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.

Well, I'm sort of freeloading at the moment, so the least I can do is earn someone else's keep.

[onethousen]

How'd you manage that?

[agrizzlysin]

[-Urk.]

I didn't. It's... a long story.

[Involving one of his partners throwing him into a sack and passing him off as luggage.]

[onethousen]

Maybe you can tell me while we're working? On the origami cranes or any of the other stuff.

[agrizzlysin]

Maybe.

[Boy is he glad she can't see him blushing like an idiot. It's way too embarrassing.]

[onethousen]

[ Upside, even if she had, she'd still shrug it off since she's ten and embarrassing is half of life still at this stage, before puberty makes it Really Horrible. ]

Only if you want to! But um, yeah. I look forward to meeting you in person!

[agrizzlysin]

Yeah. Same. 'Til Friday.
