I find myself in need of a bit of walking-around money. May we talk about trades?

[ Locked to Erik, also open to Raven ]

You're not the Erik I know. I'm not the Charles you know. We can leave it at that.

My name is Charles Xavier. I am one of the awakened, from the ship. As far as I know, we are all from different times, and perhaps from different universes as well, and none of us knows how we came to be asleep on an unfamiliar spacecraft.

Has anyone a theory to present?

And one more thing. This may seem like an odd question, but... is there a large population center, nearby? I don't mean under the dome.

[ ooc note: Charles is talking about Israel's mind, which feels to him like a large population center even though it isn't. ]

Trade is what I'm here for.

Money isn't exactly something we have. Salt and spices are highly valued and easy to carry. Oh, and soap, if you happen to know how to make some. I'm guessing you don't have any of that.

Food, then. Credit.

I've nothing on me to trade.

I might have something you can do in trade. Got any skills?

[Locked]

[radars]

A few.

Some that I'd think twice about hiring out to the highest bidder.

Ever work with brick and motor? I got a project that needs to be finished. Rebuilding part of an old structure here. Not to big. We need a new storage silo.

I'm not an expert.

I'm a geneticist. A former soldier.

Don't need to be an expert to lay down bricks. Grab a few friends and finish the project for me and I'll give you each a month's worth.

Very well.

Where should we go?

Behind my place. Can't miss it. There's a big sign that says "Edmund's."
