>>26595862Sorry for the delay, I had to make dinner for myself. Naturally born plant people, like Saplings, aren't second class citizens. They're as good as a Rosebuta in a Rosebuta's book. Equals.
It's just that those who become plants are seen as not as good, since they weren't born as an authentic plant. Not everyone sees them as lesser, but it's a relatively common thought process. A bit more debated is the topic of whether or not a plant person born from a person turned plant would qualify as a natural born or not. You'll get a lot of divisive opinions on that one.
Also the coma pods would be fine. The ones used by Rosebutas are specially treated, but a wild variant does exist above ground in /rose/. These ones don't turn you to plants, they just eat you.
