Well, that was fun, huh? Everyone's recovering, I'm guessing. Luke? Ginny? ... Angry guy? You're all good?

With all the excitement over, we can go back to doing whatever, huh? After rebuilding some stuff, of course.

Speaking of... Uh. I've been trying to keep an eye out for stuff, but would anyone know a good place to find building materials? Like scrap metal and bolts and stuff? Either I'm looking in the wrong places or there's not much of that around. There's gotta be something after all of that, right?

Never caught the guy's name last time I talked to him. He was kinda... Interesting, but seemed like he had a good enough head on his shoulders.

t e x t. (just a LITTLE BIT yes.)

[dropkick]

I see.

[ And because Arthur's got no particular interest other than that of a passing kind in the 'angry guy', a hook into the conversation, he moves on just as readily. ]

What are you trying to build?

t e x t.

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

I'd say a solar surfer, but I can't find any solar panels. So... Like an air surfer's probably the best name for it here.

[ Suffice to say, Arthur got his hands on one or all versions available of the guide from various persons. He's aware of the 'from different times' concept but it's sticking largely to just that. A concept. So far. Rather than undermine the validity of what he's still perceiving as a spin-off of the subconscious, he goes around. ]

Strictly wind based, or with some kind of engine?

[ Granted, 'surf' does imply a certain lack of the usual heavyweight machinery, but he's just not sure. ]

Depends on what you're trying to do. Back home, the solar panels would power a small engine to propel it and you could use that or you could retract the sails and glide on the wind with it.

Here, it looks like I'll have to figure out some other kind of power source.

One of the guides says there's a barrier. I wonder how high you could get before you run into it.

t e x t.

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

Don't know. The barrier just got put back up, so there's no telling if it's the same specifics or not.

...It'd be fun to find out, though.

t e x t. i see what you did there...........fdsjmktewifosdkihofkelwsdihokltwegfsd

[dropkick]

Not to mention useful.

t e x t. ajflasjkdf IT WAS UNINTENTIONAL, I ASSURE YOU

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

Could be for people interested.

[ Oh he is staying far away, figuratively, from the Voice option, for now. No need to have his mid-life crisis like twenty years early lmfdsflkdsfsd........well, so goes the logic of the never-been-cursed. Yeah that should be a movie. Or not. ]

But not you, I take it.

t e x t. /burrows under blanket jflkajsdf

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

After seeing what's on the other side of the barrier... Yeah, not me.

t e x t. /pets you lmfdsojlkgrdf <3

[dropkick]

Harpies, I know. Was there anything else?

t e x t. jflaksjdf <3

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

That's all I could tell was out there, but they were pretty bad. I'd rather not deal with 'em, you know?

t e x t. sob he even TALKS like Arthur does when he's super casual t.t in addition to sound obv

[dropkick]

Sounds practical.

[ And, he supposes, who's to say there's anything useful out there with the harpies? Arthur can barely wrap his mind around the inner City as it is, so far. ]

t e x t. LMFOAJFLKASJF JGL, never change your speech patterns

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

I like to think so.

Your friend explain everything yet?

t e x t. never EVER they are GOLDEN at this point lmeusdojlk

[dropkick]

[ Very barely keeping from saying they're not friends - it feels a liiiitle a lot like he'd be setting himself up for what registers as Prime Mortification. Best to not say anything and it's hard to explain why he'd be staying with someone who isn't his friend anyway - coworker still raises a few eyebrows apparently. ]

Not everything. I've been given the impression that it's more of a live-and-learn deal.

[ Or, at least, that verbal explication will only get any guy so far. Being cursed into behaving like a toy monkey and hearing about it are, altogether, rather different things. ]

t e x t.THEY ARE AMAZING YES

[trytofindit.livejournal.com]

Some of it is, yeah. I didn't believe half of it until I started seeing it happen. Still not sure I do completely.

Guess you'll have to see for yourself.
