catch-all open log!

[rebells]

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?]

[Once upon a time, before his life came crashing down around him, 9S was quite a bit more emotive than he is now. Well, insofar as somebody can be with half his face covered. And even more talkative, for that matter, though some of that was his simple eagerness for companionship. He's recovered somewhat since arriving here, but his smiles come a little less easily than they once did.

There's so much he still needs to address with 2B, and so much he would far sooner avoid rather than risk hurting her. But those thoughts linger on the periphery: his focus right now is on Nike's present condition.

Or he would, if she didn't just shout something like that right in his face. He takes pause simply to glance down at her, surprised by this admission, especially coupled with the face that she's beet red. He's seen Jude take on such a festive shade before, but it's still a sight to behold.

Androids can blush, but has he ever had cause to become that colorful?]

That's...an odd activation method. Isn't that sort of thing pretty significant for a human, usually?

[Not that he wouldn't consider it as such for himself as well, but he doesn't think it likely that he will ever be in that kind of situation. After all, he's an android, and so he and 2B are rarities around here. He can't imagine that 2B has ever thought about such things for herself either]
