Of course you smile and agree, enthusiastically. Your solid foundations in Flattery have made possible your advancement to Beginner's Sycophancy!
"Sweetfood sedz it! Kewl souvies commen up!"

You spend the time you aren't scrounging or Ceremonying (no time for Trainan; not if you want to sleep at all)
(you might ask Shitpoo to put that stuff in your butt again that perks you right up, but you have an ominous idea how he might oblige to a request for buttstuff) in making rappels, riggins, footten pegs, and rope.

"Bye Sweetfoods. M off."
"Mm." Pinkie wave.
You notice that youve never been this annoyed by anything like a pinkie wave. Slippuke really is a magnificent bugghole. That pinkie wave is fuggen <span class="mu-i">nuanced</span>.
You're going to try it on someone when you get the chance.

You start with the Ш block first. Five storeys of brickwork. No glass in the window holes, just tarpsheet to keep out the wind. No doors either.
The size of the rooms on the top floors might be classrooms or mass dorms, maybe barracks. Can't say for sure.
Several big utility spaces on the ground floor, maybe for offices or indoor sports or smth. Only the kitchen seems to be operating, but on a personal scale; 1-3 persons cook here regular, at most.
>lewts rolled, 2, 2You shove what's good into the Pouch, not much: couple bricks, some marking chalk, broken broomhead, something's handle, handful of fag-ends. Not much.
You take a break in what will be a sleucey (toilet and washroom: pools fed by pumps, body washing and poop flushing done by bath ladles), eating an onion like an apple.
You're almost sure there's more stuffs around - workmen always have their stows and cubbies for tools and supplies close by where they work - but youve not come across any, and there's still another building to do.

There's a small armory here but it's shuttered and locked with two padlocked drawbolts. The armsmen (if they've been appointed at all) will have one padlock key each; the Master of the grounds should have both, secreted.
You'd make some kind of attempt at peeking in, or filching something from a ventilation slot with a wee hooky on a string, but you can't see inside and don't have time to fish blind. Shouldn't be much in there anyway, or the armsmen would be sleeping right in there.
