Hey... does anybody know if there's anything to make shoes from here? Like, real shoes. I'm tired of walking around barefoot.

I mean like, real stuff. Not nasty animal hides.

I can try to make you something too if you want. I guess. I'm at the airfield. Hit me up. Or... there's this guy K? He's like a robot or something? I think he can sew too.

You guys all need to dress way better. This is sad.

Like... what do you mean? [ Maddy feels out of her depth sometimes here. She keeps thinking about how Lexie would love all of these people. ] Guess I should've paid attention in school after all... I didn't think I'd actually need any of that for anything.

For starters, cotton trade was one of the driving forces behind slavery in the United States...

[ But she could give an entire class on this question, so she should probably stop here. ]

I wouldn't say you need it. The knowledge is interesting, but knowing what the process is and how it works doesn't make it any easier to put it into practice. I dunno what kind of materials are available here, either. Or how to spin thread, weave, or anything like that.

[somethingintangible]

Mmmmm. I mean, I can sew. Do you think weaving is a lot harder? Probably, right? [ She's thinking about it. ]

[ichoosefight]

I had a hell of a time trying to weave a basket. Sewing skills really don't apply.
