thistle name: Valentia [ Val en she uh ]
barn link: The Ailpean Barn
prompt: Valentia loves to be given lots of attention. She expects a rose to be given to her within the first 5 seconds of talking at the front door. Along with the flower, she would take nothing less than a box of chocolates, a white limo, and the date must have on a nicely pressed suit. She wouldn't want to be caught with the riffraff, now would she? Once they get to the 5-star restaurant, the date will kindly open the door for her, bow to her, praise her, and pay for all the delicacies she can and will order. If they aren't broke by then, Valentia will consider them. c:

thistle name rosette
barn link x tartan

prompt rosette's ideal valentines date is preferably with someone special to her. someone she has been going out with for a while. she wants to spend the day feeling comfortable and loved, not nervous with first date energy.
her ideal day would probably involve going somewhere important to her relationship. rosette's love language is definitely quality time, so by spending the day reminiscing together would be all she really wants in a date. rosette has always been a bit shy and definitely gets stressed out easy - but to spend the day with someone she cares about, doing something relaxed would be perfect for her.

prompt:Song of a rose. Song or Rose for short prefers that her partner doesn't shower her with gifts, but rather love. She loves nothing more but to feel loved and appreciated. Quality time is most important to her, so even takeing long walks along the beach, a lush meadow of flowers. And just her date by her side. And if her date is so kind as to gift her books...she will absolutely cherish them to death. Afterall what is more lovely then spending the night beneath the stars, book in thier (hooves?) And in each each other's company.

The sun was starting to fall, gentle fingers of golden light sending the first hints of shadow across the field.
Heather looked up with a soft moo of surprise; how had it gotten that late without her noticing?! If she didn’t get herself together, she might be late! Without a moment to lose, she hurried off to prepare; it was Valentine’s, after all.

Hair done, hooves polished… There, now she was ready. Heather took a deep breath, pride and nervousness filling her lungs with the crisp evening air.
As she walked, she ran through the evening’s plan in her mind; arrive—hopefully on time!—at the crest of the hill, graze together as the sun goes down, and then a moonlit walk through the flowers. Simple, but the classics are classics for a reason, right?

~~♥ ♥ ♥~~

Dawn’s gentle blush was upon the clouds by the time Heather returned. Lying down in the fresh straw with a grateful sigh, she thought back over the night. It had been… Perfect. Absolutely perfect…!

She had arrived just as her date did, and they had watched the sunset together, sharing jokes and each other’s company while the light faded into the water far beyond the seacliffs. Full of sweet hay and sweeter conversation, the pair had walked together through the blooming gorse, the flowers’ faint coconut scent perfuming the air. When her date had presented her with one of her namesake flowers, Heather had been utterly overcome, and at the memory of the gesture, she felt her cheeks once again burning bright.
As she drifted off to sleep in time with the sun’s arrival, she wondered if she would see her date the following night for another walk; it truly had been a perfect evening!
