Rebuilding [Open]

[hfm_npcs]

[A few days after the Nox escaped the sewers and the Mayor sends out her missive, construction crews are on site at the college campus, beginning repairs on the sinkhole. While they're grateful to the outsiders using their magic to keep the Nox away, they're still a little leery of them. With everything that's happened, can you blame them?]

[Whether you're there to help with construction or security duty or just walking by to see what's going on or to bring your hardworking friend lunch, it's definitely an interesting place to be. Maybe someone has theories about how the Nox got out of the sewers...]


[OOC: This is a mingle log! Feel free to start your own subthreads and talk things out. Let us know if you don't want NPCs in your thread; otherwise, you'll probably get some.]

You're learning on hard mode, man. How do you practice a thing you can't even see? I don't fucking know, but here you are giving it your best shot. I bet you'll have your shit locked down before I do. I still end up five feet to the left if someone startles me from behind.

[ It feels like tipping a hand to say that, you don't give up weakpoints like that in the program but- there's no leaderboard. There's no project. There's just them, in this place, making shit work.

It's just Wash. It's ok. ]

You'll get there.

[On one hand, he appreciates the reassurance; on the other hand, it takes a lot to break through the spiral of negative self-esteem that he's had since Freelancer, and one bit of encouragement won't be enough to do it.]

[He's still not good enough. He still needs to work on that. Full stop.]

We're all learning on hard mode, York. It's not like Lux bothered giving anyone a tutorial when we got here. [He shrugs.] My best shot doesn't mean anything if I can't get it to work when I need it to.

I haven't seen you cock it up when it matters. [ Mostly cuz it hasn't really...mattered. Yet.

But Wash knows his shit, he'll get it. ]

Worst comes to worst I can get us out of most anything as long as I can see more than ten feet away. We'll be fine.
