Huh? Oh-- You've reached Bolin!
Yeah, I'm a pretty busy guy but leave me a message and I'll beep you back

Oh, he would love that! And Columbia would love that.

[ METHOD ACTING! It's about Columbia! Bolin doesn't have a crush on Ryan at all!

Wu excitedly looks over the stalls, but there aren't any flowers, none at all. They're nearly at the other end of the market, his spirits dampened, when he spots something colorful. He grabs Bolin's arm (god, he has good arms), and pulls him toward the stall ]

There!

[pabugotmoves]

[Bo follows and gasps loudly, eyes wide. It's there. Right there. Right at the end, the stall draped in furs and thick wool to keep the flowers that little bit more protected.

And right there in the middle with pride of place is magnificent bouquet in a protective hat box on a pedestal.

Well, magnificent is subjective... but it fills the brief.]

Carriage be damned, I'm getting that!

[Bolin grabs Wu back, surging with glee and excitement before bolting towards the tent, hand firmly around Wu's wrist.]

Wu look, it's perfect, isn't it perfect? Ryan is going to love it, don't you think? It's like this was put here just for me.

[ Honestly? To Wu, they look tacky. Like, really tacky. But Bolin is so excited about them that he smiles a strained smile, giving him two thumbs up. Who puts glitter on flowers?! Flowers are pretty enough on their own. ]

Those are-- great, buddy! I'm sure he'll love it. They're sparkly, like Columbia's outfit!

[ Because this is about Columbia and not Ryan, obviously ]

[pabugotmoves]

[Oh they're disgusting but they fit what he said Columbia would like so THEY'RE PERFECT. Bo whips around to the seller and holds up the paleblood stone.]

I'll take them!!

[She was going to dismiss them but her eyes lock on to the stone and without saying a word she takes it and gestures to the flowers. They're yours, sir. Bolin squeals with delight and gathers them up into his arms. He has severely overpaid for these but he is not aware and he does not care. Mission accomplished, he can relax.]

Alright! One stop for tea because I am freezing and then these are going to Ryan.

[royalfling]

Great! You'll have to tell me if he likes them.

[ But Ryan's also the type to say he does when he doesn't, so maybe Wu will have to get the dirt later.

His eyes flick around to see if there's anything Mako will like, but the only flowers this time of year are those tacky ones covered in glitter and, well, no thanks. He doesn't want to bring Mako up again, anyways. ]
