The kid had seemed oblivious to his approach until Florian had something. That was a little alarming since not all strangers would be friendly or kind when they approached, but the pup seemed to realize that as well. It seemed that he took his time in considering if he should answer Florian or not, remaining quiet for a moment before he spoke in a surprisingly monotone voice for a child. This caught Florian off-guard; he’d never heard a kid sound so robotic, nor one without the gleam of life and excitement in their eyes. It was almost a little unsettling, Flo realized with a frown. To see a kid who seemed so much like a beaten, downtrodden or dull adult almost… Still, he would remain polite and listen to the younger wolf explain.

He didn’t know what the flowers were but he wanted to move them to the right side of the border so he could test them. Interesting. It seemed the kid was already developing a scientific brain as well. Florian gave a small nod of understanding all the same. As a healer, it was not uncommon for him to test different herbs and see what sort of properties they might have. Granted their effects might be stronger or weaker depending on the creature it was given to and the dosage as well

“I’d imagine you would need to remove the rocks, carefully of course, and then dig an area around the plant to keep the roots intact. Keeping some of the soil together certainly wouldn’t hurt the plant, and may even help it when it was transplanted. The hard part will be shifting the stones without damaging too much of the plant. It’ll be a delicate operation… though with smaller and nimbler paws you may do better at it than you think. I’d be happy to try giving you a paw though.” Florian explained.

As for the follow-up question, Florian furrowed his brow. “I’m not entirely sure what they’re for, truth be told. I’ve never experimented with them before. But I am mostly certain they are called Purple saxifrage. They’re a pretty flower though, either way.” Florian furrowed his brow. “This may go without saying but… just be careful when you experiment with them, alright? I’m sure it goes without saying but never test on yourself or someone you care about when you don’t know what something does.” He moved closer to the rocks and the boy, moving forward to gingerly lift the stone out of the cluster of flowers and move it off to the side.
