Welcome to the wild world of plants!

Who: You! … Or just whoever wants to have botany |D
What: The class of sweet sweet plant loving. Botany!
Where: The Greenhouse.
When: January 20th, afternoon.
Warnings: Don't make Erika have to smack a bitch B|


For the interested students or faculty that may have missed the memo, there was a small sign attached to outside of the door leading to the classroom that would have normally housed the botany class.


"Please report to the green
house for class. Thank you.
-Erika


While the snow outside had recently been showing small signs of starting to melt away, it was still quite prevalent. The cold weather season was not yet over, and it made this fact perfectly clear with a chilly wind. Upon entering the greenhouse, attendees would notice that someone had been prepared with those thoughts in mind. Space had been made for all of the extra coats and odds and ends that the students might have been wearing. The benefits of leaving their extra apparel behind would soon be evident-- the warmth in the green house was thriving.

Frequent visitors to the glass building might have noticed that there were some new additions. Those fairly new to the building might just be bowled over by the amount of greenery there really was. It was like a small jungle. It was dangerously easy here to forget that just beyond the thin panes of glass it was still a very snowy, January day.

And there was Erika, sitting on a small cushion amongst the plants. More cushions had been arranged around her. She smiled in turn at each student who came through the door and nodded for them to take a seat at which ever seat they wanted.

"Good afternoon," she greeted once it seemed that most everyone was there. "I hope you've all kept warm… Welcome to botany. The world of flora is often an under-appreciated one in today's society. It is my hope that you will be able to leave this class at the end of term with a better appreciation for it, even if you may already have a high one."

Erika turned, nodding to the tiny, girl-like flower that had been sitting besides her. The pokemon cheerfully went from student to student and handed them a sheet of paper as Erika continued speaking, "Today we will just be an introduction to your learning space. I'm curious to see what you would like to see this semester…"

"Please feel free to explore the green house," were the beginning of Erika's instructions as she motioned towards the wealth of plants around her.

"It is much larger than it appears, I assure you. The students who put it together did a wonderful job. If you're here, you have my commendations… Ah, but I am getting distracted. If there is something that catches your eye, write it down on the sheet provided to you. This is your chance to tell me what you are most interested in learning. I will be coming around if you have any questions."

"Hm? Oh, yes, I'm Fox. It's good to finally meet you in person." Lucky for Fox, he has a pretty acute sense of hearing, so catching Erika's softer talking wasn't too much a trouble for him.

"Yeah, I was wondering about one of the plants here. It had a large red head, with white dots and a rather impressive set of jaws." Fox gestured with his hands, shaping out a circle to represent the size of the plant's head. "What kind of plant is it? I've never seen a carnivorous one before. It's kind of cute pretty intriguing."

Fox smiled as Erika told him the name of the plant. "Heh, that's a rather fitting name." Though still a bit curious about the details of the plant and kind of wanting to talk to Erika a bit more Fox's attention was drawn by her toward the student behind him. That person. That was following him. He was starting to wonder if he was just paranoid, considering all the footsteps he swore he heard behind him in the greenhouse. It's no wonder he didn't see her before, considering her stature and appearance.

Whoops. Caught. "Oh! Um, I'm sorry! I'm Goombella. I was just curious, since I haven't seen you two before. I was doing a bit of research." She held up her Tattle Log to illustrate her point even though she was somehow holding it without any visible hands.

What the hell was she writing about him? Or at least he assumed she must have been, but the pages she displayed were just about a couple of the plants in the greenhouse. Oh well, he wasn't gonna question her about it or anything.

"That's a pretty extensive log book. Well I'm sure you won't run out of research material here, this place is pretty big. I'm Fox by the way. Fox McCloud. It's good to meet you. I arrived only a few days ago so it's not surprising you hadn't seen me."

"Nice to meet you, Fox!" Goombella said. "I'm always on the lookout for things to research. Where are you from?"

"I'm from a planet called Corneria, in the Lylat system. Are you from this planet yourself?" Fox replied, still curious to know who all owned an interstellar ship at this school.

"Oh sure!" she said. "Born and raised in the Mushroom Kingdom! But I'm always looking to go see new places!" she informed him.
