rebells: looking down, blush (beloved)

food co-op stuff, cont.

Remember this? We've gone ahead and sorted people into four groups based on their signups: hunting, fishing, gathering, and farming. You can check the assignments out right over here! Everyone who signed up should be placed into two groups, with a role (teacher, regular member, learner) commensurate with their level of experience! Let us know if this isn't the case.

You can find information about what each group is doing, and their duties, at the above link. Each group also has an IC leader--further questions can be directed to them, since they're the ones deciding what goes on in the group day-to-day! The leaders may have further plans for logs, etc. based on these groups' activities, but if they don't (check first!) non-leader members of a group should also feel free to plan posts of that nature. And of course, smaller team-ups among the group / one-on-one lessons / day-to-day interactions between members and the like can be decided between the people in question.

This post is for plotting related to the co-op! Want to thread out a smaller hunting or fishing excursion with a couple people? Are you looking for students for your character to teach, or for your character to learn from someone? Or do you just want to float the idea of a post for a group excursion? Comment to this post with your characters in the co-op, their role (learner, member, teacher), and tell us how they're doing with their new responsibilities. Then feel free to tag around and plot ideas for how characters could or would interact with one another in this context!

Lastly, in the IC announcement post for the co-op, the idea of starting additional sewing and cooking (especially cooking-by-fire) groups also came up. I'll also be doing a potential interest check for those groups in the comments--be sure to specify whether your character would be teaching or learning!

Thanks for doing this!

so Gaelio is a big, useless space aristocrat who has essentially zero practical, outdoorsy survival skills. The closest he ever got to proper Earth nature was vacation proximity.

Thus, he's firmly a learner in both the FISHING and FARMING groups. He is doing his Best, which is very not good. However, his illusion magic does actually work on fish, and Noctis began from the start helping him to learn with a rod (fish can smell????). Said magic's totally useless in farming, but he's no longer too proud to get in the dirt, so I figure he just... follows instructions???

Uh, probably don't let him and McGillis farm near each other though. Just saying. Otherwise, while he won't volunteer himself for teams, I AM HEARTILY VOLUNTEERING HIM and he won't protest. He needs all the instruction he can get and then some, and he might find below all the Issues(TM) he likes working with his hands.

also good for taste testing he doesn't care. use his body as you will.
