[The feed buzzes on to Ichimatsu looking boredly down with his hand resting on one fist, his other clearly setting the phone up to record. Despite how often he looks bored, this time he looks a little perturbed, as well, and he glances up at the phone after a while, shifting its view a moment later. It shows a large wooden chest, in the corner of a relatively nondescript room, and the inside of the chest is sectioned off into several segments, most of which are... filled with plants, be they dried or in seed form. He slowly moves the view across the entire chest, and then sets it back on a shelf, or a windowsill, where it can focus on him as he sets his cheek back against his fist.]

...so I've had this chest of plants for almost a fucking year now. I completely forgot about them, and all the labels are... burnt, it looks like. Somehow the plants are okay? They're weird space plants, they all do weird shit. I remember two of them, but not their names.

[A long silence, and he shifts to uncurl his hand and set his chin in his palm, instead.]

...guess I'm gonna be selling some weird space plant extracts once I figure out what they all do again. Anybody interested? Or, for that matter, anybody know anything about plants? Reaper, Karamatsu, you two remember these things?

[ooc; Ssssso these are plants Ichimatsu's had since he was in Eluvio. There was an event in that game where the ship visited a planet with seven districts based off the seven sins, and characters were allowed to harvest and keep flora from the districts. The moderation of that game has since locked the post with the actual names/effects of those plants, so I'll be working off memory for effects and making up new names, but the plants bear no actual resemblance to any other existing flora. Feel free to have any botany-smart people tell him as much! ...also hi I changed usernames.]

Are any of them catnip?

phone tags get

[nyahilistic]

It’s kind of scary how much that was my exact question when I was first gathering them. Sadly no, no catnip. One of them is kinda minty though.

[unos]

[ Katsura frowns. That incredibly disappointing. ]

I see... Well, if you had the sense to wonder if one was catnip, I'm sure you've already tested the mint one on a cat, yes?

[nyahilistic]

[Isn't it, though? Ichimatsu looks mildly affronted at the question, though, quirking his mouth and letting his stumpy little eyebrows knit together.]

...ah, no, not yet. I'd rather know what they all do on a person before I expose my cat to them, I don't want to give him anything he shouldn't have, even if it seems like it's part of the mint family...

[unos]

[ Katsura looks shocked. ]

You haven't even tried them on yourself yet? You've had them for a year, haven't you?

[ How could you resist the possibility of letting your cat get high as fuck, Ichimatsu? ]

[nyahilistic]

No, I-- I forgot I even had them, honestly. I remember what they did where they came from, but I wanna make sure a different environment doesn't... change anything about them, especially before I give them to Nyanko.

[This cat is his son, okay. And now he has three kittens, too.]

[unos]

I see...

Quietly: ] Do you need help?

[nyahilistic]

[Blinks.]

...I wouldn't turn down help, nah. I mean I've got about twelve or so plants, here.

[unos]

[ Still quiet. ]

And if one of the plants works like cat nip, can I have some?

[nyahilistic]

[He frowns, startled by the question, but then nods.]

...a cat fan, are you? Sure, I could give you some for helping me learn what they do. I have some notes from where they came from, too.

[unos]

Cats are magnificent.

[ So yeah, he's a fan. ]

Wonderful. I'll come by as soon as the clippings are ready.

[ ... ]

Ah. And I'm Katsura.

[nyahilistic]

[Magnificent is a good word. He nods, grinning crookedly, and waves a hand as he ducks back into his chest of plants.]

Ichimatsu. Don't be weirded out, I've got two identical brothers I live with. I'll give you the address and let you know when they're ready.
