( no video this time... or audio, but you can practically hear the grumble and whine of her complaints anyway if you've met her even the once. )

It would be in everyone's best interest, given our circumstances. However, you have a point. While there was some talk of such plans, it's unclear how much progress has been made.

i'm just sayin
if someone i didn't know told me i suddenly had to cut back on stuff i'd be a lil iffy on the idea.. how do i know for sure people aren't just taking it for themselves?

( not everyone is quite so understanding or altruistic, is what she's trying to say. not to virtual strangers. the general distrust is still pretty high from what she's noticed? plus, who's going to ration all of that out? )

do you know who were all talking about it?

[ Fearne isn't wrong. For all that the people collected here seem remarkably different from the typical situation in the City back home, on the whole, there are still clashes from time to time. There is certainly distrust — the recent incident involving Daan's book, for instance.

It's troubling, considering what they've learned of the experiments being conducted and the fate of past iterations. ]

I am simply suggesting raising awareness of the problems that we may face, at this rate.

Most recently, a woman named Aerith mentioned her gardening efforts. "Hat Guy" has also expressed his concerns. Finally, a number of residents discussed the topic several months ago.

[ Yesod includes these network posts here, although with Aerith and others gone by now, they will be incomplete. ]

( that's so much to go through.. and she still has that bible...... please stop making her read.......... maybe she'll put it off for now. if she can crack how this ritual circle is meant to be drawn, channeled and used, then surely the resource drain won't matter? it's more that this one has directly inconvenienced Her is why she even noticed. it's not like she spends her days tracking inventory.

but rationing all that food.. they'd have to gather all of it between all the stores to take proper stock, then devise a reasonable means of splitting it between the dozens they have here. it'll only get harder the larger the city limit gets, and she's not about to volunteer to spearhead an effort like that.

would lend a hand if asked, but organization? her? )

i wonder how her garden's looking? maybe i'll go take a peek. i do have a soft spot for them..

oh but hey! i do know hat guy! i was his secret santa!!
i wonder if he liked my gift

You have awful taste in gifts, woman.

[ That wasn't the actual reason he interjected in this text thread, but there was an opportunity, and he's going to take it. Anyway: ]

Aerith's not on the contact list anymore, so she's gone. I've been working with Robby to get a garden started. But I won't say it's something I have expertise in.

[ In other words, he's just trying to power through this through sheer will and effort. He does not want everyone to be caught unawares if, or when they inevitably stop restocking food. ]

my name is fearne, thank you very much.

( but anywaaaaaaayyy. )

it's not? hmm.. can i come by and see? where did you guys end up putting it? have you been setting all this up in the cold and rain?

We're planning on setting up in one of the empty office buildings. It'll be protected from the elements, but it will mean they'll need artificial lights and heating to thrive. Want to help us pick out a spot?

inside, huh
normally i'd be a bit iffy but seeing what kaveh did with my room in the host club, i think it'd work just fine?

( just kind of a lot of work... )

what will you do if the power goes out?

[ That's... actually a good question. He has no idea if they'll continue supplying power, or if the building was protected from outages due to the weather or other external factors. ]

Considering the amount of space we'll need to grow food to sustain everyone, some of it might have to be indoors. But you're right. Best not to put all our eggs in one basket. I guess we'll need to set up a greenhouse outside after all.

[ There's just no avoiding getting Kaveh involved in this, is there? ]

( she only asks because - well, even back home certain magics went on the fritz. which happens when divinity pull back, apparently. and in this case, these scientists and their experiments may as well be playing the role of their gods. )

you sure are a thoughtful guy

( to think that far ahead and think to ensure others benefited from the effort, not just himself. orym would probably feel the same, given his roots. )

which district were you thinking? i can come help peek around a bit. see if the vibes are right

I'm simply planning ahead. Unless you want to introduce discord because we failed to produce enough food to sustain everyone.

[ No, he's thoughtful. It's true, don't listen to his denials. ]

It's probably best if the indoor garden is close to the park, assuming that's where we place the outdoor greenhouse. Otherwise... I'm not certain. This isn't my specialty.

[ He's Vahumana, not Amurta. Augh. Maybe he should be asking Tighnari questions as well... ]

( uh huh. sure buddy. she's not sure why there's denial about it but she will continue to think as she will, thanks. )

it's not? well, it might just be your lucky day then!

( .................... not necessarily. she doesn't have the basic framework of knowledge required for things like a community garden, considering her magic. so it's not like she can teach much of anything.. )

maybe we can ask kaveh if he's still using those lights that he had for the gala? unless he put those in my room in seventh hell, too.

I didn't want to involve him. That man already has too much in his hands. But it seems we might not have a choice in the matter, especially for something as important as this.

im starting to think that some of them are allergic to sitting down or something

( like what demons are you all running away from... get better hobbies. eat some peaches. take a nap. )

i wouldn't be surprised if i find them face first in the dirt someday

but anyway
you were really planning on doing all of that with just you and robby?

[ Little does she know that she's talking to a guy who doesn't even have an apartment, because he refuses to sleep and wanders the city at night. ]

It's a project that needs to be started one way or another. The longer we dawdle, the more unprepared we will be if our captors decide to stop restocking supplies.

But the more hands we get on this, the better. Once we've picked a location and planned the construction of the greenhouses, we'll need all the help we can get to get it set up quickly.

( AND SHE'S THE FREAK? please. couldn't be her. catch her honk shoo mimimi-ing at all warm and relatively flat surfaces, including people. )

i think we've fucked around enough if this has been an ongoing discussion since........ forever ago it seems like

( hm.. helping out might not be a bad thing. she doesn't think she will fail in her short term goal of realizing this ritual, but. it'd be a fun mark to leave behind. a personalized signature touched with her magic.

fine. )

if it helps narrow it down any, i'm staying in district 3 because of how close it is to the park and the greenhouse that's already in there since i used to go there a whole lot

Then we'll probably set it up around there. I'll let you know when we've decided on a location.
