Flowers of Heaven 2: future is now + ☆ZRAEL

There’s a whirr and a series of quiet bleep-boops; an odd sound like stones grinding together.

Gathering around you all are strange creatures. Wheeling up to future is now are what seem to be friendly robots, almost like roombas, that have been given attachments of long, jointed arms with simple pincers at the ends, and hopping up to ☆ZRAEL are what look like a number of gargoyles, each no more than a few feet high and in the traditional gothic cathedral style—and all animate, their flesh made of living rock.
None of the creatures speak, exactly, but they chitter and nudge at you like they're greeting old friends, and usher you towards a gap that's opened in the thick curtain of kudzu vines and onto a winding path beyond.

Once you cross through, the vines grow rapidly to cover the open space behind you, and the voices of your fellow idols fade from your ears. It seems as if you’re on your own, now.

❀ ❀ ❀

Here, the vines that surround your path have thick, velvety leaves, and the stems of the vines are traced with shifting, fiber-optic lines that cycle through the rainbow.

The little creatures are carrying some things for you—the roombas carry a wreath of vervain, honeysuckle, and oak flowers and leaves, and the gargoyles a wreath of lotus, clematis, and wild rose. As they approach you, the air shifts in a strange way, and suddenly they have one wreath between them—all those flowers woven together into one, which they offer to you. They also have for you a collection of sixteen different flowers, and a small lantern of blue flame.

All right. What's up next, and who shall we protect.

Seems it's fairly even all around, so it's mostly all the same to me. Less anyone has flowers they think we ought to avoid.

Chamomile and Clematis haven't been targeted yet. If we put the crown on your unitmate and burn those flowers, we might be able to protect her at least.

[ And also Aradia but she's forgotten about her and her flowers. ]

Good! It's nice to be able to have an easy agreement.

Continuing to burn the flowers of the one protected seems to be the best choice here.

[ sort of like—a moment of surprise, before going like, right, he was here, wasn't he? ]

Unless we take Alizarin's suggestion but also that seems like too much trouble too early.

Did you get here late?
numberedays: ([3 Think] only to destroy them all)

Burning any flowers that aren't protected is definitely a bad idea.
trainphreaking: (00011000; it wasn't.)

Definitely. I understand the impulse, but also, it'll cause trouble.
trainphreaking: (00010001; i guess.)

Sure. You theoretically might feel a lot of things once one gets to my age.

Theoretically...
