Working in the library meant you had a lot of material to read. Books you'd never even thought of reading would cross your path and you might end flipping through them. Alcaeus had found a book on the New York Botanical Gardens while sorting books into their place, and started flipping through it. Weeping trees, cherry blossoms, azaleas, and magnolia trees all filled the pages, with even more kinds of flora in between, and when he'd finished with his library duties and took a break, he found himself thinking about the garden again.
The library was slow, not many people wandered in anymore, and hopefully they wouldn't need him. Praying for the best, he snuck off to the fields and picked one of the many golden flowers that danced through the yellow field, and thought of New York.
The front of the garden entrance was cobbled with stone, little flowers pushing up between the grass along the walkway. The grey path inside seemed to stretch onward forever, and Alcaeus had picked up one of the maps for the garden before walking around.
He hadn't had anything particular in mind, so he'd strolled aimlessly. The trees, short and tall, stretched towards the sun, dark and vibrant green and everything in between. The flowering trees shook softly whenever wind blew by, sending ever-moving dappled light to the branches, trunks, and grass below. The flowers were blooming or getting there, coloring the landscape in bunches of pink and white and yellow and purple.
After walking for a while, he found the magnolia tree garden, and decided to sit under one of them, letting the branches and flowers act as an umbrella to keep the shining sun's rays to a minimum.
((OOC: I'm so sorry that this is a closed rp, we would have loved to let other people join but since kata's so busy it'd just be unfair to the other person if they wanted to post and felt like they had to wait.)) |

Cuddy sat curled up nestled between two large branches of a beautiful magnolia tree, the blooms waving slowly in the slight breeze. His arms were outstretched, tongue poking out from his lips, determined to clip off a small bloom from the tree. He had to be careful so as not to ruin both the branch or the clipping that he wanted for his garden back home, but he was just so worried that he would break something or do something bad to this incredible tree... And he wasn't even really supposed to be here-- he wanted to get back home as soon as he could, but just as he managed to clip off the bloom he wanted, jerking back caused some of the smaller branches to shake, petals falling loose and drifting to the ground.
Or rather, drifting to land on the person who had sat underneath the one Cuddy was currently in.
He gulped, shifting the teeniest bit in an attempt to hide himself and getting ready to possibly fall out of the tree without crushing his bloom and running back to somewhere safe.
