[Just as well, she doesn't turn around from her photosynthesis and she doesn't recognize the voice, since she's not particularly good at that sort of thing. Rather, she calls back to the voice dryly.]
Yeah, why don't you tell me that he's a trick pony too. Does he stand up on his hind legs if you give him enough peanuts?
[A cactus sprouts itself out of the mess that is her 'hair'. It starts budding. She pauses for a brief moment, before giving off an annoyed huff. Turning around, she scrutinized the other. A look of recognition, and she turns away.]
*After that rather pleasant dream, Atoli is in high spirits! Quite literally might I add. She's floating over the tiny village with clumsy movements - but she looks rather happy.
And when she sees a familiar girl near the fountain, she flies to her.* Rita! I - ...
*She floats near to the ground, but doesn't land exactly. And with her attire, she looks bit like a human-size fairy. And she gives the mushroom-eating horse.* I'm guessing that's your special power?
[He is walking by, seemingly completely unbothered by what Somarium has thrown at them now; and as well he should, all things considered. He didn't escape unchanged, but...in a manner of speaking, he did. Having just quite happily convinced Cheshire to drop a dead rat on a certain other rat's doorstep, he is on his way back to the estate when he spies Rita.
The sight is strange enough to wipe the smirk clear off of his face.
He blinks.
A pause. And then his amusement is back full-force.]
Quite the interesting power you have been granted, Rita dear. I imagine that it was poorly chosen, however! Plants are so very flammable!
[He's in far too good of a mood to be put off by her comments. Instead he simply smirks.]
So you say. I have a habit of not listening to people who appear more like a plant [And here he's reaching over and invading that personal space in order to pluck that pear hanging from her ear] than a human.
[And he inspects the pear with some amusement, looking entirely entertained.]
[The first thing you're likely to hear is the clatter of dozens of exoskeletoned feet tapping against the pavement, accompanied by the clacking of claws. The source, as one would naturally expect, is a gaggle of lobsters. Less expectedly, they appear to be following Yosuke like some sort of pied piper. The frustrated young man himself is, at present, too distracted by this to notice the dryadic mad scientist in the fountain as he passes by. Instead, he turns to face his newfound posse.]
Alright, you know what? Stop. [Which they promptly do.] Seriously, you guys are getting on my nerves here. [The lobsters look around at each other, dejectedly.] Just go bother someone else, alright? [Well, you heard the man. The cluster of crustaceans look at each other, then at the nearest someone else, before heading off in that direction. Guess who that someone is, by the way?]
[... the clacking of exoskeletoned feet is a little hard to ignore, even with a pear growing out of her ear. She turns around when the horse blocks off her sunlight again, shifting to avoid said exoskeletoned feet and the lobsters carried upon them.
... a venus flytrap snakes out of her sleeve and snaps angrily at the crustaceans. She looks up sharply, and when she recognizes the other, she is less than amused.]
Oh, look, a lobster dinner. Just what I've always wanted. Gee, how did you know, you flatterer you?

She raises an eyebrow. A mushroom pushes its way out of the grass that is her hair, and is promptly snatched up by the horse eagerly.]
Look, it's not as bad as it looks, okay?

I could live without it. At least you can do something useful.
Ugh, when is this month going to be over?

Yeah, and so are you if you don't know what's good for you. Which you don't, considering you are you and you seriously don't know what's good for you.

Then why the hell are you here, talking to a plant? Shouldn't you be home watching your lady preen her dress, or something?

[Well this is awfully amusing.]
What happened to you?
[No that's not a smirk what are you talking about?]

Use your head for a moment, won't you? More importantly, why didn't it happen to you?

Oh, this is too good. [He pulls out his dreamberry, knowing it must have a camera function somewhere.]
