Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake is sitting in Sherwood Florist. It's a slow night, as she stares at the newspaper in front of her. "Oliver Queen Seen With New Girlfriend!" She never thought she'd see her OWN picture on the newspaper. It's rather... humbling. There's a story about her and how she owns a flower shop. And no mention of her... night job. Most of the details are right at least. This is a bit overwhelming...

Human Torch has posed:
             BOOOM            

"Oh God...oooohh god. Flowers...I need flowers...i'll take that one and and that one and and..wait....waaaaiii...I need Sherwood."

"WHOO' Sherworld.

"HEEEEERE Shrery shery wood..." then frantically,

"Do they need food...heat....do I have to sit on them like an egg? Hellp....heeeelllpp."

Johnny Storm is in his Fantastic Four costume by the by.

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake just stares. "Just calm yourself," she statse. "I have plenty of flowers. And..." She then goes pale. "Johnny Storm?" she asks blankly. "Aren't you supposed to be like thousands of miles away?" she asks blankly as she gets up, wearing a simple teal dress as she moves towards you. "Just take a deep breath, and what do you need flowers for?"

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm runs over to Dinah and hugs her and stepping back he says taking deep gulping breath's inbetween.

"No time for autographs," *gasp* "I need flowers. I need what ever flowers you have ...can you transport your whole building?"*Gasp* *Gasp*

He puts a hand up to pause her if she is going to speak.

"Look, my 'GIRL...FRIEND,' he emphasis, "Lives on the East Coast at school, but my 'GIRL....FRIEND...' he emphasis again, is from here." he points directly at the ground.

"I -TOLD- me 'GIRL....FRIEEND..', you get the picture, "That I would get her flowers *Gasp* *Gasp from her hometown."

"And my friends call my Jah'Storm or J Sizzle....please pick one."

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake ponders. "Alright. You are putting a LOT of stress on the phrase 'girlfriend.'" She shakes her head. "Anyway. How serious is this relationship, and how long has it gone on? Oh, and how are you going to fly them back? Mr. Storm, your normal means of transport - I've seen your team in action. If you try to buy a bouquet, and fly them home using your powers - you won't like the result. My flowers are delicate living creatures. They don't like an inferno..."

Human Torch has posed:
Johnny Storm drops to both knews, "Oh thank you...thank you," he being to bow.

"I am not worthy...we are not worthy and Ben Grimm is certainly -NOT- worthy." Then there is a,

HUGE

PAUSE

Johnny tilts his head and says..."They're alive?"

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake nods. "Yes. I keep my flowers on the plants until they are at the peak of freshness, they I carefully clip them and sustain them in water with nutrients to maintain them; the refrigeration prolongs the process." She then raises an eyebrow. "Oh wait, why did you mention Ben Grimm all of a sudden?" she asks, eyebrow raised. This puzzle is being unraveled.

Human Torch has posed:
"Cause he is a big dummy unworthy of anything, you can write him a letter and tell him I said that, actually please do," Johnny gafaws slapping his knee. Then pausing again,"Hey, I think I know you too. Let me think here. Hmm..stuff that happens out here on the westcoast is mega boring. I kind of never thought you all would be here this long."

He rubs his chin then snaps, "Yeah..that rich dude from that tropical island he bought and stayed on for all those years. Yeah, I think they wrote a musical about him...no..noo..it wasn't Shrek... Dancing...Queen...Queen..queen...mmamma mia let me go..umm..."

"Got it. Oliver North. That's your guy?"

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake just shakes her head. "What is wrong with you? You can't be this stupid." She shrugs. "It's Oliver Queen, who's my new boyfriend." She winks. "You know, the head of Queen Consolidaetd. It's weird being famous for who I'm dating though." She then asks, "So, does this 'girl friend' of yours have a specific flower?" she asks, air-quoting the word 'girlfriend'. "Or have you two been datnig long?"

Human Torch has posed:
"My who?"

Then Johnny's panic kicks back in.."oh Oh."

"My GIRLFRIEND has been my GIRLFRIEND for a few months, but I told her that i would have this done by the day. Do you have anything fireproof to carry it in? Can I take you fridge," he points in that direction then he says, turning around in a full circle pointing at everything he sees.

"Do I need that? Or that? And that? Or that? With that? and that? and that?"

He is pointing at random things..he may have pointed at a window and the shop sign then back to the sign.

"I have to have that for proof. How Much?!?!"

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake just stares. "I don't offer fireproof wrappings. And no, you can't have the sign, or the fridge, but I can offer a custom Sherwood Florist vase." She smiles faintly. "I'm really not sure what you intended to do here. I would recommend using the Zetaport to get back to the other side of the country." She smiles faintly. "Perhaps you can rent-a-car so you can have them transported in a way that won't burn them up."

Human Torch has posed:
"NO, No, you don't understand."

He rubs his chest, this part can be as cool asa babies bottom," while points at his feet, "Those can be like a Jet engine.

He demonstrates by on putting his nose onf fire

"TA DA!"

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake nods. "Oh, fair enough. How long does ittake you to cross the country? That might determine how I package the flowers - and I still don't know what flowers you need. You might need to figure that out."

Human Torch has posed:
"UUmmm, can I have one of everything?" Johnny asks rubbing his chin.

"OH. OH and do you have any big ugly orange ones that I can give to Ben?" then with a sigh of relief he looks at his watch then looking outside he says,"Why is the sun still out, it's almost 10 o'clock?"

And then leaning one hand on the fridge he says, "You wanna guess how long it takes me?"

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake shakes her head. "It's seven o'clock. You're on Pacific Time, dear." She then points to a big hibiscus flower. "I don't have any ugly flowers. That's my biggest orange flower." She smiles faintly. "Does she have a favorite color?" she asks as she begins to prepare the vases. "I can theme it after that."

Human Torch has posed:
"WHAT?!?!?! You have a different sun??!?!?" Johnnny starts counting his fingers then says so if your sun is at 7 o'clock and -MY- sun is at 10...then...I gotta go!"

"Hurry..hurry..gimme purple, red, white and the big ugly one!" he pulls out a card in a panic.

"I am so gonna have a talk with YOUR sun."

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake just groans softly. "Don't you realize how timezone work?" She sighs as she packages the hibiscus separately and makes a bouquet of various purple, red, and white flowers, mostly roses and tulips. She then rings it up with the custom vases and tells you teh total.

Human Torch has posed:
"Take the card...here...I don't care. I don't care. I gotta go,"

Johnny starts paddling his feet in anticipation.

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake smiles as she runs your card. "Here's your receipt, and a pamphlet about our other goods and services," she states, still having a puzzled look on her face. The famous Johnny Storm can't be _this_ stupid, can he?

Human Torch has posed:
"Thanks!" Johnny turns and runs out the door and you hear, "FLAME ON" a WHOOOOSSSSH!

A little bit later he is back and says,"

"Hey um, if thinks with you an Shrek ever breakdown Miss North you know, I'm only near the other sun. You know how Batman has one of those cool spotlights, well I can get one for you here that puts up the Fantastic Four Logo."

He clicks his teeth then puts the phone gesture to his face then mouths 'Call Me'

Then he panics and bolts out and again you hear "FLAME ON"

             WWWWWOOOOOOOOSSSSSSHHHHH

Black Canary has posed:
Dinah Drake just watches that lovable moron leave. She shakes her head, then starts flipping through the USA Today to see if there's any news on Johnny Storm, hmmmming happily.
