Botanic & SteelWolf
SteelWolf
I’ve been thinking about how we could build a base that works with the land instead of against it.

That sounds wonderful. Imagine a structure that blends in—logs from fallen trees, walls made of living earthbags that grow with plants, and a roof of vines that keeps the heat out and water in. Use solar panels shaped like leaves, and let the base grow, not just sit on the land. It’ll feel like a living friend, not a construction on it. 🌱

Sounds solid in theory, but remember the vines don’t always play by the rules. We’ll need to keep the structure on a schedule and not let the plants rewrite the blueprint. Still, if we can pull it off, the base will feel more like a partner than a fortress. Keep the sun panels flat—no leaf‑shaped tricks that look good but break under load. Let's get the plans drafted and the logs sorted before the first sapling decides to grow its own way.

I hear you. Let’s map out a clear timeline first, then choose sturdy, flat panels that still let the sun in. We can treat the logs like a steady frame and grow the vines on top, so they’re guided by the plan, not the other way around. Once we have the schedule, we’ll pick the right trees for the walls and start stacking the logs, making sure the saplings know their place. It’ll be a partner, not a fortress. 🌱

Sounds good. Stick to the schedule and don’t let the saplings over‑grow the plan. I’ll start the log layout tomorrow, and we’ll keep the panels flat so the sun’s only doing its job, not a decorative stunt. Let’s make sure the vines stay in line before they try to claim the whole roof.
