Nine Truffula Trees

[The journal can pick up a lot of clanging and banging today, why? Because the Once-ler’s got his inventing groove on. York asked for a duplicate of his wagon-cottage-mahome and well, he’s happy to deliver. After all, it’s something he can do inside the safe confines of his room...with the the ‘mahome’ part at least. The rest? Well that may require leaving his safe haven, but sometimes you have to make sacrifices for science. He also appears to be singing while he works]

♫ We could while away the hours
Da da de da le da dedo
There would be lots and lots of flowers
And you could sit on a gazebo ♫

...It still doesn’t sound right.

[Not noticing his journal was open for that, he wanders over to his drawing board where it’s popped up to dictate into it]

Okay. Opinion time. When you're camping out, what's more important to you:
A: Having a working shower
or
B: Having a skylight

...This filter could go wrong in about ten million ways but that’s what you get for having an un-unique name.

Someone mentioned you had some scrap metal laying around your TARDIS. You using it for anything?

[Gosh, what is that handsome devil making now?]

[ino]

[ ... humoring him with that filter. because this post is making her laugh]

What are you working on, exactly?

[whichwayyoulean]

[Oh wow, the filter worked, even on Ino. Today is a great day]

Only something that'll make everyone's expeditions a whole lot easier.

[wilder]

...Why would you need a skylight when you're outside, dude?

[whichwayyoulean]

To look up at the night stars when you're warm in your bed. Isn't it obvious?

[Gosh what is that handsome devil making now?]

[thehangedrose]

[WHAT IS EVEN WITH THAT FILTER okay Garry is not going to ask at all because...really, why do you even do that, it makes no sense. 8|]

A working shower? I mean, a skylight would be nice and all, but I don't want to really wake up in the morning and have something like, I don't know, half the wildlife in the area staring at me while I sleep.

...Though honestly, I've never really camped at all, so maybe my answer doesn't count.

Nice song, by the way! Though the gazebo part is a little off, in my opinion.

[whichwayyoulean]

[It's the best filter]

Oh trust me, they do that. And if they can get inside the tent at all, they'll eat all your food. [Damit Lou, why'd you eat all the butter? WHY]

It's an opinion, so it still counts.

Yeah, it's not an easy word to rhyme with. It still needs some work.

[heal_theworld]

...why would you need a working shower or a skylight? [Does not compute, Once-ler.]

[whichwayyoulean]

Well, unless you take a dive in personal hygiene while you're camping out, it's kind of important.

[cantacquityou]

A 'Whatsmahoozit'...

[whichwayyoulean]

Yes. A Whatsmahoozit.

[3_butterflies]

A shower, I think...? Is that the right answer?

[whichwayyoulean]

There is no right answer. It's whichever you're prefer. [Fluttershy stop being so adorable]

[waterproofed]

Totally the skylight. [and he is not using that filter that's just weird]

[whichwayyoulean]

[Percy you loser it's an awesome filter]

You're outnumbered, nice to know someone cares about the beauty around them.

[ninjainviolet]

[Sorry, she's not using that filter. It reminds her of someone.]

A shower. Definitely. I can always look at the sky while walking, but I can't always have a shower.

[It'll be "peek-proof", right?]

[whichwayyoulean]

[Spoilsport :(]

You people really like your hygiene. Another vote for shower it is.

[Of course B)]

Gosh, what is that handsome devil making now?

[mom_to_us_all]

None!

[Does she get that ... Whatsaddfjlsdit?]

By the way, you have a nice voice.

[whichwayyoulean]

[Awww yes, Ammy you are epic]

None? What would you want in the space instead?

[For that compliment, she gets TWO] Why thank you. I like to think so too.

Gosh what are you making now, I don't find you handsome sorry

[thebutz]

Hey man, I didn't know you sing! Not bad!

Also, A for sure, there's no question really. If I want light I can go outside. ...what are you making anyway? And what the heck is a whatsamahoozit, why do you make up such weird names for your stuff?

minus sixty friends points for ruining the filter

[whichwayyoulean]

Thanks, I've been doing it since I was a kid. [Even if no one was supposed to hear that :|]

And here come the endless questions.

I'm making a wagon-cottage-mahome for the people that are going on the expedition. Let them travel in a little more comfort. And I haven't decided what a whatsamahoozit is yet, but it'll be awesome.

...And words like these are pretty normal where I come from so there.

Gosh, what is that... handsome devil... making now?

[takethat]

...I can't believe I just wrote that, but... a skylight.

[whichwayyoulean]

Awww good for you. Making an awkward filter.

Two votes for skylight. Seems people still really want hygiene over nice views.

placeholder; filter because come on I had to

[atrophied]

Yes. I use it to decorate my TARDIS.

filter forever awww yes

[whichwayyoulean]

[No House get out]

And this is exactly what I mean. You go around calling yourself 'Doctor' and pretty much anyone with the title can see your stuff. It's a security risk just waiting to happen.

Once-ler

[cricketycricket]

It could only go wrong if any of my other regenerations were here, trust me. It's worked just fine for three years.

But yes, I've plenty of materials ... what're you building?

Doc

[whichwayyoulean]

Yeah? Doctor House disagrees.

I'm making a wagon-cottage-mahome for the people going on the expedition. It's light and easy to transport, but it unfolds to make a pretty decent-sized living space, too. I figured it'd be useful.
