Overgrowth (he's very proud of the name) has been a Miracle for a fairly long time--two whole weeks, as it happens. Since his Manifestation, he's fought about four other Miracles around his age, and even an adult... and lost every time. On the bright side, he did manage to carve himself out a decent garden in an abandoned allotment--until some trumped up little Miracle decided to steal his beets.
"Give em' back!"
"After I finish eatin'."
He eats from the bag of food quietly.
Then he stuffs the rest into his pocket dimension and starts walking.
Walking is kind of boring isn't it.
"Hey if you can't do weird superplants you can probably make, like, furniture. And walls. Furniture's made of trees."
"Farmers really hate weeds... Or parts of plants? I'm thinking you make a tree branch into a table, and then we kill the branch and have a table to sell, easy as pie- Easy as beans."
"Well, you don't have to. It's your power. Maybe if we act nice enough, you can make some farmer's crop grow real good and they don't think it's a trick, start with that? I'm not sure how I could sell my powers except maybe the animal-scaring one. It works on rats so I could de-rat a house."
"I don't think anyone will trust me to give their stuff back. Not unless I do a bunch of stuff for them for free. I'm carrying around a bunch of junk in Nick Space that might be what someone needs, being a shop on two feet. So I guess I'm sorta already doing that."
With a slight smirk, a hole in the air opens above Overgrowth and water pours out of it into his head.
"Yep. Usually a bad idea since it'd make a mess. It's, like, a not-room room that only I can see? I can open doors into the real world wherever I want in it. Have to push though. I can shake it up real good, or turn it around and around, but I have to actually reach in to grab stuff."
