It's time, it's time for tea!

[Stanley is inside his little cave with a great many plants in it; quite a lot are NPC talking plants doing their thing. What he says sounds innocent until he hefts an onion up.]

Let us enjoy!

[Stanley puts said onion in his mouth and rears back like he's taking a sip.]

I made it a bit too strong...

Don't think that's how onion wine works.

[twobloomsup]

It's supposed to be steeped first, right?

[Not when it's an ONION, Stanley.]

[material_guy]

I guess. You kinda boil it for a while, then you put the onion juice or whatever in the thing to age with the yeast stuff. You gotta let it get alcoholic or somethin', not drink it right away.

[twobloomsup]

So THAT'S what I'm doing wrong! Heehee.

[Stanley walks over to a small box labeled "yeast stuff", puts the onion in a bag, then puts that in said box.

Then he adds water.]

I'll have to wait for my chance to move this to a more secluded place. A watched pot never boils, after all!

[makewayforroze]

Stanley, that's not...Is there a reason you're trying to eat an onion from a cup?

[twobloomsup]

An onion?

[He looks very closely]

Oh! It must have drank my tea!

[...yeah.]

[makewayforroze]

Oh, I never knew you could bring them to life, too!

[twobloomsup]

When onions come to life, they usually get others to not pay attention to them! That makes it hard to get to know them.

[Stanley's acting somewhat weird.]

[makewayforroze]

[That entire scene is weird.]

I don't understand. When did they come to life?

[twobloomsup]

Just this morning! I didn't even have to do anything.

[makewayforroze]

Does it happen very often on your world? I wonder if there's a virus?

[twobloomsup]

Only if I make them that way!

[Translation: yes Roze, there is a Santa Claus virus.]

Sorry this is so late

[makewayforroze]

Then you did bring them to life?

Irony. :<

[twobloomsup]

...you know, I don't think I did.

[It's only a mystery to Stanley, clearly.]

[makewayforroze]

If this doesn't happen in most worlds, maybe it's a virus. I've not seen other people with moving plants, though.

[twobloomsup]

A virus that brings plants to life? Heehee! It's a good virus, then!

[Sorry, Roze. Stanley's too out of it to see the virus for what it really is.]

[makewayforroze]

[Roze doesn't see it as a bad thing, either.]

It does sound like a nice one. They're friendly, aren't they?

[twobloomsup]

They sure are!

[makewayforroze]

Sometimes, the dangers can be hidden, so be careful. But right now, it really does look like fun.

[twobloomsup]

It is fun! And I have an idea on how to make it even more fun.

[Stanley snaps his Thumb, which hums and glows like it always does. What is he planning?]

[makewayforroze]

[She's not sure but she's curious. Rather than interrupt him, she'll watch silently, waiting to see his plan unfold.]

[twobloomsup]

[Stanley puts the hammer his Thumb down, and what look like cabbages form and sprout.

That is, if the cabbages had what look like brightly-coloured water balloons in them. Stanley picks up a red one.]

Sometimes, you just want to see something new!

[And with that, he throws the red orb at a wall, which splatters dye coloured just like its container all over it.

This will end well.]
