[oh, is it the thirty-first already? the feed clicks and it looks like john is somewhere having himself a drink.]

You know, can't say I really expected to be spending a birthday here. It happens with war, obviously this time we didn't exactly all volunteer.

[sigh, oh well, he rubs at his neck a little]

So, anyone care to join me for a pint? Or company, I don't mind, I could use some talk that isn't about all of.. well, this.

[ slight gesture to around. he doesn't know what to comment on the people going to their world for resources. feel free to action it up. ]

I think I can be careful. Long as there's not any lasers and trigger traps. [it's a joke but.. yeah he hopes not]

Have you considered putting it out there that you can make weapons?

[A pause.] Nope. None of that. But the rock climbing wall is gonna shoot out flames, just a prewarning.

I mentioned it once, but didn't get much of a bite. I'll have to try it again. I need something to do. [His hands had to stay busy.]

A rock climbing wall shooting out flames. Seems a bit.. over-extreme? [when will they ever need to do that in a war.]

I'm sure you'll find some interested people, I'm only good with a gun so I can't really help you.

The one at camp shot out lava. [Shrugs. Not extreme when you're a demigod, just saying.]

Never tried a gun, but...I can try. If you don't already have one, I mean.

..You do know that some of us are still human, right? [JUST SAYING]

I do, but if you try your hand at one I'd be up for trying it out.

[morsecodes]

Yeah, I know! That's why I made control devices. You can turn my stuff off and it's just a regular, boring old rock climbing wall.

We'll see. If I get some free time from my other projects, I'll give it a try.

Fire does make it more interesting. [le shrug]

Keep me updated then.

action;

[morsecodes]

See? Exactly! And don't worry, there are fire extinguishers around, if you're scared.

Sure thing, bro!

[doctorly]

Oh I'm not scared, just concerned at the chances of my clothes catching on fire. Decent clothes are hard to come across here.
