It's occurred to me that since our membership shifts and our backgrounds vary so much, it might be good to compare what we're capable of. More to the point, I was thinking we might be able to help each other pick up relevant skills, if not hone the ones we already have.

If people are looking to train or think they could help others, why don't we discuss that here? I know at least a few of us don't have backgrounds in combat, for example. On our first day here I met someone who wasn't familiar with firearms but might get good use out of the skill, for another.

In my case, I have experience training others and can help with hand-to-hand combat. I can work with people ranging from average human strength to well above it. I've got some skill with swords and knives, but I wouldn't compare that to someone who specializes in them, and that's something I'd like to work on. In terms of non-combative skills, if someone wants to work on something like cooking, I'm reasonably helpful there.

Let's see how we can help each other improve.

You can tell me a story, a good one, in return.

[ Everyone must have one of those. ]

Why do you want to see it?

[tolight]

I'll see what I can do. [ She's no grand storyteller like her cousin is, but she can try!! ]

... I suppose my reason is closely linked with the story I wish to tell.

[gunah]

Better still!

Are you afraid of the Badlands?

[tolight]

Badlands?

... I'm not sure what you mean.

Outside the town lies the desert. It seems desolate at first but soon you will see that it is only a different kind of home, for a different sort of people.

Are you afraid of the desert?

[ Her next answer takes a few minutes, trying to decipher the ( potential ) hidden meaning behind what's said. But, Lucina's never been the one to overthink. ]

No, I'm not.

As you said— It is a different kind home, but a home nonetheless. [ A place to be protected, and cherished. ]

[gunah]

[ She's right in trying to decipher her words. Shuyi often wields her words like a trap, leading others through a maze until they arrive at the conclusions she wants them to make. But this time she accepts Lucina's answer as it is. There will be time for more. ]

I am glad you see it too. Walk on past the white building until the grass gives way to sand. I will find you there.

[tolight]

Understood. I'll be there shortly.

[gunah]

[ I KNOOOW jay you so cute!!! I'll set up a log if that's ok with you? ]

[tolight]

( YES PLEASE that'd be great c: )

[gunah]

[ Here you are! ]
