THIS TOOK WAY LONGER THAN I PLANNED. Halfway through writing I accidentally pressed F12 or some similar button and the page refreshed... I've had to write this all twice ;-;

Congrats to those who got Florfaunas- don't forget to name them!

Garden

SarahAnimalLuvr

You wander along a neat gravel path through the Garden, keeping a careful eye out for any Florfauna. Despite your searching, it seems that they've all managed to evade you, and there's no items around either... However, you do find a number of mushrooms growing in the shade of a tree, so you pick them up.

With your 3 Florfaunas following close behind, you stroll down a path leading off from a large fountain, determined to not let your exploration be in vain. While you walk, your pets search the multitude of bushes and plants, until finally pass a large patch of Giant Alliums. At first it all seems normal, but you realise that one allium isn't swaying in the wind like the rest... Your Sundew Florfauna is the first to plunge into the plants and search, with the other two close behind, and after a minute there's a squeaking sound- and an oddly-coloured Florfauna you don't recognise runs out of the allium patch! It seems a little intimidated by the fact it's outnumbered, but it soon realises your pets aren't aggressive, and it cautiously greets them. It greets you too, and after a while it seems content to leave it's garden and follow you home. Congrats!

(Fun fact; the flowers of the allium (or as it's also called, the Ornamental Onion) grow in ball-shaped clusters, and the flower cluster of the giant "Globemaster" Allium can grow to be about the side of a child's head! I'm serious this thing is huge)

Forest

SnazzyLizard

Carefully making your way down a steep slope, you boldly head deep into the woods in your search for a Flofauna. Though you make sure to stay quiet and explore an old unused path to increase your chances, the elusive wild Florfaunas have all hidden away from you. On your way back though, you find a shiny token in the mud that you didn't see before. Oddly, it seems to be an ordinary token, but the images engraved on the sides move as if by magic! Maybe you should take it to the shop?

Lake

Littlestripe

You calmly walk alongside the lake shore, your Flofauna wading through the shallow water not far behind. As you approach a rather tropical-looking area of the lake, you have to slow down to wait for your Florfaunas as it weaves through large numbers of lilypads. Suddenly, it accidentally slips and is submerged, but it landed on a particularly vibrant patch of waterlilies... and out of nowhere another Florfauna surfaces! With a small growl, it quickly pushes your pet back to the shore, then focuses on its garden. You watch carefully, but you get an idea and carefully wade in to help it set all the lilies back in order. The wild Florfauna appears quite aggressive, but it greatly appreciates your help, and afterwards even leaves the water with you. Perhaps this little critter isn't as grumpy as it seems after all...

(This is a Blue Egyptian Waterlily, and this stunning plant was considered sacred in ancient Egypt. It was featured in their religion and can even be seen on multiple carvings and paintings! Today, this plant isn't as common as it was, and can even be considered rare. Additionally, the plant contains a psychoactive ingredient which has a sedative effect- it's even banned in Russia, Poland and Latvia. Treat with care!)

You carefully explore the reeds beside the lake, and while you can't find any Florfauna something glittering catches your eye. It's a tiny pair of earrings! They're too small for you, but maybe you can find a use for them...

Following a neat pathway around the lake, you keep an eye out for any signs of Florfauna. After some time, you spy movement among some flowers and quickly head over... but it's not a Florfauna. It's a tiny hummingbird, and after feeding from some of the flowers it suddenly flits over to investigate you! It doesn't seem scared at all, and even lands on your finger when you offer it. Maybe one of your pet Florfaunas would like a companion?

Savannah:

fireskele

You wander through the tall grass, carefully weaving through the vegetation as you search. As you explore a patch of bushes shaded by some trees, you notice some light coming from behind one. Curious, you go to look... and find a lantern left on the ground. You're not sure who left it there, but there's nobody around so you decide to take it.

+1 Lantern

Catskitten

Deciding to play it safe, you walk alongside a dirt road and keep an eye out for animals- be it Florfauna or something more dangerous. You do find an animal, but it's not what you were hoping for: it's a small mouse, sheltering in some rubbish someone has dumped on the roadside. It seems weak, and eventually you take pity on it and decide to take it home with you.

Keeping your Florfauna close, you find an old path through the savannah and follow it, passing under multiple trees. One in particular intrigues you; the tree itself is dead, but there are multiple clusters of flowers on the branches that are blooming vibrantly. As you approach it, you suddenly realise there's a Florfauna on the highest branch! It was so well camouflaged you could barely see it except for its bright flowers. It seems to be asleep, lying over the branch like a leopard, but after a few seconds it opens an eye and watches you with interest. You coax it gently, your Florfauna also mewling at it, and slowly but surely it hops down from branch to branch until it's level with you. Finally, it readies itself and jumps straight onto you, curling around your neck like a scarf. Success!

(Oh my goodness, a Florfauna with a new background! This is an Leopard Orchid Florfauna, and it's plant takes root on tall trees. It's not a parasitic plant, but instead grows peacefully with little effect on the host. One of it's biggest features is actually the roots, as they grow upwards instead of downwards- this creates a "trash basket" shape which catches leaf litter, bird droppings and other things which it takes nutrients from.)

Yay! now I have one of each type of Florfauna!

I shall call her Lula.
She's so pretty thank you!

I have a question about hunting. Do we post forms on Friday in your time or ours?

Either is fine- as long as it's on or around Friday, it will be accepted. However, I close forms on Saturday morning in my time, so if you're in a timezone that's a few hours behind mine (GMT), I'd advise posting early.

On a similar note, I'm going to start editing the main thread title when hunting's open so people know when to post. Hopefully that way it won't be so confusing for people. ;w;

[2FrostyPaws]

That happened to me before too XD
Good thing was I pressed preview 555 times so I was able to save my life

Alliums are terrifyingly large adorable

HALLELUJAH IT'S ANOTHER FLOOF BALL

Ugh I was late again... I'm so sorry! My internet modem decided "nah not today" and I've been mentally screaming at it the whole afternoon!!! At least I finally made it here. Anyways, lets see who won this lovely litter of waterlilies!

Egg 1

Egg 2

"Orb" owned by Catskitten!
This is Victoria Amazonica, more commonly known as the Giant Amazon Waterlily. The leaves are so huge, small children can use them as boats! Additionally, the flowers only bloom for 2 days, but change from white female flowers to pink male flowers overnight.

Egg 4

"Fern", owned by SarahAnimalLuvr!
Wow! It's so tiny... this miniature Florfauna's plant is Nymphaea Thermarum, an extremely small waterlily that was on the brink of extinction when it's only habitat- a few square metres of damp mud around a small hot spring located in Rwanda, Africa - was destroyed. It's now completely extinct in the wild, and the only specimens are at the Royal Botanical Gardens in London. Treat this with the utmost care, SarahAnimalLuvr- it's the world's rarest waterlily.
