Lily's dewdrop eyes widened at the chaotic, and rather dramatic, entrance of the new customer. She was frozen in place, holding the flowerpot in her leaves above her head to keep it from falling to the ground, though her entire being shook with terror. "There, there, Lily. It's okay," a tranquil voice called from the counter. Soon at the Lilligant's side was the storeowner himself, who plucked the pot from his dear pokemon before she accidentally let it drop to the ground. As soon as Vic arrived to her rescue, Lily quickly hid behind him, her soft cries trembling like leaves in a harsh wind. "And uh... Are... You okay?" Vic wasn't sure what to make of this clumsy man, unaware that klutzes like him really did exist in real life.

Yup, that was him: the storeowner employee of this place. Vic still wasn't sure to make of the ditzy customer but simply offered a nod. "That's me. How can I help you?" Lily kept her curious eyes on the customer from the safety of Vic's back, entranced by his animated mannerisms.

He listened to the customer ask for some flowers with some meaning behind it. Easy enough, but why was his manner of speech so strange? Vic stopped himself there. You know what - if a customer came in like that and didn't speak in a strange manner, he probably would have found himself to be somewhat disappointed in the lack of consistency in his eccentricity. "I can do that. What sort of message are you hoping to send?" Vic couldn't believe that he was secretly hoping that the customer wanted to send some sort of zany message to his friend, already bracing himself for what sort of request this... unique customer would have.

The pokemon's face mirrored her owner's look of disenchantment as they stared at the customer; it seemed that Lily too was enchanted by the customer, only for both their expectations to fall flat on their face... Much in the way the customer had almost fell on his. "Yeah I can do that." It seemed that it was difficult for Vic to leave his discontentment out of his voice.

Lucky for the customer, Vic's immense and overwhelming disappointment soon washed away as he began to brainstorm on what sort of flowers he could use in his requested arrangement. It was further fortune that Vic was too engrossed in his thoughts, even if Lily had caught the customer's gaze though it had lasted for mere, fleeting moments. Unsure of what to make of it, she began to tug at Vic's shirt to break him out of his stupor. "Hmm?" Vic sounded a little dazed when he responded to his dear pokemon before he returned his attention to the eccentric customer.

"'Make bank', huh? I'm not too sure if I have a flower that speaks so casually but peonies are what come to mind first. Perhaps purple in color?" He returned to his thoughts. "But if you want something a bit brighter than that, I could also offer you gazanias. They aren't called treasure flowers for nothing." Vic flashed a confident smile that faded ever so slightly at the cheeky grin the customer gave him. No. No, remember, this guy almost broke your door trying to get his ass through it, and if that ass matched the rest of him--

No. No. Focus. Flowers. He's here for a friend and wants to congratulate them. "If you're looking for a bouquet, I can intersperse some carnations... I'm thinking maybe white?" Vic hummed to himself, trying to build the arrangement in his head.
