catch-all open log!
Who: Anyone and everyone!
Where: On the beach, and various other places throughout the hub island
When: Day 80, and the next couple days after
Open/Closed: open log for hub shenanigans!
[This evening, someone has placed an old, rusted-over camp stove on the beach near the coven's row of huts--anyone examining it in detail will see that it's not operational at the moment, but that could potentially be changed, couldn't it? If someone was handy with mechanical things . . . .
Next to it is a crate (which, from the weight of it is empty) and pinned to that crate is a sheet of paper with a map on it, something like a much cruder, black-and-white version of this:

with the following key:
1 - crags. Contain snakes which may be poisonous. Watch out.
2 - ocean, going about one mile out from the coast.
3 - lagoon. Contains thick reeds (could be woven or shaped into tools) and frogs (edibility uncertain).
4 - abandoned campsite.
5 - orchard. Currently, trees are diseased and bare. Plant healer needed.
6 - abandoned house. A family used to live here, from the looks of it. Still contains some useful supplies.
And there should be a 7 north of base camp with the notation "graveyard. Graves unused." but the player forgot and is too lazy to go back and fix it right now. Observant individuals will note that the map looks like a more detailed version of one hanging on the door to a certain coven member's cabin, one that has a note on the bottom: "Have information? Ask for Jay."
Other than that, it's a quiet night on the hub island. We've been here for a couple days; maybe you're getting restless? Want to check out that ocean, or lagoon, or even those crags? Maybe just go door-to-door in the beach huts? Maybe you're sick of shrimp and looking for other things to eat . . . hopefully someone's got a fire going tonight, and thought to kill a boar . . . .
What are you doing tonight?]

"...Mecha-mounted harpoons. So the whole rod-and-net thing's a new one for me."
no subject
“It’s not supposed to hurt when you use it though, right?” At least, no one’s said anything about that to him quite yet. “I mean, if it is, then I don’t blame you for not having the hang of it...” Unlike the burn of working out, this seems more like one would be shooting oneself in the foot with repeats.
“We use a rod, line, and hook where I’m from, though. Is...that different for you too?”
no subject
"Dunno about that. Never gone fishin' the 'normal' way before, but that's probably how it works."
no subject
“Anyway. I’m not sure how you’r gonna try fishing if y’don’t really know how it’s done, pal.”
no subject
Well that led to a somewhat unpleasant thought.
"...What happens if you lose control halfway through the ground? Do you get stuck?"
no subject
“Y’know, as interesting as it’d be to find out... I don’t...know if I want to find out.”
no subject
"Doubt it'll happen, though. You'd probably just end up in the wrong place or something."
no subject
no subject
"Besides, we all get growing pains with our powers. Mine kept spillin' out without my even realizing it."
no subject
“...but maybe tell me what you mean by ‘spilling’ first because that’s...considerably more alarming than the other thing you just said.”
no subject
"Turns out my magic is just that I don't get tired out, and apparently it was spreadin' out to the boars, too."
no subject
“Does that mean you don’t have to sleep?”
Serious question. Because that’s...actually kind of sad. Even if he’s used to little sleep from his training
and also the nightmares, there’s nothing quite like the feeling of getting proper rest in the form of sleep. At least in his book.no subject
"Nah, more of a run-a-lap-'round-the-island-and-not-feel-exhausted sorta thing."
no subject
“I mean, can you stop it from spilling off from you? Or can you not stop it at all?”
no subject
"Kinda wish I got a better luck of the draw, though. Some of the people who came in same time as me could do stuff like create explosions!"
no subject
“Explosions aren’t everything though. Not like you can’t do that with other things anyway, right? Like bombs and stuff.”
no subject
And speaking of waking up early...
"Yeah, and I could have limitless energy with a few cups of coffee."
no subject
“Y’know, I feel like everyone can appreciate a good cup o’ joe. As long as it ain’t gonna mess with your nerves or anything anyway.”
Impulsively, he has to ask, “How do you like yours?” Because he hasn’t had any since getting here and bonding over something familiar that he knows better feels more gratifying right now instead of moving on to help this guy figure out what the hell fishing means.
1/2
2/2
"Or maybe one'a those kinda icy ones with the caramel and butterscotch in 'em? Those are good too."
no subject
Though for that matter— “Actually, y’know what? A coffee slush would be pretty damn good right about now.” Not too hot, not too mild. And coffee is a good way to keep body going.
Which Bucky might need help with seeing as they haven’t actually gotten that far in discussion about fishing. Not that he minds talking about it instead of doing it, but doing it also means they can talk while possibly catching fish. Or so the logic goes.
