Help build fires (on different sides of the Eater, so that they cast less/weaker/shadows). Also seperate our motley crew into 2 about-equal watch shifts, if there are no objections. Finally, try to determine how much fuel we have for the fires.

((Building them on different sides will just add more directions of shadow. I would suggest building a semi-circle of fires with the fire side towards us, so that more shadows are going away from us.))

((Try drawing that and you'll see the problem. There's a line of shadow going from her to you if you put them that way.))

((Hm. Realistically, any fire casts a shadow every which way. So maybe just try to keep her warm?))

((Realistically, the sun casts thousands of tiny shadows in the desert during the afternoon off every ripple in the sand. We've been fine so far. Hopefully our suit lights will at least make them not deep/dark shadows, and she'll be kept hot by the fire and lasers. The power of teamwork will save us. And love probably. Hopefully.))

((Yeah, that's the basic idea. We can't fully eliminate the shadows, but we need to minimize them. And can't it only (to our knowledge) possess people that are connected by a shadow or something like that?))

((Watches as they stand:
1st watch (4/4+) - Chief, Gorat, Morul, Sambo
2nd watch (0/4+)
3rd watch (0/4+)
Konrad took a watch without specifying which. Taddok has a different idea how the watches should be organized.

((The Chief's on first watch as well I think. Doing the suit light thing on the other side from me.))

[Dutrius]

I'll take second watch.

Volunteer for second watch.

[Dorsidwarf]

'Sure thing, purple man. I'll keep, heh, vigil with you."
Take second watch. Sleep.

[Beirus]

"I'll take second watch too."
Volunteer for second watch. See if I can intuitively sense any danger or bad ideas.

[Hapah]

((I just don't know that we need 4 watches, really. Wouldn't 2 work fine, with about a 50/50 split of our people?))

[Kedly]

((I thought vincent was on first watch?))

[Gentlefish]

((What about sleep-in-suit man? He's technically on all watches.))

((I just don't know that we need 4 watches, really. Wouldn't 2 work fine, with about a 50/50 split of our people?))

((3 watches, not four. Four is likely overkill, yes, but two watches means everyone gets much less sleep, at currently 12 hours of night. It's six hours of sleep versus eight.))

((I thought vincent was on first watch?))

((Looks like it. I didn't register it since you didn't say watch in your post.))

Gorat, seeing that the first watch has four people in it, moves himself to second watch, giving the rope to Morul.

((Watches as they stand:
1st watch (4/4+) - Chief, Morul, Sambo, Vincent
2nd watch (4/4+) - Dern, Gorat, Jason, Kai
3rd watch (0/4+)
Konrad may or may not be on a watch as needed. Taddok has a different idea how the watches should be organized.
Not yet on any watch: Dubley, Feyri, Han, Hobby, Konrad, Mir, Taddok, Tek. We technically have enough for three watches of five, but lw and Tiruin are a bit missing right now. With Konrad's "as needed" post, that would lock in the third watch as all but one of Dubley, Han, Hobby, Taddok, and Tek, and that fifth one on any watch where needed.))

[Gentlefish]

((Hey somehow I got forgotten yay.

Um. Slot Cecil in on the final watch. He's slow to wake and he'd like to be feeling "okay" when they start moving.))
