[ let's say post bald because you're right he would Not appear. his tail looks a little fuller when he wanders by, though, so maybe that's a nice side-effect.

his ear perks up when she says his name, and he smiles. ]

Of course. Hello Shadowheart. [ he'll come join her! and settle down. ] What are you doing?

Just thinking of home. Trying to remember things more clearly.

[he can see in her thought bubble a vision of night orchids blooming.]

From:

[ glances up at it... ]

I feel as though we're sorely in need of that. [ reminders of home. a beat. ] That's a beautiful flower.

From:

sacredpath

Thank you. Night orchids, they're my favorite.

[showing a little more of an image - the shadow cursed lands, darkness everywhere, but a few flowers blooming.]

From:

[ a pause, as he looks at them. ]

The only remaining beauty in a cursed land... [ Poetic, a little. ] Resilient, just like you.

I wonder if they can be grown here, in our garden.

From:

sacredpath

[blushing a bit at that. very sweet.]

We could try, but they only tend to grow in pitch dark environments. Caves and the like.

From:

fried

Hmm. I wonder if I could simulate that somehow. I've never grown something in the dark before.

I could use a challenge. My own favorite flowers are not nearly as tricky.

From:

sacredpath

I would try to help you, if you really wanted to attempt it.

What are yours?

From:

fried

Chrysanthemums, in general. I couldn't tell you why. I suppose the shape is appealing to me.

I would love to try, though. I think we should.

From:

sacredpath

Where shall we get the seeds, do you think? If we asked the angels?

From:

fried

I could probably strike a deal with them.

Though, I might just see if the greenhouse has them. When I put it together, the idea was that we'd all be able to find seeds from home there without a problem. I haven't tried to grow seeds from another world yet, somehow, so I've never checked...
