[F4A] mystery & romance - cursed florist
hihi! i'm nonbinary but this character is F (well. F-adjacent) so the ad is F4A.
about me: i've been rping a while and sit somewhere around lit. like, 200 to 400 words a reply? also, close third person. past tense is my default, but present tense slips in when i'm excited (sorry;;). oh, and i mirror length loosely!
the character:
- cîrche. 28, panromantic ace, she/they interchangeably.
- owns a flower shop, selling normal bouquets.... but also selling "messages" (bouquets with a message centered around flower-language). most customers just want roses and she finds this VERY tiring.
- she's dying of a hanahaki-like condition. ideally already known in-setting, so that everyone knows this: flowers bloom (supposedly) from sin. one lily has taken an eye. vines around the ribs.
- at six years of age, she woke up covered in her mothers' blood with no memory of the night and a very clear memory of an angel. she's been flowering ever since.
- cîrche is charming & warm, but with mood swings. when she's stressed she quotes scripture at herself, an amalgamation of verses from every faith she's ever learned of.
- she is not a murderer, however she has never once been able to prove that to herself.
what i want:
- slice of life with TEETH. someone who becomes a regular, possibly finding cîrche intimidating, yet they keep coming back.
- slow burn.
- if you want actual plot: the murders are unsolved and i don't have an answer yet, so we could actually build one together.
- setting: deliberately vague! modern fantasy, modern with JUST the hanahaki-like disease, low fantasy, ... -> your pick :D
- you: decent grammar, ocs over canons!
- that's it. haha. send help i'm too autistic and socially anxious to post this aaaaa
