SCIENCE! Club, Monday After Classes
Today when the Science! Club members walked into the Danger Shop, they'd see the place was set up to resemble a biology lab... in the middle of a greenhouse. Every which way they looked, there were plants of all persuasions, from a towering sycamore to the lowly potato.
... Sorry, GLaDOS.
"Hey, guys," Evan greeted, looking about as chipper as always. "Today we're going to do things with plants. Um... pretty much anything you can think to do with them, actually. Since they're, you know, plants and all."
That was helpful, Evan, thank you.
"I am not an expert on biology," Liara supplied needlessly. "But I believe there are several experiments we could focus on. For example, we could use the microscopes to examine the structure of Earth plants." She glanced towards... Evan, yes. Not GLaDOS. Evan. "I also have reason to believe we could turn certain vegetables into batteries..."
"Which we can, um... you know, do." Evan? Was looking at Liara. And also not at GLaDOS. "Because we brought the stuff." A beat. "Or you could poke toothpicks into an avocado pit to try to grow a tree? You know. If you don't want to make a... vegetable battery."
Nondescript vegetable, right there. Yessir.
"Yes," Liara said, looking terribly earnest. "Also, I believe that if you put certain types of Earth flowers in liquid infused with color, the blossom assumes that color. Sometimes even several, if you slice the..." She glanced down at the sheet of paper in her hand. "Stem?"
Seriously! Not a biology expert!
"Stem," Evan agreed, smiling an earnest smile to match. "Or, if you don't want to do any of that, you can just feed bugs to the carnivorous plants for the rest of the meeting. And take one home with you if you want. No, you can't make a potato battery out of those, though."
... Wait! No! He hadn't meant to actually say that!
"Vegetable battery," Liara saidvery quickly sagely.
Battery of nondescript vegetable.

Re: Talk to the Leaders!
Raul was a good name for a plant that ate bugs, right?
"What's yours called?"
Re: Talk to the Leaders!
Probably.

This was because Angel was pretty convinced that he really was an angel, and tended to look at the world as a beautiful place, overall.
