We Are Our Avatars X (Closed, Ended)

[FPSfanatic]

Jack dug from Calamity Jane's saddlebag a large pan, some pepper, and some sauce that would taste similarly to Tobasco. He took out a knife and scraped off whatever had settled on the fish he would cook for the night, and turned Calamity Jane's engine up. One fender, lower to the ground then the others, began pouring a small flame that would be hot enough to begin cooking the fish. Honest Jack shrugged, and started cooking as if they were fish at home, working as best he could with his limited set up.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

"Well, I can't help you get a ship, but we'll be sending some fish to the city with a cart. Some of you might be able to ride there, but the rest will have to walk." the woman replied.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Seeing as the cart was practically taken care of, Jane and Homer simply relaxed by their hole.

 

[Demonjazz]

"Okay than! Have nice day! Make sure that kid doesn't follow me!" He said walking his way over to Calamity Jane. "Hello! Piloting friend! I found cart we can take to city!... We can't own it though!"

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Robin went over to Timea, Sibylla and the Gems. He waited,not wanting to interrupt if they were in the middle of something.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Honest Jack looked up from his cooking. "You're certain we can't own it? Because we're probably going to have to go places after we hit this coastal town. Having a cart we can hook up to Calamity Jane would be mighty useful."


The smill of cooking fish and spices would begin to drift through the village. It would be safe to say to any who could smell the food that Honest Jack at least had an idea of what he was doing.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"I'm sure if you throw some of that silver at them they'd give it up." Jane said to Jack, reclining against some sandbags and looking at her flower.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

The group gathered around Jack would likely notice a cart being loaded up with fish by a few of the townspeople. While it was a relatively small cart, there would still be some space where people could sit. The smell, and method, of Jack's cooking, however, had distracted some of the locals.

 

[Silence]

Apparently nobody cared that the hook lady wanted to eat fish. Indeed, everyone else seemed to prepare the fish too.

Then the fish was cooking, and it smelled oh-so-wonderful, which did make Speedys mouth water. It did surprise him, because back home, there was no edable meat anymore, aside from a few mealworms. And eating them was strictly forbidden.

"How many times do you think we can eat fish until there is no fish in the ocean anymore? I don't want to be responsible for the extinction of fish in this world." he asked nobody in particular.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Jack glanced over at the cart. "Not really feelin' an interest in taking that out for the rounds. Not for ow little silver we have." He looked to Jane and Homer. "You two think you could negotiate getting the cart for a silver piece or two?" he reached one handed into his shirt, where he'd already settled the silver coins like an old friend, and pulled out five pieces. he held them in his hands, staring with sadness upon their glimmer. Jack glanced down at Speedy, and then over to the large pile of fish. "I think we can risk a couple of tastes."

 

[ShindoL Shill]

"We've been eating fish since the islands came out of the sea, and we won't be stopping any time soon. There's a lot of fish in the ocean. More than any of us could eat in a lifetime." one man stated, chuckling softly at the idea of emptying the ocean.

 

[Demonjazz]

Heno looked offended by Jane. "Silver is for boats, or emergency. This not emergency, and that is certainly not boat! Walking is good anyway. He then looked towards Jack, and delivered a quick punch to the jaw. It wouldn't hurt him, but it would certainly slow someone down.

 

[Slenn]

EMily didn't sleep through the night, since she entered through the portal to this world when it was daylight on her own world. She gazed up at the night sky, admiring how clean it was of light pollution.

-----
She had helped with the cart in the morning, since it seemed like there were already people handling the cooking. A bit bummed that she didn't get to cook.

"Fish repopulate fast. Herbivores come in multitudes, so the oceans are going to be riddled with them." EMily said, reassuring Speedy. The floating Magic Eye floated besides her.

 

[FPSfanatic]

Jack, being a man unused to suddenly took punches, nearly lost his silver and his fish. "Ormagoden Heno, we might need that cart! No telling if someone missing stuff more vital to movement might show up!" Jack declared, being careful to put the fish back under the flame. "Hey, EMily, mind grabbing me some plates out of the saddlebag? I think I've got 3 or 4. We'll have to eat round robin style."

 

[Slenn]

"Sure thing. I can do that. Where are we planning on eating?" She brushed her hair a little out of the way as the wind was blowing slightly.

 

[Demonjazz]

Heno reached to Jack's shirt pocket and quickly tore it off taking the contents with it. "I am keeping the silver, pilot. I don't think your responsible enough to have it." He said attempting to wrestle any coins left in the man's hands.

 

[Slenn]

EMily raised her voice, not liking that Heno was taking things too far.
"Would you please control yourself for just one moment, and stop throwing punches and tearing people's clothes off. Good god."

 

[Chungus]

After the gems finished doing what they came to do, Timea, who had been following the movements of the rest of the group, turned to Sibylla. "It looks like they're preparing to have breakfast. You might considering joining them, we can have a little talk later. Sounds good?" she suggested. After Sibylla gave her response, Timea then turned towards Robin as he approached.

"Were you looking for me?" she asked once Robin reached her.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"I'm getting everyone together. We're waiting and then heading out. There's a port to the north where we can get transport and start looking for answers." Robin told those present.

 

[Chungus]

Although Timea had flown to the area where Sibylla had slept, and her dress was obscuring the fact that her legs were partially sunken into the ground, the deep footsteps deep footsteps left by her walking towards Sibylla from where she landed could clue Robin in Timea was the Sebastian persona he had seen the night before.

"Oh, I already knew that. About the port, that is", Timea commented. "And I won't be joining the posse that's been formed, here. I've never been one for group activities", she added, holding her arms out to the side a little at the end of her sentence, bending the elbows slightly.
