There's something I've been thinking about for a while now. I want to build an airship. I've been here a few months now, and it feels strange being stuck on one island for so long, especially an island as big as this one.

So, I was wondering if anyone had experience with building ships? Or just mechanics in general, and would know how to make some of the parts? I'm sure there are schematics in the library, though Vyse and Enrique would know that better than me. The main thing I'm worried about is what sort of fuel it would run on, since there don't seem to be any moonstones in Asgard.

Oh, right! Aoto said that the airships in his world were probably very different to the ones I'm thinking of, so I drew a picture of one!







If you help out, we might make you part of our crew! Vyse is the captain, before anyone tries to claim that one.

[...Wow, that....that...]

...That's terrible.

[alphastorming]

Huh?! But I spent hours drawing that!

[argyria]

[He didn't even really read your ad. :'(]

The proportion is all wrong and there's no sense of perspective. How is anyone supposed to understand what you are trying to convey?

[Because proportion is always 100% accurate in Arcadia right]

voice;

[alphastorming]

[Which especially sucks as he's probably one of the only people who would know how to help :C]

Perspective? Proportion? Why do those kind of things matter? It's got the ship and the sky ... and the sunshine! Wait, that's why you don't like it, isn't it? It's a bright sunny happy picture. [You are none of those things, Ramirez :|]

voice;

[argyria]

[Hey, he is perfectly fine with sunshine. You don't get to see it a lot in Valua after all.]

No. I don't like it because it lacks effort.

voice;

[alphastorming]

I put my heart into it! It took hours! You can't just dismiss it like that.

voice;

[argyria]

If your response to criticism is to think of it as dismissal, then no wonder it took you hours.

voice;

[alphastorming]

It's not criticism, it's just being mean! And I'd like to see you do better, mister high-and-mighty Admiral.

voice;

[argyria]

Do better? Than that?

That's not hard.

voice;

[alphastorming]

Go on, then! I dare you. Let's see you draw one right now!

voice;

[argyria]

You're trying to bait me. It's not going to work.

[Ramirez you liar.]

voice;

[alphastorming]

Oh, yes it is! You are going to draw me the most spectacular picture ever, or I will make you eat your words!

voice;

[argyria]

[:|]

And how, pray tell, do you plan to do that?

voice;

[alphastorming]

You'll have to make a video to the whole network, saying that my picture is amazing!

voice;

[argyria]

Why would I ever do something like that?

voice;

[alphastorming]

Because that's your forfeit for losing!

voice;

[argyria]

I wouldn't lose.

voice;

[alphastorming]

If you're so confident, then prove it!

voice;

[argyria]

Fine.

[And then he totally just walked into Aika's pit trap nbd]

voice;

[alphastorming]

I suppose I should wish you luck. You'll need it~

DRAWN?;

[argyria]

[A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME AFTERWARD BUT BEFORE RAMIREZ FIGURED OUT HE BLEW THE LITTLE JACK OUT OF THE SKY.....]



Satisfied?

[alphastorming]

[Aika doesn't even know what to say to that. She just stares at the drawing, the ship floating there regally among the billowing clouds.]

...You just drew that?

[argyria]

It's not as though I can enlist anyone else's help.

[alphastorming]

But ... but ... it's so good.

[argyria]

[...To be honest, he wasn't actually expecting her to compliment it.

BUT "THANK YOU" IS SUCH A HARD PHRASE TO SAY. Especially to one who belongs to Vyse's ilk.]

It's just a picture.
