Stephen Bell has taken over much of the Cooper living room, and is buried in blueprints and choice pieces of salvage metal which are starting to take the shape of complicated switchboards and ridiculously powerful engines. Tremble in your robot boots, Jetstorm, because Vader II is rising Frankenstein's monster-like from the wreckage.

Gabriel Gray is outside again, reading again, under a tree again. Got to make the most of the weather now it's warming up for spring.

Intuition is necking in the tall grass continuing in her quest to explore the farm and its various residents.

Hibym a Jona is, shockingly, in the kitchen; today she is exploring the possibilities offered by that delicacy known as Welsh Rarebit In Huge Quantities.

Bayami is floating about in the stratosphere, waiting for the weather to change.

And a strange and unusual and really quite hungry-looking plant has found its way down to the kraken pond, where it sits in its pot and ponders the water. If it was (a) sentient and (b) on a strict diet of human bits (both of which suggestions are of course ridiculous), one might almost think that it's looking for a kindred spirit. Alas, it has not discovered ham.

The mun asks only that you mention who you're tagging. Have at!

The Cooper farm has a wood shed.

(This is not likely to be news to anyone who's had a chance to wander it.)

What is new (and strange! and interesting!) is the odd little plant now sitting in a pot on the windowsill. The pot is perfectly ordinary, and so the narration will not deign to describe it (beyond it being brown and plastic) when it could instead be devoting adjectives to the plant itself. It's small, and adorable, and a very slightly less vivid green than it was yesterday. It has a bulbous pod in place of a flower, currently safely shut. (The word "safely" seems to be appropriate here, taking into consideration what appear to be the needle-thin teeth fringing the pod.)

The plant is bored and thirsty.

(If you offer to get it some water, it will pop a cap in yo' ass.)

Da-doo!

Perhaps your pups are in the Cooper homestead.

Shoop da-doo!

Or maybe sleeping (if they're lucky, in a bed).

Zedd da-doo!

Or even walking in a world that's mostly dead.

Apoc-a-loo!

When suddenly, and without warning, there is this:

To-tal e-clipse of the sun!

Or a bang and a flash. Whichever seems more likely. It's also a possibility that they just stumble across it somewhere. But what is 'it', you ask? Why, a plant, of course. Or, more specifically, a cutting of a plant, lovingly replanted in a neat little plastic pot. A very small, very unusual shoot.

What a strange and interesting little thing. Don't you just want to go closer and investigate?
