[Ever since he got the directions to the greenhouse from Jade, Kanda's set himself up his own little corner of various plants. He's currently kneeling down, gloves to the side and sleeves rolled up as he works at settling another plant into a pot. Separated to the side are a couple dying plants, with healthier counterparts nearby to replace them.

[Much like their last conversation, Pharos appears without a sound from nowhere; though his attention doesn't immediately seem to be on Kanda himself, instead preoccupied with looking at the dying plants, which he reaches out to gingerly brush his fingers over.]

...Are they dying?

[regeneratory]

[Giving people warnings is generally politer.

Jolts and turns to face him, frowning when he notices who it is. Creepy child.] Yes.

[bedninja]

[Pharos is very polite, he'll have you know. When it occurs to him to be polite.

But he doesn't notice Kanda's frown in the least, intent on watching the flowers.] So this is what it looks like... I did not look closely enough in the fall.

...really, it is no wonder death is a feared idea if it looks like this.

[regeneratory]

They're plants, it's not that big of a deal if they die. [Okay he gets where Pharos was going with that, but he doesn't feel like entertaining the topic.]

[bedninja]

Do you really not think so? [Finally looking over at Kanda.] ...But you are the one replacing them, are you not? Sure it must mean something to you that they are dying.

[regeneratory]

It just means there's no point taking care of them when they're not going to survive.

[bedninja]

Well if you speak to them in such a way, perhaps they would not wish to.

[regeneratory]

... They're just plants. They can't care either way.

[bedninja]

...can they not?

[He looks genuinely curious about that.] I recall hearing once that plants grew if you spoken to them.. so I would imagine if you spoke things that were unpleasant, it might be a detriment to their growth.
