In the cargo hold of the shrieking ship...
Sigmund closes the book on divination, judging it to be pretty useless, then opens up the book of bindings.
Ah, this seems to be a spellbook rather than a manual. It contains a whole lot of binding spells, though they seem to be purely physical bindings rather than something related to the soul. Might be a nifty thing to try if he felt like it, though it would presumably require attunement and quite a lot of practice to get just right.
On the deck of the shrieking ship...
Kevin, terribly mangled, yet still too proud to beg, asks if there is some way he could make himself useful.
"So, is there anything I could do?"
The Artiste, finishing a strip of bacon, looks at him.
"Maybe you've got an idea what to call this ship? The Captain's forgotten."
"It PROBABLY wasn't a MEMORABLE NAME, anyway!"
At the Brotherhood of Fine Furniture and Other Odds and Ends...
Niklas, wondering what might be the issue, tries to remove the chairs from the area as efficiently as possible.
[Niklas strength roll: 3]
It takes about half an hour for him to do this, considering that he lacks hands and the things are damn heavy, but he manages it eventually. Now that the chairs are outside, Niklas tries to assimilate them once more. This time, it works! The five chairs regular chairs are now placed on his... shoulders, he guesses - well, now he has shoulders, anyway - and he has steel chair hands of spiky destruction as well.
This spectacle does not go quite unnoticed, Niklas observes. A few people are standing around and gawking at him, looks like.
At the Feisty Jelly...
Scott is afraid that he cannot be more specific, sadly.
"Just weak. The stuff laborers drink all day to keep hydrated without having to resort to drinking water." he says.
"So you just want some vaguely alcoholic swill? How much of it? In bulk as before, or a bit less?"
On a telepathic ship...
Morton has to admit that he's drawing a blank.
~I'm dreadfully sorry to relate that I haven't, Captain. I hadn't gotten out much I'm afraid, I was rather sheltered in both of my chances. Only now have I started to explore my surroundings, something that I wish I had done earlier.~
~Oh, you don't have to be sorry. At least you're learning something.~
