[The handwriting on the rock is Muffet's usual delicately intricate purple script, for once posing a question of her own instead of replying to someone else:]

When you first arrived here, what do you wish people had told you? What were the questions that would have been the most helpful to have answered?

Alternately, for those only recently arrived, what questions would you most like to ask those of us who have been here longer?

HEY ALL!

IF YOU SEE A DOG THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS

HIS NAME IS JOHANN

HE'S TRAINED AND WON'T HURT ANYONE

FEEL FREE TO PET HIM. BUT DON'T FEED HIM TABLE SCRAPS PLEASE.

HE LIKES TO PLAY FETCH AND TO HAVE HIS EARS SCRATCHED.

REMEMBER TO TELL HIM HE'S A GOOD BOY.

LOVE, MAGNUS AND JOHANN

PS: DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS?

[Now that everything has calmed down, Seto can ask a question that's been rattling around in his brain. So there's a new message on the Rock of Communication in messy handwriting.]

Hi. I hope this is okay to write on.

Is there a way to talk to someone who can't talk? I don't think something like that is in my world, so I don't know if there's something like that.

[Well there was a way to talk to someone without words in Seto's world but he's not touching that with a ten-foot pole.]

I'd like to learn if there is a way so I can talk to them more. I'll be here too sometimes if you want to talk in person. I have a blue jacket on.

[And indeed Seto can be found by the rock, if anyone would rather speak in person.]

[ HELP WANTED ] ; been traveling in packs that i can't carry anymore

[There's a new message written on the Local Rock of Communal Writing, next time people happen along.]

so far east side of the island right next to the lake there's a bunch of old buildings. one of them looks like it might've been a mess hall or something and then there's a bunch of houses and some plots of land that look like they were being used for farming stuff.

i've been working on making them habitable again. figure we could use some kind of communal area like a restaurant or bar or something.

if you're interested in helping there's some stuff that needs doing
- lumber. we got a lot of it already but we'll probably need more.
- stone. the ground is marshy in places so if anyone knows where a quarry is and how to get some rock for laying some kind of foundation that'd help
- labor. goes without saying. i'm just one guy. if you feel like pitching in you could probably set up in the finished place and use it as a base of operations or whatever. we got plenty of buildings for you to use. st probably doesn't like us on their turf constantly anyway

i've got means of waterproofing already but if anyone feels like helping feel free to let me know. write here or call me on your rock or come visit. ask for tim.

-tim

[ooc: also available for action prompts! tim can be found on the H5 square, which is where everything is located.]

Speech Stones

[A seriously pissed off voice comes through the speaking stones at a volume that's probably painful. There's enough honest threat in the tone to be rather unsettling.]

Hey, Storyteller! I have a bone to pick with you! One I'm going to beat you with afterward. The only question is whether that bone is going to be ripped out of your body or if I'm going to find it elsewhere.

[Jules has no idea if the Storyteller gets messages through the stones or not, but he's damn well going to try.]

hey

i need someone who knows about plants. and vegetables. some dog came by and grew a bunch of stuff but i don't know what some of it is.

it's all the way over in that abandoned monkey base, though, so don't bother if it's a hassle. it'll probably all end up dead under my care anyway.

ps-
if anyone knows how to get dried blood out of clothes, i need that too.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE MEAT!

WHO STOLE MY MEAT?!

[He's been looking for his meat for a while now and it doesn't appear to be anywhere.]

If you hadn't heard, Monsun is apparently disappearing soon. If anyone has time, I could use help moving the last few supplies off to the islets. There's also the tent to be taken down and moved - we should be able to carry individual pieces through the mana pool and set it up on the islets, but it's too much of a job for the few of us who remain at camp.

Finally, I might need some assistance getting Ardyn off the island when we get a little closer to time.

-Asch

[Feel free to also use this as a jumping-off point for action responses involving tearing down said tent and moving everything. Eventually, said giant tent will be re-erected on the islets, but right now the focus is on moving stuff. Asch isn't likely to really stick around to scribble on the rock, he's got too much to do.]

Battle Teachers Wanted

We've put a great effort towards making sure we have enough supplies to last through the darkness, and everyone who contributed should be praised. However, I was thinking that if there are going to be monsters attacking the entire time, then we're going to need to prepare our bodies as well as our supplies.

I'd like to set some time and space aside for sparring, or maybe even combat training. I'm fairly strong, but I've never had any formal combat training, so I wouldn't make a good teacher... but I'm sure that there are people around with more experience. If you're willing to donate some time to help someone learn a few techniques or survival skills, you might save a life. Even if not, some sparring could make sure our instincts are still sharp and we're not out of shape.

If you'd like, come to the east end of the first islet around sunset. I know that doesn't sound like the best time, but we should probably get used to fighting in the dark, and I still have a full jug of wassail, so the cold shouldn't be too much of a problem, either. The only home near there is mine, so we shouldn't be getting in anyone's way.

Thank you for devoting your time to helping us prepare for this.

need a favor

Hey, so, I need a favor or a few. Whether you're going to fight to defend the sun or not. It would be a good idea to pool favors together for first aid kits and better light sources.

With enough favors, we can get enough and have some to spare. I'm aiming to get as much supplies as I can so count me all in. - Keith

[ooc: Favors tallied over here. Make sure to toss up a comment with how many favors are going to this.]

A wild tagcloud appears!

Mm, yep. This sure is a tagcloud.
