"All right, guys--" Johannes was in a good mood. Bruce had been right--this had been needed. The place was much cleaner. It smelled cleaner. It was just lighter in here; and Robin wasn't bad at cooking, though he maybe wasn't the best. Either way; everything that could be keeping him in a good mood was, except for their latest injury. Which brought him to part of the meeting. Great. Once again, he had his notes, so it shouldn't be too tough. He planned to give a copy to Rudolf, in case his signs weren't accurate. This time, he was standing on the staircase in the hall; leaning over the banister. He was beginning to feel a bit bad about standing on a table, now it was clean; but he still wanted to be able to keep an eye on who was in the room. When the lodge had gathered, he gave them a grin. Odd or not; he was visibly happy, and maybe even a bit excited.
"Right--so, you've all worked hard this week. This place looks a lot better. It--because of that, I wanted to--well, we've gotten a lot done, we're safe, relatively speaking. A lot of you guys are new here. So I thought we'd...have a, um--" Here he'd begun to stumble; though he'd thought a lot about this, but somehow, the proposal was a lot trickier. He felt a bit sheepish, and coughed before continuing. "A party. Sort of. Celebration? There's a lotta cooking going on, a-and it's clean, so--I thought it'd be a good time to...let everyone have a bit of fun." To him, the main purpose was they weren't sticking to a rationed diet for the day; but he'd hoped to try and get a bit more interesting. "So there's--we're gonna have a few things--a bonfire cause a lot of stuff we need to toss out after the leak, can get burned and--it'll be nice!" He hoped. Continuing on: "There's gonna be a bit more to it but--we um, have other announcements, so--you'll all see what I mean!"
He paused--the next bit was a little tricky. "So...we've had a--a couple accidents, lately. With--with guns. And that's not--those aren't things we can afford to have...accidents with. I want to add gun training to the regimen--if you're--if you're under thirteen, no guns, period. Otherwise I want you all to learn from those of us who have experience before you're allowed to use them just--willy nilly." He figured that was probably happening; but he wanted to make it official.
"Next--it looks like some of us have been...trying to, um--tame the feral dogs. Good going. I--I'd rather we--do, well--anything to keep ourselves safe. And in hindsight if we can...make sure they trust us and will get food from us if they behave--that's probably for the best. They can help protect us. I won't pretend to know a lot about dogs, but I know plenty of you do. Just--if they're not safe to be around someone without biting, please just keep them away from the kids." He glanced at Rudolf. The guy, and a few others, still had heir injuries. His own were almost healed.
"Lastly. Dahlia, you've been showing a lot of promise around here. Keep up the good work. J--" He paused, biting his lip. "You...have too. Just try to keep out of trouble, but thank you for being so--eager to learn. And work." He glanced around--actually, quite a few, in fact, most of the lodge had been extremely helpful. He wanted to thank more of them--but that was what the celebration was for.
OOC SUM UP:
[celebration is coming, link HERE] (wip)
[no promotions yet but next week there should be some]
[dogs are to be tamed not hunted]
[all members not TRAINED with guns should not have them or use them unless while with someone with experience (Bruce, Snowden, etc)]

Sinking fast,
the weight chained to my feet
No time to argue
with belief
I'm not alone, a thousand others dropping
Faster than me
the weight chained to my feet
No time to argue
with belief
I'm not alone, a thousand others dropping
Faster than me
