Thankfully, Cecelia missed Adelaide reaching for a weapon at first, shifting sideways a bit so the other girl could also speak without her standing in the way. As it was, she shook her head, trying to indicate that things were alright. Not that she could blame Adelaide; she had panicked and nearly fainted at first sight of the large wolf, herself.
"As do I." Hopefully all was well, but for now, she let Cillian and Adelaide have their introduction.

Adelaide slowly lowered her hand... Hm...
"Yo. Well met and all that I guess..."
She would say very unceremoniously.

"Well met?"
He tilted his head ever so slightly. What a weird way to say hello. But he wasn't going to try and be rude and make a big fuss about it.
"So did you two have something planned or...?"
He couldn't hide his grin and the bubbling excitement in his chest. He hadn't expected to see Cecilia for a few days, and he was super excited to show off some of the new stuff he'd been working on. And he wasn't one to object to a bigger audience either.

"I'm afraid I may have slipped back into old habits when we met," she admitted with a rueful smile. She'd never admit to being embarrassed, but the small voice in the back of her head chided her nonetheless. it was difficult to slip further from formality right after work.
"I don't, at least." She looked to Adelaide. "Did you?" They'd just been walking and chatting, but she had no idea if the other girl had plans afterward.

"I'm still trying trying to find flowers for my Girlfriend."
She didn't typically like to use that word when referring to Shiloh, especially when their relationship status was... what it was... but she didn't like the overtly flirtatious nature of this pretty boy and decided that it was best to prevent any potential unwanted flirtations made in her direction.

"Hmmmmm."
He tapped his chin before looking back to Fenrir who was watching the trio through blood red eyes with a tongue hanging out of it's toothy maw, panting happily, it's massive tail swishing back and forth.
"I actually really like the florists in some of the grocery stores around here. I've received some wonderful bouquets from them after a show. Not to downplay your shop of course."
He'd say to Cecilia quickly with a chuckle.
"But they tend to be open later as well. It might be worth a shot?"

Girlfriend? Cecelia blinked, realizing her assumption had been off. Very off. Thankfully, she hadn't said anything out loud.
"I see. Of course, there are other options if you wanted something today." She nodded once at the mention of other options for flowers, stepping forward and raising up a hand to let the giant wolf sniff it before she'd reach out to pet the giant wolf with a thoughtful hum.
"We could certainly take a look, if you wanted." She wasn't thrilled with offering other business options when Adelaide had come to check out the shop, but who was she to stand in the way of a courtship? She could probably still swing Adelaide coming by another time if she showed she knew what she was about.

"Sure."
She would look at the pretty boy and raise an eyebrow.
"Yo, Imma wager that you go out of your way to do some stupid ass grand displays to woo bitches. What kinda flowers would you suggest I get?"

"Hmmm, well you would know your girlfriend better than I would and what she would like. Though I would suggest not referring to her as a 'bitch' as most ladies tend to not like that. As for grand displays..." He'd smile a bit at that. "It's my job. I'm a stage magician, we do shows at the central theater. You may have heard of me as The Amazing Ardan. Or my teacher The Mysterious Maxwell."
He was pretty proud of how far he'd come in the last few years when it came to both acrobatics and stage magic.

So much frowning. Cecelia was having a hard time believing that the person Adelaide for wanted the flowers for was actually her girlfriend with that kind of language. Maybe it was something she just didn't understand in this world, but if someone else was pointing it out, then it likely wasn't.
She held off on the suggestion for flowers, nodding instead as Cillian revealed his life's work in this new world, an affectionate smile returning to her face.
"It's quite the show. Perhaps the two of you would be interested in going sometime?"
Was Cecelia being a mild hype man? ...Maybe.

Adelaide glared.
"I NEVER called Shiloh a bitch. I was referring to your groupies and floozies."
Her fist clenched. Anyone that dare insult Shiloh was going to get hurt...

Cillian would give Fenrir another calming pat as the wolf gave a small back of the throat growl at the sudden aggression. But he was sure she meant no harm, she was just making ignorant statements about strangers. Bless Cecilia for trying to divert things, but Cillian was going to engage in his own little way.
"It's hard to know who you are referring to. Can you name one?"
He's not sure he'd ever met someone that he'd consider a floozie or a groupie. Stage Magicians didn't tend to have those.

Given the way the conversation was and had been going, Cecelia remained silent, hands loosely clasped in front of her as she waited for Adelaide's response.

She scoffed.
"Can you? Play boys like you are all the same. You see every girl as if they were a walking Flirt and Fuck game you can play. I'd be surprised if you remembered any of their real names."

He had a look of surprise at the allegation before he let out a small laugh, bringing a hand up to cover his mouth to stifle it.
"Oh wow, I sometimes forget how this world is sometimes, and how little stock some of you put in your relationships."
He'd glance to Cecelia with an apologetic smile at the turn this conversation had taken.
"Perhaps I had adopted this worlds style a bit too accurately?"
