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.

I'd argue that she's beautiful because she exists.

[ yea........... he's that guy ]

Of all the records and content I had with me, it just so happened to be a bunch of images of women like her. I don't know, after the shit I saw, it's refreshing to remember there's people like her in the world.

[ Miles . . . ]

What shit have you seen, Miles, to make you appreciate all women?
upshur: (something oily and dark.)

[ shuyi........ ]

Bad shit. You know, just - really bad.
Makes me glad to be around a team made of weirdos that are DECENT, honestly.
gunah: (& / tell me)

And why did you have to witness such things?
upshur: (my head is bloody.)

[personal profile] upshur 2016-10-28 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Honestly, I don't know. The whole thing was entirely out of my control.

I was just doing my job.

Like pawns in a game neither of us truly understands.
upshur: (no direct path.)

[personal profile] upshur 2016-10-28 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, just like that. Pawns in some sick game.

Sounds like you're familiar with the feeling?
gunah: (+ / okay)

[personal profile] gunah 2016-10-29 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I am.

A friend once said to me that it is only natural to use and be used by others. Do you agree?
upshur: (before i sleep.)

I think that sometimes, you really can't avoid it. And that it's not done maliciously.

Not by most people, I mean. There's always the sickos.
gunah: (& / message)

[personal profile] gunah 2016-11-01 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
The sickos.

Are you free of them here, now?
