I suppose this is more convenient than going door to door.

It occurs to me that if we're to be spending more time here, it would help to have a map of sorts. I don't suppose anyone here is a cartographer--?

That doesn't seem terribly likely, but I thought I'd ask.

At any rate, I thought we might try mapping the "coastline," for a start. A small group primarily composed of combatants would be best for that. Is anyone interested? You can find me in the purple shack farthest from the mansion, if you'd like to discuss this in person. Ask for Jay.

Oh, and if you've already gone off exploring on your own--as I'm sure many of you have--I'd be interested to know what you've found. Send me a message?

((Let me know via PM or Plurk (prospit) if you'd like your character to be part of the mapping group?))

. . . You'll have to be more specific. What exactly is a refrigerator?

[probablynoteren]

Uh... [is this another of those oddly dressed people who's never heard of the concept of refrigeration...... luckily he's already more or less explained this twice by now] They're boxes, for keeping food cool. So they come with food.

[He's not even going to try to get into the specifics, he's not qualified to teach Fridge 101, oops.]

[rebells]

They're boxes. For keeping food cool.

So . . . like an icebox.

[probablynoteren]

Yes, mostly. They're a little more complicated, for keeping food for longer.

[rebells]

I'd ask how, but I assume you don't know.

[probablynoteren]

How they keep food cool...?

[Or how he's making them appear?]

Using electricity. So the ones I call aren't useful for very long here unless we can find some.

[Doubtful, with the state of the island, but you never know.]

[rebells]

So it needs a source of power . . . I wonder. It's possible someone's powers would be useful for that.

[How does he know exactly what electricity is but have no idea about refrigerators???? We just don't know.]

[probablynoteren]

[#fantasytechlogic

Lenka did wonder if he'd need to start explaining electricity, which would have been a whole other can of worms. It's nice to know that at least he doesn't have to explain that. Even if he's a little confused about the state of Jay's home at this point.]

I haven't met anyone with powers like that. But I wouldn't rule it out.

For now, if we can make fire, then there's no problem with most of the food.

[rebells]

And that should be easy enough, at least.

[He's definitely seen people make a fire, and even learned how himself.]

[probablynoteren]

Yeah. So I think we don't have to worry too much about provisions. My power is random, but I should be able to supply us.

[Perhaps it's the trade-off for having to play refrigerator roulette all the time, but the energy needed to summon a few refrigerators seems to be minimal. Provided he doesn't have to rapidfire them or otherwise do a lot of summoning, they'll be okay.]

[rebells]

Are the--refrigerators you summon fully stocked, then?

[probablynoteren]

Not always. But enough. Unless you're planning on bringing the whole camp.

[He'd still do his best to feed people, but he assumes it's a small group. Hopefully.]

[rebells]

No, there should be around eight of us at most. You can't control what you find in there at all?

[probablynoteren]

I can't.

[Faint emphasis on the I.]

But there's some powers I can combine with to make some things happen. I'm still trying things.
