I… i have this headcannon where Argos got mr plant a prosthetic leaf/petal because the kid cut it off…
my logic is, flowers’ petals and leaves don’t just regenerate when they get cut, most of them dry out and fall off.
And if the imitation flower theory is correct/become cannon then that the petals would be somewhat like a body part being chopped off.
I know some people think that the petals could be like his hair and that should regrow, but mr plant’s.. not human at least. I feel like it would need to replaced or have a prosthetic put in it’s place that would act basically the same as the previous body part would.
I like to think that it was pretty expensive given to how expensive medication is in the void and that Argos just got mr plant something that would act like a leaf. But he doesn’t know the other 50% of what mr plant is so he wouldn’t know he needed to get him a specific kind of prosthetic (i am a imitation flower theory believer, yes) so the prosthetic is kind of useless to mr plant (it only absorbs sunlight and oxygen), but he appreciates the gift anyways (he never takes it off).
Thank you for coming to my TED talk 😊☺️
With and without stitches because i can’t choose if they’re visible or not.
