it grew.

I should have looked up on these things and how to take care of them. Because this is kind of ridiculous. It's hitting the rafters.

[safe_as_life]

Seems like you're taking care of it just fine if it's growing. Though I still think you should have opted for a mint plant.

[leylined]

Mint is a filthy habit that I won't support, Gansey. We're actually planning an intervention.

[safe_as_life]

There is absolutely nothing wrong with my mint! There is no coming between us, either. Don't even think about it.

[leylined]

I have a bottle of weed-b-gone and I'm not afraid to take...extreme...measures.

[safe_as_life]

That's not even funny, Adam. You should feel my heart right now.

[leylined]

I may have to. Steve is getting jealous.

[safe_as_life]

...Steve?

[leylined]

Blue named it.

[safe_as_life]

I didn't know naming plants was a thing.

[leylined]

Apparently it is. I...guess it's named Steve.

[safe_as_life]

Well, if Jane says it's name is Steve, then it's Steve.

[leylined]

Also Steve didn't look so refined earlier. I found beetles in the apartment, so I went to town. Oh, fun fact: Rubber trees attract beetles.

[safe_as_life]

You should have asked Ronan to bring Chainsaw over. I'm sure she would have had a field day with the beetles.

Hindsight's always 20/20. It does seem kind of lonely, though, doesn't it?

[safe_as_life]

Steve, you mean?

[leylined]

Yeah, Steve. Maybe some other plants, too? But it's starting to get late in the season, and I don't think I have room for another tree.

[safe_as_life]

I've never really thought of plants as being lonely, but... I suppose it does look a little lonely over there. Do you think my mint plant is lonely? Maybe they can hang out together.

[leylined]

You have a ton of those mint plants stashed around Monmouth. If you weren't allergic to bees, you could probably breed them.

[safe_as_life]

I'd rather talk about Steve. You could fit another plant in here if you wanted to.

Or, you could get a bigger place. [Shrugs]

[leylined]

Not while Kavinsky's there.

[safe_as_life]

And if he wasn't?

[leylined]

I don't know. Maybe.

[safe_as_life]

He'll go home eventually. He's only staying here until... his mother gets back, I suppose? Ronan only gave me pieces of the story. She got taken away.

[leylined]

Taken where? [Taken away could be anything. Hell, he could be in foster care, or his mother might not want to come back.]
