Week 3 Log
Weather: Sunny and warm AM, cool PM until Friday. Friday - cloudy AM, rainy PM
- Another Week Goes By
Monday morning comes along. It’s a quiet morning, which is much-needed after such a long island adventure. To anyone walking around the island, you’ll notice two things:
The airport is open, but the seaplane is gone.
Also, there’s a familiar face jogging around the perimeter of the housing portion of the island. That familiar face happens to be none other than the ninja rabbit himself, Snake! Looks like he’s already spending his first day on the island getting in shape!
When Tom Nook calls you all over for morning announcements, he looks pleased with himself. Even Snake comes over to join those who gather to listen to the tanuki. “Good morning, everyone! Let’s all give a warm welcome to our new friend, Snake!”
Cue applause. … Hopefully there is some applause, anyway. Snake grins and just looks very happy to be here.
“Next, I’m pleased to announce that the postal service is now open, since Orville is here to manage mail! You’re able to send individual messages to your fellow residents with gifts attached if you'd like, all handwritten if you’d like, yes. Alternatively, you can redeem what are called Nook Miles for items now -- they’re essentially a rewards system, and you can track your rewards on the Nook Miles app on your phone.”
“Essentially, the app will automatically award you for every contribution you add to the island, whether it be decorating your house, harvesting fruit, pulling weeds -- you name it! You can then turn in those Nook Miles at the airport, and that’s how we’ll be delivering items to you in the mail from now on.”
That’ll have the mail system make more sense, at least! Now it’s all on you if you decide to end up with 40 items in the mail all at once.
“The last announcement I have to make is that we’re going to make a second housing plot! The first one was a success, what with Snake moving in, and I’m grateful for Wilbur and Orville’s efforts in helping us build our island. So...with that, I need the following items for the next house:
1 Ironwood Table
2 Ironwood Dressers
1 Ironwood Clock
2 Ironwood Chairs
And just like last week, if nobody on the island has the DIY for these, I will send over the DIYs to your apps.”
He pauses, and then he looks a little...sheepish at this next announcement. “Now, I’m aware that some of you have been building bridges — and now that you all have vaulting poles and ladders, there are untouched parts of the island for you to explore. I’d like to ask you all to consider creating areas outside, such as an exercise area, perhaps even a park of sorts — though we will have someone coming in soon who may need some space.
Finally, this is just a request -- if you have any fossils, bugs, or fish, do turn them in to Blathers! He's very close to hitting his goal before we can open up a museum, so keep that in mind.”
He raises his hand, as if to end the morning announcements. “That’s all for today!”
Possible Objectives
1. Help Tom Nook prepare a housing plot for the second villager house!
2. Get Nook Miles to redeem items at the post office at the airport.
3. Help Blathers by catching and donating specimens.
4. Decorate and explore the untouched part of the island (see locations page; it’s the left hand area)
NOTE: Nook Miles are not a new mechanic and are simply an IC way to justify the rewards system, now! You don't need to keep track of points; just assume the threads you turn in are characters redeeming points for items.
(OOC: Welcome to Week 3! Please direct all questions to the FAQ under the Week 3 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!)

otherwise, he can be found digging up a fossil. in fact, he gets a t rex skull, and unfortunately...his pockets are full. so. catch a small awoo lugging a giant skull towards blathers' tent.
he can also be found planting some bamboo shoots on the untouched area of the island. he's vaulted over, and there's space over there; why not let some trees grow? he has a few to plant, so he'd appreciate any help. ]
bamboo
[Because it must be a lot of work doing all of that alone, after all.]
no subject
[ he pulls out five bamboo shoots from his pockets and puts them on the grass. ]
Here. I have a few more to do myself.
no subject
Do you have a preference where to have these planted, by the way? I don't wanna just put these all willy nilly in random spots!
no subject
He's not mad about the adjustments. He's just so tickled by the fact that Hitsugaya cares way more than he lets on.
As Hitsugaya's straightening out the pillows on their sofa, he'll find he's not alone.]
I'm sorry, Hitsu! I had a few things on the sofa earlier. Did I accidentally get the pillows all out of sorts?
no subject
...A little, but I fixed it up.
[ he looks away as he says it, too. he's set his fancy violin in the corner of the room; it adds a nice touch. ]
Don't get the wrong idea, I'm just trying to tidy up the place. Nothing more, nothing less.
no subject
He just makes this noise and rushes over to look at it.]
You decorated, too?! Oh Hitsu, it looks lovely!
[RIP to Hitsugaya thinking he can ever go back from this.]
no subject
[ nope. it definitely is decorating, hitsu. ]
I'm just placing a violin down where it belongs. It's not that complicated.
no subject
[It's definitely decorating and he's not accepting any excuses to the contrary.]
Do you happen to play, Hitsu?
bamboo
How many are you planting?
no subject
[ which is...a considerable amount?! ]
Why do you ask?
no subject
If you give me half, I can plant them.
[ Efficient work. ]
no subject
It might be too much for this area, but I figured that the more stock we have the better.
no subject
We can always relocate some of them to the north side of the island behind resident services if it gets out of hand.
[ Cause fourteen is a lot. ]
Bamboo shoots are a good ingredient.
[ The pro? ]
diggy diggy skuill
[Zeke scrambles up, dropping into what looks like a ridiculous kung-fu pose.]
Skull monster, you've met your match. I'll -- hold on, is there someone in there?
no subject
Yes. What do you want?
no subject
no subject
[ he wipes some sweat off of his forehead as he starts to move some of the dirt off of the skull, revealing more bits of it. ]
It's eerie in a way.
