[heiroglyphs]

[She's going to get a phone call immediately!!]

Soleil, you didn't need to do all of this for me! I can't believe you.

[sunnymerc]

[ She knows exactly what this is about before she answers... ]

Hey, Vera! You got your gift from your secret admirer, huh?

[ So very secret. ]

[heiroglyphs]

Uh, yeah? They're beautiful. Seriously, where did you even find white roses?

[sunnymerc]

Heehee. Don't tell me you were underestimating me! I'll have you know I know just about every florist in the city. It wasn't difficult at all.

[heiroglyphs]

Well it's still incredible. Thank you so much.

And, um, I'd definitely still be up for that drink. I'm just... getting the setup moving for my party tonight. You're coming, right?

[sunnymerc]

Haha! It's nothing for a friend's birthday, silly. More than any other day, today is the day for everyone to let you know how special you are!

I won't mess it.

[heiroglyphs]

Well I definitely feel special. You're going to have to give me your birthday so I can return the favor.

[sunnymerc]

You already have. Mine's August thirty-first. I met you the day after. What present could you get me better than that?

[heiroglyphs]

Oh my god, I'm mad at myself for forgetting. I'm putting it in my calendar now, what's your favorite flower?

[sunnymerc]

If I had to pick one, I suppose I'd say sunflowers.

[ A pause. ]

It's...a coincidence, not some sort of joke. Okay?

[heiroglyphs]

Quoi que tu dises, mon doux tournesol. I'll make sure to keep that in mind.

[sunnymerc]

[ This is the crash-like sound that can only be a phone falling out of her hand and to the ground.

Play it cool, Soleil. ]

W-Well, you've got almost a year so you may want to write that down.

[heiroglyphs]

[Oh man, did she hit a note there?]

Should I also write down that you like pet names?

[sunnymerc]

Qu'est-ce qui vous a donné cette idée?!

Um. I'm not the pet name type of person. I'm more the...give them out kind of person.

[heiroglyphs]

Well, if you don't like it, I can stop?

[sunnymerc]

N-No, don't stop. Gosh, I can't believe you're making me say that.

[heiroglyphs]

Wow, I'm better at this than I thought I was.

[She chuckles to herself.]

Do you want to get that drink now, or should we save it for the party tonight?

[sunnymerc]

I'd much rather it be a private affair. You'll be in high demand, won't you?

[heiroglyphs]

Je suis toujours très en demande, ma douce fleur. Shall we meet somewhere, or maybe just open a bottle at my apartment?

[sunnymerc]

Oh, jeez. You're getting better at this. How about your apartment? I think something lowkey may be nice to balance out your...everything else.

[heiroglyphs]

What can I say? I learn from the best.

[She chuckles to herself, obviously proud of her skills. All those late-night study sessions on flirting and relationships may have actually paid off.]

I'll let the front desk know you're coming. They'll buzz you up to my floor.

[sunnymerc]

Ah, you're going to break hearts. I can feel it.

[At least it's real hard to break Soleil's heart. She is okay with this princess getting more powerful.

With in no time, she is on Vera's floor and buzzing her doorbell.]

[heiroglyphs]

[Vera comes to the door in a little white dress and a smile on her face, hardly giving her friend the time to take in the view before she pulls her into a tight hug.]

The bottle's chilling, come in and get cozy.

[sunnymerc]

Oh.

[Soleil on the other hand is in a pair of ordinary slacks and a t-shirt and is feeling particularly under-dressed for the princess's invitation.

She scoops Vera up off her feet to return the hug.]

Looking as cute as ever, ma petite princesse. Lead the way.

[heiroglyphs]

Oh!

[She lets out a squeak as she's scooped up off her feet, covering her mouth immediately in an attempt to hide the noise.]

R-right inside, on the couch. You can... carry me if you want.
