found a village

( he has attached the map with the approximate location of the village marked — coordinates and all. so, don't @ him for not saying more.

eta; oh yeah, so his exploration thread is still ongoing which means he may or may not provide new information as it progresses. only time will tell. )

( when we need the shrug emoji the most

not that he would use it. )

yep

[chardismastic]

all right then

would you like to share with the class anything about this apparent village? or are you really banking on the mystique to drive up tourism

[jigsawn]

20 houses, a park, rec center and library

no signs of life, except for a crab

( pls don't ask him about the crab. )

[chardismastic]

[ Oh thank christ. ] better

...is that crab like the crow by the fire or is this an actual crab

[jigsawn]

like the crow

it's selling ice cream and ( can those inflated surgical gloves even be considered balloons? ) other shit

[chardismastic]

useful shit?

[jigsawn]

no ( not at all, my dude. )

[chardismastic]

course not why would it be

[ But checking this map now and— ] how'd you get across the river

[jigsawn]

rope

tied it to two posts, one end on each side of the river

( #resourcefulaf

but the rest of u who don't know how to commando crawl across a rope are effectively on your own )

[chardismastic]

[ Honestly if he didn't already know Raylan's username he'd be squinting right now because that sounds like some premium lassoing, cowboy. ]

resourceful
river didn't give you any issue with the crossing?

[jigsawn]

( well, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

he wouldn't be able to beat raylan at lassoing. probably. )

something tried to grab my leg

tossed a stone in the water to test it out, turned my back and whatever it was threw it back at me

( hit him right in the back of the head too. )

[chardismastic]

[ That's true, you can tell by the hat he wears. ]

oh
fantastic

future note shit like that may be something you want to mention earlier in the conversation

[jigsawn]

( it's a great hat tbh

he really does need that shrug emoji because all rafe is going to get is radio silence now. )

[chardismastic]

[ Okay, your report card is definitely going to read "doesn't play well with others". ]
