As long as they don't overwhelm the plants you've already got, it should be fine to spread them out. They're called weeds for a reason. Because they're hearty and can survive in most conditions. But that also means they'll choke out the plants you've already got if you're not careful.
Do you have that much of a green thumb that you can just make them get along that easily? I'm jealous. I can only make them grow bigger.

[makes disapproving frowns at him the first time he digs a hole and then forgets to make frowny faces when he starts super focusing on digging little holes to put his weeds into]
Well, gardening is one of those things that requires a lot of love and attention, isn't it? I think that's how you're supposed to do it.
Who has time to do that for fun? My kids are mine, obviously, but my monster kids are being raised with a purpose. The Dodam Monster Mount Rearing Facility is here to raise strong mounts to help hunters clear dungeons faster~! Or whatever our advertisements are saying these days.

You remember the garden box you all got me, right...
Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
Oh! I remember. We were going to work on it together. Should I come over?

Also a lily and a bluebell, for no reason.

Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
Hi! I don't actually know where any of our other gardening tools are, but I brought what I've got.

Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
Is that how you normally garden?
Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
[ Embarrassed ]
I know it sounds silly. But... I like to feel the soil in my hands.
Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
...Still. It'll be a pain to clean all the dirt out from under your fingernails, so don't do it all the time.
[settles in next to the garden box, legs crossed, inspecting what they have to plant]
With the dandelions it should be okay, since they're pretty small.

[ He's gonna do it all the time still
Handing him some lil baby weeds ]
I figured we could disperse 'em among the other plants... y'know, nobody left out.

[ AND AFTERNOON. AND EVENING. ]
I can make sure everyone's playing nice and getting along.

[ Very gently tucking the weeds here-and-there in holes he tunnels with a few fingers. This is how gardening is done, fingernails be damned. ]

Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
I like to think so. They're living things, and don't all living things need love and care?
Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
I'd say yes, but that's also literally my job. It feels like cheating to agree when I get paid to do that.
Re: Day 100-something idk anymore
It's literally your job? I thought you just did it for fun!
