Day 77:: Event - return home
Who: everyone and anyone
Open: Open
When: Day 77, late in the afternoon, after both groups have returned to the Bastion
Where: by the monument
What: With another core retrieved, it's time to choose what will be added to the Bastion. Also, other threads with NPCs will happen here.
Format: action
Warnings: none
[Even though today's mission was a success, it hardly felt like one. Marie had not been found, and two others- Shion and Nezumi- had gone missing during the mission. The NPCs by and large are upset at this turn of events: while finding a Core is good, losing people is not.
When everyone returns from the Skyway, the NPCs are gathered around the Monument, waiting for everyone there. After some time for discussions, Nathaniel steps forward.]
I know it's kinda hard to talk about now, but we gotta do something about this core right away. After we do that, we can worry about the others.
After working with the Bastion a bit, I think I figured out how it prioritizes what gets fixed and when. I don't have it completely done yet, but I managed to isolate three of the high-priority items, so we can choose which of the three to fix next.
One of the things is electricity. I know living without power hasn't been easy, so with this we can start automating a lot of our daily tasks like washing and stuff, which would free up a lot of time for exploring the Skyway.
Another thing we could do is get a hospital built. We haven't had much trouble with it yet, thankfully, but a hospital would be really handy for when someone gets hurt. Even without a doctor here, just having the supplies would be great.
The last thing we can do is get a ranch built. Since we've got chickens 'n cows now, a ranch might be a good idea, since it'll give 'em a place to live, and all the stuff for taking care of 'em will be right there. We won't have to go out hunting for food or other stuff for the animals then.
Any of the three would be a good addition to what we've got now, so I'll leave it up to you guys to decide what to do.
((OOC: There are two threads below: one for voting on which improvement to get, and one for talking to NPCs. Besides that, you can have your characters respond to the post itself to talk to each other about what to do.
the voting thread will be open for 24 hours. At that time, we'll be closing the voting thread and whichever upgrade has the most votes will be the one chosen.))

VOTING
Re: VOTING
I wanted to apologize for our failure to find Lady Marie, personally. Worse, we lost others, so focused were we on the goal we did not notice the departures. It grieves me, and I believe responsibility should be taken.
In regards to what we ought do with the core, any development will likely serve in some fashion, but if we are forced to vote, I would suggest a medical facility. The gentleman...Stein? His condition upon arriving to the Bastion highlights the point that not everyone will be so fortunate as to arrive unscathed. Nor are any of us likely to remain in good health, so long as forays into the Skyway remain necessary.
Now, if you will excuse me. I do hope today was worth it. [ He bows deeply, rises slowly and retreats in silence, his expression distant.>
Re: Your Brains (I had to make the joke. I just had to)
[Not much of a greeting, but the fact that he bothered to remember the de-facto leader's name is at least somewhat of a sign of respect.]
While a hospital would certainly be beneficial, I believe that the ranch should be our first priority, given the dietary needs of some of our number.
...Good day to you.
[With that, he retreats to his basement. It's been a long day, and to lose three in a single day is more worrisome than he lets on.]

[ Duke can heal, so as long as someone knows how to deal with colds or worse things more than "all the fluids ever", and they don't run into anything poisonous, the knight thinks that's needed most. ]
I've had this ready to go since this (...my!) morning, so... just to be awkward...
It's not as if we're ruling out any of the other options right now - we're just stalling them for a while, right?

[Rin was quieter than usual when she approached Nathaniel. She really didn't seem like herself, but that was probably understandable, all things considered.]
So... I gotta admit I ain't really sure. All three of 'em would be good, and everyone's got their own ideas on what's gonna work best right now.
I know we can get other stuff later, but uh... I guess I'm gonna be the odd one out and vote for electricity. I mean it's cool if we don't get it 'cause I'm sure I'm gonna be out voted, but that's where I'm at...

Or, in other words, a vote for meow-meow-meow-grumble-meow. ]
