Save Our Parks! (OPEN)

[rekindlemods]

Who: Everyone Where: Mostly Districts 2 and 3 When: 20th September Summary: In light of the new district reopening, there's still a lot to do! This log is open to everyone if they want to see what else is going on in the city, or help with some important tasks. Warnings: Inbox death may occur. System overload at own risk. SOME NPC RESPONSES WILL BE SLOW UNTIL THE ONE WHO PLAYS THEM IS PRESENT. I'm only happy when it rains... Some of the natives have been busy. There's a little stand set up in the plaza that wasn't there before. They have minions, too: people with clipboards are assaulting recent arrivals on the street with requests. It seems that most of the employees are helping with the district reopening, and that means everyone else is incredibly understaffed. But wait! Don't walk away! If your character helps with some of the chores around the city, they'll get a little money added to their stipend, as well as a coupon to the new store opening today in District 3. District 2 Residents will be asked to help hang up tiny twinkling lights in the trees lining the streets, nothing so fancy as during the summer festival but something with lasting power throughout the oncoming rainfall. There are water fountains that need to be insulated, gigantic mountains of leaves that should be disposed of, and plants requiring trimming. District 3 In addition to the winterization chores going on in the second district, the shopping district has their own problems to take care of. Large potted plants need to be moved inside-- that's a job for physically fit characters-- and little tents need to be taken down. Oh, and they need lights in the trees here, too. New Store There is a lot of excitable chattering surrounding the new store on the main shopping street. The sign is currently covered in plastic and unreadable. Boxes Near the water, groups of trees, or small parks, characters might stumble upon a group of canvas-covered boxes and someone desperately looking for help with them. There are a lot, after all. YOU MAY NOW REPLY. Thank you for your patience! NPCs will pop into the last two sections. Otherwise, comment and threadjack at will.

[Ugh Steve why such bad taste]

Who says I'm doing it for them. [he quirks an eyebrow at Rogers, then turns and continues with the lights]

Maybe I'm bored. Maybe I just like to look at my name.

[wontdoanyless]

You seem like the type of guy that wants everyone to notice him. [And now Steve was making judgmental calls.]

[ironyman]

Really? Wow. [SARCASM IS GO.] Never realized that.

How long'd it take you to come up with that indepth character analysis?

[wontdoanyless]

[He could hear the sarcasm in Tony's voice, but Steve was just going to keep on opening his big mouth anyway. He was just too easy to rile up, especially now.]

Somewhere between first seeing you and you openin' your mouth for the first time. [He might be exaggerating a little, but just a little.]

[ironyman]

[Tony rolls his eyes and keeps working on the lights.]

I really hope that wasn't supposed to be clever. Because if so...

[And he gives Steve a look]

[wontdoanyless]

I'm just straight up sayin' what I think. [Steve continued to frown at him, but it really didn't have the same kind of impact as his normal frown.]

[ironyman]

Yeah. [Tony furrows his brow at Steve.]

Still weird. [Rogers with no brain-mouth filter is weird, that is. Syntax that makes sense is for losers.]

[wontdoanyless]

[And now he looked confused.]

What is? Not holding back what I say to you? [Was Stark not used to people being blunt with him? He wasn't sure.]

[ironyman]

You not holding back. [his lip curls a little like thinking about something particularly distasteful]

Last time it took some kind of magic pissed off stick before you told me what you thought. Though, to be fair, I could've done without.

[wontdoanyless]

Don't see why I should. Don't care if you're stronger or taller than me. [Not that Tony was the tallest guy he stood up to, but he was still taller than him.]

...I don't know what you're talking about, but that magic stick isn't gonna be necessary now.

[ironyman]

And ironically I am neither when you do hold back.

[he rolls his eyes disdainfully] Guess Captain America's too heroic to say what he thinks.

[wontdoanyless]

I wouldn't know, I'm not Captain America. [Even if he becomes that guy later on, he's not him now. That's all Steve can really say.] I haven't fought Nazis and I'm not a hero.
