Heads up #2!

Anyone who wants to come put out the stable fire, we are a go from tomorrow. I'll stick a post up about lunchtime 14:00 GMT, and be around all day to thread. Post is up; feel free to jump in with whomever you like! It might have a couple of subheadings to separate animal rescue and fire dousing, but it's pretty much do what you like. The whole thing will be started and finished in the one thread, so just use Millitime as convenient if actual threading goes on longer than Friday.

I'm crashing now, but yell out if you have any questions and I'll pick them all up in the morning. <3


ETA: I should know better than to post things at 2am. I've pushed back start time a couple of hours for other-mun availability. Also, quick reminder for reference when playing:

- Only two stalls will have actual fire in them, but it'll be quite strong and there'll be obvious risk of it spreading what with wood and straw about the place. There will be a lot of smoke, and I imagine all the animals will be in some state of panic/stress.

- Seimei is going to douse it once and for all, so all water-threads are millitimed to before that. But feel free to go nuts in the meantime; a final fire-killing post is there to round the thing off, but you can chuck whatever you like at it for as long as it's fun. Pups can worry about it spreading, have sparks fly to other bits of straw and need dealing with, have to leave the place for a while because of smoke inhalation/whatever. 

- as for animal wrangling, we've got some named horses, a thoat, a two headed cow, and there are at least two horses (Duncan and Rachat) that IIRC, don't have specific owners but just belong to Milliways. There are probably horses from retired pups still nebulously around as well - in short, if you want your pup to wrestle a frightened animal inside or outside the stables, just go for it. 

And enjoy! Any questions or concerns through the thing, hit me up here, on email (writetolive at gmail dot com), or PM through Jim's journal. He may well be around helping out, unless there are any mind-reading pups present who'll be able to tell how much he'll be laughing in his head. :\

I'm finally here, long day of errands but I'm thinking of doing an after subthread to keep everything in the same place. Then do an EP of the next day or such, much later with William processing more, he's not happy about any of this.

Sounds good, go for it!

And lol yeah, I think 'not happy' applies to many people.
