Mini plot~ Of the plantlife variety

[maggotbone]

Yes, so, since Callie was ported back in last week, she has been under the impression that Usopp's leftover Maneating plants that she inherited have wilted away and died.

While two did, the other four managed to fall off the balcony and crawl into other "pots of soil" (ie dumpster, alley, the park, etc). These plants have slowly but surely been re-nourishing themselves with small animals, however now they have built their strength to start eating people- and perhaps germinate.

MEANING: The week of April 23rd-30th there will be a small Man-Eating Plants terrorizing the city plot. Anyone can participate, fighting off/ interacting with hungry plants and saplings.

Any questions/comments/etc. please ask away here :) otherwise, enjoy!

Thanks! 8D something simple to tie up the month~

LOL and it is just in time for Earth Day!

[maggotbone]

Callie's gonna be torn between claiming it as her doing and letting people sit and wonder what the fuck happened XD

[northerner]

[maggotbone]

[northerner]

[invoking]

Oh my god. *___*

Can people possibly set fire to one or two they're fighting...

This is the best. B)

[whatsupcroc]

... that's so adorable what even

[maggotbone]

8D They're just so hungry!

[mantrap]

Girl am I gonna haffta sue ya fer copyright infringement?

[maggotbone]

It's all out of homage to you, Twoey honey.

[mantrap]

Awwww you shouldn't have.

If Callie's looking for an excuse she can blame it all on an old frond.

...ahem friend.

BUT YEAH FOR OBVIOUS REASONS THIS PLOT PLEASES ME

[liarboo]

lol i love how his plant is getting around
he'd be proud
and then terrified

[liarboo]

I should also note, in case you didn't know, while it's never explained why this happens, but when Usopp shoots the seeds of these plants they grow instantly. You don't have to add it to your plot if you don't want (can make the excuse they're too young even though..the plants come out giant sized from the seeds), but if you wanted more havoc to be wrought...

[liarboo]

fff just realized this: "(can make the excuse they're too young even though..the plants come out giant sized from the seeds)" sounded like I was being nitpicky, but I was actually making a snide comment about how much this doesn't make sense and how much I curse the comic author for not explaining things, so fuck him and his weird natural laws.

oh god sorry to keep commenting, i just didn't want to come off as a dick and this account isn't paid and it's so late XD

[maggotbone]

haha, no prob, didn't take it as nitpickiness at all! You're fine, bb!

Definitely adds a little something to the plot :) I'll see if I can add the insta-grow somewhere before official plot day.

[rhombus]

OKAY GOOD haha. This is a cool plot, you're cool for doing it.

[hackeralastair]

This is all for you bb. I managed to make the chickens go somewhere, now the plants. ;)

[rhombus]

LOL THANKS SANJI

[unetrustworthy]

I have to ask.

Do they talk?

[maggotbone]

Had to think about this a bit~ Since they aren't fully developed like Audrey II was, these plants will probably be unable to talk. They can hum and make noise, but they don't know words or full sentences.

[hackeralastair]

AHAHAHAHAHA OMG YOU ARE AMAZING BRAK

that little side-note in the action with Sanji turns into PLOT. I love it! Sanji will be appropriately horrified and annoyed.

[maggotbone]

<3 It just seemed like the right thing to do~

And Callie might try to convince Sanji to save a couple from destruction for little 'ol her ;D

[a_relative_hero]

Oh man, this is awesome.

I will definitely have Joel get attacked by one.

[bullseye]

OH SHIT

i think i will have to get in on this with someone

[maggotbone]

DO IT

[sivalesvendetta]

So just to be absolutely sure, for posting purposes: are these theoretically growing anywhere they'd be able to grow, or is it only in very specific areas?

[maggotbone]

Anywhere they'd be able to grow :D Hotspots may include alleyways and the park.

[parroted]

Eating small animals and things, you say?

[maggotbone]

At first, yes 8D for the event's sake, it'll move on to bigger game.
