    "Sure. We should wake Sleeper up first, though. Or I guess we could let him sleep." Nick finds a puddle to stand in, the suit soaking up the water.

    "Gemini? Are you ok? Can somebody check if I win?"

    "I'd think if we do that, they'd decided we're demons or something. And you might be confident, but in the movie, a bunch of little bear people with spears took down an entire stormtrooper platoon, including several walkers." "Yeah. I can see that. I think either you or I should do the initial introduction. You because you're the closest to these people, or me because I know the whole 'we come in peace. I am a representative of the interstellar intelligent species council and mean you no harm. If you wish, we shall leave until you contact us, but I believe that-' and so on thing. It was created to minimize the whole 'think we're supernatural beings and try to kill us' problem."

    “I know, right! I’ve had no connection this whole time and I had to bootstrap microchips with only one example.” Nick follows after him, seeming more used to his speed. “Just be careful. The reactions to us won’t be great, I’d expect.”

    Dray, absorbed in his wood chopping, doesn’t notice you leaving.

    “Huh. There’s people down there. We should go see if they know anything.”

    “Thank you.” Dray nods, handing him the saw. “Uh. Let’s see… that’s sharp, don’t get cut. And cut forward and back, not side to side, I think.” Once Raven cuts one log, Dray takes it to the axe yard, setting it up so he has something to chop on. He places the second log on top of it, then begins to chop it to pieces, his legs apart and the axe over his shoulder. “Nobody come in here without telling me.” @The Stormfather

    Nick taps Kaleb on the shoulder. “Can you open a hole in the bottom of the ice shelter? I’m gonna collect some rain.”

    He wasn’t throwing them very hard, or even in your general vicinity.

    I believe Tondon died between Quelkin and Jaksyn.

    Veer stands there, waiting for Gemini to do something else. If nothing happens, he begins lobbing more corn balls over the net.

    Dray finishes the axe yard and goes off into the woods. "Everyone not doing recon, listen up! We've got to work together or we'll die out here. You two! Stop horsing around." He points at Raven and Souls. "I need someone to saw this fallen tree into logs. We have enough tinder and kindling. Someone else, look for medium sized rocks and make three circles of them in an equilateral triangle. Sweep any leaves or pine needles to ten feet away from the fire pits. I'll chop our wood."

    "My sequencing is almost done, so it'll be another hour, I'd say, before the other suits are ready. The glasses should take around fifteen minutes." "I am worried about Merin. But we have a chance now. Sending Merryn in would destroy the show several times over." He salutes to the sky. "We'll be ready." Nick lets him sleep, operating under the assumption he still wants the tech.

    "That's tinder, but yes. Make a pile of wood shavings, a pile of dry branches, a pile of wet branches and green leaves, and we can try to drag a fallen tree or two over." "Excellent idea. I'll keep coordinating the fires."

    "Someone asked for a helicopter earlier - it didn't work. I do own all the stuff I've gotten so far - that may be related." Dray looks at you strangely, then helps you up. "Are you ok? Did the 'magic bag' conjure up something heavy?"
  20. Through the Living Heir
    "I'm making an axe-yard so I can chop wood safely, but I can try to build a shelter. A tent would be much-" Dray lurches as his backpack suddenly gets much heavier. "Huh. A tent."
  21. Through the Living Heir
    “So you’d take one as well? You wouldn’t have to give up anything you can do already - not with the glasses and not with the suit.” Nick nods solemnly. “I’ll get started.” Nick turns to the other two. @AltonicKeys @TheRavenHasLanded “Would you both like advisors, and xenosuits once I can get them?”

    The popcorn sprays away from his head, as if hitting a wall. “If you want. I can take the circlet off and get an actual paddle. It might make this more fair.”

    Dray walks over, holding some ferrorods. “I can do it; but we need to get some tinder and an actual fire circle. Without the first, it won’t light, and without the second, we could burn the forest down. Tinder is the smallest wood - kindling is the sticks that it will light.” Rustling around in the backpack again, he comes up with a pocket knife. “I’ll get us some wood shavings. Does anybody else know how to whittle?” Turning back to the whole group, Dray continues coordinating. “Does anyone else know how to use a bow saw? I’ll set up an axe yard over there. You two - put the dry branches in a pile here, wet branches and green leaves over there, and see if you can bring one of the fallen trees over there.” Then, he gets a rope from his bag, and begins tying it to some trees that form a rough triangle. “These bags are weird. I’d think I would have heard about the technology to do this sort of thing.”

    "The branches," Dragonheir calls to him. "We don't have an axe or a saw, so we couldn't do anything with the logs." Suddenly, his backpack gets a lot heavier. "What the?" Looking into it, he sees an axe in a sheath and a bow saw. "Alright, who did that? It's not funny." "We're going to make a triangle - it's a help signal. One fire could be from a lightning strike, but three in an orderly shape. Obviously manmade."

    Nick nods, seeming to understand Kaleb's wistfulness. "I will." "Of course not. That's what the glasses are for; people generally don't like being directly modified unless there's a really good reason."
