Ob pulls Ike's Ram into the nursery's parking lot. He follows Pandora as she wanders through the flowers, examining the plants. He smiles, watching her check prices, noting the ones she likes, AND the ones she puts aside JUST because of the price.
He grins at Raina, rolling his eyes at one of the clerks. Ob distracts Pandora, letting Raina do some "exploring" of her own. Moments later, he watches the plants get tagged as sold while Pandora looks over the potted evergreens he suggested as a Yule tree.
"Names... you are thinking of your Mamacita's name? Si... Chloe is a strong name. But what for a middle name? And what, Goddess forbid... if we have a boy first? I am not naming a boy Cletus."
Pandora laughs, wiping tears from her eyes. He blusters, pretending offense. "Don't look at me like that Bruha. Cletus is an acceptable male version of Chloe." he steers her to hay bales and pumpkins. "Hey... I wonder if Nadji knows someone who could turn this one into a coach... like in Cinderella..."
While Pandora is laughing, he turns to an attentive clerk and gives him the address to deliver the plants and things she selects. He hands him a credit card and waits for Pandora to argue.
