Yo! I could use a little bit of help here. Got myself a pet project. [grin] Don't suppose any of you fellas know a thing or two about growing plants would ya? I have a few in mind I'd need in greater quantity then I can get at the store.

[mulls] Come to think of it, I might need a few barrels too to get me started...

	[Completely misinterprets his meaning.] Ah, no, actually I've have been studying plants and botanical alchemy for most of my life. I know I'm just a kid, but... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well fine then. What can you tell me about wood? Need some for a barrel. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_counterfe995 2010-09-22 02:40 am UTC (link)
	Oh! Wood is really good for barrels. There are plenty of trees around that it could be harvested from, but you'd have to ask Acumen if that's okay, since you'd have to cut them down. What did you want to put in the barrel? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'd rather not. I'd just like ta keep this project between me and my partners, if ya don't mind? [shrugs] And I just wanna use it to hold something fer a little while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_counterfe995 2010-09-22 03:13 am UTC (link)
	Ah... Hm. If you want, I might be able to make one without cutting any trees down. It'd be kind of complicated, but I could try. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not gonna lie, that'd be great if you could, but if ya didn't want to make the full barrel, I just met myself a new friend who says he can. He just needs the raw materials to get himself started. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_counterfe995 2010-09-22 04:09 am UTC (link)
	Oh, okay. Well, I could probably provide those. Um, were there any other plants you were interested in? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[... switches to private, not that it was going to help keep the warden from listening in.] Don't know. Tyki said he had a farm he was working on so he'd try to grow a few things but I could always use extra. What'd you know about barley? [That seemed like the ingredient he'd need the most of and find the hardest time filching from the store.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] ex_counterfe995 2010-09-22 04:28 am UTC (link)
	A farm? [That sounds so cooool] Ah, barley? It's a kind of grain, it comes from a grass called Hordeum vulgare. It's used in bread and stews and-- um, in beer. [He knows this because it is one of the first things the people in Xenotime asked the Tringhams if they could grow.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] prince_avarice 2010-09-24 03:14 am UTC (link)
	Well what'd'ya know. The kid actually knows his stuff! Don't suppose it's easy to grow now is it? [Keep it up and Greed might even let Fletcher taste the finished product.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] ex_counterfe995 2010-09-24 03:17 am UTC (link)
	[If it's bread he would like to try some! :D :D :D] It is! It grows really quickly, and it's really adaptable to different climates. If you want, I could ask Acumen for some see-- [Pause.] Oh, you said it's a personal project, right...? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] prince_avarice 2010-09-24 03:39 am UTC (link)
	[Maybe if they ever needed a front for the club, but no. Good luck with that.] Yep. You catch on pretty fast. Tyki might have some though since he said he'd try to grow a few things for me too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] ex_counterfe995 2010-09-24 03:40 am UTC (link)
	Ah. Well, it hardly takes any time to germinate, so even people who aren't alchemists shouldn't have any trouble with it. But if you want me to help, I can. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] prince_avarice 2010-10-02 04:53 am UTC (link)
	[grins] You definitely have spirit. If ya wanna know more, talk to Tyki. It's good to have you on board! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Private] ex_counterfe995 2010-10-02 04:56 am UTC (link)
	Ah, okay! Thank you very much. (Reply to this) (Parent)
