SUPPLIES + GATHERING
Hello everyone! I was thinking we could have an ooc plot post about what our characters would want to do and organize some stuff!
1. Okay so, some characters want that food and some basic necessities items to be shared in community (bought or hunted or collected, anything goes!). If your character agrees, we can discuss how to arrange the food rations and how they'll be served (raw or cooked or whatever system you can propose). For example, one idea was to do a storeroom, but if this happens we need to decide how to create it, how long will it take, who can take turns to guard it, clean it, how to keep the food from spoiling, etc. Another idea is just split the food this time and have people figure out what to do with it (ask someone to cook it, trade it, etc). If you think of anything else or a combination of this, please say so. And everyone is welcome to cooperate with items to share among everyone and divide tasks. At the moment there's an egg and bacon to be split (the ideal would be splitting in equal measure but if your character dislikes one meal and prefers the other, they can always trade with another character? Maybe? Let's figure this out). So list:
a ) Raw Strip of Bacon
b ) Egg
c ) Squirrel Meat and Fur
On that note of dividing tasks and such...
2. Saber (and whoever knows of her plans and wants to help her pass the message) will be around at the food partition to speak about gathering together one day outside to decide a number of things to make the stay more harmonious for everyone. Topics from: jobs (who is good in healing/cooking/cleaning/sewing/singing songs of glory to the tree/etc), norms of coexistence and punishment for transgressions in case these happen (define crimes), security and defense against external threats (which is the most talked about in the amber network), supplies (food, clothes, etc), medicine/healthcare, housing, quests/tree research, and many more your characters could bring up. I just listed some of the topics. Some kind of variant of the Agora where everyone votes and proposes changes and consensus could be reached (or not)? It'll be also a good chance to snag shiny and brand CR! So if you like this idea, we can decide what day will take place, which spot, whatever goes, etc.
We can also handwave or log these two ideas, whatever you guys decide.

EDIT: Are these dates ok? And how about this system once they figure out the flow of things (icly I mean).

Is a mortar and pestle going to work? We can soften the wood by soaking it, but it still takes manpower to mash up wood, and we’re all inches tall now. (Maybe if we find wood that’s already soft/decaying? Or use someone really strong?) I was wondering if it were possible to make a strainer out of a leaf or petal by poking holes in it. And good idea about the drying; I was thinking of using sunlight, but the insects will be faster.
Also, besides the squirrels, currently using the rats in Chime’s mount rental shop for fur supply. (He pets them and collects the loose fur. He’s also collecting feathers for when he finds someone who knows how to make quills.)
Thank you for the ideas! These are really great~

And a leaf actually could be a strainer now that you mention it... if you cut out all the leafy bits and just leave the veins, it's basically a net, and being so tiny they'd be able to do that.
Oooh, I totally forgot about the bird mounts! That would definitely make it easier for folks who aren't into calligraphy.

(Note: If Owain helps, Orcelito will pay him in paper. And best of all, he won't ask what its' going to be used for. Good deal, yes?)
