USER: #E00707 - can we even have green thumbs if there isn't any green

[parodeity]

[ USER: #E00707 in this lovely color ]

A brief announcement, as we’ve all seemed to embrace the trend of sharing important information on this forum: we have successfully begun cultivating a garden.

apparently when he says brief he means brief but anyway
flavo is now plus one flavor station
you could say its flavotown with guy fielderi
or not that you could also say not that
but yeah we just took over a random ass field and planted things
and then used a magical fertilizer known as time shit and also me
but mostly time shit which smells less bad than like bullshit but apparently has the same results
and anyway we used that to make stuff grow faster
you know for fun and profit
and also french fries
and now we are inviting you to help the fuck out because gardening is actually really boring
and also we could use a bigger variety of things to garden
i guess
right
hey how do we garden salt

Salt can be distilled out of salt water, with a bit of time and effort. Or was that intended to be a rhetorical question?

none of my questions are ever rhetorical i always want an answer
unless the answer is something dumb i guess but in that case i can always just make up that someone told me something not dumb
or i can just pretend i never asked
anyway that aside
were willing to probably reward anyone who wants to put in gardening time
like with weeds or things
or like actually giving us neat seeds or whatever
with food that actually tastes like stuff since thats most of what were growing
or just like food which is an important resource if you dont wanna die i guess
but also more importantly than any of that
french fries
because guess what tel made me french fries and theyre the bomb and i can now die a happy man the end
I didnt realize until this moment just how much i missed salt and that kind of warm greasy french fry smell and feeling
its chicken soup for the soul only way more satisfying and also probably less healthy which is what makes it more satisfying
you know you want in on this

That does seem a sufficient bribe, yes. Join the gardening effort; receive french fries. I’m willing to call that my contribution to the cause.

[ despite the fact this is all in dave's lovely red text, he is probably not larping talking with someone else. in fact, the other person is ignis scientia who will also probably respond to things. and as promised they have in fact set up a garden plot in flavo! thanks to dave's dumb time powers things they're growing there are on a month-week scale. for example, potatoes take 2 months but with dave applying some time shit they're taking 2 weeks. the garden currently offers: tomatoes, peppers, potatoes, onions, and wheat. these things all have flavor because they were made from things ignis had already from home! give them more stuff, obviously. maybe earn yourself some delicious french fries! ]

(Color!)

I like the sound of Flavotown!

I didn't realize you could use your power like this on plants, too!! That's so useful. What do you have planted so far?

[parodeity]

tomatoes peppers potatoes onions and wheat
and id never tried it on plants before
so its a learning experience for all of us
ive like cycled a sword through its stages of life but that was different

[inheritance]

You can do that with a SWORD??

...can you do a demonstration or is that too much trouble?

[parodeity]

i dont really mind
its not the sword i usually use that has to do that
bc the sword that i did that with was broken and the sword i usually use now is like
not broken
which is preferable
fuck halfbladekind

[inheritance]

You lost me at halfbladekind.

Anyway, it's okay if you can't do it with the sword you have now! Would you mind if I watched you grow the next batch of seeds instead?

[parodeity]

its one of my strife specibi
ie a thing i can use to fight

but yeah sure feel free
either if people give us stuff to grow this time we can do that
or just go and like plant more seeds sometime this week

[inheritance]

I see! That would explain why none of it sounds familiar.

I have some apple seeds from the forest! I'm guessing growing trees would take a lot more effort than growing the smaller plants like potatoes.

[parodeity]

wait
wait wait wait
you have apple seeds
holy shit come on by
and yeah probably
i dont know how fast i could make those grow
but i can sure as hell try

[inheritance]

The apples tasted terrible as usual when I ate them, but I saved the seeds just in case. What are the chances these will have their color back if you grow the tree this way?

Which part of Flavo are you in? I'll drop by ASAP!

[parodeity]

technically none since im at my house
bc these laptops hate field trips
but the garden is at

[ DIRECTIONS ]

and youre welcome to stop by ruga
and no clue re the trees
itd just be me freestyling and hoping

[inheritance]

Do you want me to stop by your house first? We could walk over to the garden together.

Or we could meet at the garden since you've already given me directions.

[parodeity]

im down to meet you in the garden sure thing
now or in like half an hour?

[inheritance]

Half an hour it is! I’ll see you there!

[And sure enough, Izuku meanders his way over to the garden around that time, crouching down to examine the color plants that Dave’s grown with his time powers.]

[parodeity]

[ half an hour is enough time for dave to stop messing around with his post, and he'll show up pretty much Exactly half an hour from the message. the garden consists of the plants mentioned up ^ there and they are definitely further along in their life cycle than they should be...bless. ]

Hey, man. I feel like I should be shifty and ask if you got the goods?

[inheritance]

[Izuku cracks a smile at that before holding up a tiny box for Dave to take.]

Got them right here.

[parodeity]

So where all did you find 'em? [ he reaches out for the box, opening it to see what he has to work with. he's at least kind of made an area ready to plant them.

you know, where trees would look Aesthetically Pleasing rather than by any other consideration. ]

[unfatalist]

[COLOR because guess what, chums, despite being a blue he's borrowing Dave's computer and account for this.]

Must we really dub the garden "Flavotown". Really.

[inheritance]

Why not? Weren't you the one who came up with the name in the first place?

[...although... is it just him or is Dave suddenly typing in a really different way?]

[unfatalist]

One of us did, at least, but that doesn't mean it's worthy of becoming permanent.

[inheritance]

[Ah, so definitely not Dave. That makes a lot more sense.]

I’m guessing you’re the other person Dave meant when he said “we”! What name would you suggest, since you don’t like the one Dave came up with?

[parodeity]

yes

[ did he take his laptop back just to type this at someone in the same room. maybe. ]

[unfatalist]

Why.

[THIS IS HILARIOUS WHEN YOU CONSIDER THEY'RE JUST BICKERING WITH EACH OTHER BY PASSING THIS LAPTOP BACK AND FORTH WHILE IN THE LITERAL SAME ROOM]

[parodeity]

its a pop culture reference literally no one else will get probably
my bread and fucking butter

[unfatalist]

That's all right. I don't typically understand pop culture references anyway, but I'm an expert at pretending I do.

[parodeity]

thats the best kind of expert to be
we pop culture fanatics thrive on people pretending to know what the fuck were talking about
it makes us feel valued
