Good day, everyone. I have... a little bit of a predicament I hoped I might ask for some help with. Namely-- well. Naming. My familiar, she-- oh!
[a little chuckle as the light of his familiar glides into the screen and settles on top of his head - feeling for her, a little clumsy, slightly destabilising the camera, but careful as he tries to find her. She settles in his hair, shifting contented colours]
She found me as soon as I arrived but I have been... wary of choosing a name for her. Not least because I've little experience naming things and I fear that if one can have a sense in naming things mine must be terrible! But I have been here almost three months at this point and I'm not sure it is fair she go nameless forever.
I hoped perhaps it might be possible to collect suggestions, that she may choose from - she has not spoken with me, but she has ways of making her preferences abundantly clear...! She enjoys cakes, small candies and fruited teas, and though she tends often to be around me, I can usually tell she has been here or there as she makes wildflower chains.
[not just for Linneus - most anyone he has ever spoken to has probably received a little chain of flowers as well. His favourites are her favourites.
He... is not sure how to finish off this message. A little pause, a light chuckle, his familiar glimmering into gold atop his head]
I-- thank you for bearing with me. If you have any suggestions I - we - would be quite delighted to hear them!

[Well, at least Suzette makes it onto the list.]
The key is to find desserts that also have human names in them. Like Charlotte or Victoria.

That may be it, yes...! So I suppose roll-cake is out...! [looking up as though trying to spot his familiar's reaction.] Soufflé? Bon-bon?
[whether or not he now deliberately throwing out poor choices is up for debate, but he is half-teasing, and the way his familiar bounces in answer is almost as if to say she is in on the joke]
Ah - but more often not it was my master's son who I was troubling for them. [an almost sheepish chuckle] We were close enough in age that I can say we were both children, though he was older - but whatever our ages, he ought not have had to wait on me!
