[Action A.]

[After a few days of settling in, Karkat will finally choose a house that approximates the location of his old house in Benny Lane relative to the rest of the town. It's kind of a crappy place; there are at least completed rooms, but it's still crawling with insects and has a dusty, stale smell inside.

But he doesn't really mind sleeping on the floor for now while he gets set up. Instead, he's used the few powers he has to decorate the exterior of the house to look more like an Alternian hive, complete with Alternian language on the mailbox spelling out his name. It's more than vanity; he hopes it will draw any and all trolls that happen to show up to seek him out.]

[Action B.]

[He's standing outside City Hall, nailing some papers to the wall.]

PRIORITIES:
1. CLEAN WATER (LET'S NOT EVEN TALK ABOUT PLUMBING, THAT WOULD BE SO GREAT)
2. RELIABLE FOOD SUPPLY, BECAUSE PICKING SHIT OFF TREES IS ONLY GOING TO SUSTAIN US FOR SO LONG WITHOUT A PLAN.
3. SHELTER, BY WHICH I MEAN WALLS ON ALL OF THE HOUSES AND THE ABSOLUTE BASICS AS FAR AS FURNITURE GOES, RECREATION BLOCK SETS MEANT FOR YOUR FRIENDS TO REST DRINKS ON DURING A PARTY ARE NOT IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW.
4. MEDICAL SUPPLIES AND BASIC HYGIENE.
5. WORKING ELECTRICITY.
6. AT SOME POINT WHEN THE REST IS TAKEN CARE OF, WHATEVER DUMB THINGS YOU WANT. UNTIL THEN, IF YOU HAVE SPECIAL TOWN SHAPING POWERS AND ARE NOT USING THEM FOR THESE PURPOSES, YOU ARE OFFICIALLY AN ASSHOLE.

LET'S DISCUSS OUR PLANS FOR ANY OF THE ABOVE.

((OOC: Just to get people posting in here if they want to :) Feel free to threadjack/start your own threads in this post.))

[Lucas and Boney squint from a few paces back at the signs Karkat is nailing up.

Lucas glances down at Boney.

Boney discreetly stands on two legs and hides behind Lucas with his paws around his waist. This plan is foolproof.]

...Karkat! ...It's good to see you again.

[Gamzee wanders out of the machine in the morning and promptly gets himself horrendeously lost. Everything looks weird and different okay, and even with his admittedly spotty memory, he's pretty sure things are not where they used to be around here.

Because of this, and because he also wasted a few hours staring at his hands in awe when he figured our how to summon Faygo miracouslt, it's midafternoon when he finally manages to stumble across Karkat's give. He stares at it for a few confused minutes before shrugging and knocking on the door.]

[ sniffing at the list, before adding something to it. ]

[He'll ignore just the pleasantry of saying hello and how long it had been and blah blah blah.]

Clean water, at least providing it in something like water bottles shouldn't be too hard. Plumbing might take a little while even with people using their powers in tandem to make it. Not a long while, but possibly a couple weeks and making sure some idiot doesn't somehow mess some system up. Same with the houses, but we can work on the houses just about the same time as the plumbing.

Electricity might oddly enough be one of the easier things to set up with, considering all the tech heads here, let alone the creation powers.

It'll just depend on people actually using them to do this crap, instead of just going on doing what they want.

[Says the boy who abused his powers already to give himself a sweet trenchcoat.]

[An hour or so after Karkat's nailed them to the wall, Sam will leave a Post-It note.]

I have medical supplies. Probably not enough for everyone, though.

[fatedmagica]

[ Madoka looks at the papers on the wall and giggles, amused by some of the phrasing. Though she'd like to be taking a red pen to some of the swearing, she'll resist for now. ]

Maybe we should include sign-up lists on the side? Nothing will get done if everyone is working on their own, right, Karkat?

I can help with water... uh, without even using the town powers, I mean.

[There's something she's been contemplating off and on. Mainly due to the thought of having to live alone.]

Not everyone is going to necessarily want or need a full single family house. In some cases it might help to pool resources to generate smaller flats instead.

[roadroller]

[Rin looked at the sign, although no ideas came to mind right away. It's still sinking in that they're going to have to build a world from scratch. She didn't stick around to discuss.

But, she does want to help, so after wandering around and thinking about it for a while, she puts her mind to it, and summons ...

A BUFFALO!

What? She figured people are going to want to eat some animals, and this one is huge and not very cute so she won't feel so bad about it. She figures it can just wander off into the outskirts and eat some copypasted grass or whatever. This is the best plan.]

[doudemoe]

[Looking over the list. Generally agrees with all of this, and already thinking of what to do. Something else to think about though...]

We should consider some heating sources. We don't know how cold it will get here.

[ooeeooahah]

[ Ilsa smiles as she reads over his shoulder. She is smiling more often, these days. Still, she has enough sense to wait until Karkat is finished with his task before speaking. ]

Good organization here. That first problem was my first question, too. I'm working on rainwater collection and a water purification unit at the diner. Finally got it assembled yesterday, but I'll need to test it on purifying what's here before we start having fill ups. Still, it's only meant to be a back-up for a city treatment plant.

I should be able to start serving at least one meal a day at the diner when it's running properly.

[witchofthechalk]

[Looking over the list with a nod.]

And if we create raw material, then we can build things ourselves as well as using powers.

[buildstherobots]

[Dist studies the paper for a moment, then nods with a perfectly sincere conviction.]

We should have aqueducts.

[No, he's not joking. Aqueducts are awesome and pretty.]
