"Keh heh heh~! In your dreams, multibillion-dollar compa- Wait, isn't that bad for business?"

"Ah, then yes! He's as normal as a Farosh can possibly be... I guess?"

"Define 'okay'..."

"May I go deliver the sorrowful news to Susie?"

"What? Seriously, what? I'm so confused! What does that even mean?!"

". . . Ces imbéciles."

"Can you all pipe down for a moment? Good gravy, I'll never be able to get my violin retuned with all this quarreling..."

"Then would you care to take one out of this very basket? Picked by yours truly? Sitting right in front of you?"

"Peachy my friend! And I've got a basket full of them just to prove it~!"

"What about it? Don't tell me I'm being dragged along to Jambastion or Coily Rattler's shrine of worship..." He begrudgingly sat up against one of the few trees in Fine Fields, still clinging onto his self-made covers.

He turns away from the incessant chiming of bells, waving a single hand as to signal her to stop. "Give me five more minutes please..."

"Dear Nova, they're starting earlier than I anticipated... Hurry inside the bunker at once my Sectra Dees!"

Cancer.

"You are so right, Tsuki dearest... It's oh so maddening!" "I mean for Rattler's sake! What do those imbeciles even hope to accomplish by creating unnecessary fire hazards all over my property?!"

"Fireworks? I think you mean those missiles the Lower World keeps firing at us Floralians."

To his knowledge, the Comet had caught his eye and suddenly he was here! ". . . A-ack!?" He proceeded to blink at Rosalina's sudden inquiry, fumbling about with the watering pot in his grip. "Er, why yes, ma'am... These blossoms are far more radiant than the ones I've encountered in my own home!"

Taranza's mouth set in a hard line. He then cocked his head to the side, making a bemused expression. "Marx? Pfft, as if!" While scoffing at the question, he squints his upper eyes to infer Dimentio's true motives. "...Why? You wouldn't happen to be a fan, would you? Or perhaps he forced you—(+)"

"Exactly my point! I swear, most of these land dwellers are so eager to endanger themselves without reason..."

"I too would rather see Marx's new friend with my own eyes before making any judgements of their character..."

"Only a little scary? Well that's certainly an improvement from the likes of Magolor..."

"That's amazing! Shall we go congratulate him this second?"

"Finally done watering all 46,000 flowers, minus Flowery, in Fine Fields... Now what's all the hubbub?"

". . . I'm beginning to understand why Sir Meta Knight is so deathly afraid of you."

"Shouldn't we first get a chance to know Galacta Knight? Perhaps take him out to a local café for a date or something?"

"Aaand Tsuki's already planning to get into a fight with him! Phenomenal."

"Sometimes that was the case... Most other times, however, I learned the hard way to never take mother's words for granted."

"My mother used to frighten me with tales of how Galacta Knight would soak his wings in the blood of his enemies...!"

"I can hardly believe it myself. The Strongest Warrior in Gamble Galaxy... Personally, I figured he was only a myth."

"All is forgiven, Madame Flamberge. I just wasn't aware you were in the sauna business..."

"Phew... It is hot as hell in this funky ass hot ass room I'm in..."

". . . THAT WAS YOU?!"

"Dissociating! It's never steered me wrong!"

"H-huh? Didn't see you there, Rick! We're just talking about Flowery Woods..."

"Well for starters, I've neglected him-"

"Flowery was acting very strange when I paid them a visit yesterday... Have I done something to upset it?"

"I'm frankly more disturbed by how she feels the need to make herself the center of attention whenever Sectonia's mentioned..."

"To be completely honest with you, Rick... Yeah, I got nothing."

"She most certainly was. Her Majesty always knew how to make a dazzling entrance."

". . . Nova help me; this Flowery Friday has undoubtedly taken a weird route."

"Now there's a crispy smell in the air... And I suddenly have an immense craving for Escargot!"

"There he is again! Perhaps Susie had a point after all..."

"Am I beginning to get hallucinations from this heat, or was that Escargoon I saw just now?"

"How convenient... I'll still be far too busy nurturing all these plants on the continent."

"I've mostly given up on trying to decipher most Popstarians' crazy ramblings."

"I concur, my love... All because I left my sunhat back at Royal Road."

"M-melting? Oh dear, you absolutely need to hightail it out of here!"

"...And so I, Taranza, now hover corrected." "Morning, Francisca dearest~ What brings you to Fine Fields?"
