[She follows along, nodding firmly as she looks around.]

Yeah... there's a lot we don't know.

But that's okay. We're just starting from the beginning. We'll learn more as we go.

[Anyway.......]

How were the arrows all laid out? One of my best friends is a really good archer. I'm nothing on him, but maybe it'll tell us something.

[goalsides]

There we kind of all in a pile? Some of them were actually embedded in the ground though like somebody shot them from an angle according to what Lila found. But it was, like, a bunch of 'em. Maybe every single arrow we have available.

Why would an archer need that many?

[superjock]

The only thing I could think of is if they were trying to shoot a lot of targets.

Or if they're really bad at archery and trying to shoot one thing badly...

[...]

Do we have a lot of archers here?

[goalsides]

[a nod of agreement. the latter is probably more likely, but he also wouldn't put it past someone who make it look like they were bad on purpose.]

I'm not sure how many we have here. The ID cards might have their skills listed, but it's not like they're totally accurate either...I think. I know a few people probably have stuff missing off of theirs.

[superjock]

Yeah... that's for sure. And some of them are just bad jokes.

[She wrinkles her nose.]

You think we should take a survey of skills after this? People might not be honest, but it couldn't hurt just to know.

[goalsides]

What, like send a mass text and see if people respond? It's not a bad idea. Even if people aren't totally honest we might discover some skills that can help us in the future, like more people who know first aid or anything like that.

[that's thinking optimistically, but it's a possibility.]

[superjock]

Yeah! Especially if it's just a friendly survey or something. No reason to really hide anything, right?

[except for the naturally cagey assholes.]

[goalsides]

Right. And if people are hiding something, then that just means we know who to look at if things get suspicious later.

[that's absolutely going to work out for both of you.]

Plus if they're only telling one or two people, maybe they'll be more comfortable sharing instead of telling everybody.

[superjock]

Right. I think so too. [They're bright-eyed and perky-tailed and trying, okay.]

And it's better than just sitting around waiting for more information, you know?

[goalsides]

Trust me, sitting around and waiting's my least favorite thing. So let's start asking around and see what we can come up with.

[good luck with that guys.]

[superjock]

[shhh they're hopeful jock protags.]

It's a deal.

[She reaches out to clasp his shoulder.]

I'm gonna go get started on that--but don't stay out here too long, okay? You need to take it easy, too.

[goalsides]

[they can have a tiny shred of hope. for now. but he looks at her hand for a moment before there's a nod.]

Sure. I'll probably head back in a little while. Thanks.
