So, Alyna does this thing in the morning where she sings to a small plant by the window of our apartment. She says it's to help it grow big and strong, and that singing to crops is common back in her home tribe. She also says that the plant she does sing to reminds her of home, and that singing to it helps with her home sickness. I find it rather sweet myself, and the fact that she does it every morning is is a great way to wake up, especially when work calls. The sun shining, the sky a nice light blue, and a literal bird (raptor) singing, it's like something out of a movie, and I love it.
It should be said, however, that her little plant, whom we both call Chris Plant, is actually Chris Plant II, since I... might've accidentally killed Chris Plant I. Sorta hit him during a rigging party while Alyna was out back at her tribe. Thankfully she was gone for a whole weekend, which gave me time to give Chris Plant a proper burial and order Chris Plant II before she came home. She still doesn't know, though I have placed precautions so Chris Plant II doesn't fall over, ie, moving him to the kitchen side window rather than the living room one, which Alyna has since appreciated more as it means I could cook while she sings.
Chris Plant II seems happier too, and I swear I see him dancing whenever I cook bacon. Could just be me though. Totally getting Chris Plant II a friend though, as he looks a little lonely during the night. Maybe Chris Stemsworth? Or Chris Leavans...
Hmmm...
