Rotor lumbered around the cash desk and followed his customer to the side of the flower shop. A red and white bouquet, he'd asked for. He stroked one tusk pensively and eyed the selection. After a moment he reached forward and started pulling stems out of their pots.

He led the customer back to the cash desk.
"Do you want these wrapped in clear cellophane or something more colourful? That one? And a ribbon? Sure," and, conscientiously, he wrapped up the bunch.
"That'll be $37.50, please," he said.
Hmm. No, I can't quite see it myself.
