Tussie mussie....really...how...silly. Who thinks of this terms anyway?

"I think I'll start" she said, trying to figure out what exactly she wanted out of the flowers...which ones to choose? Let's give Jack something easy to interpret, right? Er, probably not.

The concept of picking up flowers was...nice...but having a reason to pick them was...difficult. However, Kaika made up her mind and placed three flowers together...one oxeye daisy, a lavender (which was quite pink, to be honest) and a yellow poppy ('twas so Huffie-like)...

So, the meanings were thought of, but the color combination of the three flowers wasn't...yellow, white and pink seemed made for Bunbury.

"Here you have them...what are your thoughts on this, Jack?" she asked, rather serious. There was no way she was saying tussie mussie.
Jack wrinkled his eyebrows and picked up the flowers that Kaika had laid in front of him. Okkkkk, he knew this, HE KNEW THIS, he remembered reading over this stuff last night--now remembering it was the only issue.

He picked up the yellow poppy first. Yellow poppies, he KNEW he had read over those...he placed the flower back down again. "Ok, erm, yellow poppies mean--oh! They mean wealth, and success. Does that mean you want to be really successful in life? And wealthy? Well, I could see you getting signed by a Quidditch team, no doubt about that," he said with a grin. "Maybe the Harpies? Sooo maybe you picked that because that's what you're longing to be once you graduate?" he suggested.

He picked up the lavender next. "Ok, I know this one--lavender is devotion, right? I guess that could apply to you with Quidditch AGAIN," he said with a small smile. Lately that was the only thing on his mind. Quidditch, Reese, and astronomy. In that order. "You're very devoted to your team, especially after your win last term, and you want to do everything you can to help them achieve success yet again." No need to add in the fact that Jack was going to do everything he could to try and stop that. Tee hee. It was all in good fun, though!

Jack looked down at the daisy and frowned. Ermmmmmm...he didn't know that one. He blinked at it for a good five minutes before shrugging. "I dunno what daisies mean. Did you pick it cause it's yellow like the other one?" he asked in confusion. There were two daisies on the list, which confused him--two different meanings. GAHHH!

Jack turned his attention to that tussle thingy and tried to figure out which flowers to pick for himself now that he had finished Kaika's flower reading. It was weird, trying to find flowers that corresponded with certain meanings. He looked at the meanings in his book before finally walking back to her and laying three flowers in front of her; A daffodil, a white poppy, and a hollyhock flower.

"Ok, go for it," he said with a grin.
