[video is of a small white rabbit and the background is that of a café. she gives friendly wave with her free hand.]

Yoohoo, it's Haru. Your local white rabbit who isn't from here and who is, yes, an actual rabbit! I know that confuses a lot of you human and other different animal types who've never met a talking rabbit before.

Kinda wanted to get that out of the way...

Anyway, I want a job to keep me busy while I'm stuck here and feeling useless while everyone else is going through changes and eating octopuses which is a bit creepy. Anyone here run a flower shop or a local garden? I ran the gardening club at my school.

I know this is pretty boring and you guys get a lot of these kinds of questions, but I'm also pretty bored so we're even.

Is your world multi-species talking animals or just rabbits?

[Sure he's familiar with most of her friends in Lunatia but it's the question he needs to ask to connect the dots toward them being from similar or the same world.]

You could try asking around the Greatmoon Groves, they do some markets and farming.

But if you're that hard up for something to do you could probably start your own set up easily enough.

[hopticulture]

[she's squinting at that username btw because it's an unfamiliar language hah hah.

anyway.]

Multi-species. We're a world of all sorts of herbivores and carnivores, land and sea. I know the animals a lot of people here are familiar with don't walk and talk like us, though. Kind of like what I've seen here.

And thanks! I'll check out the Groves. I'm not sure I want to set up shop just yet until I get to know the plants here a bit better. It was different back home because the gardening club kind of fell into my lap and I got stuck with its upkeep. Not that it was a problem, there's a reason why I kept with it while everyone else dropped out.

Well - there's definitely florists or flower shops around on Level 1 at Lunatia Square. I pass by them pretty frequently. It depends on if you wanted to deal with people, more or less.

Then it was already mentioned - Greatmoon Groves on Level 2 is where there's farming and gardening.

[hopticulture]

I don't mind dealing with people. I had to sell flowers and plants during all kind of school events and was pretty good at it!

[she had to be!! she was the only one handling everything...]

Do you know if the Groves are more hobby, or is that paid work? I can use some spare money since I don't think I'll be moonlacing much.

[because her boyfriend is. weird.]

What kind of rabbit?

[hopticulture]

[she sees that username but isn't!!! going to get her hopes up.]

I'm just a white dwarf rabbit, nothing really special.

[.....eh, why not.]

What kind are you?

[downswing]

You require salad leaves?

oh BOY!!!

[hopticulture]

Uh, I mean I wouldn't mind having lettuce seeds to grow I do like a nice fresh salad and lettuce always sold well during cultural events...

I currently work at a cafe, but I do want to have my own business at some point. I want to learn more about flowers and growing them before doing so.
Perhaps you may be interested in doing the same, and we can work together to open a flower shop in the near future.

[ He'll take care of the monetary part, really. It's the gardening he's not very good at... ]

[hopticulture]

Well that's a very forward offer considering I don't know your name!

[SORRY SHE JUST. is very blunt about things...]

I was by myself in the gardening club for most of highschool and I do still study by myself mostly when it comes to botany, so I'm not sure if I'd be a good teacher. But it is a good idea! My own shop would mean I could sell whatever kind of plants I want to grow.

Hello Haru!

My name is also Haru! Though, I'm only a rabbit some of the time, and even then it's mostly just the ears? But it's lovely to meet you!

It's not a shop, but I've got a little garden that I tend to here. I suppose it must be something in our names!

[hopticulture]

Someone told me they knew another Haru; it's good to finally run into you! And a sometimes-rabbit too...if you like, I could give you tips.

Where's your garden? It might just be a weird coincidence, or a destiny of names. Don't know, I've never been that superstitious that's more of a feline thing than a rabbit thing...even if our foots are supposedly lucky.

[zutsuki]

Wait, so you're normally a rabbit without the moon effects? I mean-- I think that's what you just said, I'm sorry for making you repeat yourself, but... Wow!

[Hi Haru, remember the dummy who got fooled by chainmail? He's being a dummy again.]

[hopticulture]

[HI DUMMY.]

Yeah I've always been this way. I know it's hard for a lot of other people to believe, which is why I wanted to get it out of the way.

