Bacon attempted to disguise his interest in Beosta's response to Shoe's offer by creating a few small berry bushes around the area.

"Well," said Bacon after a pause, "if you aren't going to let me put your homeworld on the to-visit list... How about you suggest somewhere else? Where would you like to go?"

“Dunno.”

Shoe picked one of Bacon's flowers and wove it into the bracelet, then re-offered it to Beosta.

She took it and smiled, sliding it onto her wrist. “Thank you.” 

It was surprisingly well made for a grass bracelet, and looking at the flower made her feel like…

Like a kid again. 

She liked that.

AWWWWWWWW

Do you like it?

“Yeah. I do,” she admitted. How could she keep it from falling apart? Resin, maybe? 

Livetha approved of this thought process.

Shoe smiled. Then had a stupid idea.

Y'know, I wanted to plant some flowers in my garden . . . he said, then waited for her to respond.

Said. He and Beosta can communicate telepathically . . . because of Livetha.

“That’s a nice idea,” she replied, leaning back on her hands. The cool weight of the bracelet settled against her skin. “Flowers brighten things.”

Well, that's the problem. I haven't botany. He smiled at her stupidly.

“Oh. Neither have I.” She wasn’t quite sure where he was going with this.

Shoe stared at her for a moment. He wasn't sure whether or not she'd gotten the joke.

“OH!” 

She turned red. That had taken an embarrassingly long time, but she laughed anyway. 

“That was good. I’m just not good with jokes.”

Shoe laughed as well. It's okay. It was really random. He smiled again. At least some-bud-y got it.

Her laughter approached a shriek, and even after a couple of seconds, she was still snickering.

She’s not had much exposure to jokes, you see. 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

"Oh, come on!" exclaimed Bacon. "That's what makes you fall to pieces? A few terrible puns?"

That makes a lot of sense. 

Shoe watched with amusement. Wow, I didn't think you'd laugh this hard. I was just orchid-ing around.

Even he cringed at that one.

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Bacon wished that Shoe could talk so that he could threaten to gag him.

Still, Beosta’s snort couldn’t be stifled, and she giggled, covering her mouth with her hand. “They’re good. Keep orchidding.” She doubled over at her own stolen joke, laughing so hard she cried. 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

"No one appreciates nonsense humor anymore," grumbled Bacon. "You walk in a room juggling pianos, and no one says an eye!"

He chucked. Wow. Stealing my own joke? How about you leaf the plant puns to me.

“Gladly,” she gasped, wiping an eye. Her grin spread wide across her face. 

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Bacon decided to Narrate a bunch of blueberries. Because he couldn't think of any puns that could be made with blueberry.

Yum! I love blueberries. He grabbed a few and started eating them.

Thanks, Bacon.

Beosta wiped the last of the tears away and picked herself a handful. “They’re really more purple than blue. On the inside, at least. Sometimes green.”
