“I see. Has anyone tried mixing it with blue?” The absence of blue in that mixture has her curious.

"Oh yeah," says Leon, sounding suddenly exhausted at the reminder. "It's kind of a big argument right now. Yellow and blue alone don't seem to do much, but red, yellow, and blue? Make you incredibly sick. Like, for days, if not a week or two. Some people claim it's because it's because you're flushing all the built up toxins out of your system and that you'll be healthier after doing it, but most real doctors say that's a load of bullshit. I'd try to avoid it, personally."

“I see. The warning is appreciated.” And now she knows a good blend of ‘tea’ in case she needs to outmaneuver an unwelcome guest against whom she is physically outmatched.”

"I'd appreciate being shown, if and when you have the time. I find it rather soothing, to venture out in search of herbs. I've liked to gather flowers ever since I was a young womer; even as different as life is now, it still takes me back."

"You've got it. I'll let you know next time I head out there - should be in a couple of days."

They grow fast, after all, and he doesn't want them to get too out of hand without him there to cull the patch where he's been planting them.

"Maybe you can teach me a thing or two when we're down there. I don't really know my plants too well, beyond what I just told you."

"I can teach you a few foraging tricks, I suppose. Eyes are not always all-reliable in avoiding misidentification."
