[Iiiit's .. text.]

In the interest of clarity for new arrivals, myself among them, I have a few questions that may seem blatantly obvious to everyone who's been here longer.

Am I understanding correctly that many of us here are being transformed into something else, much like the rain's temporary effects had on us recently?

Is this likely to happen to everyone?

Does it have anything to do with the brands we have been given? 'Runes'

Does anyone know how to repair a broken driver's side window for a M939 truck?

Finally, if you are obviously nonhuman, changed or naturally so, please leave a note as to what you look like so I know you are considered an ally and not an active threat.

Given the creatures that attacked in the storm, and earlier messages suggesting they may have once 'been like us', I do not wish to make a mistake.

Professional secrets?

[He's seen Jolie, but he's not sure if she would be considered a young child. She looks like Fred's age maybe.]

Where will we obtain the steady supply of ammunition to spend on regular gun training?

[Levi had mentioned he had limited ammunition for his rifle previously, when they had been travelling through areas even more devoid of humanity's remnants and he himself has yet to find a usable gun.

Well, ultimately his belief is that it is a choice. But there isn't a choice if there is no one who can teach them with the supplies they have. And he doesn't entirely disagree with Sephiroth either.]

Will you offer training then? It's their choice to learn, but there is no choice without someone willing to teach.

Making bullets is not overly difficult given the immense amounts of scrap metal we keep encountering, and gunpowder is simple enough as well once enough potassium nitrate can be sourced.

I am not suited to instruction. But I will do what I must to see to this caravan's survival, if that means teaching then so be it.

[wereperrito]

much easier yes!

if you have any questions about any of it I'd be happy to try and answer them of course, as much as I can

[hexrot]

More harm than good comes from it.

[Good! He isn't suited to instruction either but if Sephiroth does indeed make the offer later, Serph makes a mental note to show up; maybe he can glean something that will help with his own teaching of Jayce.

And with all that sorted, Serph doesn't see a reason to respond further.

WHOOPS! I thought I got this. apparently I forgor

I do wonder how many the Convoy can feasibly carry, however.

If this pattern continues and more new arrivals join us, there's a genuine risk that we hit capacity.

Obviously, that's hypothetical, but in the event that this becomes a cyclical pattern, it likely wouldn't hurt to prepare more thorough introductory resources either.

[firstsoldier]

Is that not why we are all assigned individual vehicles? Eventually I imagine we'll be expected to keep our belongings and sleeping arrangements off the convoy itself, which will remain for more group oriented purposes such as meals and bathing.

[undyingcrow]

Unfortunately, a motorcycle doesn't make for the most accommodating sleeping arrangements, so I'll have to rely on the convoy for that, or salvage a tent at some point or another.

But I suppose if nothing else, I have seniority.
