A Flower a Day Keeps the Bees at Play
Who: Usagi Tsukino (Serena Lapin) and customers
What: It’s Usagi’s real first day of work after all her training… wish her luck
When: All Day
Where: The flower store Usagi works at
Warnings: Just the cheerful klutz that is Usagi?
Notes: I’m more than happy to match styles!
A: Early Morning
Luna (and Mamoru) had learned long ago, that the way to get Usagi anywhere on time was to set her alarm clock an hour ahead. While Usagi knew the trick, she never bothered commenting on it because, well, it worked! She got up early, she got to things on time, and everyone was happy that she wasn’t late. Still, even if Usagi knew the trick, considering the situation she was currently in? She completely forgot to do it. After all, she liked sleeping in as much as the next person (probably more than the next person, actually)!
Which was why, running through the streets was the blonde bunny, in a bright white and blue dress, crying in dismay: "I’M LAAAAAATE! I’M LATE I’M LAAAATE!" with a bag on her shoulder and a lunch-box in hand. The rabbit was late and had no time to say hello or goodbye to those she was living with, she was late she was late she was late!
So frantic to get to work on time, she didn’t pay attention as she turned the corner...
And promptly smacked into someone, falling backwards and straight to the ground.
"OOOOOOOW!" she cringed and whimpered only a little. She rubbed her back, she paused to catch her breath, and then quickly popped right back up as if she hadn’t just fallen. She was so used to falling, honestly that it wasn’t something she couldn't handle. She didn’t have time to be upset, though, because not only was she late, and more importantly, she possibly just hurt someone!
"I’m so so so so so sorry! Are you okay? Are you hurt?" she had to go but she didn’t want to abandon the person she just ran into. She bowed deeply. "Really, I’m so sorry!"
B: Throughout the Day
Usagi let out a sigh of relief as she had made it on time. The flower shop owner, Ophelia, merely chuckled to herself and commented about how nice it was to have such an energetic girl around the shop.
The older woman was actually incredibly kind to hire her on. Usagi explained that she had just moved in with all of her cousins after an accident involving their parents. Serena Lapin was doing everything she could to support her family, five girls and one boy! Ophelia was an older woman, bent over and needing a cane to walk, and her son and his best friend worked for her as it got harder for her to work by herself, but at seeing "Serena’s" eagerness and willingness to work, her friendly and open nature, well Ophelia commented that it would be nice to have another girl around, hiring the very day Usagi applied.
And, on top of Usagi’s paycheck, she got to take home flowers that were too old to sale or were damaged in such a way that they couldn’t be given to their customers. She had already taken a few damaged roses, plucked off the ruined petals and leaves and stuck them in her hair. But Usagi was also thinking that flower bouquets would be a great way to keep the house smelling lovely and feeling warm.
Usagi, or rather Serena Lapin was ready to work! With her pastel pink apron and the name badge with a little thistle at the end of it, she could face anything. She looked up when she heard the door chime and greeted the guest with a bright smile.
"Welcome to Thistle Do Nicely: A Flower for Every Occasion! My name is Serena, how can I help you today?"

She's been coaxed into at least a little color, by now. Blue, though that's not much of a stretch, really. They'll have to keep working.
There's what appears to be paint on her sleeve and graphite up one arm, but she also doesn't seem to mind it.
When she finally sees Serena, she steps up to the counter.]
Hello. Are you almost done? [After a moment, she expands on that.] I thought we could walk home together.
no subject
Usagi was finishing up counting up the register and putting everything away in the office where Mrs. Ophelia would take care of the rest and lock up for the night. She pressed a hand to her lips as she took the bouquet that had been damaged by one of their customers on accident.
She hopped over to Namine and linked their arms.]
All done! You cam right on time Nora! Let's go! You can tell me all about your day!
no subject
It was alright. Mr. Rockwell said I was doing a good job. I was asked to restock the paints today.
[That explains the painted sleeve. A damaged bottle right out of the box from the factory. One of her coworkers, the one who ran the register, said it happened sometimes. ]
How was your first day?
[She's bright eyed and curious, ready to hear all about what it must be like in a flower store. It must be a nice place to work.]
no subject
It was great!
[Except the part with Rei... but Usagi was keeping that part to herself until she got home where she could properly and privately break down into tears.]
Everyone who came in today was super kind, thankfully. We had so many for bouquets!
no subject
[She says it like a statement, not a question. She's smiling up at Usagi as she talks. ]
Why do you think so many bought bouquets?
[Once again, Namine's utter lack of real world knowledge appears.]
no subject
Flowers can be bought for friends, family, lovers, and everything else! There's no limit. Just a single flower can brighten up someone's day! Flowers don't need a reason beyond telling someone you were thinking of them.
