[There is a new and sizable node on the Murmer.]

This is Dr. Veritas Ratio of the Crosby Hotel. You may know me better as Lortel’s helper on the Greenhouse project. I bear news regarding the latter.

[The man’s deep voice is strong, perhaps to the point of coming off as harsh. But there is an emotional undertone of excitement and satisfaction.]

Construction materials have largely been acquired. We simply need to assemble them. Assuming no mishaps during construction, the project will be a month ahead of schedule. As such, I am opening up requests for plant recreation here.

Lortel and I believe recreation of plants similar to those of your homelands is possible with careful plant cross breeding. Given the morale boost it would provide, proactive action must be taken.

[All well and good. But there must be some sort of catch most perusers must be thinking by now. Well-]

Thus I have made a form to apply for plant recreation. Required format is requester name, delivery location, plant name, growth environment, shared memories and/or description of its characteristics.

[Paperwork. Paperwork is the catch. Sleep save you all. Ignorant to his comittance of such a grave sin, the scholar continues.]

The memories are optional, however I will note that taste and appearance cannot be accurately recreated without first-hand data.

[It appears this guy has managed to invent through sheer force of will the psychic equivalent of a form box. There may be the brief sensation of a brush of approval if touched. Ignoring it after going through it gets three pinpricks of interest hidden under the feeling of Ratio’s minor irritation.]



[This is the small version of the form. Praise Lortel for saving you all from true homework.]

Psychically mark your questions, requests, off topic discussion, and commentary as such.

[Or at minimum keep the discourse in the realm of debate. He will find a way to invent banning otherwise.]

Finally, anyone who wishes to contribute to the construction process, note as such here. Once we have enough applicants, a construction time period will be decided on. During that period, if we finish ahead of schedule, I will personally contact all helpers who did not attend that day to inform them.

[As to how he will do that-]

However, for us to adequately feed those who come to assist, we will need forewarning of who will attend.

[You guessed it. Another form can be felt. Truly, the most horrific thing to exist in Manhattan, New York yet may be this man.]



[With that, the wet blanket in Kimera form known as Dr. Veritas Ratio gives one final statement-]

For organization’s sake, send those directly to Lortel or I. That is all.

[And his presence withdraws from the Murmer ‘post’, leaving an impression of satisfaction behind. What a weird guy.]
