WHO: Dante and others WHAT: Catch-all for May (and maybe June too why not) WHERE: Many Places WHEN: May! WARNINGS: Warnings will be in subject lines as needed
[It's a nice day. The rain's decided to take some mercy on Neo Tokyo and the sky is as blue as can be. It's not too warm out, and if the sun ever does get to be too hot there's a refreshing spring breeze ready to come in and cool things down again.
...
So why does this all feel so... off?]
Sure are a lot of flowers around. Guess all this rain was pretty helpful getting them to bloom, huh?
[No. They're going to have a good time. They've been looking forward to this. This is the exact sort of situation Don Quixote told them to try and smile more for, right?]
[Of course they are looking forward to this. He wanted to do this, see flowers with Dante. Yes, they are Guide and Manager. Their relationship is made for professional pleasantries, nothing more, but...]
[They're here. Even so, there's a shadow overcasting him, even if the sky is as blue as he can be. His face betrays nothing - but there's a tension in him, like someone winding a band around a finger to tighten it further.]
....Yes. [He says, finally.] They're beautiful, are they not? Do you like them?

I do. It's not often I get to see so many like this--real ones, I mean.
[Not something created as a reflection of someone's E.G.O. or as a result of an Abnormality.]
I think the last time was... Wuthering Heights?
no subject
[...Ah. Yes. The mention of Wuthering Heights. He glances back at them.]
I assume they had color.
no subject
Violet. I've seen the color plenty of times, but somehow, seeing it out in those half-colorless fields, it seemed brighter than I'd ever seen it.
no subject
[A color to leave a bad taste in his mouth.]
I don't know. It's a tragic color, I think. One would prefer something brighter.
no subject
[Ah, but in that memory... Right.]
O-Oh, but other, brighter colors are nice too. Some of these are tulips, right? I don't think I've seen any in this color before.
