"Are we sure we should leave my sister alone with just Camara and Aethisia? I have some faith in Cici keeping her focused on the work at hand - despite being a lustful Bullkin, she is really work oriented - but I don't have faith in her not wasting time by flirting and being otherwise unproductive and incorrigible!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Renna sat on the small wall I had made and kept me company as I got to work building an extension of the house meant for guests; I wanted to keep the basement off limits to anyone but family, which meant I needed some more housing for those that weren't there just yet.
The question was how I was going to get this done without shocking our guests by the sudden appearance of a new part of the home, and the answer was thankfully rather simple; just build it out of sight since they hadn't seen the inside of the home in its entirety.
They hadn't seen the entire house inside or outside, so I wanted to get this new addition to the house made in as little time as possible so that I could make it seem like it had always been here, and to do so I needed to match all the materials to the original design again, dig out the foundation, and ensure I wasn't being too noisy either.
It was also simpler than it sounded, and not as much hard work either despite me digging a shovel into the ground and scooping out a large chunk of dirt; it was good work that I enjoyed doing, which made me realize that if we were far enough away from civilization...
Then I began to construct the walls to the same specifications that the actual house was made to, prompting Renna to stand up and watch in awe as I did in a few minutes what would take a skilled team a day or so to do.
As I worked I replied "A guest house, Renna. Fully furnished and capable of housing at least two sets of guests comfortably and privately; four if they don't mind sharing space. Simple spaces though; two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchenette, storage for both rooms, and a common room. Identical upstairs and downstairs, with individual porches on either side to enjoy the fresh air."
The red head just gave me a fascinated stare as I began to lay the floor plan right in front of her, using short, one foot tall walls to show her the rooms before I proceeded with enclosing this initial space.
"This is just... I mean, seriously, this is incredible Astra! You can work so quickly and create such a perfect house in not even an hour! Others set up tents this large in this amount of time, and you have a fully functioning house that could withstand some serious weather conditions!"
I grinned back at her as I finished with the 'roof', which was constructed to support the weight of the second floor as I used crisscrossing beams to distribute the pressure as evenly as possible, alongside a few different supports that connected to the floor below; not that I needed to worry since these structures apparently defied physics, but I needed it to look the part too.
"And the best part is, Renna, I could tear this down and move it to wherever I need to in less time~! So we could go to an area, have a house there one day, and then act like it never existed the day after~! And I haven't even gotten to experiment with the vastness of my abilities just yet, not in the ways I want to~!"
