Restoration by Orion, Cameron, SNORLAX
May 31st, 2007 6:34 PMOne fine day, I believe it was a yesterday, I received word that a Take Something Leave Something Box close to my work. Orion and I gathered up a modest amount of wonderful junk:
... and went off a looking and a climbing. We searched high and low, but it appeared that the box had been stolen by Manichean Cannibals, or some other fringe group.
Orion was confused.
Not to be dissuaded, we set about Restoring this wonderful task. We contacted Lowteck, who provided a new box, and horrible contents:
Orion mounted the steps again.
And Restoration was at hand!
Lowteck was pleased.
Restoration complete!
So close to work...
.. my sense of lazy adventure was stoked.
The Approach
These hallowed halls hide hilarious... stuff.
The Dome
On top of which resides a fabled box... or so we thought...
Orion's Doppleganger
Orion's Doppleganger spies on us from a bush. This is supposed to be an omen of death, but it was just an omen that the box was missing.
Stuffed Pants
We neglected to bring a bag to haul up the goods. We would not make this mistake again.
Orion's Second Climb
After finding the right stairs (Note the hanging vine!) Orion continued the search.
Orion's Climb
He prepares to get to the top.
Oh Noes!
Only to be stymied by the utter lack of a box!
Attempt the second!
Lowteck and Orion discuss the ins and outs of climbing shit.
The New Box!
Not to be discouraged, we prepare a Restoration Box!
This is the box.
This. Here. Is. The Box.

Everyone stop whatever they are tasking on right now and email poon… or we could start acting like real friends(people) and …gasp… exchange phone numbers!!!
Don't you think when they read that note…
"If you take something please leave…"
they might missenterpret it and take something and then… leave?!?!
ooh, condoms… that is a good place to leave those… real romantic up there.
Oh and Mouth rinse you are prepared… y'all should have brought a mademoiselle!
Anyways… Poon I plan to do this again… and if Eddy can't second(2nd) for me you are my second(2nd) second(2nd) so……… um … yeah¬
I am officially in love with you guys. Thank you!!! I was so upset. Thank you a million times over!
I have a feeling im going to be a bit of a sucker for most completions of this task. Theres nothing more heartwarming than seeing players coming together to help each other.
Beautiful.
Last night we made a reconnaissance mission to visit the box. It survived! (The condoms did not.) Here's our additions and subtractions:
That's fucking awesome. I love that last picture...
