toward a lightening of mood

Saira Raza is approached by a nervous looking freshman at lunch...



They shakily hand her a small box and walk away without saying anything, as Wilde very specifically and forcibly instructed this morning.

Yesterday was just a reminder to seize the day, I guess.



Anyway --

Inside is a flower, laid carefully on top of a layer of dirt. It closes and re-blooms periodically, emitting a scent something like jasmine and lavender, and gives off a soft hum. At night, or in shadow, it gently glows.

It should live a while if left alone in its little encasing, but Wilde's nestled a note beneath it with instructions for care. There's another note, too, in his best handwriting:

Saira takes the box from the freshman with a bemused expression; when she opens it and sees the flower, her gaze flicks automatically to the table where Wilde usually sits with his Ebonbuddies. She knows what this is, and she doesn't know if she's excited or terrified.

She is, however, visibly charmed by the flower. She can just see the notes tucked beneath it, so after a minute of just looking at it she lifts it very carefully out so that she can get at them. The instructions are pocketed for later. But the other note --

Saira is stunned, and she sort of wants to cry, and she sort of wants to run out of the cafeteria, and she sort of wants to kiss Wilde, and she sort of doesn't know what to do with any of those emotions. She's pretty sure that she doesn't want her brother (or anyone else, but mostly Kazim, to whom she hasn't spoken once since that disastrous journal conversation) to be watching any of this, so she does her best to look cool, calm and collected while she gathers her things and walks out of the cafeteria without saying a word to anyone.

She leaves her lunch sitting on the table. Oops.
