	"I'd really like to, Data…Data…"
	"Database! Like the structured assemblage of information that can be sorted, modified, and deleted."
	"You seem neat and all, but I need to get to Honest John's. I want to buy up their USB memory sticks."
	"They'll be valuable, vintage collectibles once the aughts nostalgia craze happens."
	"Oh. Okay. I guess I can focus on the hobby I'm famous for."
	"...Is it wheezing?"
	"Bonsai!"
	"Haven't you noticed whenever Bart's skateboarding or you're rejecting Milhouse, I'm in the background, next to a tiny tree? It's impossible to miss."

	"Are you eavesdropping on me right now, my baby Ent?
	...
	"Well, dorks are cool nowadays, so I take your barbs as a compliment."
	...
	"Quiet, Bonnie!"
	"And you better not scream when I prune you."

Bonsai Vivant Pt. 3

Start

Character	Dialogue
	"Oh, you came out nice, Bonnie."
	"Now where can I get an ethnologically accurate pot to place you in?"
	"May I be of service, sad weirdo?"
	"As a Japanese person who does many Japanese-y things, I know much about bonsai."
	"My country created the practice to take our minds off tentacle pornography."
	"Actually, bonsai originated in China, where it is called penjing or penzai."
	"As early as the 6th century, diplomats took samples back to Japan and replanted the art form there."
	"Well, when my ancestors stole the idea, they yelled, “No backsies!” So it's pretty much ours."

End

	"Thank you, Akira. You've really Japanesed up my little tree something proper."
	"That's what I'm here for. Unless... I am not here."
	"As the famous Zen proverb explains: rain cannot make a flower grow nor wind fill a sail, if it has not been purchased from in-app premium content."
