Good afternoon dears.
[There's Lark, holding her phone in proper selfie-orientation, the background clearly indicating she's in the lobby of the Temba Hotel. Her free arm was wrapped around the big, cream colored, curly coated dog at her side, who looked very pleased just to see the picture moving on the screen. And behind her, just barely visible, is a large pack.]
It is starting to feel like late spring, or perhaps early summer. And this is a very important time. It is the time for me to head over to Sh'Ka to harvest things for pigments. Pigments for dyes, pigments for paints if people wish those, just plants that Moonshade and I discovered before.
Seems to me that it might be a good time to not only head over there for gathering, but I've got a list of foods to harvest and smoke or dry for the diner as well, per the young man there's request. It is a lot of work for one person, but I would not turn away from it. Especially as I'm hoping those bushes near that fancy building in the Northeast truly are berry bushes and if so, that I can get a good number of those for preserves, maybe even some leaves for tea.
This could be a good bit of work, so I wished to offer any who might join me an invitation now, so you can get things together and either join me by train, or if someone can fly on of the ships, transport that way.
What say you? I promise not to meddle with the network there either. I've taken Agriculture for the period of time I'll be over there, to make sure I only gather things that are safe to touch and consume.

I can get there by train and help out.
[Who knew, maybe there was something that might not be so peaceful where this lady was, and if there weren't, he could easily help keep her safe.]
Food's important, especially for everyone here.
[Says the hunter and the fisher. Maybe there'd be some fishing to do and that could get smoked too.]

ANd happier to have company.

I'll get there on the next one out. Where am I meeting up with you?
no subject
I believe it might be best to meet at the station.
no subject
[Or so he hoped.]

I should be able to make it by train no problemo.

It would be nice to have more company.

[ action! ]
Ready to leave!
[ He announces with a cheerful salute and a telling glance around the lobby, by now already well decorated with various paintings, some finished, some in various stages of progress. ]
Sure been running a bit low on our paint after all. And I'd love to help! Also hello you, little one!
[ Yes, this is directed at Little Bear, who gets greeted with a happy hug from the little old man. ]
no subject
AS Bruno approaches Little Bear squirms his way out of Lark's grip and gets to his feet. This of course means his head is rather high up on Bruno, but doesn't that mean it's easier to be hugged? Yes it does. He's so happy at how easy it is for his friend who smells like so many plants to hug him. His whip-like tail is going a mile a minute.]
We will delay just a little longer, in case someone else wants to come down. Are you bringing anything in the bucket my friend?
[She likes Bruno, quite a bit. And it was nice not being the oldest human around. Having more people closer to her own age was a nice thing. Even if the man was energetic like a youth at times. Actually, that made him more approachable to her.]
no subject
[ Of course Little Bear gets a good hug and a good ruffle through his fur with Bruno giggling happily at the joy that is so easily shared with this dog. In response to Lark's question, he looks up, but doesn't stop fussing about the dog. ]
I don't mind waiting. And of course I did! I brought snacks!
[ He quickly reaches into the bucket with one hand and, indeed, produces a small brown bag filled with- Well. The potential snacks. ]
Have you heard about sandwiches?
no subject
[Sandwiches? She considers how to respond.]
If I take it from the verb, it sounds like an item where you put something between other somethings, yes?
no subject
[ Bruno gives an excited thumbs up after dropping his bag of snacks back into his bucket. ]
Very easy to make and so many possible combinations with what is stocked in the kitchen! And the best part? No plates needed! You just take one into your hand and- Eat it! Easy win.

Sounds like a decent place to wrap?
indeed

I have heard a bit about Sh'ka but I haven't seen it yet. Even if I don't know pigments would it be possible to join you?
[ Viktor isn't usually asked to carry anything. Probably because he looks like he would be blown over in a stiff breeze. ]
no subject
It would be lovely to have more company. Do you know where the train terminal is?
Since I tossed him into the calibration event I was not sure how I was going to reply to this
[ Victor is polite to a fault. ]
It seems like my skill set is not necessary here.
[ Which is actually a good thing in Viktor's opinion.]

I'd like to offer my assistance. My primary skill isn't Agriculture, but I've been learning as much as I can about it.

Sounds good - he will accept all the fussing
