Welcome to Gaia! ::

Allium looked at the plants in the garden, he loved them all. Life plants were important to him, he quietly pulled the weeds from the garden. He thought about his kids he loved them all, Aloe and Evergreen were like his best friends. Allium thought about what he wanted, he just wasn't sure, besides wanting to garden which meant a lot to him. Allium loved strange plants like the flowering onion that he was named after and the nightshade plant. He thought about other strange plants and their values. It was hard to say, what value could be found in a plant if you didn't know it well.

Allium gave the hybrid a calm look and smiled softly looking up at the bright green coloring. "Different plants I'm caring for, roses, nightshade, lilies, angel's trumpet." He said gesturing to the various plants in the garden, as he continued to pull out the weeds threating to choke the life out of the flowers he cared for. Allium didn't hate poisonous flowers, he felt that they were just as special and pretty as harmless flowers. After all, there were everyday beautiful flowers, that were thought as lovely while other plants were feared. "I'm Allium and you are??" He asked curious as to who this figure before him was.

Allium smiled and shook Hemlock's hand, he watched the movement of his bag on his shoulder and reached out to take Hemlock's hand not thinking about the soil and plant matter on his hands. "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't think about my work getting you dirty too." Then he turned his attention to Hemlock's name and laughed "That's funny, my name is a plant too, it's a flowering onion." Allium also found it funny, neither of their plants could normally be found in a garden. Allium chuckled and said. "Are you hitting on me Hemlock??" Allium asked curiously, it was different from how he had gotten together with Evergreen and Aloe, making friends with them in their gardening classes.

Allium smiled "I recognize your name as well." Allium said with a chuckle not, really thinking, that there was anything bad about Hemlock, he had just met him after all. So far he seemed like a good guy. Allium smiled and said. "That's nice, what sort of customers do you have??" Allium asked curiously. Allium laughed and said. "Yes you, do you see someone else around here??" Allium laughed again and then stood and dusted the dirt off his hands onto his overalls. "So you enjoy giving others upside down compliments??" Allium asked rather curious about Hemlock and his behavior. Allium smiled and then said. "I'm glad we are clear on that." Allium wasn't much too flowery compliments, he wasn't big on big speeches either. Allium was a pretty simple guy, he normally expressed himself as best he could the way he was.

Allium smiled and said "That's nice." he said warmly, Allium shrugged and said "Not my thing." he wasn't judging, but he wouldn't try any recreational concoctions himself. Allium shook his head and said "Nah, you didn't offend me. I'm just not big on a lot of conversation." Allium said blushing a little, he didn't want to look like a fool in front of Hemlock, he seemed like a pretty cool guy. Allium nodded and said. "Yup, gardening is my passion, I doubt I'll be a fancy anything like some of my friends, even when I graduate I'll likely still be a simple gardener." Allium looked at Hemlock and said. "What about you are you studying at the university??"

Allium shrugged, might as well have someone strong around, Allium had never been very forward. He smiled at the compliment and said. "Thanks, tending to a garden makes me happy, caring for all the flowers." He said softly. Allium nodded and said. "That would be fine." Allium said with a nod. "I can help you find whatever plants your looking for." Allium smiled and said. "Thank you." He said listening to Hemlock about what he was good at and trying to figure out what he really wanted to do with his life. "I can show you another garden I work at some other time." Allium said softly. He wasn't ready yet to tell Hemlock where he lived.
