Who: Anyone!
Where: The fields
When: Day 12, afternoon
What:

*there's some short kid with a metal arm poking slowly through the fields, carefully studying a funky-looking potato. he's got a few other plants collected nearby, as well.*

Wonder what the easiest way to figure out which ones are safe is...

Eat it. If you don't die, you're good.

[truthandcakes]

That's only a good way to test one of 'em, though. I doubt any of the poisons'll act right away.

You eaten any of this stuff yet?

[approve_dammit]

So give it to someone you don't like.

...'M not good with plants. Apple does all that.

[telepathetically]

Or watch what the rabbits eat.

[approve_dammit]

...oh yeah, I guess that'd work.

[truthandcakes]

There's rabbits around? Maybe this place won't completely suck.

[hisguardianangel]

That sounds a little dangerous.

[approve_dammit]

Yeah, maybe. But he's not mine.

[appleofhiseye]

That's not how you should decide to eat something.

*cringes a little and shrugs*

[truthandcakes]

*after Wolf points you out*

Are you Apple?

[icarussurvived]

[shrugs] Just try them out~. What's the worst thing that could happen, anyway?

[truthandcakes]

Some of 'em might cause hallucinations, or horrible pain, things like that. Stuff I'd rather skip.

*doesn't consider "death" the worst anymore*

[icarussurvived]

Eeehh, sounds really troublesome. And here I wanted to try them all out.

[chaoticrights]

[ There is a TINIER KID in a hobo uniform looking... lost and curious and a little worried. ]

Mmmm... so they're typically dangerous?

[highesteem]

[another kid in the hobo outfit!!]

Well, if they're from the wild, doesn't it follow that not all of them are safe to eat?

[chaoticrights]

I suppose so... but what if you had to clean them and the food has just been prepared wrong?

[telepathetically]

Most of it is safe.

[chaoticrights]

That's a relief. It's the first time I've seen any food here at all.

[truthandcakes]

I dunno yet... where I'm from, it's not always safe.

[chaoticrights]

Is that so... but those look like potatoes. Once you clean them they will probably be fine, right?

[icarussurvived]

[points at Ed] That's what he says, so, probably.

[deathandtaxes]

[Cancer uniform! And feelings.

conspicuously stops and stares...]

[seekerofheart]

[there's another new hobo, just looking around in confusion. also looking as if he's just woken up from a deep slumber. or maybe as if he was exhausted.]

...where is... he?

[truthandcakes]

He? Who?
