Daffy's tut of disapproval came right after Dahlia's exclamation. Thistle was just being her usual self, but Daffy could easily understand where her older sister was coming from. In between ending things with Noble and starting what she had with Elias, spinsterhood had looked quite appealing. There was a freedom to it, to be able to do what you wanted, when you wanted. Truthfully though, Daff was pretty sure Thistle just hadn't met the right person yet. "And it's not just you," Daff stuck her tongue out playfully at Zinnia.

Before she could start a teasing war, she pushed on to tell the story of how she and Elias met. "Besides the universe simply hasn't dropped anybody into your life like it did for me." Daffy giggled at the memory of Elias falling into her pumpkin plants. "I mean that quite literally by the way. Eli— Mr. Grimstone was testing a new broom model and crash landed into the garden at home," It had been nearly two spring seasons ago now, but things had only progressed to where they were in recent months. "So I patched him up and then offered to get him some pumpkin plants of his own for cushioning and the rest, well, here we are." Daff rather thought the drama of last summer wasn't necessary to share.
