[As it wasn't clear what purpose the false indigos he found might serve, Mort tears a few off with his middle and index fingers. On his chest were several wildflowers, which he kept from falling with his left arm. Being curious had led the boy to not add the non-scented flowers with the rest, so he held it up and observed it… as he did with every flower he found.] … [after giving these indigo-coloured flowers a look, he could just put them by his pillow, they don’t give off any sort of floral smell but it would look.. nice.]
[Keeping his hand on the flowers, he heard a voice calling out to him. That didn't startle him until a second later.] … [He secretly had hoped that it was pointed towards another kid that was somehow nearby. Leaning a little more forward, and looking more interested in the flowers by his chest, Mort stays quiet for a moment. He thinks that they would come over anyway.]
