His brain? Carmin looked upward, trying to think if he even had a brain. On one end, he could think and stuff, typical signs of having a brain. He also didn't have to worry about not having veins or a nervous system for one since his eyes and ears seemed to still work without those things present. But then on the other hand, that lady never once mentioned him having a brain. He remembered her very clearly saying that he was a pansy plant with shape, eyes, ears and a mouth.

Well, either way, it was probably a good idea to try and find someone good with magic plants. "I'll maybe do that. Thanks."

Then when it came to new stuff going on with him... There was actually more than usual. He'd gotten a job as a songwriter, but that was embarrassing, so there'd be no talk about that. Then he made up with Ferret finally, maybe he could bring that up...

"Well, I made a new friend. Her name's Ferret, she's a dragon, I'm sure you've met her before."

Gabe gave a small nod before perking up at the mention of Ferret. It's true that he had met her a few times back in the community center, but he didn't know too much about the dragon. It was also a bit strange to picture her being friends with Carmin, of all things. She seemed much more unruly and wild in comparison to the plant boy's almost stoic and serious nature. Maybe opposites attract? He raised a brow at Carmin, leaning in slightly.

"Yeah, I've met Ferret before. Not gonna lie, I'm surprised that you're friends with her. But not, like in a bad way. More in the 'how did you two meet and get along' kind of way? Because she doesn't seem to be the type of person you'd hang out with? Or maybe I just don't know what I'm talking about." Gabe laughed, scratching the back of his head.

"So, how did that friendship start? I'm curious."

Carmin seemed to consider the question for a moment before looking back at Gabe with his typical deadpan expression. “Poorly.”

“If I’m being honest, we didn’t get along at all when we first met. She tended to misbehave and I was still getting used to the island. I wanted nothing to do with her.” The more he thought about it, the more he realized how far they’d come.

“But somewhere along the way she started trying to be better and after what was probably too long, I noticed. Then after that we eventually just started getting along I suppose.”

Gabe let out a small hum, crossing his arms over his chest as he looked over to Carmin with a mix of satisfaction and curiosity. "I could imagine."

"But it's good that you get along now. I know there's people here who can be... abrasive. And frankly, a downright pain in the butt. So if you think she's trying to be better, that's something I can definitely respect and relate to."
Gabe let out a small laugh before exhaling with a slow sigh.. He wasn't sure what else to talk about. He got the idea that you bonded over common likes or dislikes but... what else could he talk about? Maybe they could hang out again but at a place besides Gabe's work?

"Carmin, would you... want to hang out again after this? Like, not at my work? We could go wander around somewhere or do something. I just feel bad because it's hard to do anything fun when I'm stuck manning the counter." He laughed, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Yes. Everyone seems to have a different reaction to coming here. People come from some pretty crazy backgrounds too, which only complicates it." The planty boy frowned.

He perked up when Gabe suggested they hang out again somewhere other than the flower shop. That sounded like a great idea. "It's alright. Even when we're here just talking, this is pretty okay. But yes, I'd be good with hanging out somewhere else for sure."

He enjoyed hanging out with Gabe like this when there was nothing wrong. Although to be honest he just enjoyed hanging out with people in general. He was starting to get a lot better at socializing and stuff like this always helped.

"Cool!" Gabe said excitedly, then coughed slightly. Had to downplay the excitement a little bit. "Umm, I mean, yeah. That's cool. You have my number so you can always text me and we can plan out a day. I'm up to do whatever..."

He ran his hand through his hair, trying to keep it out of his face. "And you know if you ever need help with plant stuff, I'll do my best to help. And not from like, a business thing. This is me offering as your friend." He grins, his fanged teeth showing bright. He was comfortable with Carmin. Carmin wouldn't care about Gabe's teeth. Especially since he's seen a much worse side of the plant manipulator already.
