Event Ten.





Little Willie, mean as hell,
Pushed his sister in a well.
Mother said, while drawing water,
"My, it's hard to raise a daughter."





t's pretty dark and miserable down in the well. The cavernous area feels much larger than a well should be, bodies milling about in the darkness and knee deep, frigid water. So you're here -- and you're not alone, and the only way out appears to be the thin circle of sunlight from above, the opening of the well.

(And elsewhere, in the Town, everyone's waking up to gifts of various usefulness, but hopefully they remember to check the well today even so!)

What now?




Welcome to Awash's tenth event log, and the intro log for this month, everyone! All new characters have found themselves waking in the well in the middle of the Town. Hopefully they can get a hand out! For more information, please go here!

Meanwhile, the current characters have some new gifts.

If there are any questions, please ask them here, and have fun! Thank you!

[ Well. He's actually a little surprised someone said yes, but that hardly means he's going to stop... He'll just have to politely deflect and play at being passive, he supposes. ]

Quietly, no, I am afraid... By nature, wood-working is inherently noisy.

[ But he does at least bring his makeshift hammer up to rest in his hands while they talk. It's not much, but it's a slight reprieve. ]

As for farther away... I suppose so? But it would be quite arduous to have to carry things to some other, more remote location. As its midday, I did not think it would be too bad, but you do have my apologies for the disturbance.
good_ideas: (geez || when I figure this out...)

[It’s important to be honest, that’s what she’s always been taught. Even if she was taking it all the way to the extreme.]

Hm~ [That’s not the sound of her accepting his apologies.]

I guess making you carry all that stuff to another house would be a lot of work. How much longer is this supposed to take?
cutlery: (an unexpected error has occurred)

[ Sebastian looks at the furniture he's collected as he surveys it, but it doesn't take long for him to make an estimate. ]

Perhaps another hour or so...? It would at least make what is here serviceable, though I would admittedly like to make more improvements than the basic ones...

[ What that entails, he doesn't explain, but don't worry. It's absolutely not necessary in the slightest so much as Sebastian just wants to overachieve with everything. ]

Though considering this is the general state of things, I was considering offering my skill to others. In that case, I cannot estimate it well. Perhaps I can at least apologize for the noise by fixing something in your home?
good_ideas: (geez || you keep it)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-09-11 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
A carpenter, huh. [He doesn’t really look like a carpenter, but then again maybe appearances can be deceiving and he does have all this furniture here.]

How many somethings are we talking about here?
cutlery: (you may have stolen my cat)

[personal profile] cutlery 2018-09-14 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well, something like that. It is more accurate to say that carpentry is one of my skills rather than I am a carpenter. I can hardly claim mastery.

[ He says, but just based on his work so far, he does seem quite competent, at least. To her question, he shrugs very lightly. ]

Why, I was imagining a thing or two. I could hardly promise to fix an entire house, after all.
good_ideas: (geez || you keep it)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-09-15 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
It’s not like I’m a master, so I can’t tell anyway. [He looks pretty good at his job though and from touching the building itself, it doesn’t seem to have lost any structural integrity while he was messing around with it.]

Then does the roof count as a thing or two or do you charge per meter?
cutlery: (make her stronger. faster. assier.)

[personal profile] cutlery 2018-09-15 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He considers it with a thoughtful noise, complete with an equally thoughtful gesture of his hand in front of his mouth. However, after mulling over something for a few seconds, he shrugs. ]

It would be one, though I would also recommend a more sustainable roofing method. I do not believe that using wood to fix anything but structure is wise, considering it may be better used for, well, a structural issue. However, I can thatch a roof in about a week's time.
good_ideas: (evil || would I lie to you?)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-09-16 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
And you say you’re not a professional. [Because all of that sure does sound professional.]

I could live with a thatched roof. Do I need to help with anything?
cutlery: please do not take! (he's a golden deceiver!)

[personal profile] cutlery 2018-09-16 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's surprised that she offers to help, and it gets him to laugh a little ]

Ah, and here I thought it was an apology... [ Though it's said playfully and lightly, at least. To actually answer, he nods. ] Perhaps. I will need no small amount of material to make the thatch itself, and any assistance in collecting it would certainly expedite the process. It needs to be straw, reeds, or the like—a long, thin, sturdy plant, essentially.
good_ideas: (evil || now everyone knows)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-09-16 08:24 pm (UTC)(link)
It is, but I’m being nice and meeting you halfway. [But is it still nice if she points it out like that...?]

I can get that for you, I think. [Or Kaoru could and Shiho could supervise? It’s basically the same thing and would likely go by much quicker.]
cutlery: (this is so overly sweet I'm going to vom)

[personal profile] cutlery 2018-09-17 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He laughs a little, since her bargaining definitely isn't nice, but even if it's at his expense, he can't help but enjoy it. It's the sort of thing he would probably do, were he being more honest about his nature...

But, no. Certainly not now, since he nods agreeably. ]


Then I shall gladly accept the help to expedite the process. As there are no shortage of things to undertake in this town, well. It would not do for me to dwell on a single thing too long, I think.
good_ideas: (evil || now everyone knows)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-09-18 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
You already have it all planned out, huh? [But she’s still smiling even as she shrugs.]

I guess I can’t complain though since I get a new roof out of it and all. I’m Shiho, by the way.
cutlery: (thats actually just a plane wing)

[personal profile] cutlery 2018-09-22 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps not all, but certainly I have an idea. It may come as a surprise, but it is not the most obscure thing I have been asked to do. My master is quite demanding.

[ Though as odd as it might be to say the word "master" so casually, he doesn't dwell on it. There's not a beat in the conversation at all before his hand is brought up to his chest formally, and he dips into a polite bow. ]

Sebastian Michaelis. It is a pleasure, Miss Shiho.
good_ideas: (evil || yeah I really don't care)

[personal profile] good_ideas 2018-09-23 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
It’s nice to meet you too.

At least your master made sure you’d be prepared in any situation.

[And hopefully he’s some kind of servant because Shiho can only think of one other kind of person who would have a master.]
