[RangerCado]

"Thanks for the help."

((Construction will now take only 20 Hours! Woo!))

[ExKirby]

"My Name is Cado, we're in Dwarf Fortress, we're the dwarves. Anything you can do such as chopping trees, or helping build this butchery will be apprecated."

"...Alright, where is this butchery?" Evidently, the ridiculousness of the situation hadn't quite made it through the fog that was Kirby in the mornings.

Kirby helps with the butchery.

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Are those RL hours?))

[RangerCado]

((No, those are game hours. The days are 12 hours and the nights are 8, so just under 2 days. Turns also skip 4 months.))

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

(Uh, GreatWyrmGold?  Since you don't have any skill in Mining, it's going to take 10 hours to mine through that first 1x1x1 meter of rock.)

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Ah. ...I was guessing. So yeah, this could take a while...))

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

((Ah. ...I was guessing. So yeah, this could take a while...))

(Yeah...)

(I think all the conscious people have an action that would take up the five hours, so without further mucking about.)

-Five hours pass-

The wagon is at the cave entrance.
The Butcher Shop is 1/4 done.
That first piece of rock before the Hematite is halfway dug out.

[ExKirby]

"...so when he woke up, his left hand was missing and the doctor was never heard from again!" ExKirby finished his long joke and pushed some more wood around in the attempt at helping make a workshop. God damn he needed somthing to do numbers on...

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Zanzetkuken grabs a pickaxe from the wagon and begins working on expanding the entrance for the wagon to fit through.

(I would say there are 4 1 meter cubed sections needing to be dug out to fit the wagon in, dirt is 5 hours of mining, and my skill is adequate, so...I would get the whole area mined out.  Maybe an hour to get the wagon inside.  I call dibs on sleeping on the headboard of the wagon.)

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Could we do another timeskip? I think everyone is busy again.))

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

((Could we do another timeskip? I think everyone is busy again.))

(I was the only one who had to do anything, so sure.)

-Five hours pass-

The Cave Entrance is large enough for a wagon to pass through.
The Butcher Shop is 1/2 done.
That first piece of rock before the Hematite is dug out.  GreatWyrmGold is now a Dabbling Miner.

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Oh, I see. Dabbling is a step above No, and not just "some XP but not all the way there.
...Right? Dabbling is better than No, right?))

"Geez, the day's almost out."

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

((Oh, I see. Dabbling is a step above No, and not just "some XP but not all the way there.
...Right? Dabbling is better than No, right?))

(Only 5 hours instead of 10 to mine a square.)

"Geez, the day's almost out."

"Exactly.  Can you help me drag this wagon in?"

[GreatWyrmGold]

"Right."

Help drag the wagon in.
