mapping party redux

Who: mapping party! (late signups for mapping party can go here)
Where: the near western side of the island
When: Day 85
Open/Closed: semi-open! feel free to mingle/run into mapping party at any of the locations. if you would like to be in mapping party, signups are above!

[So maybe you were invited along on this expedition by Jay or a friend. Maybe you heard a telepathic message a couple days ago looking for people with scouting and mapping skills and answered the call. Maybe you just happened to be in the area. Whatever the reason, there's a small group of people and dragons assembling on the beach near the huts, and Jay appears to be in the center of it, checking that everyone he's expecting is accounted for.

They'll be going by air to map the near western coastline and circling back around to camp, touching down every so often to look for landmarks and other potentially useful areas on the way. You're welcome to come along, if you can bargain yourself space on dragonback.]

Don't worry, a cave will be enough! I don't need that much underground. They're just nice to look out of... does that make sense?

[it's the dragon version of watching the rain from your porch, or the snow from behind a window. security and a view in one package.]

...I think I get it...

[he does, though he doesn't quite have the words for it. he parses it in terms of looking up at the sky from the deep nest of Geir's enormous coils, though, and that's similar enough that he makes the right mental association for once.]

Let's see if we get lucky, yeah?

Uh-huh.

...can you even get to my back from up there?

[he uses telepathy to send Vern his mental image of Vern climbing up the rest of his nose and sliding down his neck to his back like a child rolling down a hill. that would be very silly.]
rootbound: (that casts a shade.)

[snorts laughter]

Noooo, definitely not. Put me on there...

[Geir SIGHS DEEPLY, as if it's a terribly hard request, but a moment later he lowers his head again and lays it on his wing so Vern can climb off onto his back easily.]
