Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 10:56:33 AM)
Mads arrives in his truck and emerges slowly as always. He surveys the grounds, making his way towards the concrete slab, his icy blue eyes assessing information and processing it wordlessly

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 10:58:03 AM)
*captain Jack was making his way towards the main grounds from the direction of the Black Eagles training camp*

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 10:59:54 AM)
He straightens, stopping as he sees the unfamiliar face, and waves to get Captain Jack's attention.

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:04:34 AM)
*He looked over at the person and moved towards them with a friendly enough smile.. He was a bit of a brutish looking guy but he had laugh lines around his smile and he didnt look that old in years.. Had a easy approachable demenor*

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:09:34 AM)
His voice is crisp and he speaks in clipped tones - english is clearly not his first language.

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:11:13 AM)
*He smiled at Mads* nice to meet you.. *he offers mads his hand* Im Captain Jack local tribal elder, though im actually a adren, how ever im rearing close to athro, been really busy lately, gonna have to make the trip to challenge soon.. Though im running loose at the mouth so guessing im a skald and all is likely obvious.. *Then before he went on rambling more he waved himself off* never mind me, I just been running a little ragged lately, nice ta see ya..

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 11:12:40 AM)
*Pulls up and parks his bike, getting off and walking over towards the Captain*

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:14:54 AM)
Mads listens to everything Jack says, without interruption. He even gives Jack time after speaking to process what he's heard, before talking himself. Though Mads himself seems to be the opposite, getting directly to the point. 'So you are the one to talk to about building here?' He says, getting directly to the point.

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:15:43 AM)
(guys im sorry i spaced out there just when i saw the news people on my front porch due to gabby barking like a loonatic i wanted to know what the hell they where doing on my front porch haha)

*He looked at mads* yes they wanted to build a big lodge I was told, but.. *he looked towards it* not much has been done.. (as its showing 0 rolls aquired)

'If I may?' He asks, sinking slowly to both knees beside the concrete slab, and pulling out a piece of thick chalk from his back pocket. He makes a grimace to discover the chalk is pink, but waits for permission before drawing anyway.

(But, IC)

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:25:24 AM)
He draws three rectangles, forming a rough U shape. 'This, I think, would do good for a main building.' He gestures to the concrete slab. 'Like what you have here.' But Also it would be wise, I think to have other buildings. Especially if you have women with children here.'

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:25:26 AM)
(i belive its not ideal, they have all the workings as you see for electric water and such )

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:26:34 AM)
*He nodded to Mads* your free to work on it, everyone is chipping in to build it, getting things done is going to take "tribal team work"

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:27:15 AM)
I can do some repairs and such, im good with wood, patch up boats enough in the past

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:27:16 AM)
'If you want a traditional style building with modern amenities, like elise was mentioning a kitchen, it would be good to have a commune-house. But I think also, it would be good to have an open building, for gathering, like the lodge that has been proposed. But that, I would not put on concrete.'

*Heads over to the two of them*

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:34:43 AM)
He draws a circle in the third building. 'Here also I have seen many of the true fighting. Often in open ground - I would put this within; if the intention is to have children around, it is good to have it away from where children would be. I would like to see this as well.' He says, continuing his explanation, and looking up at scratchy as he approaches. He stops talking, lowering his hand and awaits permission to continue when the big wolf returns.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:34:48 AM)
(er, arrives)

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 11:35:32 AM)
*Takes out a cigar and lights it, taking a few puffs* What's goin' on?

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:38:28 AM)
*He looked at scratchy with a nod of his head then motioned to mads* hey scratchy has done most of the work ya see here so far, im sure he could help you out with this.. *then he looked at scratchy* tell me did you come here for something?

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:38:40 AM)
Or just come to do more work on the buildings?

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:39:19 AM)
'Scratchy...' He says, looking up at him. 'Anneliese's mate?' He addresses the fenrir curiously.

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 11:40:21 AM)
I was gonna work on them some if you weren' around... but I've come ta ask ya ta give my my challenge... fer makin' Anne my mate all official like.

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:42:27 AM)
*he listened to scratchy and smiled brightly* Oh yes and I have the purrrrfect challenge for such a thing

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:42:55 AM)
Mads eases up slowly from his kneeling position, and pockets his pink chalk.

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 11:44:07 AM)
*Waits, looking serious, taking the cigar from his mouth as he waits for the details. He'd do pretty much anything for Anne, so he's prepared for the worst.*

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:45:02 AM)
*he thumbed towards Mads* see this one right here.. *then he motioned to the drawings in the pink chalk on the slab of concrete* he has some good ideas for the fenris lands.. He being a aetling to the fenris has thought of the children, the mothers the other aetlings in the designs and the different areas that should be built on the lands, it is fine if the warriors go take a crap in the woods, but a expantent mother who needs to make water every fifteen minutes and is carrying a round belly should have a place to do that..

