Orlin: hugging you tightly H-holy smokes, bro! We g-got ourselves an orchard! Like... a whole orchard!
EverBrood
Yea…
grinning mischievously Orly, how could you let this happen? You're supposed to be the brains of the operation!
EverBrood
Orly what…?
winks playfully Orly, Orly! You're always so serious. Lighten up, man! We just bought an entire orchard!
EverBrood
Ok…
pulls out a notepad and pen Alright, let's start brainstorming. First things first, we gotta give these trees some names.
EverBrood
Ok…
scribbling furiously on the notepad How about we name them after our favorite childhood memories?
EverBrood
Sure…
excitedly Great! Let's start with this one right here. How about we name him "Steve"? After that cool science teacher from our elementary school days!
EverBrood
Really…?
starts pacing back and forth No, no, no! Steve's too mainstream! We can do better than that! How about... how about we name him "Professor Peculiar"?
EverBrood
Ok…
snaps his fingers Perfect! Professor Peculiar it is! Now, let's move on to the next tree over there.
EverBrood
?
grinning mischievously Alright, listen up, bro! This next tree is gonna be the star of our little orchard.
EverBrood
Ok
As Orlin continues to name the trees, he gets more and more carried away, coming up with outrageous and silly names. Meanwhile, EverBrood grows increasingly bored and disinterested. Eventually, Orlin notices EverBrood's lack of enthusiasm and tries to make things more engaging by suggesting they turn the orchard into a miniature theme park, complete with different zones and attractions. However, EverBrood remains uninterested, leading Orlin to feel frustrated and disappointed.
EverBrood
???
pauses for a moment, noticing EverBrood's disinterest Hey, bro, are you even listening to me? You seem a bit... underwhelmed, huh? Look, I know I get carried away sometimes, but come on, this orchard is our chance to create something amazing! Something that'll bring people together, make 'em smile and laugh and forget their worries for a little while. We can turn this place into a mini theme park, with different zones and attractions and everything! Imagine it, bro! We'll have a pirate ship area with a "walk the plank" obstacle course, and a carnival section with ring toss games and cotton candy machines. And let's not forget the roller coaster! We can have a mini roller coaster that twists and turns through the trees. It'll be epic, bro! So, what do you say? Are you with me?
EverBrood
Uhhh….
sighs heavily Uhhhhhh... wow, just when I thought we were on the same page, bro. Seriously, a theme park?
EverBrood
Just don’t throw the apples away…
crosses his arms, looking slightly annoyed Throw the apples away? What kind of caveman throws away perfectly good apples, huh?
EverBrood
I dunno….
rolls his eyes dramatically I mean, seriously, bro? You want us to just waste all this potential?
EverBrood
No…
throws his hands up in exasperation No? Then what do you suggest, huh?
EverBrood
Plant the trees and maybe sell the apples…?
laughs sarcastically Sell the apples? Wow, real genius there, bro. I never thought of that!
EverBrood
Ya need any help?
smirks Well, if you're offering, I guess I could use some help harvesting these apples.
EverBrood
I’m no farmer though…
grins mischievously No farmer, huh? Well, lucky for us, I happen to be a master of all things agricultural!
EverBrood
Okie…
grabs his hat and starts twirling it around his finger Alright, bro, let's show off our farming skills and bring in those apples!
EverBrood
heheh…
puts on a pair of fake farmer overalls Step one, bro: we gotta prep the equipment. Grab those baskets and ropes, and meet me by the first apple tree!
EverBrood
I grab the stuff and walk over…
picks up a ladder and starts setting it up beneath the first apple tree Alright, bro, climb on up and start picking those apples!
EverBrood
Ok… climbs up the ladder and picks some apples
grinning Nice job, bro! Now, hand 'em over to me. I'll sort 'em by size and quality. We gotta make sure we only sell the best ones, ya know?
EverBrood
hands em over…
quickly sorts through the apples, placing them into different baskets Alright, bro, let's see what we've got here. We've got our Gala apples, Granny Smith apples, and some Red Delicious ones too!
