Where the hell did you even find a palm tree?

This eccentric flower shop that used to be owned by a giant turtle.

[SO MATTER OF FACT.]

[nopride4parents]

Used to, huh? Did he return to the sewer, then?

[nopride4parents]

Practical shoes are the right of all sentient beings, though.

Not according to Cosmo.

[nopride4parents]
