What the hell's with all the flowers?

[That's really all Handsome Jack is concerned with, at the moment.]

Seriously.

What the hell?


[Action]

[Freaking flowers.]

[They're everywhere. The sidewalks look like the aftermath of some kind of soft core snowstorm already and more just keep falling from...he doesn't even know. A pocket dimension, who the hell knows? He's been standing outside his usual cafe for hardly a handful of minutes, and already there are pastel petals in his hair and flowers clinging to his blazer and getting caught on his watches and in the hinges of his mask.]

[Not to mention floating in his overly-sweet coffee.]

[It's too much to hope for that the rain of flora is at least recreationally viable. The only kind of highs plants around here give are not fun ones. This planet sucks. If it weren't so clearly ripe for the picking, with nobody else even thinking about grabbing it, he doubts he could find anything redeeming about it at the moment. It's not even terrible, it's just stupid and annoying. Everything is stupid and annoying.]

[He sighs audibly, covering his face with his hand and adopting a dramatically irritated pose.]

[His nose is starting to itch. And he's got to bike back through this ridiculous weather. With his stupid fat puppy. That's rolling in the flowers because of course the scary bone dog named Doom Boner loves flowers.]

[What did he ever do to deserve this?]

Considering all the cities are named after flora, you won't escaping them any time soon.

Wait, really? Ha, I thought they were named after colors.

[Enjoy a view of Doom Boner wiggling in the flowers.]

Nope, the people here aren't that creatively bankrupt. [He does give puppy a little wave before going to the window and looking outside.]

Hmmm question, no one is acting weird out there are they? I was thinking about going outside and grabbing a few flowers. I just need to make sure this just strange weather and not nothing else.

[thedifferencebetween]

Gonna need a few more parameters there, kiddo. Everybody here acts weird as far as I'm concerned.

The flowers don't do anything, though. I tried eating a couple, nothing happened.

Disappointment.

[killer_sweets]

Good point, I mean a more drastic change in overall behavior like everyone being lovely dovey or violent.

If they aren't doing anything then that is perfect. I need a couple hundred flowers and there is no better price to get them than free.

[video]

[thedifferencebetween]

Don't think so.

Whaddya need all the flowers for, if they don't get you high?

[video]

[killer_sweets]

That's perfect, then I can do this hassle free.

Oh I put them in sweets, so they are gonna help me make money.

[thedifferencebetween]

What, like fancy artisan crap?

[video]

[killer_sweets]

Nothing too fancy, hell one of the items I plan to make are Popsicles with flower petals in them.

[video]

[thedifferencebetween]

Why aren't you doing anything fancy? You can charge more.

[video]

[killer_sweets]

We have specialty orders, which count as the fancy shit. Those aren't cheap.

[video]

[thedifferencebetween]

Oh yeah? Good to know.

What kind of stuff can you make?

I like fancy shit.

[video]

[killer_sweets]

Are specialty orders can range from melted surprise chocolate balls to lavender cotton candy with sugar coated white rose petals.

[They even made a chocolate laptop, that was an interesting order.]
