I have acquired a pet leaf. It followed me all the way to the tube station this morning, so I took sympathy on it.
OK, so it had got wound up in a bit of thread that was in turn attached to my shoe, but to my mind that just shows admirable dedication.

Will it do tricks? Will you take it for long rambling walks with a pretty yellow ribbon tied around its stalk?

What are you going to call it?

Happy little leaf. *pat pat*

[liadnan]

Blue, I think. The tricks I'm working on.

Aloysius? (no points)

[liadnan]

It does seem happy. But don't pat too hard, it's a bit brittle...

Oh my Gawd, Marcus is a Catholic poof!

Yer hair's going to have to get floppier to get away with that one, dear boy.

[liadnan]

Halfway there... Always wanted floppy hair.

Just remember, that in that context, Catholic is far, far worse than being gay.

[liadnan]

Have you told your uncle(?) that?

Blue doesn't go so well with brown. Perhaps a mehendi green?
As for the tricks, how about teaching it to blow away in a strong gust of wind and to crumble when patted briskly? I daresay the last trick can only be perfected once though.....

Is it purebred? If so, I would love to attain a member of its litter as soon as possible. If not, neuter it. Or it will create non-show leaves.
We will have to drown them in a bag down by the river if that happens.

My uncle's not upper-class English, so he's perfectly okay.

[liadnan]

..ah, that's a fair point. But then, nor am I really, despite posing as such...
(The 'half' is a little bit of either part in any event... does that help me?)

[liadnan]

But but that would be tragic...
I'm not sure if it's purebred, but the hassle of breeding isn't something I'm sure I want to get into at the moment. I might show it though.
