Look at the way this fruit is glowing
And filled with glowing seed
It took me a while to figure out what kind of fruit they eat
It's a lotus
It controls your mind
And never lets you leave

Intro
Good day Epic amino! Today I bring you another art blog. This one is an entry for the #SpringArtChallenge! Go participate, there's still some time left :eyes:
I chose the prompt "springtime blossoms"! I love my boy Polites, and was obsessed with the concept of the lotus flowers when it was first introduced, so I decided to create something around this theme!

The plan
Let me spin you my tale of springtime:
My boyfriend and I were minding our own business, when we found some suspicious looking beans...

You have to agree, these beans look far from normal! So I thought, could it mayhaps be a seed of a lotus plant? My boyfriend was sceptical, but agreed to run a little experiment. We are after all students of science :relieved: . We placed the bean in a brown box. I called up Polites and asked him what the best course of actions was. He told me that the beans don't need a lot to survive. Just darkness, and maybe some earth. My partner set up a night vision camera and we went to bed...

The footage
I woke up at night to get some water, when I got panicky. What if the plant needed earth after all? So in the footage you will see the lights turn on for a second, woops
Was this also what Polites saw? If so totally understand wanting to eat it :joy:

Outro
Isn't this the most beautiful plant you've ever seen? We're gonna water it and try to keep it alive as long as possible. This was the perfect flowery start to a beautiful spring! Only one question remains... What if you eat the fruit inside?
