Feel free to ignore this until after the festivities, but since November starts tomorrow, I thought I'd ask what everyone is interested in including in the island base. Or what structures you would be interested in seeing around the island. So far all that we have planned to my knowledge are the watchtowers - the farm seems to be coming along and we should maybe consider fences or whatever there, but otherwise we don't actually have anything really set in stone.

You should feel free to throw anything out there, and to respond to anyone else. I'll just gradually be collecting the ideas from here and drawing up plans for you all, so long as what you're suggesting is actually within our power to do. But all things considered, I think most things are. This should also give everyone a chance to team up with anyone else who is doing something they wanted to do.

In terms of things I'm doing other than the watchtowers, an aboveground track and training area is something I was personally interested in. To start us off.

Happy Halloween. Try not to break anything too critical.

it's halloween there's a party and you're texting about more building.

[ he loves you cuz but dude, come on ]

[wises]

I'm going to the party?

[ YOU CAN'T ASK HER TO NOT THINK ABOUT PRODUCTIVE THINGS AT THE PARTY THOUGH ok no she has. a problem. ]

[wearys]

yeah but you'll spend the whole time going "man you know what this cafeteria needs? more greek columns".

[wises]

[ ................

like she knows he's mocking her but ]

The cafeteria would actually look nicer with a few more columns.

[wearys]

you think everywhere would look nicer with a few more columns.

[wises]

What do you have against columns?

[wearys]

I just wanna know what is it with the greeks and romans and columns, anyway. like why the weird obsession with that one type of architectural structure? it's just a giant stone stick that holds stuff up, and sometimes you see ones that don't even hold stuff up? they're just standing around, being randomly greek and artsy. what's all that about?

[wises]

Would it make you feel better if I added more arches and high ceilings? We can carve some angry looking men with beards into things, too.

[wearys]

yes, that would make me feel so much better. don't forget a giant tree that rises through all the layers of the base and will drive you insane if you aren't careful climbing it. and ravens, carrying notes.

[wises]

I don't love you that much, smartass.

[ but maybe she will do some arches and high ceilings around the base and a seriously angry viking man doorknocker on magnus and percy's door? ]

Also, we're fresh out of ravens.

[wearys]

wow I'm hurt. so hurt.

[ honestly he doesn't feel that norse to really need stuff like that but it'd be hilarious? go for the gold, annabeth. ]

damn, when's the next batch come in. can we substitue crows.

[wises]

Unfortunately I don't have anything down about a shipment of ravens ever. Tough luck, cuz.

Do you have any actual suggestions/requests, by the way?

[wearys]

darn. I'll check on amazon once we have internet, computers, and a wifi reach to earth.

uh. I feel like I should make another norse joke about, like. a grand meeting hall or some crap. oh, we need a foodcourt with restaurants. like a falafel place.

[wises]

We'd need people to man the restaurants if we made them.

[wearys]

ok we need some of those then. probably on amazon, too.

or uh isn't there a dude who's really into robots? the brother of the farm god guy. we could have roborestauranteers.

[wises]

You admittedly could ask Dirk about that, although I feel we're pushing the sci-fi angle a little hard if it comes to that. Though the skeleton dancers may need new jobs anyway?

[wearys]

I feel like the whole underwater base on what may or may not be an alien planet already pushes the sci-fi angle. beam me up, scotty.
