[digger]

[Possessed by the earth spirit, but to a lesser degree than most, Simon is... well, underground. He's back to digging his tunnels around the village, popping up in random locations throughout to create a bit of his own custom irrigation, ie. digging holes everywhere and generally making a big mess. But he seems so content as he does it, and he doesn't even notice the size of his wings.

Feel free to notice him causing chaos in your gardens, though he might be a little distracted \o]

Told you?

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh. It wants to stay healthy but it needs more water.

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Uh... and how does digging help?

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

[Sigh. Oh Mister Senel, you must be educated.]

If the tunnels hit the river, all the water will come through them and make the water come up. That's how it works. ...I think.

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

It seems like it'd wash the dirt away and make a whole bunch of collapsed tunnels running under everybody's houses.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Nuh-uh! The tunnels won't collapse. [He seems pretty determined about that.]

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

You're sure. [He doesn't really see how they wouldn't unless Simon's putting in a lot of supports. The soil's not super hard.]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh! Totally sure! [Okay maybe not so sure.] ...Well, they'll probably sort of collapse. I mean, nobody can use them again after this. But they won't hurt anybody or wreck the houses...

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

As long as you don't get hurt...

[meanwhile, Sophie has gotten tired of being ignored by both people near her and starts to fuss a little.]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

N-no... I won't be in them. [No way he's doing that again.

...Oh hey, a distraction!]

S-Sophie? Is that Sophie?

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we were going out. [is trying to shush her now]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Can I talk to her?

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

Sure. [don't get dirt all over her though, kid]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

[But dirt is a good thing, Senel, it's nice and healthy. :c]

Hi Sophie! Long time no see!

[alliance-marine.livejournal.com]

[He just gave her a bath. :c

Sophie gurgles at him.] I guess she means hello.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Probably! [Oh fine, be that way. He'll just wave.] She must be getting big, huh? Can she walk yet?
