Okay, this is for Maryanne.

I don't know if anyone is interested in it but it might be a nice way to bring some community spirit to this island.

What I was thinking of doing is a wish-exchange: people can sign in, and ask for something they always wanted to have or might have always wanted to do. No judging here! And then other people who think that can fulfill these wishes can comment to it.

Maybe we could also just list skills of everyone around. So people get an idea of what they could ask for. A training session with someone... an evening of dancing together... maybe some sewing... heck, I don't know.

Just people doing nice things for others. I think we could all need a bit of that. What do you guys think?

	As far as the skills list goes, I can draw. And Lillian makes amazing things out of driftwood. (Reply to this)

~~Waking up not fuzzy~~
~~Being loved like he loved m~~

I can dance, ballroom, line, and jazz... And whatever you want to call what flag girls do. I could teach it. And you can pick a stringed instrument and I can probably teach anyone that wants to learn.

Cooking... If we did it in the pub I can teach a few things.

That's the list of helpful things. I don't teach people how to do sexy things well anymore.

	I want a damn good meal. That's all I want. But I can shoot and teach other people how to. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm a damn good cook and baker if you really wanted your good meal. Got any favorites? How good are you at this whole shooting thing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Pie. I love pie. About as good as they can get. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	newkindacharmed 2013-06-30 02:47 am UTC (link)
	You are in luck. Pies are my specialty. Where I used to be before here I managed the local pie shop. That's quite a talent. I mean I've never learned how to shoot a gun. My powers are better than a gun. But I've always wanted to shoot one just to get the experience. Maybe you could teach me sometime? Pie for shooting lessons? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ooh, a PIE shop? As in, meat pies... or those silly American fruit pies? ~~I mean, I assume you can do BOTH, if you have the know-how to make the pies in the first place, but...~~

Well, if you CAN make some meat pies, what would you want for them, in terms of favours? I mean, I could probably make up some new spells for the Book of Shadows you asked for, below there...! (I'm a witch, too, you see...)

	Well, more fruit and cream pies. But I can probably make a couple meat pies for you if you'd like. I'm a very fast learner. Your a witch too? That's amazing! The book could use some more spells and potions. Its getting so big already. But, I would need to get the book first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, if you can't find the book -- well, I could probably teach you enough spells to make our own book, really...! I mean, I was in Hogwarts for all of 7 years -- came away with SEVEN N.E.W.T.s!

I mean, honestly, I'd really appreciate any effort you put into a good meat pie, because all I've really got for a taste of home here is... well, sausage rolls... from the diner...! And that's not exactly healthy, as I'm sure you're aware...! Ha!

	That sounds like an even trade. What do you want to learn to shoot? A handgun or a rifle? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	newkindacharmed 2013-07-01 01:29 am UTC (link)
	Well, I think working with a small gun for now and work my way up to a bigger one? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alright, I have the perfect little pistol you can try. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I don't know if there's anything I want but I'd be glad to help other people if they want anything I can offer, though it seems most here already have most of those skills. I can fight. Hand to hand and with weapons. (Reply to this)

	newkindacharmed 2013-06-29 10:07 pm UTC (link)
	I'm a witch, I can orb things from different places. So if you need it I can get it. I can also heal if you are physically wounded, and I can travel from one place to another within seconds. And I'm great at making potions. I would really like my book of shadows if its possible to get it from home. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Your... Book of Shadows?

Well... as dark as that sounds, let me see if I can help you work that out: at least, HOW to get it, seeing as how I'm stuck in quarantine until the good doctor makes a determination as to whether or not I'm infected....

Anyway's, well, I think that someone MAY be able to go grab it through the door, assuming, of course, that you're FROM 2013, or thereabouts...! I mean, well, there has to be a chance to travel within the continental US whilst the door's open, right...?

Yeah, its a book that has been passed down from generation to generation.

Its not dark at all. It has all the spells and potion recipes to get rid of demons and other evil beings. Oh so your one of the people that are quarantined, I'm sorry to hear about that.

I think that if people can get to Arlington, TX, that there must be someway of getting to San Francisco so that I can get into the manor and get the book. It would be really helpful to me because I need my potions.

Thank you by the way!

	1/2 newkindacharmed 2013-06-29 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, my family comes from a long line of very powerful witches. And have killed many many powerful demons, even the source of all evil. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, it's no problem, for Me, at least...! I mean, I think I'm rather used to hospitals after all the chemo I went through before this -- escape to an island paradise, really! Ha! Sorry....! And... you're quite welcome, really... It's the least I can do, after all... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	2/2 newkindacharmed 2013-06-29 11:32 pm UTC (link)
	Oh man, I'm sorry about the whole Chemo thing. What kind of cancer did you have? Its okay. Well, if there is anything that I can get for you or do for you while your quarantined, I've had all my immunizations so I won't get sick. Just let me know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Still have, really...! I mean, it started as bone cancer -- osteosarcoma -- but now it's metastasised to my brain, and my lungs, as well... It's OK, though, I'm FINE, really...! I mean, before this whole meningitis outbreak, well... Dr Banner there, offered to fix my KNEE for me, so I could actually walk properly again, instead of -- you know, limping everywhere...

~~And then, maybe, I can finally make it up to the Man...!~~

	newkindacharmed 2013-07-01 01:32 am UTC (link)
	Oh....well, you know. I can probably heal your broken bones. I mean I can't cure cancer, I wish that I could. But I can fix your knee for you so that you can walk. It doesn't hurt, doesn't require an operation and I use my hands. If you want me to help you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	your_caretaker 2013-07-01 02:57 am UTC (link)
	Oh... Oh, no, that's quite alright, really! I mean, Dr Banner's already got the prosthetic ready, and... well, I just trust modern medicine, you know what I mean..? [Ooc: don't mind him, Melinda! X-D <3 He's just afraid of ending up Damned to Hell for accepting a WITCH'S help with his health...! >___> I mean, he IS Catholic, after all...! :-(] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	newkindacharmed 2013-07-01 03:41 am UTC (link)
	Are you sure? I mean you wouldn't need a prosthetic or anything. And you would be good as new. I promise, I'm really not a bad witch, I'm a good witch and I help fight off evil forces. So you wouldn't be in any trouble if I were to help you. [ooc: HA! Its perfectly alright. She's like really? nobody turns down my services...lol.] (Reply to this) (Parent)

	your_caretaker 2013-06-29 10:40 pm UTC (link)
	Well, I can only offer up my brain power, really - like I did for Miss Melinda, up there, but... Well, if anyone wants to get Rachel her CDs and movies, well... I'd really appreciate that, second-hand...! (Reply to this)
