Casela had not spoken to Vonn since their meeting about her staying in RTF. Which was a couple of months now. She was dressed in heavy wool and fleece, gloves, thick fur lined leather boots and a matching parka. She considered a ski mask but thought that was a bit much since she would not be going inside. By all accounts Vonn did not like visitors and so she had no intention of going inside. However the cold weather gear had been necessary to procure the little monster in the stasis box. An Andorian Frost Beatle Lily. It would grow to enormous size if replanted correctly and be big enough to eat a man. It only survived in below zero temps. She had no idea if Vonn liked plants but at least it was something that would not die or get damaged from the extreme cold. Even through the stasis box, without the gloves, the cold would burn her fingers.She arrived and watched the small tendrils of could vapor sneak under the door and shuddered. She pressed the chime, expecting a non-existent welcome.

The Breen, as always armed and armoured, stood in the open door filling the space. The helmet lowered and the visor locked onto Casela. “Counselor.” was all the electronic voice said.

“Chief.” Casela nodded. “There is a strange human custom of giving a gift upon aquiring new dwellings, and I’m sure you have received very little that is thought out.” She held up the stasis box. “It is an Andorian Frost Beatle Lily. It is still considered a seedling. It can grow up to 10 feet tall and big enough to eat a man. But it must live in temps at least 20 below zero. But the nectar is toxic but will furtalize the soil it grows in.” She figured it was a toss up if he accepted or not but she honestly hoped she’d chosen something thoughtful.
