(POV Crowley's Houseplants.) There were Rules: First - names are chosen by Him and if He doesn't choose them, they - the houseplants - simply do it themselves. Every time a new plant appears, she gets a name. No reusing, no changes. Every time a plant disappears- well. That's not the point now. Second - Help is essential between co-residing houseplants. Bigger plants shelter smaller ones, small ones make pacts with the weed to help the surrounding plants. The Silent Ones aren't part of this agreement (except for special circumstances). Third - Don't. Have. Spots. ________________ This experiment I thereby dedicate to Hilda, my dear ficus plant who's suffered much under my reign of (incompetent) terror and who is STILL STAYING ALIVE (to suffer through more of it).
