Okay, let’s begin! This is an important message out for everyone to hear. Please listen up! This could be a good way to practice this new way of communication for those not used to it yet!

[Speaks up the resident ex-telepath and environmental sensor of her world. She has been listening to a lot of the new voices in the area. No worries she has been ignoring those revealing secrets or daydreams or what have you.]

My name is Nike. I’ve been in this adventure to other worlds for a good while now. I bet there’s a lot of questions and concerns many of you have. The whole thing can be pretty bewildering for those not used to world-hopping or living in areas that aren’t as natural as this one. That’s why we’re gonna try to help everyone as best as we can. Like securing everyone’s next meals since, well, we can’t expect our hosts to always feed us or to ration the food stuff they first give to you since it’s difficult to determine how long we’ll be here for. Um, I think our resident leader is here too. Actually, he’s next to me right now. Do you wanna take the reins?

[There is a choking noise at 'resident leader'. Jay recovers quickly enough, though. No promises about not listening to your revealing secrets.]

Right. I've talked to a few of you about this already, but what we'd like to do is set up groups for hunting, fishing, and scavenging or gathering. We're looking for people who have experience with those skills and are willing to teach them to others--or people who want to learn from their fellow coven members. Those of you with particular expertise may be asked to lead a group.

That’s right! This is all a volunteer service as well. We know not everyone is cut out to be a teacher or leader, so we’re asking for those with these skills to speak up to help form a group to specialize in these specific areas. The more people we have, the easier it’ll be to gather enough food for everyone in the coven. We understand there are those that don’t have any survival skills and many of you are new -- we want to help you to better adjust to your situation before having you join or do anything. Our goal is basically to help everyone remain healthy.


[While helping create a sense of unity which all is pretty much hinted.]

Also, we kinda want to figure out the current population of our members are too. Gotta know the size to figure out what would be a fair amount of resources to gather and share. Jay is in charge of that area. Since he’s been doing that stuff from the very beginning. Let him know if you don’t have any survival skills and/or if there’s an area you wish to learn. All those with any of the survival skills we’ve already mentioned that would like to volunteer, let me know! From there we’ll try to organize all of the data and have the group leaders give out the rest of the details.

[What else should she add before signing off?]

Oh, yeah, if you have any questions, then let us know here. Thanks!

(OOC: If you want your character to join on this without threading anything up, then please use this for sign ups.)

I'd like to help! I'm not experienced in hunting or fishing but my magic is pretty useful for catching small animals. If you need me to learn normal ways of finding food I can do that too!

[He sounds pretty enthusiastic to offer help because he thinks organizing to find food like this is a great idea.]

What's your power?

[Someone's making a list.]
neatlytuned: (/(・ ᆺ ・)\)

[personal profile] neatlytuned 2017-10-09 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
It's controlling animals! I already sometimes catch fish when Genette needs me to so being part of an organized group for it won't a big deal.
rebells: (handbells)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
That's an interesting power. Does it only work on small animals? Have you tried it on the boars here, for example?
neatlytuned: (/(oᆺò)\)

[personal profile] neatlytuned 2017-10-09 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
I've tried only once and it didn't really work. Not sure if it's because I need more practice but I haven't tried again.

[Boars can be scary, okay and he's only a simple idol.]
rebells: (hereinbelow)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
If you wanted to try again, I could probably arrange to have some combatants accompany you, just in case . . . either way, however, I'm sure you'd do well in the fishing group. Thank you for volunteering.
neatlytuned: (⌒(・ᆺ・)⌒)

[personal profile] neatlytuned 2017-10-09 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! If you can have someone help me then I don't mind trying again. And no problem! We're all stuck here together so I need to do my part to help out.
rebells: smile, amused (belle)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Practical of you.

I'm Jay, by the way. What's your name? You seem to be adjusting to these circumstances well.
neatlytuned: (/(oᆺò)\)

[personal profile] neatlytuned 2017-10-09 02:54 am (UTC)(link)
I'm Nazuna. Sitting around moping about what happened isn't useful for anyone so I don't want to do that. Besides, I've been here for about a month already.

