notice: Hey Anon! I'm not really familiar with autistic behaviors and I don't have any friends that have autism. I don't want to invade in anyone's comfort zone writing about autism when I have zero experience with it. Still, big thank you! I'll just write your request how I think suits best. I'll write a scenario and some headcanons in the end. <3

characters: Arlan

content: Arlan adores your love towards botany and plants // fluff // gn! reader

warnings: none

"Y/n, what are you doing here?"

Arlan was surprised to see you since yesterday you were all stressed out by an ongoing project you and Herta work on. You carry heavy boxes and are visibly exhausted.

"Oh, Arlan! Didn't expect to meet you today... I'm so busy... Well, Herta asked me to grow some of her favorite flowers so she can see them everywhere in the space station. Now I'm planting them everywhere."

Arlan looked at you with a soft smile, just standing there. You're adorable in your dirtied pants and garden supplies. In your hair sticks a flower and of course there's a helpful bug on your shoulder. As he noticed that you nearly let the box fall he rushes to you and catches it. He laughs awkwardly.

"Didn't know Herta was invested in it that much... Do you mind showing me the area you're working on right now?"

"Sure!" You're glad your best friend is interested in your hobby. You get a lot of compliments for your honest work but rarely someone takes the time to have a conversation about botany.

You walk to an quieter area where you planted a lot of plants already. You smile as you see springtails on the dirt. Arlan puts the boxes on the ground and opens them. A blooming scent flies directly in his face and he blushes. The smell reminds him of you and it warms his heart. You're his best friend after all. Then he looks up to adore your work. Vibrant colors and fresh greens decorate the rather boring looking space station. It's all your work and passion.

"It's beautiful, y/n. I always envy you to have such a calming job. It's... It's like you make paintings of flowers real!"

You reply, shyly laughing "Well, if Asta wouldn't spend all her money so quickly it'd be way greener here. But she promised me to help me with some insects.. I can't pollinate every plant by myself now..."

Arlan nods silently and watches you digging a tiny hole in the dirt. As you pick up one of the purple blooming flowers he comes a little closer to inspect your mission detailed.

"What is this flower called?" He points out the purple flowers in the boxes and in your hand.

"Oh...the Latin name is clematis viticella. It's a similar flower that Herta wears in her hair."

You smile and plant the flower in the flowerbed, covering the roots with dirt and watering them a little bit. Then you dig the next hole for the next flower. The continuing thirty minutes Arlan spends time asking you what species you own. He gets completely dragged in a topic that is usually not his interest at all. He picks the boxes up once you finished and you both walk to get more plants. He's happy you find a way to be fulfilled here and that you're not lonely or bored. The whole day be spends helping you. He's not neglecting is duties and responsibilities, though he wants to adore your friendship. In the end you're the most important person to him.

"You know, Stella told me there's a Guard in Belobog who kinda sucks at taking care of their plants."

"The poor plants..."

"Mhm..."

▫️Arlan is one of the few people that love getting involved with your interest in botany.

▫️He's not afraid to handle some insects that you breed. It's rare to see living species like these so he is rather curious than scared.

▫️When you spend time in your room, he goes through some books and shows you what plants he really likes. It makes you happy whenever you see his bright face.

▫️Asta actually buys flowers from you to decorate her room with. Of course Arlan has to help her setting everything up.

▫️In his mind you're the best smelling person he knows. The strong scent of pollen and greens is soothing to him. To others you may be a nuisance since many people on the spaceship have allergies against pollen.

Happy Witchcore Samantha Wednesday!

This week's moodboard is the first in the Color/Flower Character Association series. This week's themes are Samantha, the color purple, irises suggested by @pastornovak, and monkshood and Clematis viticella flowers, suggested by @the-gray-ghosty . I hope you like it! It is VERY IMPORTANT that everyone should try to submit at least a couple of ideas so I can continue to provide weekly content. Currently, @pastornovak and I are asking people to send in colors and flowers they associate with Samantha and Cas, and we will make a miniseries out of that. Next week's theme will be Cas and blue, so please send in blue flowers that remind you of them!

*As with the rest of my moodboards, none of these pictures are my own, and I claim no credit for any art or design used, only for the concept created*

May your week begin with the lightest of moods! Happy Labour Day to those who celebrate.

A flower that reminds me of Samantha is the Clematis viticella

It's purple with a yellow middle, very pretty and vibrant!

What a beautiful flower! I've included it in tomorrow's moodboard! Thank you for the suggestion!
