[ squatting in the castle garden, staring at the bioluminescent flora ]

Huh. You think these things'll keep glowing if you pull them out, or do they just. Poof. [ snaps his fingers ] Turn right off, like a light switch?

[malewife]

[ WHAT... KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT? Niah, his wolf daemon, seems to squint. But now he's thinking about this seriously. ]

... They should glow for some time before it eventually fades because it can no longer draw nutrition.

[ At least he thinks so? ]

The easiest way to know is to check yourself.

[ HE JUST CUTS SOME DOWN WITH HIS SWORD. ]

[third_alternative]

I mean, it could've sprayed nasty glowing poison juice at us when you break it, but sure. [ he picks up one of the now-detached mushrooms and holds it up between them so they can both see if/as it fades. ]

You know a lot about glowing plants?

[malewife]

You would be fine as long as it doesn't stay on your skin too long.

[ He says this, but he's basically all clothed so he would probably live longer. Anyway, no poison spraying shrooms? ]

No, I don't.

[ he is bullshitting. ]

[third_alternative]

Talking real confident for someone who doesn't know anything, then, huh?

[malewife]

You're asking questions like you expect me to know answers. I formed them from experience, not botanical research.

[third_alternative]

And by experience, do you just mean "the past 5 minutes"?

[malewife]

I've been poisoned a lot in the past.

[ so not five minutes, but not experience you would want to have. ]

[third_alternative]

...by glowing plants specifically, ooooor...?

[malewife]

Animals, people, plants, and environments.

[ ALL SORTS OF THINGS. ]

[third_alternative]

Wow. You're not really good at the whole self-preservation thing, are you?

[malewife]

I'm alive, aren't I?

[third_alternative]

Not for lack of trying, it looks like.

[malewife]

Anyway, the fungi are at least edible.

[third_alternative]

...you know anything else around here that's edible?

[malewife]

Based on the fact that Power hasn't gotten sick, the deep sea fish and glowing crawling creatures are fine.

[third_alternative]

Yeah but Power also likes to drink blood. And eat raw meat and stuff. Not exactly the most average sample of a digestive system, ya know?

[malewife]

Yes, but those things are also edible.

[ WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER. ]

With the lack of resources here, we have to make do.

[third_alternative]

[ country boys make do........ ]

Well, I'm not about to make do with these first! You try 'em.
