[EVENT] Boat Building Log

[paysdelamour]

Who: France, Portugal, and YOU!
When: September 24th, all day
Where: North of the island, in various locations in the Rose District and the Docks
What: France and Portugal are implementing their boat plan into action. People help build a completed boat!
Warnings: Probably some mild language (either from hitting hands with hammers or minions stealing supplies).

(( ooc: All threads should be organized under the three threads below! You may lock threads as needed, or keep them open to everyone, it's up to you!

The Supply Gathering thread is for those characters who are going to be imagining up building supplies and nails and hammers and the like, in order to send them to the docks! You will be managed under Francis/France, who will be flitting from house to house to make sure people are summoning the right parts. When things start getting stolen, he'll also start summoning missing parts to try and make up for lost time.

The Building thread is for those characters who are going to be actually creating the boat on the docks! Occasionally, characters from the supply gathering camp will come and deliver things to you guys! You'll be managed under Afonso/Portugal, who will be making sure you're building according to his blueprints. Also be sure to look out for those pesky minions who will be stealing supplies and bogging down the boat-making process. Someone may have to start guarding the supplies, but you'll also have to hurry on the boat!

Lastly, the Provision Gathering thread is for after the boat is built. This is for helping summon weapons and food and storing it into the hold of the ship. These weapons can later be used in the fight against the minions later, but any guns will have a very limited ammo supply because the minions will catch everyone by surprise! Any actual fighting of the minions will be carried out in the log posted on the 4th of April.

If you have any questions about the boat building, you may post HERE and I will get back to you ASAP! ))

"I'll take your word for it..." Nonetheless, he peers closer at it for a moment, since she went to the trouble of pulling it out again.

"I -- apologize if it's a little rude of me, but ... I have been meaning to ask... what are you? Or - I mean... what do you call yourselves?"

Since they didn't identify as human and had noticeable differences and apparently even different diets, based on that grub sauce there...

After he's looked, Nepeta packs it right back in. She also laughs. "It's not rude, don't worry. It's a bit of a culture shock; imagine how surprised we were when we discovered there were weird pale things out there!"

Perhaps calling humans 'weird pale things' in front of him wasn't the best idea, but oh well. Nepeta continued. "We're called Trolls and we're from the planet Alternia."

"I can imagine it would be very strange... But I see." At the very least, Minato isn't the slightest bit offended by being called a weird pale thing. He seems to get, at least, that Nepata doesn't mean it in any particularly bad way, and he supposes that humans seem just as strange to trolls as the trolls do to him and other humans.

"And you eat grub sauce. ... what else do you normally eat?"

It'll be good to know for food preparation, after all.

"Hmmm," she started with a purr. "I guess it depends! I ate a lot of meat because I had to hunt out in the wild. But there are other things."

Nepeta cocked her head to the side, still curious. "What about you, Minato?" Humans couldn't eat all the same things, as well, right?

"Me? Um... I ate a lot of seafood, rice and noodles back home. The country I'm from is made up of a lot of islands, so a lot of what we eat there is what can be caught in the surrounding ocean," he offered by way of explanation.
