The ponds themselves are covered with and surrounded by plant life, which sadly can't be said for the soil. Despite the damp and seemingly fertile soil, the plant life only appears to be able to flourish on these vaguely luminous bodies of water. With this revelation I propose we start work on a hydroponic farm near our home where we can create some narrow canals that we can seed with these mushrooms and grow leafy greens to add to our slowly dwindling food supply. 

I hope y'all like salad.

I've been trying to get it to talk to me all day, but to no avail. It seems to be shy, so we need to make sure it feels comfortable! Use moist language! Relate to it by sharing stories about times you, too, were wet! Express your radical desires for a Damp State to overthrow the tunnel's current system of government! Be considerate of the towelette's feelings, though! It might be easily overwhelmed by us, so try to seem calm and accepting.

We have much to learn from this clammy creature, and it is of grave importance that we have it on our side in the upcoming Wet Revolution.

A puddle of greenish blue liquid. At just the right angle, a purple shimmer refracts off the surface. No one quite knows how deep the puddle goes. A fresh and familiar smell emanates from it, like an early spring morning.

It should be very tall so we can see far and I think that high hill to the northeast in the horizon would be a good spot for it. We can make it about 6 meters tall without losing much structural integrity or balance so hopefully it'll withstand minor earthquakes should they happen. I'll start by making my way to the hill and leaving signs behind to mark the way.

The eyewitnesses have only been able to make out one feature of the creature each. Perhaps due to the creature only coming out at night and it being harder to see in the dark (I am a very good detective). I'm collecting all of the testimonies to figure out what it is. Anyone willing to come forward please describe your encounters with the beast to me.

The tunnel ended up really well. Next step is figuring out what to use all this space for.

I suggest we build library in one of the tunnel's branches . Not only we need a place to store our discoveries and knowledge, but also a place we can gather to discuss further actions.

I don't know what kind of crazy world we're in, or if there are even dogs here. But we'll need a loyal animal companion by our side. If we ever encounter a friendly creature, we'll have this home ready for it.

This grassy area to the west of our home looks like a nice place to put it. I'm starting construction!

I propose we build a brand new old flooded house.

I'll begin by flooding the picturesque flower field to prepare the work site. Happy building.

Investigations into the runes uncovered in the old tunnel have already begun (woo!) and I'm busting to get stuck in. However, we're lacking equipment and a quiet – or not so quiet, depending on the research project! – space separate from the everyday goings on at [HOME]. Not to mention there's still all that rubble sitting there in a heap outside the tunnel.

As a first step in construction, I'm just moving the rubble down south a little bit and laying out some foundations. At least I think that's what I'm doing. I've never built a building before, and don't actually know how you're supposed to make foundations. This will probably take me at least all day, and I won't be able to get onto anything else myself.

Also, just a note on the location. I picked here so that, when we complete projects, we'll have to pass through [HOME] on our way to deliver our discoveries to the in-progress library (assuming, hoping it gets built).

big bapa had a big belly from all the candy he ate, so naturally, the bookcase's lowest shelf must allow for easy access to bowls of candy, complete with a drawer of "hidden", better candy directly beneath it. Jelly Belly is always, always in stock. had he known how to use the internet, i don't doubt he would have been blessed with @jellybelly themselves following him on twitter

it's a pretty basic house, and doesn't have the best heating system (it has a furnace that needs to have wood added or moved around within it every few hours), so someone will always need to be around to keep the fire going if it gets chilly outside, but it has charm and always has candy in stock

help me build this safe haven from the world of adults for us as a tribute to big bapa

thank you
