just going to root somewhere and let birds shit on him

but trees can't hug :c

they can't :c

but that also cant fuck up

susan doesnt care about that part

what did you end up taking for a change?

you never actually told me

i'm guessing something to do with roots

lol yeah i was thinking instead of toes and fingers roots and also elongated torso/limbs

and then i was going to see if i could drop some points and use this as a catalyst to give him photosynthesis abilities

oh and also some of the leaves in his hair are giant rose petals now

when Aki mentioned elongation, I joked that the story we'd be using around him would be 'The Giant Turnip'

WE NEED MORE HELP TO PULL LAUREN OUT

yeah i'd take it as a catalyst for that

honestly Steven is going to need to give Lauren a hug because he's lived that life before

oh no thats cute

he will gladly take hugs its actually easier for him to talk to kids than adults most of the time

though hes bad at both

Steven wasn't totally sure what happened to Lauren cause like

when he came back into the room after Lion teleported he could like

feel the empathic vibes. but he wasn't actually sure of the details

yeah he was planted and thought he was dying for like a day

dont tell susan that tho lol

its ok susan thought he was dead anyway

sorry lauren but carly didn't know if he was Magic Buried or Buried Buried

MAYBE HE WAS DEAD MAYBE HE WASN'T DEAD

i'm honestly surprised that more people weren't immediately like "welp he's dead"

me too lol

kya said susan was shocked when joker suggested he might not be in their radio thread

LOL

or carly i cant remember who

yeah like. that would be the usual assumption about being burried alive

it wasn't carly that's for sure jkghndfjkgh

she heard buried and was like

'mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....mmm...'

it actually was carly

"what are the odds we'll go to unearth him and it will be partially decomposed corpse"

when carly said like... what if we dig him up and he attacks us

susan was like wait

he might not be dead???

found it

omg she did....
I mean to be fair, it was RQ so I guess
MindslavePlants came to mind First, then

YEAH...

everybody's brain just went direct to turnip

to be fair Steven did go all "THE ROSE MONSTERS ARE PEOPLE" JUST PRIOR

and in Carly's case it's just common faerie muckery sense

'they did something??? THEY'RE TOTALLY MINDSLAVES NOW or d ead ' thanks carly

i mean, that's fair

'friend disappeared? they're probably a minion of the local bad guys now'

it's right often enough

lmao yeah, like, joker would take one of their own dying to a bad guy to be one of the better options, so that means he doubts it would ever be right

how refreshing it would be for them to just lop someone's head off

XD what a morbid conversation

'just once, let someone die'
