Incorrect. Blueberries are less filling, have less fiber, and make inferior juice.

[heavyliesthecrown]

They are considered a superfood for a reason, you know. They are full of antioxidants, can lower blood pressure and studies have shown they may help fight against cancer and heart disease. In addition to this, they maintain brain function and may improve memory.

These are only some of their benefits.

[strateelgic]

... Have you been researching blueberries?

[heavyliesthecrown]

It is more that I feel I have been lectured on various foods before. I must have been, to know something of it.

[ . . . ]

But also I have been bored and researched a little on Blueberries.

[strateelgic]

That's adorable.

[heavyliesthecrown]

It is nothing compared to your mushroom research.

[strateelgic]

I always go hard when I find something that fascinates me.

[heavyliesthecrown]

Did you have that same fascination with mushrooms prior to gaining a ticket to land?

[strateelgic]

Not at all!

[heavyliesthecrown]

Love at first shroom?

[strateelgic]

More like an interest that grew as I studied nature in general. Fungus is fascinating in the way it interacts with the ecosystem. They're far more interesting in flowers in how they differ and what they're capable of.

[heavyliesthecrown]

[He cannot see what is so interesting about them. But it makes him happy that Levi enjoys them so much. It is such a harmless hobby.]

If I ever find any in my explorations, I will collect and give them to you.

[strateelgic]

Absolutely do not do this.

[heavyliesthecrown]

Eh? Why not?

. . . Is this because you are worried about the recent mushroom infestation? I would certainly recognize those and avoid them.

[strateelgic]

But would you be able to tell when any others might be poisonous? Deadly?

Even with harmless mushrooms you shouldn't go around plucking them willy-nilly or you might keep them from growing in that area again.

[heavyliesthecrown]

[ . . . ]

I understand your point. Though that could be said of many plants here.

[strateelgic]

I wouldn't want you going around picking any plants without doing your research either.

[heavyliesthecrown]

You worry far too much. I have survived just fine this long, you know.

[strateelgic]

You died the first day I met you.

[heavyliesthecrown]

[Which time was that again-]

Yes, well-- to my credit, I visited the underworld willing. Therefore, it cannot be held against me.

[strateelgic]

You have a crush on someone who's previously drowned you.

[heavyliesthecrown]

. . . Did you have to throw that back into my face?

[Quietly. Hurt. Everything, including whatever good cheer he had a moment ago abruptly vanishes.]

You could have said anything. But chose to pick something that would cut like a knife.

[ . . . He feels a little shell-shocked by it, in fact. It isn't even what he did in the past that is so upsetting now. It is the way it is being used against his heart.]

At least do not shame or weaponize my feelings.

[He swallows the ache down, the anger at being shamed, and turns to return to Bluebell.]
