[...she calls back over her shoulder. Which, as it turns out, is a bad idea - the turning motion causes the hem of her pant leg to ride up just a bit, and the petals of an Asphodel flower brush against the strip of skin in the gap between her pants and her boots. Almost immediately, she's struck with an all-too-vivid rush of memories - and All Might is brought along for the ride.
Which is highly unfortunate, because the first thing they see is a short, extremely hairy man. Luckily, he's got his back to them. Unluckily, he's wearing nothing but a speedo with "Dwarf Pride" plastered across the butt. It's an extremely cursed image (so don't click that link unless you're into curses), and the monsters he's standing in front of seem to agree, because when he screams "BOO!" at them, they just run away.
The scene shifts. The same man is in the process of taking off a Hawaiian-print shirt as he stands next to Sadie and a dark-skinned boy a little older than her. They're standing on one side of a board for a board game; a man with glowing white eyes in a suit stands on the other, looking amused. They take a turn; one piece on the board is captured. The man with glowing white eyes works some kind of magic, and the hairy man's form flickers and shifts until it vanishes. Sadie and the boy look horrified.
Then, one more scene - it looks like a nursing home. The man sits in a rocking chair, staring blankly ahead, all but dead to the world.
The memories fade.
Sadie looks like she wants to blow something up, or strangle someone, or cry. Or maybe all three. Her voice comes out strained.]

...were the flowers responsible for that?
