Welcome to Gaia! ::

Akiko blinked. "Oh! I...I'm sorry!" she stuttered. "I'm Akiko. Yuki-sensei wanted me to come give you all a hand with this stuff," she added. She paced down the line of pipes, surveying the work the other two had done so far. "I don't know how much they want us to do, but a safe bet would be to get a solid line going down the whole way--and one coming back, for the water that's going out." At this point, her mind took over, and she began speaking to herself, though easily audible to everyone else. "But, it'd be a problem if the water decided to run the wrong way. Maybe there's a pipe that makes the water go only one way..." She rummaged around through the pipe pieces looking for something; she wasn't sure what she needed, but she thought she'd know it when she found it. She picked up one pipe that was shaped differently on the inside, and Akiko began looking at it and twirling it around in her hand. As she did, she muttered, "This could work... I'm not sure, I'd have to see it in effect, but that's not too easy to do. So, we can put these in, if they work, and we'll make sure they're connected to the pipes that feed water in--and separate those from the ones that go out, right? I think... and I"m not sure how many of these we'll need. It'll depend on the size of the rooms. But how big of a room will we need, anyway? I guess I can look at the foundations, they might tell me where the walls are supposed to be..." She muttered a few extra sentence fragments under her breath as she went around switching out pipes and adding connections for each room. She hoped this work would go by quickly and that she wasn't making any mistakes...

Aranami, Akemi, and Akiko, too: Assemble Pipe System
The apartments will have running water from the well! However, the pipes must be assembled before they can go up. Assemble the pipes to the well, while people are spreading concrete. This will take two people to do. A lot of hands are needed! [Combine Your Rolls to Beat DC]

Rokugi stepped aside as Yuki began to set up the beams. Stretching his body a little he felt his back stiff as a rock from the strength he was exerting carrying the shovel. The sound of bones falling into place slowly filled him from the inside and he returned to his normal posture feeling much better. The girl Nadeshiko was as simple and normal as he was seeing that she didnt bother about any decorations or at least specific details. " I guess im happy to hear that I really just enjoy open spaces. Just the necessary will be enough then" Once the beams where placed the boy picked up his shovel and walked over to the area. He needed to make sure the concrete was well in place and that the beams where in the right position and holding . He turned towards the girl looking at her with a smile and with a lot of motivation to finish the work. " Ready for this? we are almost done. If we do this right we'll be over in no time." Using the shovel, Rokugi began to set and test the concrete so that everything was in place.


+1 to Nadeshiko as motivation

((Is it possible to do some Passive teamwork? since she is taking a tid bit long to finish. it might help her a lot))

II. Spreading Concrete
With a shovel, pour the concrete onto the foundation that Hamma has marked out. Spread it evenly and make sure its level.

[@Flecha: Yea, go ahead. I'll give you bonus experience for helping her.]

Yuki smiled as she watched Nadeshiko sit down. The poor girl was probably getting tired. The woman was glade that she had asked Aranami to carry her crate to the house instead of the girl now! With a smile, Yuki brought over a small bottle of water from the well. "Take a drink, take a breather," the woman said handing over the hide bottle.

+5 Nadeshiko

"Hmmm..." Aranami muttered to himself as he listened to Akiko's statements. After looking at the part handed to him by Akemi, he smiled for a second, then frowned. "So, I think I get what your saying, but..." He scowled. "Man, I wish this was easier to understand." He muttered under his breath. "So, how will we be sure if it's on right? I mean, cause if we screw this on wrong wouldn't everything go straight back to where it came from?" He squatted on the ground, brushing his hair back from his eyes that were darting from the blueprints to the piece of pipe. Glancing up at the sky, Aranami wondered where the day went. Thinking over the day, he wondered why exactly he was so excited to come here. There had been no training at all, at least, none that he could figure out a use for. Sighing, he tried unsuccessfully to figure out the blueprints again.

Elyk... Make sure to label your points properly... I edited it for you this time, but like Lu pointed out to Maia, even if you have a 0 in the skill or ability being used you still must label it EX: knowledge[0]

Akiko watched as the others interpreted her advice. Akemi seemed to be smiling... maybe? They didn't leave on a friendly note the last time they were together, but she did see some progress. Was she genuinely happy? Akiko wasn't sure. She hadn't been around others long enough to see that sort of thing. She hoped they'd be able to be friends; Akemi was a strong girl with a soft spot somewhere inside. She didn't know the boy, though... it might be good to get to know him. But he did bring up an interesting point about the pipes. "Hmm..." she muttered, glancing over at the blueprints. "Well, they'd have to go wherever the pipe splits... probably two, just to make sure nothing goes the wrong way. The same goes for the pipes back down." She took another look at the blueprints just to double-check her work, but something else caught her eye. "Hey, what's this?" she asked. She put her forefinger along a U-bend and traced it around. "I don't know what this is for, but it looks important. Otherwise they would've just used a straight pipe, right? I wonder what it does. Lemme see if I can build one of them." With that, she sat down in front of the various piles of pipes and attempted to assemble one, pulling the blueprints over to use as reference.

{{Sorry about not labeling my points properly, won't happen again.}}

Aranami looked back and forth between the two girls. "Well, any other parts we need to identify before we finish building the pipes?" Sighing at his not understanding this, he looked down at the blueprints. "So, if we use those U-shaped pipes to reverse the flow, and that other pipe to filter it, then all we need to do is figure out where they go in the system and then build it, right?" He put his hand on his forehead, while trying to figure out what goes where. He looked up at the evening sky, and wondered where the day went.
