Atlas Gym, Monday (7/13)

[notallbluemonks]

Beau couldn't say she wasn't glad last week was over with. Not so much for the laundry issue -- she'd gone for weeks without having any proper laundry done while on the road with the Mighty Nein, which also meant constantly being spattered with blood (a lot of it her own) and various weird bits of goop and viscera, so this was kind of nothing in comparison. The heat, though? That had been pretty much torture for someone who'd grown up accustomed to the constant chill of western Wynandir.

So despite the fact that all her currency had changed overnight and there were a few unexpected things like a stone axe, about 99 clumps of weeds, and a ladder in her pockets, this was a welcome change as far as she was concerned. She'd shaken an entire home pullup bar apparatus out of a tree on her way here, and that made no sense whatsoever but Beau wasn't going to complain about that.

(... it fit in her pockets, too, which was both hilarious and unsettling. Jester's enchanted pink haversack couldn't quite accommodate anything that big.)

Though the cheery, soothing music that kept playing, even here in the gym, miiiiiiiiight make her reconsider how much of a welcome change this really was after a while.

Turtle & Canary; Monday [07/13].

[somethingwithturquoise]

You know, deep down, Summer wasn't really surprised or anything that there were two raccoons just hanging out at the store that day, considering the noticeable uptick in anthromorphic people running around the place so far this week and the fact that she already had a panda on the payroll, but it was still just a little...unexpected.

"....right," she said, "so do I need to get you guys paperwork, or something? Is this just a temporary thing? Should I just sort of let you do your thing and I'll do my thing and we'll be good? Yeah, good? Okay, cool. So, I guess, just...let me know if you need anything? I'll just let you do you, raccoon dudes. Help yourself to some Squishies, if you want, too."

Honestly, in the grand scheme of things, two raccoons looking to buy and sell shit wasn't even registering on the weirdness scale and, honestly? Summer was just glad that this was all she apparently had to deal with today, because last week sucked, and she'd much rather deal with wasps in the trees than bees in her store.

Oh, which reminded her to put up a sign:

Welcome to Turtle & Canary
NOW BEE-FREE!

Today's Squishy Flavors
Turnips
Coconut
Red

Turtle & Canary is open!

Blackstone Foundry and Forge; Monday [07/13].

[special_rabbit]

So in addition to clothes being back and Amaya hopefully being able to put some of the things from this weekend out of her mind a little bit (though it was being incredibly stubborn), the island had clearly moved onto something else for the time being, and Amaya was trying to focus on how to best work this to her advantage.

Lots of new faces.

Also lots of tools, of varying quality, because you know went and tested a few of the ones that had just shown up somehow in her pockets yesterday. And she had a feeling she wasn't the only one, which could either be a detriment to business this week or a potential untapped opportunity.

She was hoping for the latter, which is why she whipped up a sign to put outside the shop:

New Tools? No problem!
Special discount on upgradees to tools new AND old!
Or consider some tried-and-true Blackstone forged tools instead!
Dependable. Durable. Not Likely to Just Disappear When All This is Over!

And now to get to actually getting a better look at all those randomly appearing tools in her suddenly incredibly deep pockets to just see what could be done to them!

The Forge is open!

The Fandom Museum- Monday all day

[fh_animalcrossing]

Yesterday the building had been closed off for construction, and today, like magic, a whole new, improved building stood there! It was a stately building that looked pretty small and simple, though once you walked in you'd find that it had the potential to be much bigger. You know, once they had things to put in exhibits.

If you wandered in you'd find Blathers the owl, who was more than ready to collect your donations, tell you about items, or just explain what this place was.

Of course if you came during the day you'd have to wake him up first. Nocturnal, and all.


[Open!]

Town hall- all day Monday

[fh_animalcrossing]

Unfortunately for Tamsin, Tom Nook and Isabelle had not been evicted since yesterday. In fact, Tom Nook had not left the counter in 24 hours.

He was a very hard worker, see.

But he and Isabelle had an area set up with filing cabinets to go through and plants to water now when they weren't currently helping you, so they were feeling pretty lived in here already.

But if you did need to talk to them about construction or resident services, they would happily drop everything to help you out!

The Beach, Monday Morning

[firstofitskind]

Liam had been checking up on the radio broadcasts throughout the week and things seemed to be- well, still weirder than normal for Fandom, but, like, a harmless weird? So he'd booked a portal for himself, squirrel-Verity, and the mice, and-

... Found himself in a very small airport?

Manned by an anthropomorphic Dodo?

You know what? Liam was just going to roll with it. Which is how he found himself on a seaplane from Baltimore to Fandom Island.

Just don't ask what led to his current circumstances, which were swimming ashore instead of walking on to the island from the dock.

Also don't ask why he was completely dry the moment he stepped out of the water, squirrel-Verity perched on his shoulder. Or where the wetsuit he was currently wearing came from.

He did, however, very much want to know where the valise that the mice usually traveled in had ended up, and was looking around a little wild-eyed and panicky at the thought of losing them at sea.

The Park- Monday morning

[throughaphase]

It was possible that this week was great for kids. Kitty had brought Lexi out for a walk and ended up in the park for the last half hour where Lexi was running around trying to catch grasshoppers and demanding that Kitty shake trees.

There'd almost been a Situation with a wasp, but Kitty had caught that in time. Plus, free wasp nest!

It should also be said that Lexi had found a net in her pockets (which Kitty was not looking forward to checking later, dear god) and was attempting to use it, but mainly she was just hitting things. The grass, the air, a tree, a talking cat...


[Open!]

The Perk, Monday morning

[betterthanaplan]

That soothing music was really getting on Duke's nerves.

It was inescapable, though. Much like the piles of sea shells and corals he had crammed into his pockets, alongside a wide variety of tools (a ladder? Seriously??), a hell of a lot of coconuts, and a whale shark he'd managed to catch while fishing this morning.

And a little pouch of gold coins where his wallet used to be. He set one of the coins down on the counter at the Perk. "Please tell me you'll take this in exchange for a very large, very caffeinated beverage."

They would. Purple pants barista also offered him a fringed skirt, just because they were friends.

[open!]

The airport- Monday all day

[fh_animalcrossing]

Surely you'd noticed the airport with the seaplane docked in front of it by now. If you wanted to actually see inside of it, you'd find a tiny, one-room airport with chairs to wait in and a check-in desk manned by a dodo named Orville.

Did you want to get away from the island for a little bit? Go to the mainland? Visit deserted islands? Come on in! Let the dodos help you fly!
