While the cafeteria is closed, there is a large selection of fresh fruits, vegetables, and honey available for consumption in the greenhouse. For anyone currently ill, I can deliver to rooms or the infirmary at your request.

[Castiel is making what are more-or-less fruit baskets in the greenhouse, if you choose to go up and get one.]

[This is Castiel, your local herbology professor + fairy. He's about two feet tall, with constantly fluttering wings so he can fly at your eye level. Also, he's in the greenhouse, which does seem to have sustained some damage from the earthquake.]

Hello. This is a notice that the greenhouse has taken some slight damage during the earthquake and some plants will need to be repotted or relocated. Any students interested in doing so may report to the greenhouse at any time within the next three days for extra credit and a bonus to their house.

That being said, doing this extra credit will not cancel out the assignment for 1000 words on the restorative properties of the illmerida leaf that is due tomorrow. I should be available in my office or can be found in the greenhouse all day today for anyone who requires extra help with this.

Additionally, although I would think this would be obvious, any student caught stealing from the greenhouse will face severe house penalties and potentially expulsion from both the class and the greenhouse. If you have taken several pieces of equipment from the shed, you are advised to replace them today while I'm not looking and no penalty will be handed out.

[FILTERED to LUA]

I'd like to see the result of the equipment you've borrowed recently; obviously, you're more capable than I originally thought.

Several beehives have been added to the greenhouse. The bees are the species Apis mellifera mellifera, or colloquially Black Irish Native or European dark bee. Please be advised that these creatures are not aggressive, but may sting if disturbed. If a bee comes near you, please simply allow it to pass without swatting at it. Do not kill the bees. If you are stung, please go to the infirmary, but also note that in the absence of an an allergy, the bee sting, while painful and itching, will cause no permanent harm. If you are aware of a bee allergy and are stung, please go to the infirmary immediately so that an anaphylactic reaction can be dulled or avoided.

The hives are not to be in any way disturbed without my explicit permission, and anyone caught doing without my notice so will be punished. This also applies to the other greenhouse staff.

The hives should produce some fresh honey - would the cafeteria be interested?

Additionally, several of the terrestrial and subterranean plants from Risa are in the process of being transplanted to their new homes in the greenhouse. These should be very closely monitored and any change or apparent distress from them should be brought to me immediately, as we learn more about their ideal environment.

Boxes will most likely be added to keep the subterranean species to more closely simulate their true environment.

Can you imagine what it must be like to be an ant?

Problems that humanity deals with would seem irrelevant - the warming of the planet and all it's related consequences, the population explosion and the subsequent issues, including overcrowding and famine, the expansion of information, and the overwhelming perseverance of human violence. But there would be other problems - like the catastrophe of the appearance of an anteater or another predator animal. There would be tasks like to gather food. And there would be nothing but the colony and the queen.

Now imagine if an ant were to become a human. How difficult it would be to grapple with basic bodily functions, and the variety of emotions and chemical responses each action and reaction brings. Even humans must learn to walk - can you imagine if an ant tried to learn to be bipedal? I imagine it would be a task more monumental than for a human to enter space.

It's difficult to think outside your boundaries, no matter what you start as. Difficult to understand something or someone on a scale dimensions different than yours.

This is how I feel the Admiral sees us.

[PRIVATE to Ivy]

How would you feel about beehives in the greenhouse? I think they would benefit the plants greatly.

[PRIVATE to the ADMIRAL]

Would you permit beehives to be added to the greenhouse?

[PRIVATE to DRACULA]

I'm sorry that I killed you.

I'm sorry if my brother was rude to anyone. He can sometimes be a bit abrasive, especially given these circumstances.

Admiral, I'd like to be the supervising warden of the greenhouse.

Rasitlin, how are you feeling?

[LOCKED to LUA]

What sort of things does Richie like?

[Castiel is in the greenhouse.]

The demon Shendu has been smote and cast to oblivion; he won't bother this ship any longer, nor his host. I hope any sustained injuries have been taken care of. Thank you, jailor, for feeding my vessel while it hungered. And to Eddie and his associate, for freeing me from that cell. Its power was suffocating.

Does the cafeteria serve hamburgers and.. [he pauses, considering the the words] "root beer"?

[PRIVATE to the ADMIRAL]

All I know about you is your negligence and great strength, but I see no harm in requesting a number of. I can pick up a tree or bush of any size, weight or height and any place on this ship, so that won't be a concern. I suppose you'll probably ignore this. I won't be offended.

[Castiel details a lengthy list of plants that require all kinds of habitats and climates, from your classic chrysanthemum and wildflowers to venus fly traps, massive redwoods and parasitic vines. He knows all of their scientific names, of course. He's shooting for the moon here.]

[PRIVATE to ARTHAS]

You're no demon. Are you one of purgatory's children?

[PRIVATE to HOFFMAN and BUFFY]

I politely request you not banish me.

[WARDEN FILTER]

Has there been any news of Dean? The possibility of two wardens being incapacitated is unpleasant. Though I have all confidence he can rescue himself from any attackers, it still concerns me that he is imprisoned somewhere.

The Admiral truly has no interested in maintaining order in his prisoners.

Also, is it common for the barge inhabitants to be powerless?

[PUBLIC]

I've been to the greenhouse and found it lacking. Is there a place to put in a form to ask for certain seeds or plants? Where would these even be acquired?

[EDITED TO ADD, SHORTLY AFTER, PRIVATE to KAY.]

Buffy's alerted me that Dean's escaped and is safe.

.... Dean has contacted me. He sounds sufficiently healthy.
