a flourish a bouquet from his sleeve.

"Marry, milady, I found these in my laundry."

*wipes her eyes and attempts a teasing smile* In thy laundry, dear Feste? Hast let it go so long without washing that flowers have in't grown?

Forsooth, I heard from the birds with my morning news that 'twere a fall of rain within these walls that had caused them to grow. And so I was bound to find its source, let we develop a forest.

Ay, 'tis a flood I had thought was long since stopped. *takes Feste's hands, a little nervously* I- the goddess's blessing hath left me, and I find myself cursed.

*and just to make things that little bit more difficult, Viola, passing by, will stop to see what is the matter*

*headtilt* Why so sad, lady?

[pretty_sweeting]

*gasps and looks away* O, lady, lady, forgive me!

[servantsservant]

*slight frown* I pray you, tell me first what it is I must forgive.

Can'st thou not see the change? My new-old burden hath settled so heavily around me, I feel it must be known to all.
