*His arm has been de-slinged but it's still be-casted.*

*Tells the handmaidens he'd love to stay and chat but really has some important work to do so really has to be going.* :S

*Goes to Vingilot to assess exactly what needs to be done and make a plan.*

*Will not cry.*

*trails along behind you*

Anything I can help with yet, dude? :s

[gil_estel]

*walk around and looks at the prow critically for a few minutes*

Take a hatchet and cut the figure-head off the prow. It's ruined, I'll have to carve a new one. :\

[aranwion]

*digs up a hatchet and goes to work*

*winces with each swing*

[gil_estel]

*sighs*

Maybe I'll make a plinth for it...stand it in a corner somewhere...

[aranwion]

*takes care not to nick any important bits*

*clears his throat in a very this-is-me-just-clearing-my-throat,-not-trying-not-to-cry way*

[gil_estel]

*Pats* It's okay, it'll be...well, it'll be nice to have another go at making a figure-head. A change is sometimes good and I'd definately carve it differently this time. So it's not all bad.

[aranwion]

*sighs*

I 'preciate the effort, dude, but why don't you just go home? This is totally not helping you out any. I can take notes on everything and bring 'em back.

[gil_estel]

Are you sure? Uhm, well okay. Main thing to check is whether the frame is damaged as well as just the strips of the hull. I think the frame is all right or at least I hope it is or I may as well rebuild the whole bloody thing.

[aranwion]

'Kay, 'Rendil-dude? No offense or anything, but I can handle it. Totally. I, like, totally know what to look for here. And getting in as many egregious shipwrecks as I have, you kinda get used to assessing the most heinous damage.

[gil_estel]

*nods* Yes, yes of course you do, sorry. It's just she's my baby. :(

[aranwion]

*pats* Totally understandable, dude. Now go home and maybe take some Valium.

[gil_estel]

Right. I think I'll go home and...get started on making some oakum. That's suitably mind-numbing. Sinus-numbing too.

[aranwion]

Sounds like a plan, my excellent friend. I'll be back with the list before you can say "SanDimasHighSchoolfootbalRULES!"

[gil_estel]

Um. Yes. Jolly good. I'll see you later then.

*waves*

*gets to work surveying the carnage damage, deep in concentration*

*is going to need more paper* :s
