Violet flushed with pleasure at the compliment. She was still new enough to having gotten past being an awkward adolescent and finally being able to have fashionable clothes that complements were a novelty to her, and a very welcome one. Particularly from a nice-looking fellow. And...oh! a rose. Somehow it was really sweet, and more romantic than an ostentatious bunch of them. Violet took it carefully between two fingers and gave it a gentle sniff.
"Thank you, Caes, it's lovely! What a nice gesture. Let's see..." Violet looked down at herself and realized that one disadvantage of a grown-up dress was that there wasn't much room for a corsage, even a single rose. Finally she remembered the temporary sticking charm she'd learned at Professor Tapio's event--but...her wand was in a place that wasn't easily gotten to, certainly not in the middle of a dance floor.
"Do you have your wand with you?" she asked Caes.
"I was going to use that mild sticking charm we used at the Festival of Lights, but I...I can't get to my wand right now."
