Week 2
Weather: Cloudy Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday AM and rainy PM; clear skies Thursday and Friday AM, slightly cloudy PM
- Arrival
A full week has come and gone, and you may be left with more questions than answers. There’s no word on the progress of figuring out how to get all of you home just yet -- you only have the land, an abandoned sea plane, your new homes and a garden to get you through this upcoming week.
...So far, that is.
Come Monday at nine AM though, Tom Nook does his morning announcements once more. Seems like he has something new for you to work with:
“Good morning, Isle Sonrisa! Great news -- we now have a grocery store up and running for everyone! The grocery store is located right about House #5, and it has a wide selection of foods and ingredients for you to choose from. While we’re still mailing kitchen equipment over to all of you, food shouldn’t be a problem any longer. The grocery store will be run by my apprentices…Timmy and Tommy!
We also have tulips in stock, now! Red, white, and yellow are our only colors, but I've heard that sometimes watering them next to one another may give you new colors. Perhaps you can try that out yourselves, yes?”
He’s very happy about this announcement. He knows how much you all wanted your food, after all! Time to continue with the announcements, though:
“The only other thing I have for you this morning is very, very important. I know there are many of you here on the island already, but assuming that most of you will be going back home, we need to get more permanent residents on the island. Yes, yes. Permanent residents from this world who may be interested in experiencing life on an island!
What I’m asking all of you to do is to prepare housing plots for our new residents. I’ve already designated areas on the island for them, and as such, your Nook Phones now have a map app so you can see where the new land plots will be. Yes, yes. Now, to prepare the first housing plot… I need the following:
1 Log Dining Table
1 Log Extra-long Sofa
1 Log Decorative Shelves
1 Log Wall-mounted Clock
If none of you have a DIY for any item in particular, I’ll go ahead and send the DIY recipe for it to your phones. It will show up in all of your DIY apps.”
He smiles at everyone with his trademark tanuki grin.
“And that’s about all I have for you today! Good luck, everyone!”
Possible Objectives
1. Help Tom Nook prepare a housing plot for a potential new resident!
2. Stock up on food and cook for yourselves and your fellow residents.
3. More to come this week...
NOTE: The map app will have a picture map that correlates to the one on the Locations page. There will be a list of resident names when you click on the tents. The map on the locations page will be updated OOCly later on Monday night.
(OOC: Welcome to Week 2! A reminder that Mod Coco who plays Tom Nook has work and will not be able to NPC throughout the week. Please direct all questions to the FAQ under the Week 2 top level.
Here's this week's Weekly Plotting Post for you all to use!
As always, if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to let us know! Have fun!)

It seems like they only know what the other is thinking when it comes to life-or-death galaxy brain situations. ]
Take off your shirt.
no subject
Before he blinks a few times, then a bit of a hysteric laugh leaves him. ] Huh? What? Why?
[ It's obvious why-- ] You don't have to force yourself to do any of this, you know. I can just.. [ He's sitting up properly, even moving to turn but a dizzy spell hits him and he braces himself with a hand on the bed. Ugh, his vision is still spinning. ] --I can do it myself?
no subject
If you don't take off your shirt, I'll do it for you, Kim Dokja.
no subject
[ For the love of.. Dokja can feel himself sweating, but for another reason now. It takes only a moment to struggle with it, but he manages to shrug it off on his own as the fabric ruffles his hair up and ears flicker wildly.
He's not entirely plain despite how he was at the beginning. It's nothing impressive, but he does have a few scars littered across his body from various fights. More notable is those and the burns from the probability storm he weathered after Gigantomachia. It's sometimes strange to look at himself after everything.
He cautiously looks at Joonghyuk, ears pressing back with his tail noisily thumping against the bed. ]
no subject
He places a hand on his companion's shoulder and gently guides him to lean forward. Placing the warm towel on his back, he starts wiping off all that sweat. See how pleasant this is? ]
no subject
Distracting him enough that as soon as the towel presses onto skin he emits a surprised sound. It does shift into a soft sigh, because it.. does feel pleasant. Of course, at the same time, it's very strange. Because Yoo Joonghyuk is wiping down the sweat from his body. It's like some weird twisted feverish dream?
Han Sooyoung would likely comment on how they're behaving too much like an old couple. His face burns more and he chooses to bury his face into his what feels to be cold sheets. Maybe it would've been better if he was just drenched in cold water. His tail stills during the process with the occasional twitch, head tilting and he eyes his companion again. Before he realizes it, the words are leaving him. ]
Why are you doing this? [ Why is he.. taking such good care of him? ]
no subject
You would start smelling.
[ What? He isn't sure what Dokja is asking since he thinks this is normal... Sure, he doesn't always seem to be the type to care for his comrades, but he is.. However, he treats his younger sister better than everyone else. Dokja, unfortunately, is very unwelll from his assessment.
As he leaves him to that, he goes to fetch a new pair of clothes for the other man to wear. ]
When you're done, change clothes. [ Don't wear dirty clothes!! ] You can leave the towel on the stool.
no subject
Finish wiping himself down, change into clothes as he says.. then maybe he should go back to sleep. His thoughts are befuddled and he's only more confused. ..Smelling. He did it because otherwise he would start smelling. Who does that? Who says that? Yoo Joonghyuk... who are you?? ]
..Right. [ A look of uncertainty, but he buries his face a little into the warm towel after. It feels good. ] I'll finish the rest myself then, don't let me hold you back from whatever you had plans for today.
no subject
But Dokja is right. He should go on with his plans. ]
If I see you outside, I will kill you.
[ Understood? ]
