∞ 25: In interest of a calendar...

[chikaidestroyer]

Since I've just completed my project, I'd like to conduct a simple poll with the citizens of Luceti.

Would you use a calendar if one was standardized for the village?

I'm thinking of ways to distribute this list to those that showed early interested. From my research, I can say it's Monday, April 21. The most common names of weekdays and months are listed below -- those are what I used for standardizing the calendar for Luceti.

Days of the Week (7 to a week, 30/31/28 to a month, 365.25 to a year)
Sunday
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday

Months of the Year (12 to a year)
January (31 days)
February (29 days this "leap" year, 28 for next three years)
March (31 days)
April (30 days)
May (31 days)
June (30 days)
July (31 days)
August (31 days)
September (30 days)
October (30 days)
November (30 days)
December (31 days)

Heh.

Well, we might expect one, eventually. Who knows for certain, though? I imagine we're due to find out in a few days, either way.

Ah, yeah, but they haven't been put into the ground, yet. Things have been a little hectic as of late with everything going on, and it's kind of hard to take care of your plants when you're dead. I'm surprised I kept as many alive as I did, honestly.

[chikaidestroyer]

Yes, we're approaching the time that another experiment is due. I wish there was a way that we could prepare for something.

You've let some of his plants die? Have you no gardening sense, Caesar?

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

We could try. How, I'm not sure, but ... Al, I don't know how to go about it. Perhaps distributing contingency plans based on the types of experiments we've dealt with before?

I'm a strategist, dammit, not a gardener! I don't know anything about plants!

[chikaidestroyer]

We really should build a warehouse, or an armory of sorts. Lloyd is already making plans to create a forge, so we can at least start something there.

You need to turn the soil now that it's spring time. The surface soil has probably crusted over with dead foliage and overabundant minerals by now.

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

Sure, for all the good I imagine it would do us. Though I suppose it would be interesting to see what the Malnosso will and won't let us get away with.

I ... what? Runes, that sounds like a lot of trouble. He's the one with all the plans for it.

[chikaidestroyer]

[totally sarcastic] Maybe if we all go crazy and start burning down the village, we'll get their attention.

It's not hard. Get away from your desk and spend a few minutes with your hands in the dirt. Just mix it without damaging the roots.

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's a fantastic idea! Make sure to start with the library.

...I've had all the attention from them I ever wanted already.

Ah, but it sounds like something you're so much more knowledgeable about, big brother~

[chikaidestroyer]

Oh yes, because it'll burn the fastest. Maybe it will catch some other houses in the process.

You don't want to get your hands dirty, Caesar? I would think you would be used to it, tromping around the Grasslands and Luceti forests.

[ooc: Unintentional? :o If you look up 'lazy' in the dictionary, you'll find Caesar next to the definition. Oh, this is gonna get interesting. >>]

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

And it's cathartic, to boot. Stress relief is always good.

It's not that I'm adverse to getting my hands dirty, I've just ... uh, got other things I have to attend to. Yeah.

[chikaidestroyer]

I haven't really seen a need for stress relief myself, but I suppose so.

I completely believe you. Someone has to cook dinner around here.

[ooc: Caesar walked into this one~]

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

You might think otherwise had you spent some time in my position.

Don't tell me you're growing fond of my kitchen disasters?

[chikaidestroyer]

Somehow, I doubt it.

If ever there was a time to work on your cooking skills, this would be it. You can't rely on your boyfriend to make your meals all the time.

[ooc: He is. Ohh, he is. And it amuses Albert. Quietly.]

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

Then you are by far a stronger person than I, big brother.

I'm not the only one he cooks for, Albert. You could be at least a little grateful; if it weren't for his domestic prowess, likely we'd have starved or poisoned ourselves by now.

[chikaidestroyer]

But of course. I also received all of the familial height, if you didn't notice.

I can cook just fine. You should really pay attention.

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

...I've made my peace with that, by now.

Sure, if you don't mind eating like a Harmonian.

[chikaidestroyer]

I suppose that's all you can do, hopping around like an angry dwarf aside.

Is there something wrong with eating like a Harmonian?

[nowarstowin.livejournal.com]

...shut up, Albert.

Not if you're a fan of the bland and tasteless.

[chikaidestroyer]

It's better than war rations.

[ooc: When you willingly compare your cooking to army supplements, you know something's wrong. XD]

Nominally.
