Adrien had already outstretched his arm, and had already started to sever a flowering shoot from the plant. When he was satisfied with his choice, he returned to Val's side; he resumed walking, holding the flowers between his arms.

"They're gorgeous, aren't they?", Val said with a smile. "The first time we came here, and you saw these flowers, you were quite mesmerized...".

"Well, I had never seen them before", Adrien said. "And they really are mesmerizing. The only thing is, they're poisonous".

Val chuckled softly. "Last time, you had said that that is often how it is, with beautiful things".

Adrien gazed down at the flowers. A smirk appeared on his face. "I said that...".

"Do you still think that way?".

There was a long pause before Adrien's reply. "Yes".
