WHO: Sheep
WHERE: Pasture
WHEN: Evening 42 - Morning 43

[IT'S NIGHTTIME AGAIN SHEEPIES AND THAT COMES WITH ANOTHER BITTER COLD SNAP.

But man did you know?? Heating and cooling and heating and cooling rapidly is really bad for pipes??

Shepherds - Roll 1d10!! If 5 or lower, congrats, SOME PIPES BURST IN YOUR BARN. Enjoy your flooding! If 6 or higher, you are spared.

Additionally, if your pipes burst, roll ANOTHER 1d10! If 5 or lower, congrats, all your food storage has been soaked and is now inedible! This is fine. If higher than 5, only a 4th of it is soaked.

OTHERWISE, HOW YALL DOING!]

Here? Probably, believe it or not. Something something "it's the thought that counts".

Then surely other, less physical thoughts might work instead, for people like me who are less blessed in that department.

Whatever comes easiest to you, really. Might as well be prepared for this kind of thing happening. I hate to be a downer, but this doesn't seem like a one-off event. All our food stores got drenched.

[wants_the_phd]

ALL of them? Did Clover have a lot?

[catposting]

Yeah. They'd been working hard to stock up. Lyra's really upset about it.

[ she's crying on the lawn somewhere ]

[...well shit. that sucks, actually.]

Do you already have a plan for what you'll do about it, or is it still too soon?

[catposting]

Quest for insulation, for one. As for supplies... a few people have already offered help. And we're planning on doing our own hunting while we still can.

I'm all ears if you have suggestions, though.

[hmmm... she ponders...]

I wonder if the cafeteria will continue to operate into the winter...

If there of members of Clover who can get by on that kind of roughage, you might be able to supplement your diets that way...

[catposting]

I'll ask. They seem to stick to regular human diets for the most part.

[wants_the_phd]

What about you?

[catposting]

[ shrugs ]

I'm not picky. Fruit's fine.

[wants_the_phd]

It's a good thing the fruit trees are still producing, but it might not be a bad idea to stock up, just in case.

[catposting]

Planning on it.

Though I can live off cheap coffee if it comes down to it.

[wants_the_phd]

Do you not need to eat?

[catposting]

I don't need to, but I should.

[wants_the_phd]

Even when there's no shinsu here? Damn, that's a handy trick for making it through lean times...

[catposting]

I shouldn't exist here without shinsu, remember?
