| Discovery Notes | Weather was clear, it rained the day before. Soil was top soil taken from a garden bed. |
| Naming Notes | The phage was originally going to be named "Naruto" but someone already named a phage Naruto a few months ago and I was sad. After some debate between going with Naruto2 (like Vine 2) or another character name, asking all my friends and putting it to a vote, I decided to go with BillCipher, after my favorite triangle demon from Gravity Falls. Honorable mentions: Kakashi and Bakugou. |
