The greenhouse was large, vast really. The further you trekked into it the thicker the flora and fauna seemed to get. Thick vines grew up the side of the building and several small trees stretched towards the light of the ceiling. Through the dense jungle a light, happy humming could be heard from a place on the far side of the structure, hidden behind the dirigible trees and their ripe purple fruit.
Demelza was on her knees, a light coating of dirt covered her jeans and boyish grey tee. She was intensely focused on the newly acquired Alihotsy tree as she pruned it with the most delicate of hands. On wrong snip of the scissors and she could end up with a bit of leaf fluid on her hand… which according to the previous mysterious owner of the tree could produce a slight state of euphoria and laughter. Nothing compared to consuming the leaves or even drinking them in a brew but she still had no desire to wind up in a laughing fit.
Spotting a dead leaf in the under branches she bent over further, her arse sticking up in the air as she reached for the offending brown monster, head buried inside the mess of branches. “Why you little wanker…” the tall blonde pushed her glasses up her nose and continued to wrestle with the tree, extending her arm as far is could go, grasping at air.
She huffed in annoyance and bent even further, nearly crawling under the short but extremely bushy tree. Honestly, Maxwell would be there at any moment and she did NOT want to be caught unawares like this.
