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?

	Because you're still new. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Haha, I guess! But I'd be fairly useless if I let myself stay sheltered in the dorm. You learn by doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I didn't say they should keep you in. They should just have someone with you while you get used to things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They all have other things to attend to, Scowl. I think I can manage a little exploring. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're missing the point! The point is to shadow them while they're working so you learn something useful at the same time. Your team's older than mine! They should understand that much already! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[so angry. . .] Aaah, is that what you're worried about? Ikki and the others are sure to help with that in due time. I'm especially looking forward to hunting! In the meantime, no harm trying to learn on my own, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maybe I'm a fast learner. Anyway, do you mind if I come up there? I'd like to get a look at your launcher thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 01:44 am UTC (link)
	. . . Fine, but just you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 01:49 am UTC (link)
	Thanks! [CLIMBING ON UP THEN \o\ dome fortress is weird but cool 8\|a!] It's higher than it looks! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah! It's a great place to defend from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 02:00 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, you really have the advantage up here! Is someone out on watch duty all the time? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 02:04 am UTC (link)
	Usually. We barely even have to try though. It's hard to miss anything from up here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 02:13 am UTC (link)
	Nice. Then what exactly is this for? What would you need to throw from the roof? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 02:17 am UTC (link)
	Anything. It's mostly to scare off intruders we don't want around. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 02:26 am UTC (link)
	. . .by threatening to throw them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 02:28 am UTC (link)
	No, by throwing them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 02:36 am UTC (link)
	That's more direct! What do you do if you can't get all of them into the contraption? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 02:41 am UTC (link)
	. . . Wait, you meant people? Don't be stupid! I was talking about throwing things at them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 02:45 am UTC (link)
	That would be more practical, but. . . [did you just launch your shark :\|a] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 03:02 am UTC (link)
	Seriously. I wish I could try it . . . (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thegooddouche 2010-07-15 03:10 am UTC (link)
	I thought it wasn't for people. . . Heh! Find a way to land safely, and you can. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	righthandsmoke 2010-07-15 03:17 am UTC (link)
	I will! (Reply to this) (Parent)
