Hoo boy alright.

Yvette will just, uh, go warn people so no one does anything stupid like shoot at him or anything. She doesn't think they will, but humans. She really wants this to work and will take steps to lessen all involved risks, even the minor ones!!!

Uh, no, they were not going to shoot the genocidal telekinetic knife man while he's transporting plants into place. They could hit the plants. Give them some credit.

.... that is not.... the most reassuring thing that she could have been told, but. It's probably good enough. She relays this to Nai and gives the go-ahead for him to move plants. Personally. With telekinesis.

No, no, that's pretty reassuring, actually, in Nai's experience humans aren't really very good at all at not hurting the people who are directly helping them and who have saved their lives multiple times.

...in... Nai's experience? Like personally??

Yes.

Care to share with the class?

No.

(Maybe later.)

Nai cares a lot about keeping the location of his tunnels a secret though so he kicks up a ton of sand and wind for his whole range around it, creating an artificial sandstorm. If it had been just him he wouldn't have bothered but with several plants coming with he wants to make sure things are sufficiently hidden.

(...also he has a little bit of a dramatic flair.)

(Nowhere near as much as Zash does though.)

(Keep telling yourself that bub.)

And so a sandstorm appears in the distance and from it emerges the floating figure, arms crossed in the air, trailed by the plants inside their tanks, all moving in silent unison.

Nobody shoots at him! Amazing.

Yvette finds the dramatic flair quite charming, and also appealing on other axes because. ... She has a type, okay. She has accepted this. Anyway she'll go hang out in the plant factory and see to getting everyone properly plugged in and set up.

The town looks very different than it did when Nai last, uh, "visited". A lot less like a bunch of scrap metal cobbled together in the vague shape of habitation, a lot more like something purposefully and competently (if somewhat hastily) built. The layout isn't the most intuitive, for defensibility reasons, but it's sensible at what it is.

...huh. He kind of... appreciates this? He's not sure why.

Anywho, the main attraction is still where it was and Nai can just float over there and bring the plants in one by one to get them installed.

The plants are hooked up without issue, and begin generating accordingly. The return of the water supply is the most dramatic, and obvious. While Jeneora doesn’t (currently) have a fully functioning plumbing system to all the buildings in various states of construction or repair, it does have a centralized location from which everyone is accustomed to acquiring water.

The fact that it’s the diner means that the ensuing party doesn’t have to go anywhere. Clean water!! Drinking water and showers and soon they’ll get the good food, too!

...hey can Nai make food for these people?

...but they hate him.

Well, yeah, they do, but they'd probably still accept. If nothing else, it's better than the rations, they're in a good mood, and Zash will ask beforehand.

Food is complicated.

Their sisters can show him the ropes!

Fine. He'll make food. He guesses.
