>You're looking at my face. There's some facial recognition software in the ease of access area. It should help you understand what's going on.

Cos will do what's essentially a knowledge download; Kate will only feel a tingling sensation for a moment on the inside of her head, and then Cos will have all the knowledge he wanted.

Kate's a geek and a nerd and thinks entirely too much so Cos will have a good idea of AIs, what they can do, AIs in different realities, the ethical ramifications... she doesn't know how to actually program them, of course.

After a minute or two of ..., the AI will respond.

>I think I can see a face.
>But it's not very consistent.

"I think I'd like to learn how to use a gun, Sir. They didn't have any at the Hermitage, Sir." They did, but only one person knows how to use one. In the entirety of the Cult, there's three guns I know of- Percival's WWII-era weapon whose exact type has been forgotten by me, Terrowin's custom automatic pistol and Madame de la Moy's new particle magnum.

Refugee Slave Cabin

Percy is a nazi so I'd guess it's a Mauser C96, which I only know about because it was Han Solo's blaster.

"Yeah, I can teach you how to handle a gun," Justin agrees. "I have plans tomorrow, but we can try something the day after, maybe. Start off with BB guns."

[Earl of Purple]

I'd have gone for a luger, personally, but largely because I know nothing about guns and can only recognise that one and it's German. Although I think it might be a rifle.

"Thank you, Sir. I'll see if anybody else is interested, if it's OK for there to be multiple students, Sir." Justin's the teacher, so it's entirely up to him.

[Rowan Cabin]

>That's likely a problem with the face recognition program, since it's probably not all that good. Once you get a sense for what I look like, why don't you turn it off and see if you can recognize me?

[Lost_Deep]

Rowan Cabin

>Try to stay still, please.

...

>I think I have it.
>Yes, I can recognize your face.

>Now that you can recognize my face, do you think you could recognize Kate's face if it was shown to you?

"Sure, I don't mind," He didn't expect to teach a whole class. He runs through a necessities list in his head. Guns, BBs, paper targets, maybe some rope, hooks, and nails for the targets. Crap, he'd probably have to clear a section of the camp for them with Reelshka. She might not like that. Maybe he could set something up back in Laneside if she doesn't? He'll burn that bridge when he comes to it. "Is anyone else up right now? I know their names, but I don't know their faces."

[Lost_Deep]

>Maybe. Let me try.

Kate will sit in front of the camera, and wait.

The little ... will go for a bit.

Eric sits off to the side, waiting, wondering what will happen with this.

>Well, I suppose you could browse the internet for options. But that might end up as a little oversaturation for someone that hasn't even heard things yet.

[Lost_Deep]

Rowan Cabin

>Kate says that I should avoid the internet until I have developed a certain degree of social skills. Like the ability to tell deception and fact checking.

"On the internet, fact checking is a social skill." Sure it is, Kate. Sure it is.

[Halae]

[Rowan Cabin]

"Heh, fair enough," Eric says, chuckling. He hits a few more keys on the computer

>Well then, let's get Copi to see you, shall we? The more people who want to help that you know, the better.

[Lost_Deep]

Rowan Cabin

>Okay.

Copi moves to the seat, but doesn't type anything. She instead ponders for a minute.

[Dimonite]

[Infirmary]

Lume, seeing Yuki enter and sit, explains to her the conversation he had with the sea elf. "I'm afraid that my usual inability to be tactful may have impaired his psychological recovery somewhat, but he's physically fine.

[McBish]

[Infirmary]

"Oh. I think I have something that might help. I'll be right back."

She quickly dashes back out towards the lake to grab those golden coins with the engravings of elves on them. She figures they might be important to him, and they are easier to bring in then the big chest. She will quickly scoop them up to carry them to his bedside.

Sometime after the event with Levi, Pathfinder will show up to take a seat across from Andy. His body language shows that he doesn't intend to be hostile in the least and even has slightly submissive undertones. If Andy doesn't speak right away, Pathfinder will. "I hope you can forgive me for my behavior the last time we met." He asks of him. "Circumstances weren't the best and I normally have better control over myself."

(Morty said to me that it was okay to assume Reelshka told him about Andy's location, hence the little timeskip if that is okay.)

Main Cabin

((I knew you have less time that's why I did this post and hoped you are ok with the timeskip^^))

I can't say that Pthfinder's appereacne isn't making Andy a bit afraid. He didn't really expect him to just come without asking for another place. I should be noted that Andy has a small paranoia. His mechanical eye turns around, searching the room for anything unusual. The fact that this eye has no iris makes it a bit harder to notice.

Pathfinder might notice that Andy is really afraid of him. Holding the backs of the chair and starting to swat a little Andy stares at the shaman.

"Normally?" he asks a bit confused. The look in Andy's face may tell him that he can't belive that his reaction was not normal.