[It takes Elle a good few moments to digest this broadcast, and while some of the specifics elude her, she does get the gist about needing people to help with food... and wait, what was that about lessons...?]

I wanna help, but I'm still learning a lot of things...

[She pauses, an idea coming to mind.]

Do you need a taste tester? Daddy says I'm the best taste taster he's ever had!

[He's extremely biased and doesn't have a wide sample size to begin with, but Elle doesn't have to know that.]

Sorey and I are pretty good at hunting and fishing; we know what to do with herbs, too, gathering and processing, but the ones at home don't always correspond to the ones here.

More to the point, we found a place not too far from the camp that looks like it can be used pretty well for farming, if you want to direct people there...? There's some stands of wheat growing there, and space for more food plants.
imsorey: (Gonna have a real good time)

[personal profile] imsorey 2017-10-09 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
[helpfully chiming in]

Hi Nike, hi Jay! If you need us to show you exactly where the spot is we can. I don't know much about farming, but there's enough space that we could probably plant a variety of different things there as long as we have the seeds for it. We can probably set aside some space for more plants if we get them from other worlds too.
rebells: (antebellum)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Wheat sounds like it could be useful . . . we could probably have 9S or someone make a hand mill, at least.

Yes, if you could show us where it is later that would be great--I don't know much about farming myself, but I know a few people who would want to hear about a place like that.

[ Even if it was... a lot of "talking" in his head, here is one way to practice. Besides, he's still stuck on something.

also he has no survival skills, so.. . ... . ]


I have a question.

In your time here, have you been given any reason to doubt the assertion that Qri's existence is vital to the sanctity of all universes?
rebells: side view, talking, considering (umbelliferous)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[A pause.]

We do need a taste-tester, but not the usual kind . . . it's because these plants and animals are strange to us, and some of them may not actually be edible. So we need someone to try them out first, to make sure no one gets sick.

[He's loathe to give that responsibility to a little girl, but.]
rebells: (bibelot)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I haven't been given any particular reason to doubt or to believe that assertion.

[He'd say more, but he tends not to shittalk over telepathy--a precaution, you understand.]
oneandmikleonly: (oh; poor Atlas.)

[personal profile] oneandmikleonly 2017-10-09 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm. It's fairly large, the trail's just overgrown -- we can cut it back. Have you had many bites yet, from others with the necessary skills?
rebells: (antebellum)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
It's good to meet you, then, Nazuna. You're right that being upset won't do us much good in the long run, although I can hardly blame anyone who had trouble adjusting when they first arrived.

[ Understandable. Qri gave them this, too. Still--frustrating. He'll reroute. ]

Have you learned anything more than Genette wrote?
rebells: irritated, bored (belemnite)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
A little. Not much.

We're on the beach. Would you like to come and discuss this in person?
reckoner: (128. ᴏғ ɴᴏ ʀᴇᴛᴜʀɴ)

[personal profile] reckoner 2017-10-09 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Please.

[ Yeah, he's on his way even as he answers. ]
rebells: (antebellum)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[He is indeed sitting on the beach when Gaelio approaches, probably talking to Nike, although he gets up when he sees the unfamiliar figure and walks towards him, waving.]

Were you the one asking about Qri?
rebells: side view, incredulous (disbelieving)

[personal profile] rebells 2017-10-09 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
A few, and I know of some other people I can ask. I do hope more people come forward, however.

[ The beach isn't so large or so occupied as to allow a mistake. Gaelio nods at the pair, then focuses on the one who stood. ]

Yes. I'm -- Gaelio. Bauduin.

[ Never mind the weird pause. Introductions don't roll off the tongue like they used to. And it isn't as though that name means anything here. Might as well have resumed Vidar, but without the mask, having only just reclaimed Gaelio... anyway. Qri. ]

You're Jay?
