Welcome! Succy
James paced in his bedroom in front of me. His long blonde hair trailed behind him as he read excitedly.He had a boxy welcoming him just like me. Perhaps he was granted sentience as well....
He watered me since he hadn't for a few days, and I thanked him like I always do, but he couldn't hear me, like he always couldn't. I still like him all the same
"Status", another boxy appeared before him. All I could make out was his name; I already knew that.
He spoke to me with his gentle voice,"Hey bud, how bout' ya join my party. That way you can get XP when I kill monsters and I can get XP when you use that passive of yours." He was adamant about it, so I accepted. I would've joined anyway
James Has used the GardenMancer skill [Commune] to add you to his party!
All XP will be shared evenly between both parties.
Your companionship synergy grows stronger by being in a party with one another!
James jumped with excitement when we both got that boxy. I would have too, If I had legs."Alright, since this shit is straight out of a video game, you can check your status. It's good to know where you stand bud, so go ahead and think of it and see how OP you are!", BOXY BOX on the ROX:

James saw the blue in front of me and was overjoyed. I saw the blue in his eyes as he used what I assumed was the [Observe] skill. "Since we both have observe, why don't you observe me?", I did and a HUGE moxy zoxy boxy appeared:

James is OP, I finished reading his status. I'm so lu-, my thoughts were interrupted by a box that both James and I could see. As we reached the middle of that strange day, the beginning of the first apocalyptic wave was signaled by ANOTHER BLUE BOXY:
~\| Wave 1 |/~

"Alright bud, let's kick some rotten ass!", James took my pot to the living room and sat me down at a bookshelf near the front door. The door was mostly glass, with wood on the outside to provide some sort of structure. I could see the porch outside that had swings, chairs, and tables on it, but most importantly, I could see rotten undead shambling towards our dwelling, intending to wreak havoc.
It was midday by then and I received a boxy congratulating me on my great achievement:
Level Up! 0 - 1
[gallery]All core stats increased by 1!
+1 sp
+1 PRIK
Choose a skill to celebrate your first level!:

Skill Nature: Melee, Succulent, Nature
[PRIKARROW]
Summon an amount of arrows covered in needles. Amount of arrows based upon your PRIK points/2 | DMG based upon INT
I chose the arrows. James was notified of my choice by a boxy and promptly moved me farther away from the front door. He ran into the kitchen and scrambled back to the living room. He drew a dark green plastic trowel and readied for battle as the undead tripped up the stairs to the porch.
The 'zombies', as James calls them, broke the glass portion of the door. James didn't hesitate and swung his trowel. One, two, three, KO, the intruder stood no chance against James. Two undead, one tackled James and the other rushed at me. I summoned arrows to kill the one rushing me as James fought off the zombie that tackled him. My arrows hit the zombie in both its eyes, and it went limp. Jack was scratched several times as he flipped the zombie over and mutilated it. By the time it went limp, it was missing several parts that, were it alive, would be important for the continuance of its bloodline. The last undead attempted a mad charge at me and met a similar fate to his friend that tried to attack me before. The boxy praised and rewarded us for out triumph:
!!!VICTORY!!!

James was excited by my new skill. He spent the rest of the day cleaning the mess made by the undead and putting out more pots. As long as James is happy, I thought to myself as the sun set in a crimson pool of light.
I drifted into the closest thing a succulent can get to sleep. I love James.
