Dorm Log: the millionth revenge

[raw_angel_power]

Who: smosh ocodomy
What: Dorm log! SUMMER BREAK EDITION!
Where: Student and Teacher dorms, and quite possibly beyond campus. Everything is acceptable.
When: The span of July 11 - July 22
Warnings: Imagine college, only with more super mushrooms-- WAIT NO lollipop drugs are the craze these days.

Ripped off the last one and all its friends: Basically, here's what's going down. We all know our characters experience downtime after classes and their busy schedules, and this is a good venue for those kinds of miscellaneous dorm-shenanigans to take place. Not only does it give your characters the easy chance to meet new people in a laid-back environment, but it's a good mechanism for strengthening CR. It's easy!

Feel free to begin in any way you please! Plan with (a) fellow player(s) if you'd like! Or, set up a thread and wait for characters to bite! Whatever you want. It can all be yours if you make a thread. So have at it! Don't let this log get away untagged.

Keep in mind that starting the 17th, the school will progressively be inundated with flood waters.

You think so? I hope I do them justice. I'm not exactly a gardener, you see.

[He rummaged around in his box and hoped that he had something for Ai to use as far as planting went. Ah! He had two shovels, not one! Maybe it was luck. He smiled a little more and picked it out to hand it to her.]

Do you plant things often?

[iaiai]

I can help you keep an eye on them, if you want me to.

[She takes the shovel offered to her, and idly begins to dig a spot for the first of Rhys' plants.]

Hmm... I plant things sometimes. I have my own Pikmin! And I plant other things sometimes, but mostly I just like to be around other plants.

[gentlesaint]

Thank you! [And Rhys gets busy digging holes too.]

Plants are nice to be around, aren't they? I think they're refreshing. Mm, I hope this doesn't come across as a weird question, but... what is it like to be part plant? I never thought to ask Vianca about that...

[Probably because the only time he remembered seeing her as a Pikmin was as a fragile, bedridden mess. It probably wasn't in good taste to ask her how she felt about that while the curiosity was fresh in his mind...]

[iaiai]

I don't think it's a weird question. But, um... [She pauses thoughtfully, carefully perfecting the nest for the plant she has her eye on.] I don't really know. I don't know what it's like to be not like that!

[She takes the first of Rhys' plants and gently places it in its spot.]

I can feel what other plants are thinking... We can communicate.

[gentlesaint]

[Rhys looked at her with fascination.]

I didn't know plants had thoughts to think...! I mean, the idea played through my mind before when I was bored and hadn't much else to do, but... wow.

[Then, he peered down at the peppermint plant he was holding. At first, his face shone with the amazement he first felt, but then it slowly dimmed to a more remorseful look.]

Then... do they feel pain, too?

[iaiai]

[Her expression falls a little, too.]

When a plant is wilting... It's in pain. [She pauses again, then takes a good look at Rhys' plants.] You don't need to worry about your plants, though. They feel a little impatient, but they're not hurting!

[With that, she covers the first plant's roots with enough dirt, gently pats the spot and smiles to herself again when she's finished.]

[gentlesaint]

But what if someone plucks a leaf off a tree, or picks a flower from the ground? Doesn't that hurt them?

[iaiai]

[Ai leans over and lightly pinches Rhys on his wrist.]

It feels like that! [Pause.] It depends on how much you pick. I would be very sick if someone picked my leaf. But a leaf from a big, strong tree is almost like cutting his hair! [Ehehehe!]
