Amber ⚔ 1
[how long has Shirou been here, using the amber every once in a while to talk to a couple of people, but never outright saying anything to the public? almost two months? how much time has passed? granted Shirou isn't much of a 'public speaker' so to speak.
otherwise whenever he finally got a cell phone his contacts list would be rather small. but here was a little different. everyone was just like him, right? they all came from different worlds, those that banded together to take on that snake some time ago (unfortunately he missed the aftermath), and even within his own circle of friends and allies...]
Hopefully everyone I met when that snake came a while ago is doing alright. I don't think there was a lot of time for us to get to know each other with everything going on, but,
[he lightly smiles before blinking into the amber. ...this was working, right? he was fine with technology and he's used it before. but not to talk to...well, everyone]
Ah...well, anyway, for anyone that I haven't met here yet, my name's Shirou Emiya. I'm from Fuyuki City in Japan, for anyone who might know where that is. Nice to meet you all. [what else? this wasn't like introducing himself in school. realizing that, he stops there]
Let's see...
To be honest, I'm not sure what else to say. We're all in the same situation here, but it's only a matter of time until we figure out a way to go back home. I like to think I'm pretty good at fixing things here. [but not just for fixing things] If anyone needs a hand with anything around here, let me know.
[a beat]
Yosh. That shou-
[talking to himself as he taps the amber, he doesn't realize he cut himself off. ah well, it was a start! now what to do for dinner tonight...]

[with his and Archer's seeming limit on how many times they could project swords, they couldn't exactly stand as an armory to give everyone weapons in the first place. so taking a branch and making it stronger, or turning something into a bow for someone to use, the little things with reinforcement could do wonders]
I helped build up the cold storage we've been using to keep some things fresh longer too.

Why would you need electricity to see if an item functions? I don't follow.
[Yeah, the level of technology is a bit different where she's from. Lightning exists to blast enemies and that's that, nothing more.]
I have my own weapon, though it's good to know that there is at least one among us who can provide more. Perhaps such a skill won't be needed, but that's more than likely wishful thinking.
Hm...do you have any knowledge of constructing other devices? I admit, I have a reason for asking. There has been talk among myself and others about an attempt to construct a lift for the Tree, to transport supplies or people who do not wish to use wings.
no subject
Well, some machines run on electricity and others run on batteries, so if a motor is burnt out, it'll be hard to test if it's going to work without some electricity.
[the redhead blinks as Ivaera asks him about what else he's constructed. well, asides defensive armaments and the bracelet he made for his gemstone, he and Archer did work together to create things for that kitchen. what she's asking for is a little different though]
A lift sounds like a great idea. Especially if someone hasn't gotten the hang of flying yet or we don't want to try and haul up heavy things to higher floors.
[Shirou smiles at that]
It might take a while, but I'd be happy to help build one. I've never made a lift before, but if we can find some really long vines for rope, I could help make sure it's strong enough to use for carrying heavy loads.
no subject
That would be wonderful, thank you. I wouldn't suggest such a project without contributing all that I can do it, of course. Whatever we need to gather, I'll readily assist. [Vine-hunting it is, then.] Fuu also mentioned using the snake bones to make some kind of pulley, or the spare wood in the area.
