[It was a little disheartening to see all the time and work he had put into his backyard gardens get destroyed in the flood. But when you have nothing but time and are too young to work any sort of job you find yourself a lot more dedicated to projects like this.

Fai felt like he'd waited long enough for the soil to recover and had long since pulled up all of the dead plants. The potted members of the herb garden- the only survivors, and only thanks to his sylladex- were sitting on the porch along with the slew of sprouts, flowers and seeds he'll need to plant. If you happen to walk by Phanga 13 at any time today he'll be out there working to get his favorite place back to the way it should be.]

[Fai nods, moving the old dirt into his buckets with one of the trowels Sola brought with him. He already had one that Johnny had given him last Christmas but it seemed like a good gesture to use that one instead.]

Yeah, that's all I had to do the first time. I didn't know the salt could keep things from growing until I read about it, but at least I found out before I tried to replant everything. I just hope it grows okay once we're done.

I think it makes the plants too thirsty, like when you eat too many french fries or something. We'll make sure there's no salt though! Then the garden will grow and grow and be awesome. I bet we'll get lots of bees and bugs and stuff! Maybe even butterflies.

[He keeps digging as he talks, pleased at the idea of all the bug visitors.]

[faiofmisfortune]

That could be what it is.

[Fai's not terribly fond of insects, but he knows that butterflies and bees can be good for the environment and the rest of his garden. Not to mention he remembers how happy Sola had sounded when he talked about the bee garden he'd helped make before. He wanted everyone in the house to enjoy this place. Carefully now he carries the old dirt to a pile near the fence's gate so that it can be taken away elsewhere later.]

I want it to be awesome too. Then Yuui can use the food and herbs again when he cooks.

[replicatedcourage]

That'd be good! It's a lot closer than going to the store.

[He finishes the row against the fence and starts to dig up the second, methodically turning the dirt and putting the contaminated soil aside so it can be removed.]
