Trooper Station | Saturday

[knife_bender]

Diego was grateful to have an excuse to be out of his apartment while Summer did her thing to it. He trusted her to clean up afterward, but it was still weird to be there while everything was being set up.

There had been a ton of mail stacked up, and a lot of it was just weird complaints, some of them written on napkins or scraps of paper. The one envelope that was filled with confetti was a little annoying, but whatever.

Castletopia: A Castle For You! For You? For You!!! | Saturday - EXTRA-SESSION

[bookbeltof_love]

Nina had, like, no idea how many people would bother to show or whatever, given that she really hadn't planned ahead or anything but it would be on radio and she'd have Dad and her brother at least (and likely Iggy and possibly some Troopers, too, if Dad actually did make them come work) and that was pretty great too.

So, like, bright and early and all the way into about mid-afternoon, there was going to be a lot of bustling (even if a lot of that bustling was magic-fueled, by her, cheating outrageously) to kind of, like, get in an extra session of castle building before Monday, which was technically the due date for their castle and she'd…

Kind of been busy this semester? So it had fallen by the wayside which was, like, tragic and she kind of hated that she'd been so unreliable but real life was rude when she was spying in a different universe it was kind of hard to build a castle in this one. Even for her.

Nina had her tents set up, with snacks and drinks (including Ebony, specially there for Ignis) and she had spent some time even earlier in the morning inspecting what they'd need to do and setting it up. The walls and roof were completed—thank goodness—but they still needed to get the windows in and lay down the floors and install the doors and…

Well, like, there was a lot to do!

Nina sent a text out for people to come build a castle if they so wished to spend a few hours of their Saturday doing something literally constructive and then, after finishing a cup of tea, she bounced to her feet and got to work on one of the windows.

[As per the post this is an informal castle-building session that's open to everyone on the island should they wish to have gotten the text/stumble upon it.]

Covent Garden Flowers, Saturday

Things had been intense recently, so Lucille hoped for a quiet day at the shop, knowing that the island might just decide to go against her wishes. She was lucky though, there seemed to be no oddities at all, and she could catch up on orders, although a lot of them had been cancelled after the previous week. Perhaps people had been carried away when affected by the pollen. Lucille was actually a bit relieved not to have to make those particular arrangements, since they were, well, rather explicit.

And, although she didn't think anyone would accuse her, since this was a regular occurrence (there were still new residents), she put a not in the window:

The owner would like to assure everyone that no plants from this shop were responsible or involved in the events of last week.
(No, I don't mean the children.)