"I...I think I can fogive you about thet." he sais quiet more afraid as his body asks him to run, but his mechanical parts keep him on place.

[Reinholdt]

Lakeside

Well the evil, despicable Wall posting wasn't so bad. Mostly because there were very few responses. And He's not ready to go to Melody for that favor. For now, Reinholdt decides to return here for a little while and sit by the lake on his sunning rock, in kitty form, thinking about things.

"Of course, Sir. That through there is Lichen, as you've guessed, Sir. It's best not to waken him, Sir, he can be touchy when he wakes up. Anyway, Sir, let's go find everybody else, Sir." Daisy smiles and opens a nearby door and motions for Justin to go first.

Infirmary

The Sea Elf has started to awaken. His eyes widen when he sees Yuki, and he instantly tries to get up so he can prostrate himself at her feet. Given what he's recently lived through, I doubt he'll get that far.

[OrchestraHc]

Refugee Slave Cabin

"Sure," Justin says. He doesn't step directly in though. First he pokes his head in and looks around. You can lead a thief to water, but you can't make him stop casing the joint.

[Earl of Purple]

Refugee Slave Cabin

Inside is a rather spartan room, with very little in the way of ornamentation. There's two exceptions to this- a pair of very lavish, deep and incredibly comfortable-looking beds. A dark-haired man is sitting on one with a wooden board in front of him, trying to guess the next number he rolls on a small plastic dice; it looks as though it came from a board game. A small wooden box lies on a shelf near one of the beds; it's got a simple bronze latch, and anything of value is likely inside it.

[Morty]

[Lake]

Nicholas looks at Salix and meows. He likes the strange-smelling two-legs. Maybe it's the fae affinity for animals. Or maybe he just likes people who pet him.
"There are a few people around who look like humans, but have cat ears and tails," Sophie says. "I got Nicholas recently to keep me company in my cabin."

[Pathfinder's Hut]

The next day, Reelshka returns there, looking rather glad.

[OrchestraHc]

Refugee Slave Cabin

"Uh, Hey. Can I come in?" Justin asks the dark haired guy.

[UncleWolf]

Main Cabin

Pathfinder bows his head, glad that the apology was accepted, but he still feels the need to explain himself. "No, it wasn't normal for me. Or well, it was, but any other time it wouldn't have happened. Do you know what my relationship with Lily Applehill is? Have you heard the tale of what happened to us in the Slaver Caravan? I...I consider myself to be one of her closest guardians, and when she came to me, panicked, scared, and smelling of pain and fear, it sets off something inside me. Any Wolfen becomes hostile to others when something like that happens. I understand you merely wished to make sure she was alright, but that couldn't get through at the time."

Pathfinder's Hut - Keo

After a while, Pathfinder returns, wielding his spear, a pair of daggers in his belt, and a pouch at his side. When he leaves the hut, he smiles at the catgirl. "Are you ready then?" He asks with warmth.

Pathfinder's Hut - Reelshka

Pathfinder has a series of bags packed and when he sees the gobliness' smile, he can't help but return it. "Good news I hope?" He asks.

[DoomITP]

Zero stands up and offers his hand to Valaria to help her stand as well.

Come on. We'll need to get moving soon.

[Lost_Deep]

Pathfinder's Hut - Keo

"Yes,r!" Keo replies, very eager to get started. Keo will follow Pathfinder if Pathfinder starts off.

[Morty]

[Pathfinder's Hut - Reelshka]

Reelshka nods, her smile growing wider.
"Yes. Brinika's parents allowed me to take her on the trip. They trust us to take care of her. And she's really excited about it... she's almost talked my ear off."

[Earl of Purple]

Refugee Slave Cabin

"Of course you can, Justin. Everything of mine is yours. Except this dice, anyway. Oh! I just rolled a five, and guessed three. Would you say that's close enough to count?" The man smiles. "And as I chose my name since last we met, I'm Bramble. That half of the room's Daisy's, and he snores." The box is in Daisy's half of the room.

[OrchestraHc]

Refugee Slave Cabin

The box is a source of curiosity, but how rude would that be to just walk up and open it. Hey Daisy, even though I know this is your room, and you're super nice and grateful to me, I'm going to be a massive tool and look through your stuff. He's honestly a little angry at himself the thought crossed his mind. Stupid Klepto urges.

"Not in a game of craps, no," Justin answers. "And I've heard you've all picked names. Mind if I ask about the dice?"

[Earl of Purple]

"I found it in a closet in a ruin in the woods. There were some small people of the same stuff there, too, though of different colours. Didn't find much of interest in there, though; some rusty coat hangers, a bird's nest and lots of rags. Couple more cabins near by, but I didn't look through those." Justin's pipboy may beep as a location marker is added to it- Abandoned Camp, in the woods not too far from here.
