Video: UN - JustD

[distant_one]

[OOC: This is this month's network post for stuff relating to the Outpost Haven location/player plot]

[The video is once again made from the Staging Point in Crenshaw for Outpost operations. This time it's focused on drawings of the current state of the location; there's a blood ward at the outer wall line and a barrier ward around the bunk house and garden. The outer wall is complete except for the gate and the bunkhouse is complete and has places for a couple dozen people to sleep if they don't mind how close everything is.

There are dotted lines detailing the next phase of construction.]

We're working on making an outpost about thirty miles west of Trench. The outer wall is mostly complete and there's a place to sleep but not much else just yet.

I'm providing food and lodging either in town or out there to anyone who helps with the outpost project whether that's construction, fighting beasts, or providing other skills or materials. Any earth or stone related abilities will be very useful and I'll offer trade items for anyone willing to help with that.

In addition to the materials we're gathering so far there's a useful substance made from Vileblood, Darkblood, and Coldblood that can fuse stone together when applied to the surface of a stone wall or used as mortar so we'll be trading for blood as well.

Anyone interested can contact me here or come to the house decorated with banners in Crenshaw near the Watch Tower.

I don't know if I'll be able to get more or not yet, don't go bargaining for something I might not have.

You wouldn't need to give me anything. The sample of fuel will be enough.

[After all, if they can make more for the car, they can make more to use for other purposes.]

[ He chuckles, apparently having been put into a great mood even by just the very idea of this. ]

Oh, come on. Are people not allowed to be glad when someone gives them a kind offer?

[ Daniel is mostly just joking. It's evident in his tone. But the happiness behind it - that's very much genuine, even more so now D has even said he doesn't need something in return.

Daniel always likes meeting people who show kindness in that sort of way. Showing that there's merit to trusting people. ]

I'm just glad you're even willing to give it a try. I know a lot about cars, but a lot less about.. [ His voice trails off, before adding: ] You know. All the oddities of this place.

[ Like how all the blood and magic works here. ]

You should stop by sometime. Maybe we can figure something out together. And besides that, it's just a nice car to have seen for once! [ Daniel isn't even sure about what kind of world or time D is from, and has no idea how new or old or entirely foreign the car might be to him.. But still. ] It may be old by the standards of where I come from, but it's a real beauty.

[D sees it as less of a kind offer than a practical one, but he isn't going to correct that assumption.]

I can come by to see the car, but I'll have to take the sample to a few different people to get their expertise.

[His Left Hand might be able to make it in small amounts with the appropriate raw ingredients, but that's not really a solution. And encouraging his hand to make highly flammable substances seems like asking for trouble.]

[miyagimagic]

Makes sense.

[ Mostly since Daniel figures that everyone has to figure out the rules of this world - though some people seem way ahead of him there, D most likely concluded, considering his entire outpost project.

But he figures that no one has tried to make fuel from scratch here yet, using the materials this world provides them with. So him having to ask others for help? That definitely makes sense. ]

I can definitely get you that sample. [ It's not even hard. ] I haven't exactly driven it much here, so there's plenty of gas left in the tank to examine. And if there's anything I can do for your project with the car in return once we figure out the fuel problem, you just got to let me know. It's the least I could do in return.

[ And, really.. it's not like Daniel ever really minds helping out. That's just the kind of person he is in the first place. ]

would you like to do action or another thread somewhere else for meeting up

[distant_one]

This place isn't set up very well for moving things by truck, but if something comes up I'll let you know.

[miyagimagic]

( ooc: doing another thread sounds good! i saw you put up a catch-all, maybe we can do it on there? you can make the starter, or i can, i'm cool either way! just let me know! c: )

[distant_one]

(ooc: I do have a catch-all up. if you want to put a starter there that would be great or I can this weekend once i'm done running around.)

[miyagimagic]

(ooc: there we go, the starter! sorry for the slight delay!)
