WEEK FIVE

21 Vacationers

The weekend sure was something, wasn't it? Tempers flared, explosions burst, and some were treated to an immersive sand bath experience. Come Monday at least, things seem quieter though not in the unnatural still way—the distortions on the islands have receded sometime in the night (with some impressive firework-like booms that may have stirred your sleep, at that; and the waves seem a little higher this morning) and the various amenities on the island have been made orderly again. Though, as always, some traces remain in the landscape; the waterfall looks like it has seen better days, though it's no longer in danger of coughing up debris on your head if looked at wrong.

This week like the rest brings new locations for you to explore, on Kakapo's Nest though it seems like only one of them really fits the vacation vibe. Hope you like snow!

[ One part of this is certainly pinging him, but let's focus on something else. ]

Hmm, did you ever figure out why you collected balls of lint?

[passetemps]

I cannot say that I did... though perhaps it is simply that there is something rewarding about the snowball effect as you gather more together.

[divector]

So something like a numbers game, except tactile? I'm not sure if I'd do that with lint, but when you put it like that, I can understand the appeal. It's nice to see something grow.

[passetemps]

Yes, I suppose so.

...In any case, that collection was not part of a pursuit so much as a bit of an odd compulsion.

[ but where else was he going to keep his lint balls ]

[divector]

Hmm, what do you mean compulsion?

[ He tilts his head to the side, looking like he's quite not understanding that. ]

[passetemps]

Something I feel inclined to do without much of a conscious, rational reason for it. The explanation I gave you was simply my best theory.

[divector]

Ahh, I see. Well, as long as you do like it, why not? Enjoying the little things is pretty important. Or so I heard.
