Realizing a tree was missing as she looked in the morning light, she scratched her head a bit then got out the tools and put another in its place before resuming replanting a well ordered apple orchard.
Of course she had hoped to be doing this with other people, but it seems that the people who really needed the feeling of accomplishment that would come from planting trees decided they didn't want to help anymore the previous night and probably weren't awake yet this morning.
H..hi Danu.
I was tired last night and had to sleep..
I was hoping to come here today and finish it up..
I suppose i still can.. right?
"If there isn't enough of the same type, they won't pollinate properly and will have a poor fruit yield. I was going to plant 25 trees of this type, 5 rows of 5 trees each. Half the row I've already planted is peaches instead of apples, they aren't all the same type of tree."
Danu pointed out the difference in bark color between the two types.

*eagerly waddles out and finds Danu*
Hi, I'm ready to help!
"Good morning Marxon." Danu smiles, seeing that he came out to help.
She was starting the second row of trees today, 5 apple and 5 peach. The first two trees were already in place.
"Hopefully these trees stay where they were planted. Maybe I just missed one in the dark, but one of the peach trees was missing this morning when I came back to keep planting."
*Umbra wakes up, heading for the former orchard*
Oh. Hey, everyone...
*he's got some strange device that looks like a sword made from a shovel*

I heard digging last night, but who would steal a plant?
Can i help?
Can i?
Because i don't want to fuck up.
*stares at the orchard*
"Oh there you are Danatre. I was hoping you would help with this. Get a shovel from the shed, you can keep digging this hole till it is big enough to hold the tree. I'll get the next one started."
Danu was glad people were gathering round to do things together. Even seemingly trivial tasks like planting trees would help them feel useful and might reduce the risk of suicide.

*gives Danu a big hug and nuzzles her stomach*
Glad to have you around.
Good. Good.
I'm pretty sure i was about to set myself on fire and die very painfully.
Thats besides the point.
*grabs a shovel*
I'm ready.
"I'm glad to have people here with me doing this. It was starting to remind me of a world I was in after losing my own. There literally wasn't any other sentient lifeforms on the planet, I was all alone in the forest." Danu smiled, giving Marxon a hug before pacing out the distance to the next digging spot. She puts her back into the shovel, opening up a neat little hole to contain another apple tree.
"Marxon, would you mind watering last night's plantings? Its going to be warm today, I dont' want them to wilt."

Hey do you have a minute?
*blushes*
I have something, to... tell you.
*clears his throat*
I kinda....
*looks away*
Have a crush, on... you.
*extreme shyness being displayed by Marx, turning to the side and staring down at his hands*
No problem.. i guess.
*sighs*
I'm so lonely.. i wish i had others..
Even if they were my fragments..
I swear i am so close to ending it though.. even if it releases the fragments..
*begins to dig*

Hey, no problem. I'm glad to be helping.
*despite how impractical the shovel-sword looks, it's very good at digging holes- most of the ones that need to be dug are already there*
Woo!
I.I'm done with the hole you needed Danu..
What now?
