[OPEN] Pressure wouldn't squash me and fire couldn't burn

Who: Dr. Siebren de Kuiper and You
What: Springtime shenanigans
When: Before April event
Where: Library, Downtown Hollow, Festival Green, Northwest Hollow
Warning(s): CW for hallucinations (visual, auditory) caused by a traumatic brain injury.

1. I live in the shrubbery, for that's all I crave [Library]
Guess who's now working at the library? Honestly, on some level, he thinks they just accepted his application because he offered to clean the tops of all the shelves, which is what he's doing on this fine day. Floating toward the ceiling, find your new library assistant with a cloth, swiping the dust off. Oh, he'll sweep later, but for now those with dust allergies may need to beware!

Still, if you have a question about finding something, or just want to stare at the man who gravity forgot, here's your opportunity.


2. I don't want these excitements to see me to my grave [A Bad Day]
It's a cold morning, but Siebren is up early, meandering the streets of Downtown Hollow (for values of meandering that involve floating above the cobblestones, barefoot). There's a frustrated look in his eyes, and every so often, he looks over his shoulder.

"Shut up, shut up! I don't need your opinion on the matter. And stop following me!"

There is, in fact, no one visible following him. But he's clearly very agitated by whatever he's hearing them say.


3. I can live life in vacuums for years with no drink [Telescope]
3a. Construction
Siebren's first paycheck goes partly to food, but with the rest of it, he buys a brass pipe, glass lenses shaped to exacting specifications, mirrors and other miscellaneous parts. Find him in the Festival Green on an afternoon he has off work, carefully working off a hand-drawn diagram to assemble something that he's clearly excited about.

3b. Stargaze
If Siebren knows you at all, and even more if he likes you, come a clear evening you may get a message on your sending stone, inviting you out toward Northwest Hollow, away from the streetlights of the town itself. There, a very happy scientist and his telescope await company for a good old gawking session at the moons and the planets.

Don't worry if you don't know him yet; once he's gotten the telescope working, he posts a bulletin board notice inviting anyone at all to come do the whole astronomy thing with him.


4. And put up with hardships more than you can think [Wildcard]
Find me on Discord to plot!
