all the ways I could fall

31st January, 1892 — The Florist Potts
Thistle Potts/Jack Dorset
When he had gone from seeing Miss Potts as a friendly face at the occasional event to this – stopping by with the express intention of seeing her – Elias wasn’t sure, but it had become something of a habit, hadn’t it? Perhaps it had been her fault, for bringing flowers, planting up his garden: now he was used to having them there and thinking of her.

So he could always browse the florist’s briefly – all newly reopened now – see her casually, and leave again with a new bunch of flowers to brighten the workshop, pretending it was just an errand like any other. Admittedly, today he had also brought a bouquet of sorts with him – although of sorts was the term, because really it was a bundle of twigs tied up with yellow ribbon. She was interested in his work and interested in plants, so – he had put together a mix of types of tail-twigs as if in an arrangement, so that she could see the ash’s paleness and the dark of cherry, the different shades of oak, curving willow, the zig-zag of beech. He had been almost pleased with it upon setting out, but – at the moment, with it resting awkwardly in the crook of his arm and Daffodil not actually in the room to receive it, he was growing less convinced of the idea.

“Hello,” he greeted all the same, with a friendly smile and a quick glance at the Potts girl on the shop floor. And this was the Miss Potts, of her sisters – Thistle, eldest of the unmarried girls. The other was Dahlia; Calla, the quidditch-player, was still at school. (He had been here – and Daffodil had mentioned them – often enough to know of them all; and he was sure he remembered once stumbling along the pitch-dark streets of Hogsmeade with Miss Thistle Potts in tow, a few years ago.)

Elias suspected she could guess why he was here – or rather, who he was here to see – without help, so for the moment he just feigned interest in some of the fresh greenery they had, hoping she might show mercy on him and take the hint without his needing to ask after Daffodil outright.
