Mel

"For no reason in particular, do you like cinnamon or butterscotch?"
==Background==
While Prime was having a depressive episode after the events of Reconstructing Science, Mel was mitosised into existence shortly after Prime had finished binge eating a ton of sugar. 
Mel is also the one that plans most trips, activities, and other stuff that families do. She is the one that is in Grape's Bunker the most, since its always a mess and she wants to try to keep it nice and tidy. Because of this she really doesn't leave the clubhouse all that often, and thus isn't really seen by anyone that isn't a Grape.
Since The Grand Opening of Wall-Mart, Mel's vibes have been really off, mostly because of the constant danger that Uno and especially Wall are in at all times. Mel eventually finds out the truth about Uno and goes absolutely ballistic, leading to her blowing up half of One's office. She was then put in the isolation chamber when she went into a coma, and promptly had her essence removed by Experiment 12. 
==Appearance==
Mel has a yellow sweater with a brown stripe through the upper part, along with a pair of jeans. She has a pair of pink sneakers that match her hair. She also has two green buttons on her sweater and a golden flower crown which was made by Uno as a gift. Shel helped preserve this flower crown with science bullshit. Her leaf is very similar to Prime's but its more deliberately heart shaped. 
==Personality==
Mel’s personality is what Prime describes as “The Mom friend”. She is overly protective of the other Grapes, especially Uno. She's essentially the moral compass of the bunch, and tries her best to set a good example for the rest of them. Mel does all that she can to make the other grapes happy, but also knows when they get out of hand. Also when she's pissed she is PISSED.
==Abilities==
A grape's fundamental biology is a weird mix between physical and magical properties because of how Prime was brought to life. They have liquid chlorophyll blood (which is a dark purple color), most of their body is made up of plant cells, and their bones seem to be a wood-like material. They do not have brains but the leaves on the back of their heads serve the same purpose as one. Their skull is akin to a coconut, it has some grape juice inside of it, and the grape's essence. All grapes can regenerate by using photosynthesis, which allows them to not eat if they so pleased as long as they are in direct sunlight.
When a Grape takes too much damage physically, they will collapse into a pile of goo, and will either take a few hours to naturally revive or just skip the process entirely by talking to The Moon Rabbit.
==Essence==
Mel is in the possession of the Essence of Motherhood, which is what allows her to literally never get tired ever, to the point were she doesn't even need to sleep. It also makes her really good at reading peoples true emotions, which makes it extra hard to lie to her. 
However this essence has a second more useful effect, which makes the user more powerful the more danger their friends/family are in. This power comes in the form of sheer unfiltered rage, which sends fear down the spine of even the most powerful of Gods. This rage comes in the form of a powerful energy bubble that surrounds her which breaks the floor she is standing around, generally causes environmental destruction, and causes her to float in the air.
