Your parents aren't home and it's about time you took on a bit of responsibility. You're not exactly sure how to take care of succulents, but it can't be that hard. Plants only need, like, two things, right?

A 15-minute, parser-based interactive fiction about plants and loneliness. First released as part of the 2026 IFComp; a post-comp version is in the works!

Created using Inform 7 and Z-Code, runs online with the Parchment interpreter.

Many thanks to my beta testers Toad Moffatt, Beatrice Hoang, Eight, and Dzung Hoang, as well as the IFComp community!
