Himaruya and flower language pt.2!
In the latest France illustrations there are three different types of flowers:
Desclaimer: This whole post is made of assumptions. If you have other ideas feel free to share them with me!
Tumblr media
The first two are the ones you can see in the bouquet: Carnations and forget-me-nots.
Carnations symbolize love, devotion, and fascination. Assuming their color (probably a light one) they could either mean deep and passionate love (Red), pure love and grace (white), capriciousness and unpredactibility (purple).
(I also read that they were traditionally used for funerals of loved ones in France but I'm not really sure about this).
Forget-me-nots (obviously) represent rememberance.
The third flower is the lily.
Tumblr media
The lily, also called fleur-de-lys, was used in the French coat of arms.
In the language of flowers lilies mean love, ardor and affection. Lilies are also one of the most commonly used flowers at funerals.
Personally, I find it very interesting how all these flowers have a connection with death/funerals. Let me know what you think about this!

Guys. I am losing it.
So. The end credits. We see Flapjack’s grave. Willow grows flowers around it.
Tumblr media
You know what those flowers are? Blue-purple-white five petaled flowers with a yellow five part center?
Tumblr media
Those look the same, right? You know what those are?
Fucking forget-me-nots
The tattoos memorializing him and connecting the hexsquad. The flowers decorating his grave
None of them are going to forget Flapjack
They’re keeping his memory alive.
Also, forget-me-nots are not just rememberance, they’re also a sign of love and devotion- like flapjacks love and devotion to hunter until the end.

ARTEMIS MILFORD: FLOWER. SEND GIVES RECEIVER A FLOWER. normally the door to his office would be closed, and locked, but hannibal is expecting someone. with his lunch hour approaching, and without a client for another two hours, the doctor sits at his desk, lost slightly in what he etches into the paper below him with a charcoal pencil. clean lines of the arc de triomphe spill from his memory onto the page, nearly done with this drawing, ready to move onto the next. small knock on the door brings his attention in that direction, grin tilting up one corner of his lips as he sees artemis entering his office. ready to greet her, hannibal halts as he stands, watching carefully as she places a small vase of forget me nots onto the corner of his desk. head tilts slightly at the bright blue flowers before gaze moves up to artemis, curious and heavy. 'forget me nots are traditionally connected to rememberance. king henry the vi considered them a symbol of royalty and endurance becaue of their color. now, they are associated with true love and devotion,' eyes shine a bit as he glances over the woman's features, bringing the flowers up to his nose to smell their sweet scent. 'they're beautiful. thank you, artemis,' @averageborn.
