// lost gold event spoilers-ish

im getting nerfed by my lack of resources to unlock more locations, mostly fuckin...WOOD. so i changed marius' resource collection to wood bc hes second best at it after luke who is a wood chopping machine. why is marius second best at it tho? is it out of sheer determination?? i dont know anything about marius' physical strength, like he likes extreme sports like skydiving but does he do other stuff? hes a CEO, artist, and grad student. i hope hes not taking time out of his day to exercise too much, because what he needs is SLEEP, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

anyway im currently amused thinking about luke and marius bickering (and bonding, im soft about these two...) while chopping for lumber

luke: youre holding the axe wrong, youre going to get a wrist ache---

marius: i know what im doing

luke: just let me fix---

marius: i can do this

later back at basecamp marius wrists hurt so much. luke gets him a hot compress. marius accepts it silently.

luke: just let me fix it, next time. i know your hands are important for your art

marius, touched but not going to show it outwardly, duh: ...fine

the intricate rituals men do to slowly achieve closeness...
