Week 4


WEEK 4 LOG
Weather: Monday AM & PM - Clear Skies; Tuesday - Thursday AM Cloudy, PM Rainy; Friday - Clear Skies


    The Meteor Shower

    On Monday, there are, in your mailboxes, passports for those who happened to not pick them up when the airport opened. Hold onto these--they’re important, after all! Open them up, and you’ll find not only a title, your name, and your hometown, but you’ll also find…

    A blank page? That’s right. There’s a page in the back of the admittedly small passport with only one thing on it: a space that looks like it has room for a star stamp. Huh. That’s strange, isn’t it? There are no hints as to what it could be about, but maybe the announcement will shed some light.

    There’s also, like last week, a familiar face around the island… it’s Audie! Come around to her house to say hi--she’s very excited to be here, and very fashionably dressed as she strolls around the island.

    And like clockwork, at nine AM, Tom Nook makes his announcement once more:

    “Good morning, Isla Sonrisa! A few things this morning. Please give a warm welcome to our new neighbor, Audie!”

    Audie smiles and waves at you all with both paws--she’s pretty flattered at the warm response. Tom Nook continues--

    “We have for you the ability to build bridges now! Yes, yes, these will prove very useful indeed. Of course, you will most likely have to work together to figure out the best places to put these bridges, as we have only a limited number… But I am sure working together will be little trouble for you all! The only thing to note is that each bridge will come with a construction fee of 15,000 bells each. Consider working together to get some bridges up and running...?”

    He pauses, and the next part comes with some measure of almost… not quite dismay, but there’s a certain cloud over the tanuki: “It also seems Iori and Mira have also left the island… Again, we’re looking into it, and should any discoveries come to light, I will tell you immediately.”

    He nods to himself, and continues on--

    “Next, I’d like to tell you all we have a very special event tonight… a meteor shower! Yes, yes, starting at 7 PM, we will have clear skies and many stars to wish upon. Who knows--maybe your wishes will all come true!” He says that with a bright smile, almost like he really believes it… Or maybe that’s just his quiet optimism? Anyway, he continues--

    “Finally, I’d like to thank you all for your hard work in making items for our new friends! Yes, yes, you all have been working so hard to create furniture and items for our housing plots, but this week, I invite you all to put your best DIY skills to the test! There are no specific style requirements in mind, but please make sure our potential new friend has:

    1 Table
    2 Dressers
    1 Clock
    2 Chairs

    Of course, if you’d like to make more, I am sure our friend will not be opposed…” He pauses, and seems to remember something! “Ah, yes, we are very close to opening our museum… I am sure Blathers would appreciate any bugs, fish, or fossils regardless! Hmm… Yes, that is all I have for you! Thank you once more for your hard work, and have a wonderful day!”




    Possible Objectives

    1. Help Tom Nook prepare a housing plot for the last villager house.
    2. Donate more specimens to Blathers.
    3. Attend the meteor shower, if you so desire. There may be some secrets waiting for you...
    4. Make a money pool for some bridges.



    Turn-Ins
    Monday / Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday / Friday

sugooooooooi: Applause. (yaaaaaaaaay)

Thanks! I don't know what pools are supposed to really look like, but it was lots of fun! I hope everyone likes it.

Usually they have concrete and stuff everywhere, but I think this one looks better. The plants make it feel more relaxing.
sugooooooooi: Leaning sideways with a smile. (put it this way)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-24 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? Thank you! I want to help everyone on the island and give them things that'll make them all happy. Audie-san told me she wanted a runway. How do we build one of those?

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-24 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
If you ever want help, I'd love to help you build things.

[ She thinks about that for a moment. ]

I have no idea... I haven't come across anything that would look like one. We can probably just come up with our own though.
sugooooooooi: Applause. (yaaaaaaaaay)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-24 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay! What do you think it's supposed to look like?
spiritoso: (04)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-24 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's usually higher up so you can see what people are wearing better and all the attention goes on them! But I don't know if we can do that...

I know at the fashion show, they rolled out a carpet. Maybe it we do the same thing but decorate it enough, we can get the same feeling!
sugooooooooi: Excited, victorious. (mcdonald's mcdonald's mcdonald's)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-24 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay! I have a bunch of different floors I'm not using. What kind do you think we need?
spiritoso: (33)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-25 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
I think we could make anything work! Some kind of carpet or brick or even wood would be fine, I think.
sugooooooooi: Mild surprise. (idk what)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-25 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Where do you think we should put it?
spiritoso: (16)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-25 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe an area with lots of room? That way if we do a fashion show, we have space for chairs and refreshments if we want to have those out.
sugooooooooi: Simple smile. (ehe)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-25 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
That's true! Maybe past where the bridges are going to go.
spiritoso: (07)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-25 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
[ She nods. ]

That's a great idea! We'll have plenty of room there. Maybe we can put other things around it too.
sugooooooooi: Excited, victorious. (mcdonald's mcdonald's mcdonald's)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-25 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
Is there anything you want us to build?
spiritoso: pixiv id: 3891454 (91)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-25 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Sylvando is already building a theater...

[ That would be first on her list, so she thinks about it. ]

I think a flower garden would be nice. I know there are smaller ones around here like the one next to my house, but I'd like a big one where we can sit and enjoy them.
sugooooooooi: Smiling with head tilted in the bus. (this is fun)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-25 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
That's great! Maybe we can get more kinds of flowers, then.
spiritoso: (72)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-25 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
I hope so! Tulips are nice, but I would love to plant some roses.
sugooooooooi: Talking about something she's looking warily at. (hard out here when you can't read)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-25 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Do you think the next person who moves here might have some?
spiritoso: (33)

[personal profile] spiritoso 2020-07-25 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
It'll be worth asking! If not, maybe they'll have some ideas on other things we can build.
