Chloe has some new experiences.

You exit the ship, walking down the landing ramp with Chloe's hand in yours. You reach the edge of the ramp and step onto real earth for the first time in awhile (since you don't count the scrap metal land of the Junk Moon to be real earth), savoring the feel of it and of the scent of fresh air. You start to move on to follow Kate to her cabin, but you find yourself held back by a suddenly immobile Chloe.

You look over you shoulder at the little Chlorophyte and see her standing at the edge of the landing ramp with her eyes wide and her mouth hanging open. She looks around at her surroundings with something akin to shocked curiosity, studying everything from the green grass of the ground to the trees in the distance to the clouds up in the sky. It is almost as though this is the first time she's seeing all these things, from the way she's looking around...and then you realize that is exactly the case.

Chloe had been nothing but a sentient flower being grown in some secret warehouse somewhere, from what you could tell of her description of stagnant air where she was being kept. She hadn't even had eyes to see things until you'd triggered her transformation into her current form so she literally was seeing all of these things for the first time. She might have the knowledge of them implanted in her mind, but just knowing about things and actually seeing those things are very different.

As such, you let go of Chloe's hand and turn to smile at her, gesturing to your surroundings with a wave of your arm. "Welcome to the outside world, Chloe. I know you probably got stuff 'bout all this in your head, but it's different when you're experiencin' it yourself, ain't it?", you tell her and she nods slowly as she continues to stare at everything.

You hear a soft chuckle behind you and see that Kate has come back to see what the hold up was and, seeing Chloe's reaction to things, could guess what was going on. "Sheltered life?", she asks you about Chloe.

"Well, she was a flower before this so, yeah, pretty much.", you reply with a grin and then turn back towards Chloe.

The Chlorophyte, by this time, has decided to venture a step out onto the ground, a dainty foot slowly lifted from the metal of your landing ramp and then slowly placed upon the grassy ground. And, as soon as her bare foot touches the ground, her eyes light up and she smiles brightly as she flexes her toes in the dirt and the grass.

"It's grass! Grass, Master! It's a plant like me!", she says excitedly and is suddenly down on all fours on the ground, looking closely at the grass and running her fingers through it, "Oh, but they can't talk or anything. I know that. But grass is pretty. And it tickles my nose too."

She giggles at that last and without warning, she is suddenly up and skipping through the grass. Then she's running like a little kid and, much like a little kid, she ends up stripping off the baggy clothing that had been **** upon her until she's as naked as she had been the first time you'd seen her in her humanoid form. She giggles happily as she rolls in the grass, apparently tickled pink (or a lighter shade of green, in her case) by the feeling of it against her skin.

You and Kate just watch her, both of you looking to each other and chuckling.

"She's kind of fuckin' adorable, ain't she? I can see why you're kinda sweet on her.", Kate says to you and you shrug.

"Eh, well, I'm sweet on a lot of women, yourself included, darlin'. But Chloe...she ain't got nobody and don't know nothin'. Guess I feel sorta responsible for her now, since I'm the one who woke her up and all, right?", you say and frown, "Which is another reason for me not to be found by whoever it was that wanted her. Cuz, let's be honest, I'm a horny bastard, but I'm still a pretty nice guy. But the sorta guy who's gettin' girls genetically engineered to want to fuck him and feed on his cum and payin' for it, well, that probably ain't such a good guy. I'm guessin' Chloe wouldn't be able to be doin' much laughin' if she was with that guy."

"So I take it you might want me to reach out to some of my contacts and find out who it is exactly that wanted a plant girl made to order?", Kate says as she looks at you sideways, arching her brow.

"You can see right through me sometimes, can'tcha, babe?", you remark to her with a sheepish chuckle, "Yeah. I ain't ashamed to say you're better connected than I am and got a way of gettin' info I don't. So, yeah, callin' you wasn't just 'bout findin' a safe place to hide and maybe havin' a rough fuck or two...though, I ain't gonna lie, that was a big part of it.*

She jabs you in the side with her elbow and shakes her head. "You really are a horny bastard. You're lucky I like that.", she says as she smacks you on the ass and then turns to head towards her cabin, "Fine. I'll make some calls later on. For now, though, maybe you should rein in your excitable nudist over there before she's more green than she started out."

This, of course, refers to the fact that Chloe has been rolling in the grass naked this whole time that you two have been talking and you laugh before giving a sharp whistle towards Chloe. "C'mon, Chloe! That's enough communin' with nature. Let's get inside, yeah?", you tell her and she is quick to jump up to her feet and skip over to you, leaping up and into your arms without warning, still giggling happily.

"Yes, Masteeeer~!", she sings out as she wraps her arms around your neck and her legs around your waist to hold herself against you, "Mmm. Chloe feels really good now! Grass feels really good, Master! You should roll around with me later, okay?"

"Sweetheart, if you're gonna be naked when we do it, I'll roll in whatever ya want.", you tell her, giving her a pat on the ass before wrapping your arms around her and carrying her over to Kate's cabin.
