hi guys! uhhhh i hope i'm doing this right
my name's sora and some friends and me are trying to build a boat!
we finished a raft first cause it was easier, but i've only seen hand tools laying around so getting the wood and shaping it and stuff sure is taking awhile. we've made a couple before so even though we don't have anything fancy it'll probably just take a few days, but it'd sure go a lot faster with help.
and maybe sandpaper, i only found a little bit.
anyway, is anyone else used to building stuff?
even if you just wanna help out that'd be great! i guess i don't really have a way to pay you or anything, but i'll let you name the boat! that's fair, right? or if we get lots of help we could probably make more than one.
a skiff should be just enough to get around and i figure to hold 2 people it'd have to be like..... 8 feet long, and for 3 maybe at least 12. it's gonna take awhile though! even with my dad and all his stuff back home it was almost 3 whole weeks. i kinda figured if we got lots of hands that we could make up for not having any of the special gadgets. like i heard you can sand wood down by just using rocks inside a shirt! i already have lots of blisters
oh! and riku said it'd be cool to see if anybody knows how to uhhh what was it
make a lens? so we could use
a torch as a spotlight?
i think that part'll be a little further off

But, uh it's kind of like an insignia? A symbol to represent your group.
So, something like that.
no subject
cause i don't think it should be just ours
i thought everybody should be able to use it

Because we need to show we're the best there is.
[ Elden there's only the 50 of you here... ]
But, that's a good idea if we need to do recon up the river or something to have that on hand.

like a sports team?

I-
okay I can't argue with you there 'cause that's how I feel about all this.
Regardles, I wanna make a flag for the boat, is that okay?
no subject
though if we're gonna make more boats, you might need to make more than one flag
