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

[ 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! ]

[This instantly catches the attention of another would-be gardener who salvaged her cottages' garden patch. Also color.]

You had a harvest already?! That has to be some amazing fertilizer!
I've been trying to grow things as well!
I only have seeds that I've found around town or collected from plants in the forest. I don't know how useful they would be since they still don't have color though.

(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?

You can do that with a SWORD??

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

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?

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-04-06 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
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.

[personal profile] inheritance 2018-04-06 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
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!

I don’t know how to garden, but I’d like to learn, especially if it could benefit everyone in a tangible way.

...but I don’t know what french fries taste like.

tl'dr
what do i need 2 do 4 french fries from u
join gardening effort butt like
what specifically

[ coming from the guy who ignored the ominous message from mister f, he's willing to work here since he knows what the reward is. ]

[personal profile] keeneye 2018-04-06 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Honestly! I thought I was doing a good job just clearing stuff out and tilling the soil. I need to step up my game!
That's what I'm hoping for! Leafy greens really aren't appetizing when they aren't green. And when they taste like paper.
Maybe we can discover a secret green part of town that will help out all these plants.

[Holy shit. Also (color)]

I'm pretty sure I'm willing to do a lot of gardening work for the sake of french fries.

I don't know anything about gardening but I'll learn.

Yes, as it turns out, Dave is quite the asset to gardening.

How long ago did you plant your own garden? I presume it must be recent.

Really. You've never had matchstick-sliced potatoes fried in oil before?

I'm not doubting you, mind, I simply find it a bit curious.

That depends on your individual skillset, I think. Do you have any particular talents that might be useful toward the cause?

Fortunately, potatoes in particular are fairly easy to cultivate — and the more potatoes, the more fries. In theory.

How are you with a knife?

sup guy who ain't dave
it'd make more sense if u saw it but short version: like 10% chance i can pull the water out of salt water
10, maybe 20

If you mean for cutting potatoes, I've had a lot of practice in the kitchen. If you mean for anything else, I can't say I'm great with knives, but I could probably learn.
