[ he nods his agreement, because he's pretty sure that all of them are restless, but points to the smaller pieces first. ]
Markers, for our departed friends. Lucas mentioned wantin' to tend to their bodies, which we probably can't do, so maybe we can do somethin' else for 'em. This is about all I can do, though. My handwritin' is terrible and I'm no cleric.
[ and then he kind of - waves his hand at the rest. ]
Mr. Daan and I were talkin' about makin' a clinic and all that, so storage for supplies. And maybe we can make a garden of our own so we don't have to keep askin' for our masked friends to let us use theirs.
[she nods quietly, listening for a moment and considering this carefully.]
Nona and I were talking about wanting to do some rites for them, too. When I asked Famine they said we're going to have to get a little creative in how we do this. So maybe this is the way to do it. [...] I have three flower crowns. I don't mind dismantling some of them to make the markers look a little nicer. Something to stand out from how the rest of this place looks.
[but a clinic also makes sense.]
Both of those sound like a really nice idea. We could use both more than most things. A lot of people still have their robes they aren't using that we can cut more bandages from, and if we collect a few small kits for wound treatments we can keep them in one spot for everyone to grab as they need things. [obviously she likes the idea of a garden, too.] You think we'll be able to make anything grow while we're here?
I still have some of the flowers from mine. Stuff I couldn't make into concoctions. Could lend 'em to the cause, if you'd like.
[ he smiles a little, something that's hopeful for their rotten futures. if they can do at least one nice thing for their deceased friends... it would be nice. ]
For growin' stuff... I dunno. This place has plants, so the soil's not dead. But maybe by makin' our own garden with some of the wood to elevate things, keep us from accidentally walkin' all over 'em, we could ask our masked friends for some actual soil. I'm only kind of - [ wobbles his hand a bit ] - at the plantin' part of things, but I know it's on your pyre page and some other people know more than I would.
It could be nice for them. Even if they may never see them, keeping them in our thoughts is going to be important for solving the problems here. [she doesn't know if there's a way to retrieve their souls, but...letting their deaths be in vain seems too sad.]
I've never really grown vegetables before, but it shouldn't be that different from flowers. As long as they have light and water and we give them a safe place to grow everything should live on its own. Plants are a lot tougher than you think, but giving them a little boost can't hurt. It could be a good project for people who want to help and keep themselves busy, too.
[ he's also wondering if there's a wait to revive them, but without access to magic he's not sure where to even begin with that. but... at least they can keep their spirits alive in this way. ]
Maybe we can just have little projects like that? I use a lot of flowers in my concoctions - yarrow's the base for my main one, honestly, so I'm gonna be usin' a lot of it - but some more food options, just something to bring life to this place...
Things to leave for Aventurine, Mr. Boothill, and Death. It might help keep us from losin' spirit.
I think that's a great idea. [she genuinely loves it, actually. it's something small but it's doable.]
Every week little by little we can try to add more things in to give people more options. Make it feel less like we're stuck and more like we're still doing something, even if we can't be with the people we've lost.
