Damnit. Damnit, Where We Were should have been one of those final four. He knew exactly what he would have said, too - come on! Wasn't it obvious?
He'd made an effort to answer the questions eloquently, and even respectfully. The plant was artful and quite unique - there'd been a few like it nearby, but he'd never spotted it before. And he was a flower connoisseur - he had to know what he was talking about. Also, he'd found it where his parents had met (never mind that his mother had never seen his father again afterwards). That had to count for something.
What? This was supposed to be about the plants! Bob wasn't a plant, she just fetched them. "I don't... I don't personally expect to win. I just heard you were asking for something special, and in all my travels, this is probably one of the most unique plants I've ever come across. I've never found a plant that smelled of rot before. I've asked a few, and it seems to be a fairly unique thing. Others have seen similar, but none quite like this." Bug Traps, some called them, though they were different than her specimin. Her's didn't clap two parts together in order to trap bugs... it seemed to do it with it's own special sort of perfume...

"Because life's a race, right? I'm the fastest runner, the strongest swimmer, I will go the extra mile, harder and bigger and tougher because the mile's there. And this is the best plant."
She looked over at Half Waking again.
Well, she was most of the time, anyway.
Except with him.
And maybe having someone to race with made all the racing worthwhile in the first place.

No one!
"Uh huh. Except, there's still many of you here -- and so, it's not just about you winning, but them LOSING. Why do you think the kin around you deserve to LOSE?"
In response, if you're playing the prompts out, please write up at least 2-3 sentences explaining why your kin thinks the others should lose.
Roll 1d20, stating as you post if you think your roll will be higher or lower than mine.

"I don't." The poor doe was never any good at picking favourites or winners, espesically not to their faces. She was typically of the mindset that there was good in most people, in everything. "I mean, her plant," and she nodded at the doe with the cattails, "is food. And that's pretty special. It enables us to live. I don't.... I couldn't choose, sir."

It was clear that the question struck a chord with Where We Were, and as he looked around, he realized that some of the other contestants were feeling similarly.
See, anyone could say he was pretty thoughtless. But he never meant to hurt anyone, and he never meant for anyone else to lose. If he won, he meant. And sometimes...sometimes he didn't get the doe. Sometimes, he wouldn't win the contest.
That didn't mean that he deserved to lose. And that didn't mean that...anyone else here, really, did, either.
He swallowed, and, for a moment, considered himself lucky. At least he could avoid answering that question for himself another day.

"There's got to be losers. THAT'S LIFE. Step it up next time, champ. If all our plants fought, my plant would beat the other plants up. I'm just saying. Food chain."
I was going to drop to 1d10, but I'm not sure it'd help. So I'm sticking with 1d20. HOWEVER, this is the last prompt. After the next roll, I'm just going to roll to see out of who's left who wins, in order!
