Who: Anyone
Where: Outside of the angerdome
When: Day 148, noon
What:

[Scattered around the roof of Hydra are several crude tools made of bone, leather and stone and a few papers with rather technical designs on it. Claude's handiwork, for any staring at them, might be recognizable and lays largely untouched, however, in the margins, on the back, on several adjoining sheets are designs on implementing THOSE plans. Equations, materials, notes on experiments and results... all scattered throughout the pages in several handwritings and more than one language.

This obviously hasn't been an overnight project, nor anywhere near completed either...

However, what may have grabbed your attention is the groan of wood as they crank back the catapult for another test.]

... That might be the limit.. adjust the tension or just wait until we can really mess with the angle?

	I guess so . . . Ah. Anyway . . . I wanted to ask if you remembered . . . what kind of person I was. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Quiet... steady. A... well dissonance in the fact that you always seemed sure of what you were doing and often determined to do it but not really in yourself specifically. [Lacing up some strange, wheeled shoes.] ... We'd ... There's some potential in you, as far as our world goes... but I don't know if anything came of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[You know... back home, there was the concern of her having a normal life, out of danger... here.... ha ha.. yeah. Though the issue of loyalties and dangers therein across teams...

Considers the wheels himself.]

These... come from an element of the society we come from. Now... riders... almost anyone with enough time and practice can become decent at it.

But the people who can really work with them... the engineers called tuners... they're much more rare, and do absolute wonders.

... ... You might talk with Gold on your team. You might find a knack there in mechanics.

	Eh . . . really? But he works in the forge . . . Isn't it dangerous there? I don't think I could do that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is... and it might not be to your tastes. But... don't close off what you can and can't do so easily. You might surprise yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's the gist... I know a few specific details, ah... but those are things you might want later. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't even know that for myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh . . . um. Sorry to have bothered you, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	be_my_chum 2010-07-15 09:14 pm UTC (link)
	It's not a bother. There's a lot of things I do know about our world, how it works, and what's going on in it. But nothing that quite... merits this yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharksong 2010-07-15 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	Mm . . . I don't know whether to hope for it to really be worth this or not. It would have to be something horrible . . . but coming here for no reason seems even worse . . . (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If . . . If games like the recent ones are what we have to do to earn them back . . . You're right. I'm not sure I want them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
