[Someone's in the Cat dorm... sneaking, silently creeping....]

[Except not really, she just tripped on her own feet and crashed on the ground]

Hey! [SHAKING HER HAIR OUT ON HIM]

That's for you!

[featherduster]

[ Leaning out of range!! ... unsuccessfully ]

It would be rude of me not to share!

[acemedium]

I'm not the one who needs to be watered, here!

[featherduster]

But didn't we already establish that I'm the one who waters other people? I'm just doing my job.

[acemedium]

That's different!

You water everyone with love and peace.

[featherduster]

... I don't really see how that's different.

[acemedium]

For one, it doesn't get anybody wet.

[ONE WOULD HOPE]

[featherduster]

[ Well there was that one time — ]

I guess. But it seems to me that just means I gotta pick up my slack in other areas, too. Like actual watering.

[acemedium]

Silly Vash. [TRICKS ARE FOR KIDS???] Regular people don't need that kind of watering!

Plant people needs lots of watering, though.

[featherduster]

How do you know? I'm the only one you've met.

[acemedium]

I can tell! If Spatulas had some water, he'd probably stop being so dry and crusty all the time.

And I bet getting watered would help out all the ladies, too.

[featherduster]

[ SPATULAS.... ]

... I'll keep that in mind for when I get back.

[acemedium]

[#Helping]

In his case, you should probably hit him with the watering can, too. [JUST SAYING]

I think I get you now.

[featherduster]

.....? What is there to "get"?

[acemedium]

[Gestures to all of him!]

All this! And all your fussiness.

[featherduster]

[ stOP GESTURING TO ALL OF HIM IT'S VERY RUDE ]

... I don't get it.

[acemedium]

[Reaches up and pats his head]

You're always being a mother hen over everybody.

[featherduster]

[ Huffing out a long breath. Geez. ]

So what's your excuse?

[acemedium]

No, I'm saying I figured out why!

I'm a genius, you know.

[featherduster]

[ Don't think you can evade that question forever ]

Well, fill me in on the juicy details, then.

[acemedium]

[Her motherhen game isn't nearly as strong as yours, let's be real here]

It's because you're really an opposite-plant! So you're taking up your hand at gardening with everybody.

[It makes perfect sense. Not]

[featherduster]

[ Snorting with laughter all over again ]

[acemedium]

Am I wrong? You want everyone to grow up nice and strong, so you're watering them with love and peace and mother henning.

But Teaspoons had some bad experiences, so he just wants to stomp on all the peoplants.

[featherduster]

[ Teaspoons ]

You're not wrong at all. That's the crazy part.

[acemedium]

Of course I'm not. I'm a genius, I know what I'm talking about.

And because he wants you to hate on the peoplants... he keeps trying to push you into poison ivy people and stuff. Or thorn bushes! You know, those nasty kinds.