[she's just going to end it there but then she pipes up, pointing at the screen.]

And in case you're wondering, no not everyone where I'm from is a rabbit. We're pretty common but that's because smaller herbivores in general have big families.

[Normally he likes to stick to texting, but...he's a little curious how she'd react to another nonhuman.]

I'm assuming octopuses would be considered regular citizens in your world?

[hopticulture]

[admittedly this person is unlike any animal she's seen before but all in all.

she seems unfazed, obviously trying to make out just what he is with a bit of a squint (a bug???), before giving up and thinking over his question]

Sea creatures have their own society which is pretty separate from us land dwellers. But it is important to learn Seaspeak!

I've never met an octopus but yeah. They're their own animal!

[person. individual. whatever....]

[graftage]

[That...sure is a bunny. Then again, he shouldn't judge, his partner is practically a squid in human clothing.]

I don't run a flower shop or garden myself, but if it doesn't pan out, I've been collecting some seeds and gardening supplies if you need them!

[hopticulture]

[SHE SURE IS A BUNNY!]

Oh I might take you up on that offer! How did you get seeds and gardening supplies if you don't garden?

Even if I don't get a job working at a flower shop or a garden it's still a hobby that'll keep me busy.

[topgun_textiles]

[Holy shit, it's a cute bunny! ...From a world that has bunnies and probably other animal people. Good to know. He would have mistaken her for a prismal.]

Someone else mentioned Greatmoon Groves and I gotta agree with 'em.

I got a plot there with some stuff growin' for food n' all, and usin' Chroma makes it all pretty easy for me. I'd probably kill all this stuff otherwise... I'm not good at gardening.

I mean, I wanna get better at it, but I dunno where to start.

[hopticulture]

You can use Chroma on plants? How?

Honestly when it comes to plants, I find soil quality is something a lot of people forget about, especially if where you're gardening has been in use for awhile. Plants are actually easier to understand than most people, from my experience, at least.

[unholy_rebirth]

[Talking rabbit isn't quite normal back home, but Thereth doesn't see why it couldn't be. She's kind of cute!]

Hello, Haru. I am Thereth. I don't know if there is a "gardening club" here, but I would love to have one.

[hopticulture]

Nice to meet you, Thereth.

[THIS IS A WEIRD LOOKING COW but this girl is definitely among the more normal of the people she's met so far. in fact, Haru seems to perk up a bit.]

A gardening club is kind of a school thing though, isn't it? I'm an adult now so it would feel a bit weird to start up a club.

[calm down haru you're a first year in college.]

[gwenhwyfar]

[ She can't help the warm smile. She's absolutely darling. ]

Aren't you lovely? I am no human, myself, but I know to some extent to look like an oddity among humans.

[ Gwenhwyfar, who very much looks like a ghost, herself. ]

Well met, Haru, my name is Gwenhwyfar. I apologize, I cannot think of a merchant that specializes in flowers or gardens at the top of my head. But it is an interest I share, as well. I grew up in the forests outside of my mother's lands and know a thing or two about gardening. Perhaps I can help?

video;

[hopticulture]

Lovely, huh...? Uh, thank you.

[she recognizes that sort of smile, and that sort of compliment. she's used to it by now and just takes it in stride, a polite smile and a shrug of her shoulders.]

You kind of look human to me, a washed out one that is, but I shouldn't judge on appearances alone. But if you're interested in plants and gardening, what is it that you do here? I mean, I'd appreciate getting a plot of land to start up a garden at the very least, honestly.

oh. hey, haru ...

can't really help you on the job thing 'cause i don't know any flower shops that are hiring

but i was kinda wondering if you could help me with something else

[hopticulture]

[OH LOOK IT'S ONE OF HER FAVE JOJOS.]

Sure I could try to be helpful. What's the matter?

[tigridias]

[ oh! miss rabbit! ]

Ah. Hello. I'm not sure if you remember me, but I'm Doppo. Kannonzaka Doppo. We met...?

Anyway. There's a garden in Miss Megumi's clinic that I've been helping to tend, if you want to come and check it out.
