Can there be peace..?

[Between the hospital and the battle, Volya's return to base was less than graceful what with Interitus slouching in and lazily grounding itself before Volya just flopped out of the creature before gently being lowered to the floor where he proceeded to lie facedown on the ground and is very unwilling to get up. Too tired. Of course Interitus wasn't too happy with that for reasons, and thus a vine proceeded to poke him in the side.]

Mmrgh... not now. go way... wanna rest.

[Poke. poke. poke.]

Water you later. Lemme sleep..

[PokePokePokePokePokePoke.]

Okay okay... geez..

[Volya struggles to get up, stumbling and grumbling over to the watering can a short distance away before returning to drizzle its contents on his partner, who cooed happily... comment on the ridiculousness of what you're seeing?]

[Asagi watches this scene with a "I'm not even weirded out anymore" face.]

I'm surprised your plant creature can't just grab the can and water itself.

[mistaken_for_monster]

He can. He's just likes other people to do it.

[This earned a slightly affronted noise from Interitus.]

-I could stop watering you if that's how you think.-

Tbthhhhht.

-That's what I thought.-

[cloningblues]

You can understand it? What did it... he... just say?

[mistaken_for_monster]

Its... kind of less understanding what he's saying... more like I know how he feels... its weird.

He was kinda annoyed by me saying he's too lazy to water himself, but he took it back when I said I'd stop.

[cloningblues]

"Weird" is selling it short. I didn't even know it's possible to have a pet plant monster.

So the watering is less necessary for his survival, and more like throwing a dog a treat for good behaviour?

[mistaken_for_monster]

I guess. I can't really rub his belly or scratch his ears that easily... I mean... does he even have those?

[This earned a quizzical noise from Interitus... which tried to find out the answer and ended up rolling backwards and bonking its face into the wall. Thankfully there was no permanent damage on either end.]

... And I'm thinking that might be a good thing.

Did he just try to look at the side of his own head? Maybe you should teach him what a mirror is...
