Come on this way, then.

[The sound flickers out again; his footsteps are silent as they move through the forest, until they come to a scattering of what looks like some cross between chard and lettuce, the leaves a very dark green]

[The sound comes back, for him to see]

Recognize it?

[ childe changes into a fox and leaps onto his shoulder, letting him bring him to the small clearing of strange flowers. he hops off and changes back, setting a hand on his hip as he gazes down on it. ] Unfortunately not. But if it grows up in the cold, then it shouldn't be too temperamental. [ famous last worlds. ] I want to bring some of it back with me.

Sure thing. It grows pretty good, if you get the roots.

[He bends to do just that, unhitching a tool from a metal harness strapped to his thigh to dig them out]

[ childe moves across from him and kneels, digging a circle around the plant, so eddie can more easily get to its roots. ]

[He pulls out a little square of cloth to wrap around the roots and ties it off, keeping the dirt in]

[It's like he's used to taking live plant samples or something]

There ya go. Let's get you a couple of these fellas.

…thanks. [ he smiles at the plants. ] I’m not much of a gardener, but I made a promise, so I intend to do my best. Any tips you can give me about these little guys?

They grow flowers out the middle if you keep em long enough.

You can get seeds from those.

[ nods. ] I'll be able to make a small garden then. I may owe you more liquor after all of this, haha.

It helps to have em close to home.

If you want to come round Mouse sometime and take a look at how we've got ours set up, we've mostly worked out the rough spots on what grows good by what.

I'd like that, thanks. I can bring some booze and some food. What do you guys like?

Trade for the lesson, huh?

Well -- don't go overboard. I ain't a farm boy or nothing, I just know what I picked up since we got here.

...well, how about telling me your favorite thing to eat here. I'll see what I can do with what we have. Not to brag~ but I'm a decent cook.

Well, I'm awful partial to a good potato.

Do you like soup? I could make a baked potato soup.

I ain't sure how you bake nothing in a soup, but it sounds real good.

I'll take care of that part. You just need to let your mind be blown.

Oh, now I'm looking forward to it.
