Nothing like the smell of rotting ape corpse in the morning
Who: Newt and Everyone Who Either Commented or Is Listed in This Post
What: Searching that Monkey Compound
When: 10/7
Where: Everyone's on a D8
Warnings: Rotting monkey corpses? IDK, tag ur stuff, friendos
"Picking over the remnants of that bloody battle will prove quite advantageous, as long as you don't mind the smell. Not only did the monkeys fashion several abodes mounted in the branches of the trees in the compound, but they had quite a supply of various items on hand. For those who may have been concerned about islet over-crowding, it seems they need not worry; most of the homes remain undamaged, and aside from the strong smell of monkey, are completely habitable."
"Investigating the back of the compound will reveal a very small plot of farmland, where several rows of plants with dark green leaves can be seen growing. Anyone with a knack for identifying useful plants - or anyone who's simply willing to take one for the team and give them a taste - will soon discover that these leaves are the plants from which the monkeys drew their sedative. It makes quite a useful anesthetic in a pinch!"
"The sigil etched deeply onto the door itself will, as the Storyteller warned, be quite effective in keeping people out. The door repels any and all efforts to break through it; those sensitive to magic may note that it does indeed exude a very powerful and dense aura that makes its origins difficult to discern. One thing is clear, however: it will take a great deal more than teamwork between mortals to get through it." ( x )
[Welcome to the Mingle Log, Fam. Around you are the rotting corpses of many dead apes. There's also many items for you to lay claim to. Or you might feel like checking out those sweet sweet monkey nests. Or checking out that door. Whatever you feel like doing, leave a top level for people to pester you with. Or pester other people with top levels. The Mingle Log is your Oyster.]

[Shooting the problem until it's dead doesn't exactly worth when some of the dangers are environmental. You can't shoot plants to life.]
A vacation that's leanin' heavily on thrillseekin' activities, but if that's what you're into I can't judge.

[Gobbet waves a hand dismissively and yawns.]
I come from a city of rain, grime, and crime. Tropical islands with murderous monkeys are a nice change of pace. As for wilderness survival, it can't be that hard, right? Just don't die. Food and water, heat and shelter, et cetera, et cetera. You'll figure it out. Plus, I can give you some tips once I've got my footing.
no subject
[Though it does give her a leg up on people who came from cushier backgrounds...for some things.
Maybe not so much like agriculture, though that's where McCree knows he's going to struggle.]
Don't reckon this place is gonna make gettin' any of that easy, but there's damn sure a lot of folks who seem to be tryin' to make the best of it.
no subject
[Gobbet eyes McCree critically, a modicum of seriousness on her usually carefree face.]
You seem like you could have made it in my world, you know. Might have been a decent street sam. If I'm right about you, you'll figure things out for yourself.
no subject
[He laughs, but he does understand Gobbet's sentiment. Sometimes life can't always be about upgrades, trading something worse for what's better.
His grin goes a little crooked.]
I might could've - can't say I know much about life on the streets, but I know a bit about gettin' into tussles where I reasonably shouldn't be tusslin'.
[It's not- not entirely a lie. Deadlock didn't do much on the "streets", Blackwatch you could pretend was always on the up and up. Still nothing a kid should've dealt with, probably. Still wasn't pretty.]
no subject
[Gobbet explains, thinking primarily of Gaichu - who was a real samurai. She doesn't know a whole lot about McCree, just what can be gleaned from his aesthetic and general demeanor, but she thinks that if things were different, they could have run together. Running the shadows was all about doing what needed to be done, filling a complex and critical role in society that went largely unnoticed.]
[Hell, depending on what the island was like in the long run and what needed to be done, maybe they'd run the shadows together anyway.]
