If I'm going to be a lady, at least I'm a hot one. Who wants to buy me drinks?

I think if I post any more pictures of baby me to my instagram than I have already in the last twenty-four hours she's been alive, I'll thoroughly pass into 'vain' territory.

More importantly, I think that her existence legally obligates me to retire. It's time. I've had a good run.

And again, the Annual Fall Paradox begins -- a festive time of year where I, in my excitement over the changing season, inadvertently can't stop making flowers that are completely not suited for autumn, thus sticking myself into a floral-scented time loop.

My morning company of animals is so confused already, and the leaves haven't even changed yet.

I can't be blamed for this, she followed me home.

Vacation time! Or, well, we're calling it a research retreat, but let's be honest, two weeks in the most-remote, gorgeous, and unpopulated regions of Maui? Vacation!

You see, darlings, my fellow botanists and I are gravely concerned about the plight of the Haleakalā silversword. It's only found at very high elevations within the crater of the Haleakalā volcano, and I'm afraid that it's a very fragile, dear thing. It can only flower once, so its window for pollination is brief, and unfortunately excessive cattle grazing and an alien species of Argentine ant that feast on the silverswords' main source of insect pollinators are doing quite a number on the flower's overall population.

I'm terribly excited! Now then, as I will be gone for two weeks, I trust Ella to do a wonderful job in my absence. Don't do anything I wouldn't do, sweetheart!

I've left detailed instructions on how to care for everything in my stead. The dahlias should be quite happy to be left to their own devices for a little while, but make sure you chatter away to the pitcher plants! They're going to miss their mummy. And remember, do not use the cacti for bludgeoning weapons! I don't care how prickly they grow!

The combination to the experimental greenhouse is 55403. Only open it if your life is in danger.

Keep an eye on the clown, will you? She's likely to get bored, and that would be unpleasant for everyone, wouldn't it?

If you're a good boy, I'm bringing you back a present. And it's not even carnivorous!

For the record, the supernatural division at HPD has much better coffee than the general area of the precinct. Good on you, whoever is in charge of that! I assume the same can be said for you hotties in 5-0.

Someone want to come bail me out?

I didn't wake up expecting this to happen today, that's for sure. Apologies to the rescuer I alarmed by diving down - couldn't let my hat sink.

I've opened an Etsy shop for my herbs and teas! If you're interested in anything, let me know. I specialize in medicinal teas and treatments, such as those for headaches and nausea, but I did a little work alongside a midwife before I got pulled through again so I have a lot of experience with those for morning sickness, etc.

There'll also be some vegan recipes as well, because who doesn't need more vegan recipes?

'Garden Party' this weekend (iykwim~)! Friday night into Saturday morning. Bring snacks and things to camp with, we're sleeping under the stars. Snitches get stitches.

Aramis.

ARAMIS.

Moms, Dad, expect something in the mail soon

There's gotta be some kind of party going on somewhere. Someone spill.

Tris, I didn't know your dads were in a boyband when they were young.

Found a gym willin to let a washed up Musketeer teach kids self-defense. If you have kids between 8-18 and you don't mind signin a waiver, it's on King st. Official classes start next week, but I'm around if you wanna interrogate me. I enjoy a good interrogation.

If you don't have kids, but wanna be able to take care of yourself, we can talk about that too. Just know I'm a lot rougher with adults.

I'd like to give a warm welcome to the Lili`uokalani Botanical Garden's newest intern, Ms. Ella Booth! We're terribly excited to have her charm and expertise as we prepare our gardens for the upcoming spring.

Ella, I've got a few papers for you to sign and a few shots you'll need to take since you'll be hanging out more than most with me, and I want to make sure that I wouldn't be a single bit of danger to you.

[ooc; An engagement ring! It's made of enchanted wood instead of metal and has a pretty diamond stone instead of an opal.]

I need an axe. Or gardening tools. For science.

[OOC: Absolutely in response to this which you should all watch because asldjfkCOLINSTOP.]

I attempted vegan pancakes. Who wants to give them a shot? Ella, I already set yours aside.

Okay, something's up with Liam. He keeps ma'aming me and asking random questions about me and the station. I'm close to interrogating him.

Guuuuuuys, my dad is proposing at the end of the month. I forgot how wonderful 2015 is.
