I don't mind at all! I'd happily take the excuse to visit him, even.
[She laughs a little.]
Feel free to leave me a list of places around the Fortress you want crosses placed, too--both of us working should cut the time needed to get everything covered. Just make sure you get some rest, okay?

PSA: The crops and main orchard in the greenhouse's serenitea pot are still free to use. Just please leave enough for the kitchen to use.
However, the trees and any future plants on the island separated from all the others are NOT to be touched without prior authorization. In the unlikely scenario you manage to survive the security measures that's been installed, the plants grown on that island are enchanted in ways that may one day make you wish the security measures had killed you. So for your own sake, please resist any temptation and stay away from that island.
[And on that happy note...!]
Anyway, the gardening stores have stocked their seeds for the growing season. So if anyone has any special requests for crops they want me to grow, just let me know! γ½(*γ»Ογ»)οΎ

Is this a Garden of Eden situation? Because it sounds a little like it might be a Garden of Eden situation?
[He's just saying. The Catholic going on about trees being verboten? In a garden? That they can touch anything else in?
Caleb isn't religious he's just American okay, he Knows This Story]

No, I ask that you please still wear clothing while visiting the garden.

There's no snake over there. [Just a dragon but that's a ~surprise~ ]
And it's not the Tree of Knowledge, no. Right now, there's just some immortal peach trees over there. If you eat the fruit, you'll become immortal and forever tied to the Spirit Realm.

Thank you, but that's alright. Varian's spent a lot of time designing the physical security system on the island, while I and few others handled the magical ones - so it's plenty well fortified.
This is just a PSA letting everyone know to stay away from that island.

I built a lot of the security systems which should give you a good idea of why Jun is telling you your likelihood of surviving them is slim. As someone who knows what those plants can do, I am seriously echoing do not mess with them. If you ignore all these warnings and still mess with them, you might not survive me.
[He will make your life a living hell and you will be stuck with him for centuries doing so. Don't do that to yourself. Anyway! Hi Sweetie!]
Blueberries would make my day. I can make so many muffins.

He's right. Varian put a lot of work into the security systems. The chainsaw pit was truly inspired.
Oh blueberries would be delicious! Maybe can put hedges near the edge, to help keep anyone from falling off. And I haven't forgotten the raspberries either!

The chainsaw pit is great. It really sends a message and that message is "don't go beyond the chainsaw pit".
Yes, good idea! A natural border. And good, I knew you wouldn't - gotta make sure we have what we need for plenty of treats after all. I wanna keep you happy in deserts.

Mm. A simple, clear, and very effective message.
Haha, you spoil me. Berries are really useful to have. So blueberries, raspberries- oh maybe some blackberries too? Might as well have a full assortment of berries.

I mean, if you can't get the message that you shouldn't be there from the chainsaw pit, I really don't think there's much hope for you.
You deserve to be spoiled. And oh, I love that idea. It was always great when it was berry picking time, they're so versatile for dishes. You can never have too many different berries. Sounds perfect, thanks, Honey.

[Sometimes after Zulius's post about the Vogue's Pride events, Jun is hitting up the meropide group chat]
I'm sure some of you already saw it, but next month the Vogue is doing their annual drag competition. For those who don't know, drag is a performance art where people dress in outfits of the opposite gender and do a stage performance.
Anyway, it's free to enter and the grand prize is $5000. So I was thinking, if we work together and several of us enter the competition, we could win the prize and put the money towards something that'd benefit the fortress! What that something may be... that'd be up to the actual winner!
What do you say? I can help with people deciding on their outfits, and Varian can help with any special effect props you want! We did this last year with POKEGO and we know what we're doing, so we know what we're doing.

Awww, are you sure? I'm sure March and Dan Heng would be happy to help you out.
You could use the prize money to make improvements to the mail room~

Alright, fair enough! Helping get things together would be a big help itself!
[Oh. Wrong person to say this to.] Oh? Are you going to pay him to do that?
[Oh. Wrong person to say this to.] Oh? Are you going to pay him to do that?
[Look he has to be SURE. The knife on his end gets lowered]
Right, of course.
Anyway, once we have a better idea of who is participating and what they want, I can send you a list of stuff we need.

But Ragna, you could get some quality cookware with that kind of money. Are you sure you want to refuse the idea so quickly?

You're not getting me in drag, so yes.

We did pretty okay last year, Jun's right. I'm happy to build whatever props you need. I've been stockpiling scrap ready for June, just in case! I'm all set for any smoke machines, light shows, glowing paint or anything else you might need!
