[ So nice... too nice for someone like them, right? ]

[ But wait. They're not at war anymore, not in a world that tries to tear them down in every which way. Would it really be so terrible to try to follow it this time?.. ]

[ Levi blinks at the sudden information blurb about the apparent insect-eating-plant, not quite following but happy to hear Hange be excited about anything anyway, his expression softening a little again before he's giving them a suspicious look. ]

How big is this animal-eating plant?

[ HE'S ALREADY SUSPECTING THEY WILL USE IT FOR SOMETHING NEFARIOUS but it's all in the name of banter of course. He's definitely coming with them. ]

[titanscience]

[This really is the second chance none of them thought they would receive. What better way to spend it, chasing after all the wonderous things that can give life meaning, be it creating new memories with your best friend, being able to try peaches for the first time, or in this case growing murder plants.]

Huh...? It's small, like this.

[Hange holds out their hands, forming a gap between them that is maybe eight inches wide, give or take.]

It's too small to eat anything substantial! So things like Parsley will be safe. They eat bugs! Like I said- neat, right?

[wingbound]

[ Absolutely, all of that. And also wetblanketing said best friend when they get too overzealous about growing murder plants. ]

Sure. And it's not going to grow ten times that size if you feed it something weird?

[ JUST MAKING SURE. ]

[titanscience]

As far as I know nothing like that happened.. but you never know with the magic in this world, right? What if there's somehow magical soil that I don't know about! Then it might grow to be three meters tall!

[Just imagine Levi! Isn't it great!]

Heh.. just a thought. If something like that really exists, I'll be sure to use it on your tea, too.

[wingbound]

[ YEAH HE'S ALREADY WINCING from the mental image of a titan-sized carnivorous plant but the rest is just a punch below the waist. He gives Hange a long, hard stare. ]

Oi. Spoken like somebody who wants to take more baths.

[ Has he spent a disproportionate amount of time trying to convince Hange that baths are nice and fun? Yes. Is he still going to use it as a threat? Also yes. ]

[titanscience]

Ehh?? No way! I'm using my birthday immunity, you can't dunk me today.

[Is birthday immunity even a thing? It is now, by declaration of the commander!]

[After letting out an exasperated huff, it quickly morphs into a soft laugh. Levi, you're actually a funny guy.]

So you'll come with me, right?

To the garden shop, I mean.

[wingbound]

That's not a thing.

[ He doesn't sound certain. Maybe it is a thing. It's not like he knows shit about birthdays. Besides, he supposes the Commander doesn't stink yet so they can decree a non-bathing holiday on such an occasion. ]

[ He'd probably have some opinions about being called funny -- or maybe he thinks he is funny, just like he thinks he's talkative -- but luckily Hange keeps it themself. ]

[ He gives them a flat look. It's not even a question, is it? ]

Of course I'll come with you.

[titanscience]

It's a thing. Annika said it on her birthday, remember!

[Yes we are taking social rules from our period era soap operas now.]

Yay! I'm glad! [Seriously! Just look at that beaming smile!]

This is already the best birthday I've had in years, so thanks Levi!

wanna wrap it up or do garden adventures? :')

[wingbound]

[ He frowns, trying to recall that particular episode. ]

...that was immunity to her chambermaid's negativity, not dunking. [ Pause. ] How many different immunities does it include?

[ Oops, he's just rolling with it?! ]

...tch.

[ He won't say things like "you're welcome", but he certainly will accompany them to the store and then they can dig around in pots of soil together. Nice and peaceful. ]

i WANNA do it but lets wrap else i wont do anything new this month hah ;; future botany arc tho

[titanscience]

It includes everything that the birthday-person wants it to include! That's why it's birthday immunity!

[there is no way this can backfire when it comes to be Levi's birthday, and Hange is trying to get him to do annoying things because of it!]

[The little 'tch' only makes Hange smile even more, such a typical response but they know he cares. Hehe.]

I'm going to make a list of what we need.

[Hange takes a moment to grab a notebook and pen from the living room before coming back, grabbing another square of the chocolate bread and working on a list of what they want from the garden shop.

Once that is over with, Hange talks some more about the carnivorous plants, eventually succeeding in getting Levi to join them in the living room to rewatch that part of the plant documentary they had on, so he can also see it in all its bug-squishing glory.]

secret continuous botany arc offscreen

[wingbound]

That's too damn convenient.

[ But yes, he's totally filing this information away to use on his birthday because he's sure Hange won't agree to just pretend to having forgotten it. On another hand, he's not even sure if he wants that anymore, either. This place is... different, and perhaps it's fine to give that day some significance here. ]

[ He'll let them handle the list, then, and make him suffer through the documentary (he honestly kind of gets into it after a while though, probably even cracking some inquiries about whether the plants also shit, since they're eating the normal way). ]

[ And then they'll probably head to the store to get the things on the list and spend the rest of the day digging in the dirt (and then cleaning everything because of course). ]