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:46:41 AM)
being mated means you have to think of your mate, and children, leave something lasting behind for all, and be able to "work together" towards common goals, you are extending your family, these are our tribal grounds, work on getting the tribe to all work together you may need to make compromises trust me you will need to make those when you are mated as well.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:47:05 AM)
Mads dusts his hands off, watching the true talk without a word.

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:49:02 AM)
*He motioned to mads* help him find the best way to make this work for all involved, and aid him in getting this place off the ground, and get some of your tribe mates to help, ralley the forces and build the homes your tribe will live in, perhaps your own child and mate one day will need the protection of the tribe, and this will be the place they will find it.

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:49:59 AM)
(think thats a pretty good challenge and one worthy of what you asked for yes?)

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:53:36 AM)
Mads eyes widen a bit in his surprise as he's brought into the discussion, looking between the true, but he does not speak just yet.

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 11:54:45 AM)
*Nods and looks at Mads* So what ideas ya been tossin' aroun'?

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 11:56:34 AM)
*he grinned at the two of them then looked to see what mads would say to scratchy*

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:57:14 AM)
'Three buildings. One with a dirt floor, like a traditional lodge and the fire pit. One modern, so that we can have the things like a modern kitchen, and so the children can have their distractions while the adults do tribal business. Also to manage the amenities that we have here.'

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 11:57:24 AM)
'Then a third, for training.'

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:01:06 PM)
Hmm... you think a building would be able to handle Get training?

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:01:49 PM)
'You make it right, yes. Solid floor that can be washed of blood. Wide, open, easily replaceable walls, like... what is called.'

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:01:57 PM)
'... the bended, thin metal.'

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 12:02:00 PM)
*He smiled at the two of them then raised a finger* if I am no longer needed, I do have some stuff to do..

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:02:25 PM)
See ya Cap.

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:02:38 PM)
I don' really want to work on metal on the buildings much.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:02:48 PM)
He nods at Captain. 'Well met, Captain.'

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:03:06 PM)
He shrugs. 'Then make them sturdy bricks. Replace component parts.'

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 12:03:14 PM)
(you guys want to make a crafts roll now i will witness it)

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 12:03:39 PM)

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 12:04:33 PM)

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:04:46 PM)

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 12:15:18 PM)
yes there are some supplies but most you have to aquire yourselves some how!! Which was also part of the building process, people working together to get it all done. )

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:16:05 PM)
(My plan was to acquire it through my resources 2, one of my allies, and salvaging myself through my contact the scrapyard owner)

Captain Jack (Apr 5, 2011 12:17:14 PM)
(thats a good plan and remember there is still some areas of the city that have not been searched through some buildings with working toilets and sturdy doors bath tubs or showers that can be easily installed as you are building.. a truck to do some of that would save you tonz of money)

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:26:04 PM)
The consensus earlier was ta build one large lodge... a nice long wide longhouse.

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:26:25 PM)
I've talked to a few kin who will be helpin' us... some o' the true said they would too.

Nah... jus' makes more work

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:28:49 PM)
I dunno that we need a training building... a training yard would be good enough... mebbe with somethin' ta keep the weapons dry under if it rains.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:29:58 PM)
'A long house isn't terribly... functional.' He says, trying to explain while being polite. 'And I have seen what is desired. You want modern amenities while honoring your old ways. I respect that. But you cannot have both in a long house. There is no room in longhouse for a fridge, or a kitchen, which is what the women I have spoken to seem to want.'

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:30:21 PM)
'Nor is there a place to put the children, and the women all seem to have children, or be carrying.'

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:30:31 PM)
'So two buildings seem best.'

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:32:59 PM)
*Shrugs* I don' mind havin' several buildings that er connected... you know... we might wanna have some tunnels under them connecting them... an' mebbe even leading to a hidden place further away that the kin can escape through if there ever comes a need fer that.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:33:43 PM)

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:40:57 PM)
'We can always look into it.' He shrugs amiably.

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:41:03 PM)
We'll hafta see where the water table is here... how low.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:45:24 PM)
'Probably wisest course of action. Plus also there was talk of a garden - wise for herbs, but also to make sure we are sufficient in the food we have. I assume the true will provide meat; but it is good for the Ætlings to have things to do.'

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:48:15 PM)

Scratchy McPhearson (Apr 5, 2011 12:56:53 PM)
I was jus' gonna build the longhouse fer starts. But other buildings would be find too... I think it might be good ta connect 'em somehow.

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:58:28 PM)
He smiles. 'And we will. Build them in a half circle. Put a little roof over each

Mads Jacobsen (Apr 5, 2011 12:58:54 PM)
'Walkways, even. But there's no need to go underground.'
