PerseusSilver

When the first 2 gods descended, they fell in love at first sight, and the moon god created several roses to gift to the sun god as a sign of his affection.

Those same roses were then passed down to their descendants, mortals, to take care of them.
Roses are usually red, but the first roses exist in different colors, and whenever a mortal pluck one of the original roses, they are blessed with unimaginable power.

A few of the roses have been found, and several others are waiting for their chosen one, but one, in particular, has never even been spotted, the black rose.

Re: The Last Rose

This is part one, for part 2, if you have more questions, let me know, I will answer them all, in this special, the writing style is a bit lazier, but I'll put in some effort to make it easy to understand.

Author: |I'm too lazy to thank my readers, so I'll just get on with everything quickly. What are your favorite foods?|

Perseus: Every kind of barbequed meat.

Buddy: *barks* Fried fish. Especially when Perseus feeds it to me.

Vince: Fried noodles with beef, currently only Perseus can make it...is it because he's Asian?

Nyra: I like a good fried chicken salad.

Rylee: Chocolate muffins, any muffins will do.

Leilah: I love chocolate chip cookies, whether it's chewy or crunchy, I can't get enough of them.

Lilith: Well, think of me as a predator.

Lilith: Not that kind of predator, but he's my prey, I push him down and-

Ruka: Ice cream, only the creamy expensive ones, not the ones that are full of air.

Maple: Fruits, especially oranges.

Dawn: Pastries, I could never get enough of them. Perseus has been getting a lot of chicken turnovers, and I'm pretty sure that I ate 50% of it.

Jerah: Baklava, such a unique dessert.

Aminu: Steaks with a side of fries and cheesy broccoli, I would order 3 portions to eat by myself and sometimes it's still not enough.

Author: |Since it's Christmas, what's your favorite Christmas item?|

Narrator: I like the mac and cheese.

Author: |You know what? Fine. Go ahead. I'm in the festive spirits.|

Perseus: I've always liked the honey-glazed ham. People usually would not go for that first for some reason, more for me.

Buddy: *Nods in agreement* I love them too, they're also my favorite.

Lilith: Those mashed-sweet potatoes, don't look like it belongs to some, but I say it does.

Nyra: I don't know what that is, but I remember the roasted pork shoulder, that was good.

Rylee: I liked the stuffing, I don't know what's in it, but it's good.

Vince: I've never celebrated Christmas, but among all the foods, I liked apple pie with ice cream on top.

Maple: Yeah, but unlike Vince, I like my ice cream drizzled with honey and caramel.

Leilah: The cookies, there's so many and I usually hoarded them all.

Ruka: The turkey smothered with mushroom gravy.

Dawn: Pigs in a blanket, most Americans don't eat them for Christmas though. My neighbors found it very weird, Anna did too.

Jerah: I don't care for Christmas. Maybe the alcoholic drinks.

Aminu: I remember the heroes inviting me to come to celebrate it, I liked the prime rib.

If you have any more questions, let me know.
