- The Move-In
You’ve spent the week adjusting to island life by getting to know one another, figuring out what to do with all those presents, gathering your resources and selling them off to Tom Nook. The weekend is finally here, though, and that’s something to celebrate!
...But when you wake up on Saturday, whenever that may be, the environment you’re in is not the tent you remember falling asleep in. Rather, you’re inside of some kind of house with a white wall and ceiling, wood lined across the bottom of the walls. The floor is wood, too, shiny and glossy as the sun rays shine through the one window in your house. Whatever you had lying out in your tents is still arranged in the same general order you had your things in before. Furthermore, you’re still lying on your camping cots with the same people who fell asleep in the tent with you, but if you decide to get up and investigate, you’ll find two other rooms other than the one you’re in.
Facing the door from the inside, if you look to your left, you’ll find...a bathroom! It’s got a basic toilet, sink, and a bathtub with a showerhead for you to use. There are also enough bath towels for each person hanging on a towel rack. The walls are white but the floor in here is tiled instead of wooden. The room across the bathroom, however, is empty. It has the same wallpaper and flooring as the main room you found yourself in.
It’s a small, comfy place you’re staying in, but the real question is… When did this happen? Only one way to find out.
And sure enough, if you’re awake by nine AM, Tom Nook will rally everyone to Resident Services for his morning announcements.
“Good morning, everyone, and welcome to your first weekend on Isle Sonrisa! As you’ve all probably already noticed by now, we were able to upgrade your tents last night into houses! Don’t worry, there is no fee for this upgrade -- but now you finally have a place where you can decorate your house with all the furniture you were able to get in the mail. For any excess items you may have… Might I suggest a yard sard of some sort, hm?”
He tilts his head a little. He thinks this is a good idea!
“Alternatively, houses all come with storage. There’s a small little storage shed in the back of everyone’s houses that can fit many, many items. If you don’t want to sell your items to me or hand them off to someone else, you can store them inside of there.”
Tom Nook nods his head. “Yes, yes. I’d like to suggest that you all take this weekend to decide how to arrange the items you’ve gotten in the mail...and one more thing about those items: You can put them outside, too. For example, oh, an exercise area might be nice…” He sounds a little wistful when he says it, but promptly shakes his head afterwards.
“Ah-! Before I forget...erm… It seems as though one of our friends has unexpectedly left the island. We don’t know where or how he left, you see...but Heimdall is no longer here. We’re still working on figuring out a way to send you all home, and we’re trying to track him down, too.”
He looks very guilty about that, at least. But the moment passes, and he perks up again, smiling at everyone as best as he can. “Alright, that’s it! You can spend the weekend however you’d like to, but with your new homes being built and all the furniture some of you have received, well… It may be a good idea to work on that, no?”
(OOC: Welcome to your first event log! Any questions can be directed to the FAQ. We will no longer be posting log questions and will be funneling them to the FAQ instead for easier access.
Let us know if you have any questions, as always! NPCing will be available after ~3:30PM EST today.)

Right? I'm so glad I was able to get the coffee beans. Getting a grinder and an espresso machine with nothing to use it with was painful.
no subject
Did you make your own coffee a lot back home?
no subject
no subject
[ How is everyone here so cool!! ]
I can't wait to try your coffee! I bet it's great, even if you aren't meant to be a barista.
no subject
Would you like a cup, then?
no subject
[ But it feels wrong just taking some coffee... ]
How should I pay you? I don't have much, but I could at least do something in return.
no subject
No payment needed. I'm still testing things out, and honestly, I'm just happy to help out.
no subject
Next time, I will definitely have something for you!
no subject
[It isn't long before said cup is ready, and he hands it over to her.]
Milk and sugar are on the stall, if you want to put some in.
no subject
[ She takes the cup, looking over at the milk and sugar. ]
I wonder how much I should put in... I don't really drink coffee.
no subject
[He's seen people who pretty much drink sugar with coffee rather than coffee with sugar but hey, if it makes them happy, he's not gonna get uppity about it.]
no subject
Good idea! [ So she'll do just that, adding a little bit of milk and some sugar, before taking a sip. ]
It's really good! I'm not really a coffee drinker, but I can still tell it's good.
no subject
Glad to hear it. If I find even more ingredients, maybe I can whip you up some coffee-based drinks even more to your liking. We didn't do anything fancy at Leblanc, but honestly, experimentation is a great part of learning.

[ She pauses. ]
I guess we'll need to actually see if we have matcha first though.

[Note to self, pester Tom Nook again.]
