Boris love for flowers extends to ALL kinds of flowers, meaning he also adores the type of flowers people tend to not be wild about.
This encompasses weeds and the like but also… poisonous flowers.
Crazy about them. Not only knows which flowers and plants are poisonous but is also able to tell you, in detail, just how much the poison is going to affect you and just how screwed you’d be if you came in contact with one.
From poison Ivy to Nightshade, he thinks they are all gorgeous and wonderful and cannot understand why people think it’s unnerving when he gushes about them.
Putunia knows everything about what plants can kill you by the time she turns eight because he keeps reading to her from books describing just how they could, like they are bedtime stories.
She thinks it’s the coolest thing ever.
Kamal is worried that her teachers are gonna suspect they let her watch crime shows, just because she will ALSO gleefully tell all of her classmates how poison hemlock killed Socrates while they have recesss.
The closest thing he and Flower Kid came to animosity again was when a goth couple came into the store and asked if they could order a bouquet that was made out of poisonous plants that was still safe enough to be used for a wedding, because Flower is ALSO a massive weirdo and both of them wanted that job so badly.
A coin flip decided in Boris favor and that was the only time they almost wondered if not pushing that man out of the window was worth it just because he was SO insufferably smug about it.
