If I am to choose a magical plant in a garden. It’s hard to choose.
I have a lot of needs, and even desires that clash around.
Even choosing what magical powers they have will pose a great dilemma.
I have ideas in my head.
I want a plant; I have a problem.
So, I’m not going to get one.
Because I have a problem.
But I want a plant.
But I have a problem.
So, it’s a no.
What would be the options of plants anyway?
Nothing, so I am going to create my own options.
That will somehow tempt me, somehow would draw me in.
Let me see.
I have a genie plant that will fulfill your 3 wishes.
I have a portable plant that will help your lonely life to be better, it is your assistant. You can picture and personalize their look, you can mechanic them, or you can plantisize them.
I have a portal plant that lets you travel with no effort. It can bring you to places by going through their large fangs as a disguise of a door to the other side.
I have a human plant that functions as a human, but they can’t be seen by others, you must keep them safe, hide them. It can transform into an ordinary plant if you bring them out for the other eye to see. It can become your best friend and a walking diary, it won’t betray you.
Plants are the most reliable species in the world to confide in.
I have a herbalist plant; it can heal any pain and illnesses you may have. Their power resides in finding your own power hiding inside, and they will hold tight to this to give you the strength you need, not want. It can communicate to your internals in which you cannot communicate directly to.
I have a vision plant; it holds memories of your life. Even the tiniest, little details you overlooked and the picture of dead people dear to you so you won’t forget and so there’s something you can go to if you want to see them again.
I have a side plant that shows the other side of the idea. It will show you different kinds of shoes and different directions for you to understand something you are not going through or seeing. It can make you feel living on the other side, what’s it like living in other shoes, what’s it like to feel it? What it's like to see other living perspective angle.
I have a mirror plant that mirrors you so you could judge yourself whether you want to change them, love them, hate them, and anything you could do on how you will treat yourself better. As if you were seeing your own reflection for the first time, not only just living with it but also assessing them, learning more about you.
I have a home plant that builds an emergency house or place to stay in with all the things you need. It can also build an emergency hiding place in times of world desperation, crisis and pandemic like zombies, it will be my go-to, to confide in and run in.
I have a monitoring plant too, but it would be disturbing to confide in them most of the time. I need to shut problems in my life, and I need to stop monitoring how and when the world will ever end. Monitoring plants can do any monitoring of our world, it can be a curse or a blessing to own one. A caution to remember, not all the problems are yours, and not all the problems are all for you to solve. Do not own every problem you see. Do not carry the world’s problems on your own.
I have a shape plant; it can transform into anything you want. If you want to see a thing in person, you can trust this plant to inspire your creativity.
I have a com plant, scary but I love it. You can talk to them just like all the plants above, but this plant is the only open plant you can talk to because it’s in their DNA. Very basic but what I love about this plant is they can send a message to a person or people you can’t talk to. Only they send it through the waves of dreams, if they are living. I know some people would ignore their dreams but this dream is vivid and detailed enough for them to think it’s a no deal.
And you know what? Of all the plants I created above, I will choose to keep the last one.
The com-plant, I know I can tell them anything. I want to feel heard at least and ease the pain of hiding.
I want to express every feeling, any spectrum, any great thoughts and ideas without the worry of being stolen.
I want to be better
I want to practice
I want to live.
