un: noel | march 9th | soundproofing open forum

Some of you may know Marcel, one of the native construction workers here. Maybe some of you even come to the weekly meetings he hosts, he's one of the best innovators and inventors in the community.

[Not that there's a big chance of that--they're somewhat private, after all, mostly attended by natives and fellow construction workers. Still, he doesn't want a big group tromping around the poor guy's apartment while he's sick, especially since it would risk spreading the infection, so..... well, the best way to take care of his coworker's favor is to take things to the network, as much as he's uncomfortable it.]

He's sick right now, so I agreed to host this meeting for him, and it seems like a good time to open the group up to ideas from the wider community. This week we're talking about how we can improve soundproofing methods, or extend them to things we haven't been able to muffle before.

This is just brainstorming, so feel free to toss out whatever ideas you want I guess? I'll keep an eye on everything to make sure the conversation doesn't take any strange turns.



((OOC: This is an NPC native he's talking about, so feel free to assume your character comes to these community improvement meetings if you want to. Any good ideas we get out of this will come back to the mods and get implemented, so go for whatever you think your characters might suggest! As always with posts like these, threadjacking is expected and encouraged. If you'd prefer it not to happen, please make a note of that!))

Do we have a ready supply of foam or cork available to us?

Cork, I believe, is used for sound dampening, especially in flooring. Absorbant substances like that, porous ones, should help.

Sound dampeners. I'm working on it, but I'm missing a few materials. If anyone can find those for me soundproofing would go the way of the dinosaurs,

About five pounds each of aluminum, steel and copper and I could shield a few buildings.

Haven't had much luck finding large amounts. Now that I have a properly soundproofed space I can melt down an large amount into components, but it's going to take an hell of a lot of wires and USB cords to get me the quantities I need. If you're willing to supply though I'm capable to produce.

Aren't you generous. Drop it off at [wherever the hell his local sympathizer housing is] and I'll get to work. By the way, is there a name I should call you or is Noel literal?

Tony Stark. Or Iron Man since apparently I'm on duty. Any time, any day not Sunday is fine, just follow the map [insert link to map with an highlighted path to his new digs]. If I'm not in, F.R.I.D.A.Y. will take care of you.

All that aside— please tell me the Christmas puns in your name are intentional.

Mall Santa or real Santa as in Rudolph and chimneys? I've seen some things, you're going to have to be more specific.

F.R.I.D.A.Y. is my assistant and she's always in. Multiple places, in fact.

Lmk if this is too much going on throws up hands

[personal profile] flyguy 2018-03-10 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Next you're going to tell me the abominable snow man is your neighbor. How does one have a reindeer as their partner?

[He could be more hypocritical, but he's already on a roll here.]

I'll leave F.R.I.D.A.Y. to speak for herself.

Hello, Noel.
flyguy: (To compare with pure imagination)

Sounds good!

[personal profile] flyguy 2018-03-10 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
I feel like I'm having to reshape my world beliefs here. Since when does Santa fight monsters? I thought you brought the gift of joy or something like that. Wouldn't really know, we didn't have joy at boarding school.

I wouldn't be anyone else. I'm a personal assistant created by Mr. Stark. Water, food, oxygen are all irrelevent to me so don't worry I won't be here to assist you. We're all, after all, in this together. Even myself.
