[He teased-- he knew better than to expect a minimum of explosions from Varian, but he also hoped that there wouldn't be a need for explosions with gardening.]
At least-- could we try to wait until something is growing before there's explosions? I know some plants that will make a nice salve for burns, so we kinda need that on hand before things get too crazy. My supply of dried bundles can only do so much, you know.
[And, while they could ask Fern-- they needed to get standing by their own strength as well. That would be more important, and more sustainable, in the long term.]
...Since we're starting over, maybe I should look into actual books on this stuff instead of trying to remember everything my Aunt showed me. She's smart, but she doesn't know everything. The plants are probably different here, so that's another thing we're gonna have to research and learn to work with.
[Asking Varian not to explode something is like asking him not to breathe, gosh wow!!]
Hmm they do, I can make salves like that. But you have a good point, we don't know what the flora here can do. If I can get some samples, and assuming by some miracle my lab actually showed up here with me, I could run some tests- figure out what the new flora can do. Then we can work out what's best to try to focus on growing.
...And then figure out the best way to grow them, that's...that's also a thing.
The farm I worked outside Mistral was warmer than Deerington. And this place, I guess.
We'll figure it out. Between Fern and his understanding of plants, my understanding of how to grow plants, your alchemy skills, Dipper's ability to investigate anything, and everything else that the others who came here with us know... We'll get it.
[It wasn't a vow, but a declaration of fact. After watching everyone fall apart as the Dream crumbled-- Oscar himself included-- he knew that they all needed a chance to get in touch with the Earth if they wanted it. Maybe it would help them stay grounded when October came, or through a dark Winter.
He believed in the people, and the possibilities that they all brought to Trench.
Hmm, Old Corona had pretty rough winters, but it still got a lot more sun than this place seems to be getting.
[But Oscar is right, between all of them, they should be able to muddle through this and work out how to make this city something more liveable. If nothing else, they were all too bloody-minded to let it go without a damn good fight. ]
We will. I think we've got a pretty good chance of working this out. We've got this.
