  1. Crowe walked over to some of the other people who had made their way to the tower. "Has anyone here seen or heard of those people with the red banners?" He didn't spend very much time on Midway, maybe they belonged to a local war lord.
  2. "I'm good with pretty much anything," he said. Crow pulled out his axe from where it had been slung across his back. He disliked pulling out weapons in large crowds of people. It usually caused a stir. But at the moment everyone was already pretty scared so it was probably fine. The bell tower was taller then he expected. From here he could easily see tropes bearing a red banner of some sort. He didn't recognize it.
  3. "Oh, uh, thanks," Bennu said. Did his breath smell bad? He nervously put the peppermint in his mouth. "My name is Bennu Caspinson, I'm an astrobiologist. Fetu said we would be working together."
  4. "Whoever they are," he said catching up with her, "They don't seem very friendly." He scanned the crowd. "Hey, do you see your boss anywhere?"
  5. Bennu tried not to think about how high they were as he climbed out of his seat. He also ignored his slight nausea. Shia was already introducing herself to another group of people so he wandered around looking for Dr. Frialio. It would be rude not to introduce himself He walked over to a group of gentlemen having a conversation. "Would any of you be Dr. Frialio?" He asked. @The Last Fæ
  6. "Okay," Crowe said. He tapped his mug on the edge of the table, idly wondering if her boss was already in the tavern's crowd somewhere. "My name's Crowe, by the-" he had started to say when he heard the war horn. He was standing in an instant, watching the battle. "I think we should get moving"
  7. "Well alrighty then!" Crow said, "Where are we going?"
  8. "So . . . we're treasure hunting?" he asked.
  9. "I've done both kinds in the past," Crow said, "As for pricing, I'll need to know what I'm doing first, as I'm sure you can imagine, the harder the job the bigger the bill."
  10. "That's right!" He said enthusiastically. He wasn't sure who this person was, but if he could convince her to pay the tab by the end of the conversation, he didn't mind. "Are you in the market for a guy who's good at hitting things?"
  11. Crow sat at a table outside the tavern. He was waiting for something interesting to happen. He watched as large crowds of people traveled up and down the busy street. Something interesting was going to happen. He could feel it in his toes- and they were very good at sensing this sort of thing.
  12. Shia entered the elevator, but Bennu strayed behind still nervous about it all. He noticed someone having difficulty walking and decided to see if there was something he could do. "Would you like some help?" He offered.

    jm's art(?)

    Happy Thursday to everyone, even if its not Thursday where you are. So, I thought I would share this painting I did in my art class. I took a picture of it because I might not be able to keep the physical version. My teacher is going to try to submit it to a local art auction for high school level art. My teacher isn't sure if he can get it submitted in time, but I'm honored that he would choose one of my paintings. Even if it doesn't get into the auction or if it doesn't do well in the auction, it's a huge compliment to even be given the opportunity, you know? I think it's a tad wonky as a whole, but considering it's one of the first times I've used watercolor for a piece like this I think it's pretty good. Here's the reference photo I used:
  14. I really like that they included the temple recommend interview questions in the pamphlet for each section (I can't remember if they were in the old one). It really helps me figure how a decision will effect me and how it will make me feel in god's presence. I think its nice to be able to review and ponder them.
  15. Paul riding the sandworm looked so coool aaaaaaaaaaaaa I am very excited lol
  16. "Alright then," Bennu said, standing. He was gathering his coat and briefcase when Shia joined entered the waiting room. She was always perfectly on time, never late, never early. They both headed over to the elevator, and Bennu tried to figure out who Dr. Frialio was.
  17. "Oh, yes," Bennu said, startled out of his thoughts. "My wife Shia is coming, she was handling our luggage, she should be here soon." "Do you know who would be over me in the biology department? I should Introduce before we get going." He didn't want to seem rude.
  18. "That's fascinating!" Bennu said, his nervousness melted away as he considered what Makaula said. He played with the clasp of his briefcase as he lost himself in his thoughts.
  19. "Its nice to meet you, both of you," Bennu said, sitting down in a nearby chair to wait for Shia. "I haven't been able to get the time to study the recent data from Namaka, do you know what life on the surface might be like?" He asked Makaula.
  20. "My name is Bennu Caspinson, I'm an Astrobiologist who will be studying life on Namaka," He said enthusiastically.
  21. Bennu turned and wandered into the waiting room, doubling checking the sign to make sure he was in the right place. The hand he held his briefcase with was sweating slightly. People travel safely through space all the time he reminded himself. And yet he had a hard time banishing memories of space ship crashes he had seen on the news. His wife Shia was getting their luggage in the right place, she had sent him ahead to the waiting room. At least she wasn't nervous. Then Bennu saw her, Fetu Malamalama in the flesh. He recognized her from pictures he had seen when signing up. With strong starshaping and a brilliant mind, Fetu was somewhat of a legend among Bennu and his coworkers. And now he actually had the chance to meet her. He noticed another man carrying a flask as he approached. Did they let you take alcohol on the Beanstalk? They didn't allow it on airplanes. "Dr. Malamalama," He said walking up to her and trying to seem friendly, "Its an honor to meet you!" @The Bookwyrm
