[boy oh boy, isn't everyone just so excited to explore this... charming... place...?

this is a game-wide mingle and the timeframe isn't super-important, so throw in with whatever you want! play war games, go shopping for gas masks, get lost in the wilderness, hide up in the Iskaulit and refuse to set foot on the moon, anything goes.

here's the main event info post for reference! have fun!]

[He follows the line her finger traces, along the scar. They all have stories behind them, personal ones. The tracework he could make across his own body would fill a book or two.]

It's a start. I'm not sure if anyone else has access to things like that here. My friend mentioned wanting a sword back as well, I don't know if she's made any progress on that.

I'd suggest culling some wood here to shape, but I'm sure it's all poisonous. [Like everything else on this godforsaken rock.]

[ Scars are forever - mostly. The one on her arm might have been healed by Ben, taken away, but she can still see the faint white lines against her forearm, just as she can feel the metallic nudge in the one on her face, the werewolf bites that stretch her skin and feel like they're blistering. Everything tells a story, and she feels old far too young because of hers. ]

I could try and make one, maybe... Wood is much easier than all the different kinds of metal you'd need for a real sword, and I could always cut it down to size or use it as more of a stick than anything else. It's a simple solution for now.

[ She frowns, arms crossed as she looks around the woods, nose wrinkling. ]

I'd rather not kill anyone, thank you very much.

Yes... a poison sword would do that. [A novel idea, though.] Have you ever used spears?

Not my cup of tea. [ She huffs, and gives him a Look. Don't you get any ideas. ] Spears... No, but that does seem like the next step. I don't think I knew anyone that was good at using a spear in the Drabwurld, so that might be why.
grandstanding: (Sounds like a volvo with a gunrack)

Admittedly, I haven't used one for combat. But I have made use of them while hunting and fishing. They would be easier to make, at least for the business end of it. [A spearhead might be an interesting challenge, to somehow make himself. He could find the flaws in it much easier than making a much larger item like a sword.]

Annoying to carry around, though. [Not very subtle, either.]
brainiest: (one more time)

You make it sound so easy and casual, you know. 'Oh, I used a spear to hunt and fish even if it was a pain in the backside.'

[ Hermione huffs a laugh, shaking her head and turning her gaze back to Erik with a small smile. ]

I bet I could use a potion to make me able to throw it further, though.
grandstanding: (Two whole dollars?)

Do I? Must be the practice. [There's some amusement around his eyes. Far be it from him to ruin the illusion with stories about the many misses he made with that spear. Or the wild animals that bested him.]

Yes, but if you've never used one, that might not make you throw it well. [Unless this potion is a magic 'do well at everything' sort of deal. It doesn't sound like it, though. This is a subject he knows little about.] What kind of 'potion'?
