[ WEEK THREE ]

WEEK THREE

CURRENT POPULATION: 35 It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings. ... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours! Except there is, perhaps, a few things amiss. This post functions as the general mingle post for the week. Wanted Posters and other small events will be posted in top levels below. If there's any questions or requests, please send a PM or shoot a PP to robowest.

I agree. I intend to go back as soon as I can, and I won't dissuade anyone else who wants to come along from going too.

[she spreads her arms as if to say "look, no injuries."]

Chane and I are both okay.

[hydrokinetics]

Good. The less trouble we have there, the better. [He looks pretty disturbed despite that.] What are we going to do about the skeletons this time then?

[thatsthespirit]

[WHAT A GOOD QUESTION. . .]

I don't know.

But even though I plan on going back, I'd recommend avoiding the skeleton pit for now. There are unexplored areas of the mine beyond it; perhaps we could find something helpful to us there.

[hydrokinetics]

How are we going to get there if there's a skeleton pit? That sounds a little hard to avoid.

[thatsthespirit]

There's space around and behind it. If one is careful, it isn't difficult to travel the circumference safely.

[hydrokinetics]

[A slow nod.] We'll need an anchoring point to make sure nobody falls in. That's not the safest route but it's the most efficient, it sounds like. If we keep somebody outside of the pit holding somebody else down we can avoid this from happening.

[Like he's still pretty upset about Natalie and Sei, but he's also from a world where these things just Happen. It's hard to say how he really feels.]

[she's pretty upset too, but after a moment of guilt for not being able to save them she has decided to Move Forward. there's no point in dwelling on the past; you need to make due with what happens and keep going]

There aren't any rocks that can be used as anchoring points. Chane and I had to use ourselves, and the rope snapped during the descent. I don't know if that idea will work.

[hydrokinetics]

[...hmm...] If we had really long rope, we could tie it to that shack that's outside of the mines. A building should be secure, shouldn't it?

[thatsthespirit]

[brings a hand to her chin thoughtfully]

Perhaps, but I'm not certain if we have rope that long. And that still doesn't solve the problem of it snapping. The rope we had was old and frayed; hardly as useful as new rope would be.
