That's the one.

sweet

The path to BASIL's house is very pretty. There are flowers and bird sounds. The bird sounds in particular were really surprising. They include this one bird that I hear all the time in real life but never in stock bird sound effects. Listening closer there are lots of individually-identifiable bird calls that do not sound like stock bird effects. I bet the sound designer took a bunch of really regional birds and put them together to create exactly this effect. Big fan.

I was googling the song that plays in the forest to BASIL's house and I got unspecifically spoiled that something bad is about to happen in the next hour or two of playtime (someone used the phrase "reality crashing down" and someone else used the phrase "took a turn"). Glad I didn't learn anything specific! I should have predicted that I shouldn't search for anything related to this game until I'm done lol

There's this plant thingy stomping around to the west. BASIL says "please stop stomping the flowers." One of the party members says "what is that thing" and someone says "it's a SPROUT MOLE, they get dangerous when they're lost." And then it attacks us because it doesn't like the way we're looking at it or something. Another fight!

Oh good we're learning about emotions. The SPROUT MOLE is ANGRY. That gives it high attack and low defense. I wonder if you can help the LOST SPROUT MOLE get back home, rather than beating it up. But no, we just attack it until it dies. The SPROUT MOLE disappears and BASIL celebrates that the flowers are unharmed.

So did this one actually die? Did we actually kill something with our spatula, bouncy ball, and KNIFE? Who knows? We have more on-the-nose comparisons between flowers and characters to get through.

Roses are HERO because they have lots of colors and HERO is good at lots of things. Gladioluses or "sword flowers" represent strength of character and honesty, so they're AUBREY.

OK cool so now there's another SPROUT MOLE fight. This one is HAPPY, which increases your crit rate and decreases your accuracy. I made him angry and then killed him.

We also learn that there's apparently an RPS system. HAPPY>ANGRY>SAD>HAPPY. I also learned why I was doing Juice damage to BOSS in the beginning. I made him sad because I thought I'd decrease his attack. Turns out it didn't. Whoops! Lesson learned.
