So, um...

[A heavy, heavy pause. Cool, good start, Remington. Really nailing this whole thing.]

I haven't had a chance to say anything about it earlier because of...you know...everything.

[Quentin's post below his is telling enough as it is.]

But I used some, um, leftover wood scraps from the church rebuilding to make these, ah, ornamental markers? I gave them to the forest spirits and asked them to hang them on eye-level tree branches on the trees that they call home, so we don't accidentally knock something down for lumber that we shouldn't.

[He clears his throat.]

So that's all. If you see them. Um, that's what they are. I'll make more every so often so it'll reach places farther in...but...yeah...okay, bye. Thanks?

People...have trouble saying Daylight?

[Well...alright. Some things are harder for people than others.]

Sure thing, Day. I'm, uh, Remi--I mean I'm Remington, but I go by Remi. Nice to meet you, um, more officially.

[ daylight wants to explain why it's difficult for others in his world to say his full name but, er, he's a little shy on that subject matter.

so time for a topic change. ] Remi! Super cool to meet you proper.

You were- [ he paused, trying to recall some distant memory files to be sure of his words. ] You were at the meeting, right? Led by Sir Cao Pi a few months back? I remember you being really smart and stuff there.

[axegirlfriend]

Er...

[Smart? He's not sure that's the word he'd use. He said "I build things." and then nearly vomited afterward. And then like, ran out of the whole meeting because he got way too overwhelmed.]

Yeah, I was there. I talked a little but about reconstruction projects...

[Remington has never been a mentor nor has he desired to be one, but it feels wrong to try and break the image that Daylight already seems to have of him. So...he's trying. He's really, really trying.]

[sunborne]

[ is this a curious effect of the rashomon effect at work in real life or merely a case of daylight being ridilouclsy optimistic?

a mystery of the ages, since daylight immediately heads onto the next opening he sees: ] Oh! That's cool!

If you ever need help in those projects, let me know as well? I'm not, um, good with construction or anything but I'm definitely your guy if you need stuff to get hauled around or cleared away.

[ as the official biggest one™ in the gang - for the time being, but may the stars help beacon if someone bigger than day comes along - daylight only feels like it's right to give a hand there. a lot of stuff, um, clearly is in need of repairs. ]

[axegirlfriend]

Oh, absolutely. I mean, the more help, the better, right?

[Especially when things keep getting...severely, badly broken.]

I'll make sure to give you a ring the next time I'm doing something on a bigger scale.

[sunborne]

Sure can do!

Alright- I think I'll let you chat with the others then. [ and, you know, not be distracted by a chatty day. ] I'll get back to you ASAP when those plans have been drafted! Promise!
