The Linear Thread

[Mystic Syn she/her]

Q sighed softly, placing the rain cap on the ground beside her tent. She rubbed the bridge of her nose before heading over to where Melody had been setting up. Q scanned the mess of both poles and tent. "Let me guess," she started, "'Peregrino' didn't give you any instructions on how to set one up."

[Channelknight Fadran]

"I've set up a tent before. Maybe." Ellis started setting up poles and sliding them through the tent sleeves.

[Condensation she/her]

"No. There's a tag on the side that says they're sold separately. I could barely read it."

[Mystic Syn she/her]

"Thanks, Ellis," she said sarcastically. "Maybe having set up a tent before is definitely going to help us."

She shook her head, smirking slightly. "That's him. He hasn't changed a bit since I've last saw him." Q looked again at the mess of a tent, pursing her lips. "You want to separate the poles from the actual tent fabric, then we'll get started, but I see that you're already on top of that."

Hehe, he already did that

Hehe, I'm an idiot for not reading everything.

[Condensation she/her]

"Good to know." Melody pulled out a piece of paper. "I'm writing this down for in the future."

[Channelknight Fadran]

One timeskip later, Ellis had a large tent set up for all of them. "Done!"

[Condensation she/her]

Aw. I thought that would be fun.

"Awesome!" Melody put away her paper, now covered in steps and tips.

"Hmm," Q said, nodding. "That usually takes a montage, but it appears that a flipwipe would do."

[Condensation she/her]

"What the heck are you guys talking about?"

"It's a long story. What do you wanna do next?"

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Gerald looked at the pile of stuff and wondered what to do with it all.

"I don't know. Certainly no more swordcraft."

[Mystic Syn she/her]

"Swordplay is overrated." Q looked down at the pile of stuff, and kicked a rock towards it. "What about that stuff?"

Pardon me and my idiotness, but what time is it in the rp?

[Condensation she/her]

Eh... no idea. Probably late afternoon to evening.

"We got it out of the octopus's arm."

[Mystic Syn she/her]

"Nothing fazes me anymore," she said, almost to herself. "I'm assuming that no one cared to bring some sort of backpack or satchel with them to carry this?"

[Condensation she/her]

"No, but we can always put them back in the arm."

[Mystic Syn she/her]

Q pursed her lips. "True. Not sure if Gerald would appreciate it, but we'll find out in a second either once he notices I'm talking about him, or we've had some sort of dinner."

[xinoehp512 he/him]

"That makes sense," said Gerald, picking up the anaconda skeleton and putting it back in the arm. "Hopefully we don't run into an immediate need for an anaconda skeleton."

"If we do, we can always get it back out."

[Mystic Syn she/her]

"I would be deeply concerned, but not surprised if we do."

[Condensation she/her]

"Shh, you'll jinx us!"

[Mystic Syn she/her]

Q shrugged. "'Expect the unexpected, or you'll end up dead in a ditch,' as my... former superior would say."

[Condensation she/her]

"You can think it, just don't say it!" Melody glared at Q, then broke into a laugh. "I'm just kidding!"
