[ there's darkness for a moment before the camera clicks on to yukari, seated at what looks to be a kitchen table and holding a small potted succulent in her hand. the large deer antlers and rabbit ears atop her head are proof enough that it's iris, one of them twitching toward a noise off screen while she settles back in her chair.

satisfied that it's recording, she gives a little wave to the camera with her free hand. ]

Hey, everyone. So this "taking care of plants" thing is still pretty new to me, but he looks kind of sick, right? [ she holds the plant closer to the camera for confirmation, and she's right, it seems under the weather for a succulent. a few of the leaves at the bottom are yellow and look swollen, and when she brushes a finger against one of them, it pops off with no resistance.]

I'm not really sure what's wrong with him. Everything was fine a few weeks ago. [ her mouth turns down into a worried frown, brows knitting together as she turns her gaze from the plant back to the camera. ] If anybody has advice, I'm open to it. Tips would be great, too. Or...I dunno, anything.

[ yukari wanders off screen for a moment then returns with pen and paper in hand, scribbling down the advice as fast as she can. ]

Okay...less water, rotate him, fertilize him until summer. Got it! But what happens if you overfeed your plant?

It'll grow too quickly and be unable to support itself. Essentially it'll become brittle.

I'm sure it was mentioned, but you only want to water when the soil is no longer damp. And only water the soil, try not to pour it over the succulent.
