[Rose looks perturbed, chewing on her lower lip]

I...realize that we all have our concerns right now, but I was--well, I was hoping for assistance?

Valentine's Day is quickly approaching and I want to do something really special for Snow now that we're together. Something beyond the usual flowers and chocolates and cards, although she'll get all three from me.

But of course this depends on whatever we're being put through this month. I'd still like to find some way to make it special. [and her expression turns stern] And if The Doorway chooses to do something truly awful to us, I'll never forgive them!

[and back to smiling!]

In any case, I appreciate your assistance and your ideas most of all. Thank you.

Hmm. Maybe one of her animal friends would be willing, as long as I asked them politely? The horses here are entirely too peculiar.

[velvet_teen]

Does she have lots of animal friends? Are they big?

[nothinglikea]

Some of them are? She has a bear for a friend. How she managed that, I'll never know unless perhaps it was some kind of unknowing magic?

[velvet_teen]

Ride into the sunset on the bear.

Pack a big picnic. You can have it outside because the bear will protect you from monsters.

[nothinglikea]

That's a pretty good idea, really.

I'll need to discuss things with the bear first, of course, but I think he'll be willing since he knows me now.

[velvet_teen]

I am great at ideas!

Tell him you'll bring along lots of fish for the picnic. Food is a powerful and primal bribe for all creatures.

[nothinglikea]

You are indeed! May I ask your name?

I plan to anyway, given the abundance of salmon we have access to. One or two for the bear, a whole one to be split betwixt Snow and I.

[velvet_teen]

I'm Alice.

Salmon is one of the best fish to eat because it is more like proper meat.

[nothinglikea]

It's lovely to meet you, Alice!

Yes, and it needs little dressing to be even better. A squeeze of lemon, perhaps a little dill if one can find it, and it's even more mouthwatering.

Use something red. It's the best color and a romance color. One of those fruits with all the seeds, I've had that before.
