stick around and see how it ends [ OPEN MINGLE ]

Who: Anyone!
What: Catch-all Denny mingle for the month of July
When: Throughout all of July, generally
Where: Denny
Warnings: Label your stuff if it comes up but otherwise nothing comes to mind



[Feel free to use this as a catch-all for whatever your character might conceivably be doing here. Are they loitering outside? Delivering supplies/food, or looking to share information about the city under the water? Helping improve the place because god knows it certainly needs it? Cooking? Socializing? Eating? Just wanting to booze it up? I've heard chatter of live music, so whatever you wanna do here, go for it! There are also some newer additions of rudimentary game boards and decks of cards to pass the time.]

[There are nominal rules but if you don't get caught you don't have to deal with them, so you do you.]

Oh, that is hardly true. You are the reason this place exists at all!

[Asgore probably wouldn't have built something like this. He wouldn't have thought of it, or else he wouldn't have wanted to put himself out there so much. It seems, sometimes, like he ought to be taking up more of a leadership role here - but then again, nobody is looking to him for that anymore. It just feels like he's getting away with something.]

It has been very good for us, as a community.

I suppose you cannot always make everyone happy.

[can't stop trying though, ha ha...ha....]

But certainly it is still worthwhile to provide something, than nothing at all.

[personal profile] journalname 2019-08-09 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
Of course not.

[...Asgore's not really confident that they've settled the matter of whether or not Tim did a good job here, but it also seems like launching into another round of it might be too much.]

I find it quite nice to come here, when I have work like this to do. [Nodding at the yet-unshucked pods.] I enjoy having people around, when I can.

They are...

[People are usually in their homes, he thinks, when they're on the islets. There's not a lot of gathering, for all that there is a sort of common central yard.]

My home is a little farther out, as well. I chose it for the extra land - of course, that did turn out to be necessary.

I would rather not have to go so far.

[Also, if he didn't have the limitations of his yard, Where Would It Stop]

Not especially. This climate is good for a wide variety of plants. I am from a more temperate area, myself, but I am still familiar with many of the fruits and berries that grow there. And the island's unique plants are so interesting!

Like those lantern plants!

[SORRY TIM, Asgore was on pretty good terms with them before the whole volcano thing, he's got just all sorts of plants from Cahypdo. Even now he doesn't bear them any ill will - although that's just kinda a theme with him.]

And my furniture. I think that I could give away a few cuttings of those now...I attempted to offer them over the network before, but that was when the stones were doing...odd things.

[yep let's never discuss the stone thing again]

Yes! I have a large flower they use as a chair, and a table made from a sturdy vine in the style they showed me. It takes some time for them to grow to maturity, of course.

[read: he spent several months with a room full of useless giant plant matter]

You know, I'm sure I could grow some lantern flowers around here, if you would like them inside Denny.

[personal profile] journalname 2019-08-11 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Several months, easily. Less for the chairs.

[Asgore hadn't thought Tim would want the living furniture for Denny, but if he does...he casts a thoughtful eye around the place.]

You would need trellises for the tables to grow along, as well.
journalname: (🔱 wtf man)

[personal profile] journalname 2019-08-12 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, that is the downside - you would have to uproot them.

[That's perfectly possible, but it would be stressful on the plant, and a fair amount of effort besides.]

I suppose people might like to move the chairs around, as well... [Hm.] You could have some permanently set up around the sides of the room, and leave the rest as they are?
journalname: (🔱 ceremony)

[personal profile] journalname 2019-08-12 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
The chairs only create one large flower - big enough to seat me, but it has not grown much since.

[For a human, it's gotta be the biggest cushiest chair]

And the tables would only need to be pruned some. I could manage that.

I suppose they must eventually, but mine have not yet. Perhaps they are still too young, or it is not yet the season for it.

[Those are details that would be nice to have, but oh well. He'll manage.]

If they did, I imagine it would be clear before too long. I'm sure I could find them different homes.

[personal profile] journalname 2019-08-13 02:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course! I would be happy to help!

[He genuinely seems to be. It's nice to have something productive to do. The garden's productive in its way - most of what he grows ends up in the shared stores - but it feels far more removed from everyone else.]
