It seems I have quelled the rose problem for now. I will cut back their watering schedule to ensure the dears don't get out of hand once again.

-Sasarai stands observing the garden now, sipping at his coffee-

Hmm... looks much better, actually.

[und_supercreeps]

*Ferdinand looks at him, suppressing a small chuckle at the coffee. That felt familiar.*

Are you not going to help?

[bigbluehat]

Oh, I'm no good at actual gardening.

[und_supercreeps]

Perhaps you would like to learn?

[bigbluehat]

Oh, no thank you! I'm quite alright. -siiiiip-

[und_supercreeps]

Allow me to rephrase...You are going to help.

[bigbluehat]

...Well if you insist.

[und_supercreeps]

Good. *hands him a pair of gardening gloves* Finish your coffee and we will get started.

[bigbluehat]

-LE SIGH- ...This is no good at all, but I suppose it can't be helped.

[und_supercreeps]

Don't be so dramatic. *hands him a pair of pruners*

[bigbluehat]

-Blink-

What are these?

[und_supercreeps]

Pruners. You remove the stems that are not growing with them.

[bigbluehat]

...Explain that another way, possibly?

[und_supercreeps]

*oh boy, it was going to be a long day. He gently tugs Sasarai over to the rose bushes and points to a particular piece of a bush that is growing thorns and no buds at all* See this? This would need to be pruned.

*he takes the pruners for a moment and demonstrates*

[bigbluehat]

I see, I see... -he nods, watching intently-

[und_supercreeps]

Now you try. *he hands the pruners backs to Sasarai and motions to another bush with a dead-looking stem growing from it*
