[billboard] day 7

[controlledfajing]

[ Three days after the house meeting, the billboard was suddenly filled with all types of notices. Surrounding the familiar "Hello world. ( ´ ▽ ` )" message, were neatly pinned papers. The topics ranged from a chore list to a check-up signup and to even one advertisement.

On the top was another paper, less formal looking than the others that read, ]

New announcements! Please read, and have a good day! o( ❛ᴗ❛ )o -- I-Pin

weekly chore list

[controlledfajing]

[ Beside the paper was a small note that read, "Let's keep the house neat! Please, sign-up for your chore, and be sure to finish it before the week ends!" On the list were already two names: ]

Zenyatta || Library Maintenance
Dr. Walker || Sweep Hallway

trash brigade?

[vowlyball]

Hey what are we doing about trash? I don't have a problem collecting it and sorting it, but what comes after that?

health check-ups

[controlledfajing]

Dr. Walker is offering health check-ups for everyone in the house! Please visit him on the sixth floor when you have the chance!

[amorality]

[A note directly below I-Pin's in Ryan's neat, girly handwriting is added:]

Those needing a check up are asked to bathe before coming. If you would like a second party present during your check up, please notify me so that it can be arranged beforehand.

health clinic donations

[controlledfajing]

Dr. Walker is in need of medical supplies. Please leave any donations in the crate beneath the billboard, thank you!

[ Underneath the paper was another with a list of acceptable items to donate. It ranged from bandages to gauzes to salves. ]

[sweetnessandfight]

Since I will probably be in the woods anyway for various reasons, I'll keep a look out for salve materials. That said, if there ends up being dishware that's no good for eating out of any more, I can probably repurpose them for salve making, and this way we don't have to worry about cross contamination.

laundy day

[controlledfajing]

Laundry Day will be on the last day of the week. Be sure to bring what supplies you can to share with everyone else!

[sweetnessandfight]

I will be on the lookout for soap plants and the like; if people are in need of these things, for themselves or their clothes, please let me know!

~Sarangerel

[controlledfajing]

There are such plants? What do they look like?

[sweetnessandfight]

I think they called it soapweed in Gridania. It's about knee height on me, with flowers in red or shades of pink to white. Sort of stalky and long-leaved. Fresh or dried, the flowers and leaves foam when you agitate them in water, so the locals there use it for washing.

I know there's a way to make soap from wood ash and rendered animal fat, but I've never had much luck with that method. Maybe in Domina they'd have cakes of soap like that, though? I haven't looked there, yet.

self-defense/martial arts class

[controlledfajing]

Interested in learning to defend yourself? Join us for a self-defense class every morning! We meet at the clearing located down the stairs near the house.

[thebiggestguy]

I could help teach.

~DT

[controlledfajing]

Yes, of course! That would be fantastic! What fighting style would you teach?

[thebiggestguy]

Pugilism. Fighting with fists and feet.

Maybe another. We'll see about that.

[controlledfajing]

[ The next message kind of threw I-Pin off. Wasn't that most types of fighting? But, whatever, another person would join! ]

Well, I can't wait to see it! (*´▽`*) Maybe we should meet beforehand so we can plan what types of lessons we'll have?

[thebiggestguy]

We can do that. I'm easy to find. Just look for the biggest one.

[vowlyball]

EVERYONE SHOULD COME IT'LL BE GREAT!

[The messy scrawl barely fits on the piece of paper that it's written on. If there were any doubts about who wrote it, there's going to be a drawing of a little owl giving a peace sign in the corner.]

[nekohohoho]

Will there be weapons training, or just actual unarmed martial arts?

[controlledfajing]

I'll be teaching unarmed martial arts! But, I could teach some rudimentary weapon techniques, if I could get my hands on some weapons!

[nekohohoho]

I might be interested, especially in the weapons training.

[controlledfajing]

Great! I'll try my best to see if I can find makeshift weapons around here. But, just so you know, it's good to have some background in martial arts before learning weapons!

[ At least, that was how she learned. ]

[nekohohoho]

Both definitely can't hurt. But I get the feeling that if I want to get good at anything, in a remotely timely manner, I'll need to mostly focus on one thing. I haven't decided what that'll be yet.

[controlledfajing]

When you have decided, just contact me! I'll try to link you to the best teacher for whatever you want to learn!
