That caught his attention, "Different how? I mean." He shifted around on his feet, "If it's like, you mean, magic—" he spoke the word quietly in public, "—then this stuff might not work. I dunno. I mean, I've never tried using stuff like this on my plants." Though, he did suppose he was going to go ahead and try, but he didn't consider the sprout to be one of his plants either, since it had like, sentience.

"Is it anything like the rot going on in the state forest?" He hadn't had a chance to check the trees out there, but it sounded pretty bad. His expression got a little gloomy at the realization, "'Cause Mercer says it's possibly related to the third principal, since they'd represent the tree and all and we can't ********' find them."
"Maybe that's what's wrong with your tree." He went back to looking at the rows of Miracle-Gro, "Or maybe it is just something else, but if it's different after the sigil and glows and s**t..." He pursed his lips, "...anyway, I can still look at it though. I still have a lot of plant magic, so it could still be worth it. I'm pretty much open whenever—" He paused, "—well, like, when I don't have school, or work, or Court..."

"Yeah, but I haven't really been looking either." He shrugged, "I've been really busy." That was a little bit of an understatement. "I at least know where the other two are, so that's something."
But whatever. So long as he stayed not-dead and America stayed not-dead, that case was effectively closed and under wraps. "Anyway, I'll prolly be free for the rest of the week, so long as it's after... noon?" It was obvious that he didn't have his hours totally situated, "Sorry, I got a calendar at home. I can't keep track otherwise. I'm free now though, if it counts?"

"Sounds good to me."
With a curt nod, Shun made his way on out.
Once Shiloh had finished his purchase and met back up with him, he began to lead the way back towards his apartment. He remained mostly quiet on while they walked.
Eventually, they arrived to his place up on the fourth floor of the building. The interior, once he unlocked the door, was fairly simple and clean. He didn't have too much in the way of decoration, but there was a couple of daggers hanging on the wall. There was also a cage on the ground with a sole rat inside. She perked up upon seeing and hearing Shun enter the room.
And there, on the coffee table, was the bonsai tree he had mentioned. There were tiny little blue bioluminescent lights within its leaves. However, several of these leaves were shriveled and blackened. There were a couple of dry husks on the table around it.
"I have been pruning it, but it does not seem to have helped much."
