[ January 25th, after Mark's role call message ]

Circling the Wagons time, folks. Who's got what on hand, what colors are you connected to- Kamala, Bruce, drop your knowledge for any newcomers caught up in this mess. Whatever emotional trigger or whatever used to be needed for them? Doesn't seem to be a thing.

If anyone's found a source of water, let it be known.

For me I've got- a hammer and a chisel. That's it.

In other words telling you not to worry is useless? [A smirk, he shakes his head.[

The knife you made me's coming in handy. Thanks for that. We'll be back soon as we can.

[nonstopnarcissist]

I'm going to have to have a sit down and rethink a few forge policies, maybe.

[firacrux]

[He assumes this means a possibility of utility knives. They wouldn't be remiss given the circumstances.]

Consider this a field test, then. My only wish is I had a coat. Freezin' my ass off here.

[He's very grumpy about that, it's so cold. He grew up on a fairly tropical island.]

[nonstopnarcissist]

Exposure is a concern. Keep warm as best you can, kid.

[firacrux]

We're doing our best with what we've got. Good thing I could start a fire with a toothbrush if I had to.

[It's a bit of an exaggeration. Give him enough time he'd figure out how to make it true.]

[nonstopnarcissist]

There's a talent. We get everyone back, you'll need to share it. We're all woefully unprepared here.

[firacrux]

No kidding. Who knew they'd ramp everything up on us like this?

[nonstopnarcissist]

I honestly should've seen this coming. There were hints, a count down to something happening.

It's been relatively quiet for awhile.

[firacrux]

A countdown? [He'd not known, he'd only watched the small video on Rinoa's wrist device once. She hadn't said anything about a countdown.]

Good news is we're getting an idea where we need to shore-up our preparations. Survival courses, tools, hunting and foraging training. In case something like this happens again and our sorry asses are caught out without coats in winter in the Hynedamned woods.

[He's been caught out without a coat in winter and he's really not happy about it.]

[nonstopnarcissist]

Stashes, possibly, outposts? I didn't think they could just yank us all out en masse like that but apparently, now it's something to worry about.

[firacrux]

Wouldn't be a bad idea to consider buildin' outposts with stashes. Watchtowers maybe? Strategic positions that can be seen from a distance. No amount of training can have every person here ready to take on the wilderness.
