    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.)

Any problems if we do some remodeling?

[Zeke has an axe. Is this a bad sign?]

...I'm sorry, did you say "yard sard"?

[Like a man possessed, Zeke is in a frenzy of work today.]

[He has an axe, and he's chopping down trees -- less in a methodical and effective way, and more by spinning the axe overhead dramatically, then catching it and hacking into the tree in a mighty single blow.]

[Also, he's furiously collecting apples -- and if you have some, he'll even attempt to buy them off of you!]

It won't be a royal palace, but we'll be living in style for sure!

Is there any way to get my hands on coffee beans here? I'm happy to barter with all the...stuff I have.

[Junk. Most of it is junk. Well, to him, anyway. Yard sard sounds like a good idea.]

i. Saturday

[ People are going missing... The skeleton was a warning after all. Said skeleton is standing in front of a garden by house #5, with whatever Minato has to bring to the yard sard:

Items: swimsuit, Straw Pochette, Surfboard, Record Box, Black Two-toned Tile Wall, Blue Umbrella, Golf Bag
DIY recipes: Log Bench, Brick Oven, Cardboard Bed, Plain Sink, Hay Bed, Ringtoss, Log Pack, Ironwood Kitchenette

Trades/purchases can be threaded or handwaved in the comments! Minato sits on the ground with an ocarina at his lips slowly and quietly working out the tune to Poem for Everyone's Souls. It's a WIP. ]


ii. Sunday
[ This might as well happen now. After the hustle and bustle of the sale wears him out, Minato spends the weekend out by the seaplane- very notably not looking at the airport- tucking the rope previously binding it to the pier away and just sitting on the plane's wing while it slowly, slowly, drifts away from shore.

See ya later. ]

[Sonico is a bit surprised when she wakes up, but because she woke up late, she went and took a bath! She dresses in the bathroom. She brushes her hair with her hands after getting dressed with her clean clothes and takes all the dirty ones to get them washed.

When she goes to the tent area, she sees a bird on the notice board. Sonico checks it out and finds out that the houses were mister Nook’s gift, storage is around the house (she kinda left everything next to her sleeping bag oops) and that someone left.

She’s in a really good mood today! So she’s going to go around with a flower on her head, and collecting weeds again, and will even go to the shore and fish for a while.

After that she’ll get her shovel and break a rock, surprised to see things pop out of it.

Lastly, Sonico will be trying to set up her synthesiser next to her house, trying to figure out how it works and seeing if she can make a good melody.

It’s a very relaxed but very fun day!]
pr159: (i'm still breathing)

apples

[personal profile] pr159 2020-07-04 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ God, given that he's from a JRPG full of monsters he's never been that alarmed by the appearance of this weird bird, but interacting with it is. An experience.

Anyway, gathering apples has been one of his go-to chores around here since it's easy and he just likes maintaining a stash of emergency rations, so yeah, he's got some. ]


...120 bells a piece. Convenience fee, you know.

Oh! That’s a record box?

[she doesn’t have anything to play the records with but...]

Mind if I have it? I have wall decorations you could have in exchange!

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Minato also doesn't have anything to play the records with, which is sad because the music withdrawal is real. If only this were rl Animal Crossing with background music every second of the day. ]

Sure, go ahead. What sort of decorations do you have?

Saturday

[ For people who live in House 8, you'll have log beds of your own, courtesy of Laurent. He also put a shower set in the bathroom so that you can freely move the showerhead around.

After the morning announcement, Laurent decides it's a nice time to relax after moving the furniture around to organize and is playing the piano in his room. The window's open for anyone to listen in. He might take requests.
]


Sunday

[ Laurent is in front of his house, offering to make things that he has a DIY for as long as you provide the ingredients. He's also trying to trying to see if anyone is interested in semi-opaque tights and the letter jacket. He has a DIY recipe for mini DIY workbench (that he's sitting near already), log bed, apple rug, and apple chair.

And depending on who you are, he might charge a fee in addition to the ingredients.

I have a shanty wall wallpaper and a chocolate wallpaper!

[It does look like chocolate.]

ii............

[personal profile] conceptualize 2020-07-04 07:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[ After Laurent spent the time doing DIYs and such, he decided to take a break by the beach and there is Minato, sitting on the plane wing and slowly drifting away.

For a second, he can't believe what he's seeing, but... there have been weirder things? Maybe. Minato really wanted to go on the plane, huh. Laurent runs on the pier and jumps to land on the plane's other wing, which was somehow closer. He really needs to exercise.
]

What are you doing??

[ He rarely raises his voice, so he just sounds incredulous right now and very out of breath. ]

[Well. While there have been a few instances in Sylvando's life where he has woken up in an unfamiliar place-one being last weekend-he can definitely say that he's never had his living space transform overnight. Before the group is gathered up for the morning announcement, he's flitting around house 10, making a ruckus for poor Hitsugaya.

...he'll even personally wake Hitsugaya up. I am so sorry Hitsugaya.]


Hitsu, darling! Wake up! You must see this! [...] Oh, but where is Heimdall...?

[The house was certainly a surprise, but at least a more pleasant one awaits at the announcement. Sylvando can't contain his enthusiasm over the island name decision.]

I'm so overjoyed that you all liked my suggestion so much! It sounds even better when said officially!

Let's do our best to make sure Isla Sonrisa is the happiest place to stay!

[Still...having a house now makes this whole situation feel a little more...grounded, doesn't it. Like they really might be here a while. And the situation with Heimdall is weird, too. While Sylvando plans to keep it all in mind, he tries not to let it get to him too much today. After all, he has a house to decorate!

He's a bit lacking in decorations though, so he'll attend the yard sard in search of some functional furniture and decor.

While he's not focusing on house 10, he'll be poking around other houses to see if anyone needs help moving furniture and whatnot.]

[ How unfortunate that the two beds Dokja knows how to make is hay bed and cardboard bed..... Sighs, but hey, he knows someone that can make something even better. ]

Hello Laurent. [ He's been going around, checking to see what people had to offer but he's come here with an objective in mind. Though he has something else in mind that he's fighting hard not to think about. Because it doesn't bother him? Yeah. ] Mind if I bother you to make some log beds?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Does it taste like chocolate?

[ Consider his curiosity piqued, and the wallpaper to go in his mouth for a nibble the moment he gets his hands on it. ]

Thanks, chum! I appreciate it! I know some people have been giving you a rough time, but I appreciate the help you're giving us!

Does it?

[She had been a bit too weirded out by it to try it.]

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[ The plane leans and corrects itself, bobbing up and down until it matches that of the ocean again and Minato does not move from his seat on the wing, lest he slips and falls. ]

What...? Nothing. Sitting.

[ He holds his hands up- defensively, but more so Laurent will stay on that other wing and not unbalance the plane too much. ]

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Only one way to know, right? Let's try it.
toushiro: (really?)

[personal profile] toushiro 2020-07-04 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ hitsugaya grumbles and turns in his cot a little when he hears sylvando's voice. what really gets him to wake up is when he hears hitsu, darling and he sits up groggily, grumbling. ]

Don't call me that.

[ though at the mention of heimdall... ]

Did he go outside -- and where are we?

[ why is everything so much more homey?! ]
