I doubt it. If you take your eyes off of them for even a second, they'll try to do the least amount of work possible.
Ah! Yes, that's mine. They call this the "leisure" district, so all kinds of things meant for entertainment and fun were here. Drinking, too, if that's your thing. [ a conspiratorial grin at that. ] They've made a lot of headway already, so give it a few weeks, and it may be ready to reopen.
Technically, I'm underage, but I won't tell if you don't. [WILL WHY. although, honestly, he deserves a drink after going straight from tartarus to a murdergame.] It'll be pretty neat to take a look around once it's all done.
Well, there's a rock band rehearsing for a show later this week! And then I think a troupe is coming to rehearse a musical starting next week. We do all kinds of shows here.
[both performances sound interesting. he takes after his father more in healing than in music, but rock bands and musicals are still neat enough for him to want to take a look - as long as it doens't conflict with anything else they have to be doing.]
That makes sense. Do you know if we're gonna be able to see the rankings pretty regularly? That'd help us figure out if we're going in the right direction for a tie...
If they do post rankings, I don't think it will take that long, with the competition only lasting until the festival. Maybe wait a week or two and see? If nothing happens, we could always see if the mayor has some information on the rankings.
[ they cross their arms, frowning slightly at that suggestion. ]
Now that would be a lot more difficult. Not impossible, maybe, but we can't guarantee that when we don't even know what the metric is for the rankings.

[ shrugs. ]
They'll probably be fine. They slack off just as much as anyone else would, now and then.

[it's probably okay. have the prinnies not unionized??]
What kind of stuff is gonna be over here once it's all rebuilt? I saw a theater, earlier?

Come back when it's ready. Until then, we have the theater.

You should probably know, then - I'm gonna be aiming for a tie between your team and mine.
no subject
For you and Nico, right? [ they nod approvingly. ] I understand. As long as you're both ready for the challenge.
no subject
That's right. We've made it through tons of challenges together - we're gonna make it through this one, too.
no subject
To my knowledge, the points will be based on what all of you do, rather than us. But I'll lend a hand where I'm able.

Don't forget to tell Aquamarine Fox about your plan. They deserve to know, too.

...I wonder if coordinating a tie between all eight of our teams is an option if we can't find another way.
