SCAWWY 😱 erin

[concoctive]

The scientific name Campsis derives from the Greek word 'kampe' which means 'bent' and which refers to the branches that bend under the weight of the profusion of flowers. In the symbolism of plants the trumpet vine represents 'a fresh start', referring to the beginning of autumn. The flowers are used to prepare a tea to relieve menstrual cramps, as well as an emmenaogue to promote menstruation. The decoction made from the roots is taken as a tea to promote urination, as well as an antidote for scorpion and snake venoms, although this has not been proven scientifically.

[ we are RUNNING AWAY from the event for a little bit, because all the drinking and eating in the world cannot make up for having your friends and loved ones laughing in your face as they dunk on you.

alfyn knows that he's kind of tenderhearted. he knows he's a bleeding heart. he knows this isn't real.

but it doesn't stop him from wanting to get away from the crowd when he begins hearing the other travelers brutally driving into all of his weakest points. ]

Oh - [ but he looks up, and erin's here on the beach, too. and he takes a deep breath to try and swallow down the distress, put on a smile. ] Had to get away for a bit?

[Erin was here, somewhat distant. She can hear her own acquaintances and people jeer at her, including her family. It's...well, it's rough, really, but there are a few circumstances that make the impact be dampened on her. Still, she's distant, thinking about it. Hearing Alfyn come makes her sigh]

Yeah. You probably noticed but it's become a teary circus around here--

[And then she turns her head to see Alfyn, and something in her tells her someone isn't 100% at his best]

Let me guess, you're here because you wanted a breather from whatever the tea caused.

[It's not that she's lacking in sympathy, it just frustrates her]
