So it was a bit ironic that one Victor García Massey was now working as a TA for the Athens campus when he, technically had no solid degree himself. At least, none that had real notarization at least. His skill set had done that for him, thankfully. He hadn't been as lucky with Montreal.

As always, he had a very kenspeckle figure as he browsed the shop with his raggy old backpack that was coming apart at the seams and one strap had perpetually looked as though it were going to come undone for years now and his large professional camera hanging off his left shoulder. His polished but unkempt hair fell across his warm hazel eyes as he moved about the aquatic plants specifically, wondering just how the gillyweed stock on campus was faring since the pricing here was considerably more on budget than what the current goings were in Athens.

He had no intention of purchasing anything potted for himself. His presence in his flat was more of a ghost one and a potted plant implied some sort of permanence. Though he thought that one of the professors he worked with could appreciate one of those potted Chiming bluebells...thus he picked it up to mull over.

"Charming, aren't they?" The Chiming bluebells. Mariana moved closer to the stranger, a smile playing on her lips. The coloring of the bluebells was beautiful and the scent was lovely, not too overpowering like some of the other flowers. She breathed in deep and was reminded of spring almost immediately, her favorite season by far. "A gift for someone?" Or perhaps he was a plant lover like she was. Either way, she was giving her seal of approval on his choice.

"Sorry," She added after a moment, it only just dawning on her that he might not want the unsolicited opinion of a lady he'd never met before. Honestly, she just couldn't help but comment when it came to plants. "I didn't mean to pry." She grinned a bit sheepishly and took a step back.
