I like the idea of spreading our influence more than my Corpse-Trap idea.

What? It's not an obsession!

What good are all these CHLOROPLAST UNITS sitting in your Energy Reserves if you don't use them? You decide to grow a CORPSETRAP BLOSSOM. For trapping corpses, I guess.

Your TRICK BLOSSOM explodes in a shower of springs and confetti. It would have been hilarious had anybody been around to see the trick. In its place sprouts a sure-to-be-useful CORPSETRAP BLOSSOM, an expenditure which drains three CHLOROPLAST UNITS from your Energy Reserves.
Crowstone Wrote:>Copter Blossom.
Next on your agenda is getting rid of that IMMOBILIZED Action Trait, so you can track down that TREACHEROUS DRIP.

[Image: 39.gif]

To this end, you use four more CHLOROPLAST UNITS to grow a COPTERBLOSSOM.
Ed_knott Wrote:> Consume dead animal
You examine the DEAD ANIMAL more closely.

It appears to be a dead MANNERPILLAR. This simple-minded creature must have dined on your POISONOUS TRICKBLOSSOM over the course of the night.

[Image: 41.png]

You shove the MANNERPILLAR into your CORPSETRAP BLOSSOM. From there, it is transferred to your DIGESTIVE ROOT-SYSTEM.

[Image: 43.png]

As the MANNERPILLAR digests, you replenish your Energy Reserves with five more CHLOROPLAST UNITS.

Now what?

So finish digesting it first, THEN leave using the COPTER BLOSSOM.

And grow something else, too? You need to use more energy, so you don't waste the energy you're going to get from digesting the MANNERPILLAR.

>THORNBERRY- Attempt to use this skill for more than just Thornberry creation. See if it applies to the creation of a Sinister Masterberry to assist you directly with plotting to destroy that Drip!

Yes. That shall help us!

I assumed that since we got five chloroplast units, we already digested it as much as we could; even so, there's no reason our root can't come with us.

>Grow ACID-SPITTER BLOSSOM; you clearly have the capability to produce acid, and are obviously a vascular plant, so rerouting acid to something you can spit it out of should be simple.

That's quite a sensible suggestion, really...

It'll be gross to have it just hang out by the frond, which is like this awesome bonus.

Grow an ACIDIC FIRE-BLAST BLOSSOM. It burns things, and whatever doesn't burn, gets dissolved. [img]images/smilies/fp_megahappy.gif[/img]

Other Possible Suggestions:

>Nigel: Gain SHRIVELED status to escape the keyhole (Surely you have begun to lose precious MANEUVER JUICES by being away from Wesley for so long)

>Bob: Whatever you do, DO NOT go into KEYHOLE MONSTER MADNESS.

>Steve John the Drop: Have a dream that explains why the military headquarters has been moved... and continue being awesome! (Even though you are knocked out)

You know exactly what kind of blossom you are going to grow next.
[Image: 44-1.gif]
But you're going to wait until your Photosynthesis Action Trait has fully replenished your Energy Reserves before you attempt it. They'll probably be replenished by the time you track NIGEL'S THORNBERRY down; you sense that it is somewhere in the direction of that distant ANIMAL HABITAT.

You proceed with as much stealth as you can muster.

Look at them. The fools. How delightfully barbaric.

You only hope the warring ANIMALS leave that TRAITOROUS DRIP unharmed, so that you might personally enact your VENGEANCE!

It will probably involve eating him or something.
