A cat would probably love it here, it's an ideal sunbathing spot. [no this isn't related to anything...] I admit I don't come here too often, but maybe I really should, in the future!

[souredsweet]

[too bad the only cat in their manor kind of died a while back geez

but Kaoru seems to agree with the sentiment at least, nodding with some enthusiasm.] I would suggest it. The plants are enjoyable and the temperature is always pleasant.

[aozaki]

[oh

oh yeaaaah

man who even still remembers that one]

I don't do well with idle hands, I admit, but I could try to work on a few things here. It's closest to my wing, too. Do you do anything here? Bring a book, maybe?

[souredsweet]

[yes it was like a million years ago

or a month same diff]

The lighting provided would be enough to see with ease, I would imagine. Ah, but, normally I just sit and enjoy the company of others or the flowers.

[aozaki]

Enjoy the company of flowers? [She chuckles.] Do you talk to them?

[souredsweet]

I have not thought to do so... Is that a common practice? [IT SOUNDS BIZARRE.] I simply enjoy the way they look. I have not seem many of the flowers in here before.

OOPS... wow that's the first time this ever happened

[aozaki]

It's actually good for them. The plants breathe the air we exhale, so talking to plants isn't unheard of for those who enjoy gardening. I don't know if it's common, I'm not acquainted with many who has hobby in gardening, but the technical fact is relatively well-known. In my time period, at any rate.

truly ciel was here all along

[souredsweet]

Ah... I was not aware. [huh. you learn something new every day!]

I suppose that I will try it later, if that is truly the case... Though it seems a silly thing to do, if I am honest.

oh my god IT'S TRUE...

[aozaki]

Haha, somewhat. Do you care for the scientific explanation?

[souredsweet]

[SURE WHY NOT they've got time to burn.]

If you would enlighten me, certainly.

[aozaki]

We breathe an element in the air called oxygen, it's what the human body absolutely needs in order to live. After we process it, what we exhale is called carbon dioxide, think of it like exhaust after fuel has been burnt. Burning coal produces large amounts of it too, the body tosses it out because it's useless to it after and unhealthy to let it pile up.

Green plants, on the other hand, are capable of a process called photosynthesis. During the day, it has the property to take in carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight, turning the output into oxygen. In other words, it's capable of changing exhaust back into fuel. That's why they're so vital to life, and given that we breathe out when we talk, the symbiotic relationship is beneficial to plant and person alike.

[so how's that for someone centuries behind modern science times...]

[souredsweet]

[MAGIC, PRETTY MUCH. Kaoru looks legitimately fascinated by this explanation...]

My, what a wonderful thing! I wish that I had known it sooner... But it is better to start late.

[aozaki]

No problem, I'll be glad to know you've learned something useful here! There's a few books about gardening too, if I recall correctly. It's no flower arranging, but do you see yourself picking that up as a hobby here, by any chance?

[souredsweet]

I had not thought of it, to be honest, but now that it is mentioned as a possibility... I believe that I might enjoy it. I have never had the chance to do any work outdoors before.
