ryan kinkade is nice to bees. When one comes buzzing around him he’s like “how kind of you to think I am a flower” and he stays very still not to startle them and helps them to get outside when they come in through his window by mistake.
he has a real green thumb and used to actually keep a garden at home, first because his mom used to keep it but eventually didn’t have time for it anymore. he felt kind of sad to see such lively things, beings!, whither. it helps him calm down when he’s anxious or upset, they don’t ask questions and are willing to just listen when/if you’re ready to talk. so he volunteers at the garrison greenhouse.
and guess what? he loves flowers too!! dandelions are his favourite, he used to pick them all the time, and others, as gifts for his mother when he was a kid because and she taught him to make wishes on them when they were fluffy. some people say they aren’t flowers (the kids in preschool that used to make fun of him for example) but just because they’re common doesn’t mean they can’t be beautiful. and just because you like flowers doesn’t mean you’re “unmanly”, anyways he doesn’t have time for your toxic ideas of masculinity. he loves gifting and receiving them.
there’s not much of them in the desert, so he is content with the succulents on his window sill for now.
