Drink Count: 2 | He Put the Fear of Crowley Into Them

[eyesofaserpent]

A. [Action: Jonathon's Tools]

[Crowley can be seen in the gardening department holding a green plastic plant mister. He has an evil little glint in his eye and a smile on his lips. He is looking forward to menacing some house plants.]

B. [Action: Bilko Boulevard, heading to house number 915]

[Now he's walking down the street whistling and with a cheerful bounce in his step. Those house plants don't know what they'll be in for.]

C. [Action: 915 Bilko Boulevard]

[Crowley starts to talk to the house plants as he spritzes them with the plant mister. He puts the fear of God into them. Or more accurately, the fear of Crowley.]

[April just... blinks at him as he talks to the plants, looking slightly confused.] ... Um, what're you doing?

[eyesofaserpent]

Oh, back in the seventies I heard on the radio the benefit of talking to your plants to help them grow. [spritz, spritz]

[evers-hacker.livejournal.com]

Ah, really? That's pretty amazing... [Watches the spritzing.] Though, um, why're you using that bottle thing instead of a watering can?

These kinds of plants do better with a good misting. It helps keep the air around them moist and their leaves clean and green.

Eh, really? None of the gardening books I've read here mentioned that... [She makes a mental not to give it a try later.] Then again, most of the books here are kinda crap.

Plants with leaves like these... [He touched one of the leaves to show the glossy greenness of it and the deep vein down the center of the leaf.] Are generally tropical plants. They're used to collecting water from very moist air. It's a rather too dry for them here without using a mister.

((ooc: This is the plant in question. It's a Ficus elastica.))
