MCA #3, Wednesday Evening
Kanan had spent all day not mentioning it. Just kind of going through his day without really bringing it up. He'd gotten some roses for Hera, and that was basically all he was expecting would show up at his door today.
So when the seven orange roses that he'd gotten for her had been spectacularly upstaged by three dozen red roses, accompanied by an all-caps note that left him scratching his head at best, he'd kind of done what he defaulted to back before he'd ever arrived on the island. He put them (and the carnations from Kitty and from Skywalker) into a juice jug for lack of a vase that could handle the damn things, had set them on the kitchen counter, and then had retreated to the living room in order to Not Think About It.
He'd spent a good many years perfecting his ability to Not Think About It. And so the 36 roses had been put out of sight and out of mind until it was time to make dinner.
He stepped into the kitchen, was reminded that they were there and were now taking up most of the counter space, and sighed.
"But really. What the hell?"

And then he spread his hands a little.
"Not that they signed their name."

She came in for a closer look. "They're pretty, though."
Then she noticed some of them had notes to her. She blinked. "Wait, is this a...what is this?" She read the note on the yellow rose and laughed. "Yeah, definitely an Earth holiday I don't get."

Which amused Kanan if only because he'd basically sent Anakin the same damn thing.
It also amused Kanan because if he was thinking about that, he wouldn't be fretting about the ones he got for Hera. That worked out nicely, really.

She went on to the other note, and took a while longer to read it. And reread it. She set it down and smiled as she took Kanan's hand. "I'm so glad. But I didn't know to get you anything."

Besides, he already had more kriffing roses than he knew what to do with.

She glanced at the rest. "Besides, I think we've got enough already. And you don't know who sent them?"
no subject
"No idea," he confessed. "And the note doesn't exactly give anything away."
He plucked it from the bouquet and handed it over.
"Unless you can make more sense of it than I am?"

"I know a few people prone to overdoing it. I don't see any reason why any of them would send me three dozen flowers," he replied, finally. "I don't exactly go out of my way to be a likeable person."
... Kanan, have you met you?

Clearly Kanan didn't get many flowers.
