“…Course you don’t. I don’t either.” He does not understand why this Quackity still hangs around him at all. “If you can find something flammable in Las Nevadas we can set it on fire instead, how about.”

"We can also not do that." 

“Come on, Q, don’t you trust me?”

No.

"It's not like I'm going around doing arson with everyone but you, you're not getting snubbed." 

“Fine. I’ll get Tommy to blow it up with me.”

"The arson you do with Tommy isn't really any of my business, I think. I hope you have fun?" 

“I will.” Wilbur’s just going to wander off then.

Cool. Okay. 

He wants--

He wants a lot of things. He can have none of them. A hug from a friend is not available. Voice chat with his Sapnap is also not available. Sleep... is honestly probably not available, he's still got anxiety buzzing in all his tendons. 

...well, there's one thing he can have. How does one acquire a wooden frame and some cloth around here. If it's that easy to break down stone in a tower can he just, like, hit a tree. 

Hitting a tree: produces logs!

This is so weird. The logs go into his inventory; figuring out how to make a frame with them is a project for later. Actually ideally he'd use bamboo, that's what Phil did, but he doesn't remember if he's seen any around. Cloth he doesn't have any of and has no idea where he'd find. 

...he does, actually, have someone he could reasonably ask about this. Someone he'd kind of like to interact with more anyway, and to pitch on the merits of interacting with him. Heading back to Kinoko. 

Kinoko: is Kinoko. (Sapnap and Karl are around. George is around but asleep.)

He is not thinking about or interacting with Karl at the moment for reasons he is also not thinking about; he flags down Sapnap.

"Hi! I have a project that requires cloth and bamboo, I have no idea where I would find those, do you want to help me." 

“Sure! There’s a bunch of bamboo by the prime path, and there’s string at the spider spawner, I’ll hook you up.”

The prime path ends up being a wooden path that leads past a lot of buildings—smaller than Kinoko or Las Nevadas, and less aesthetically coherent, but more of them, houses and towers and a graveyard and a crater and a museum and a church and some abandoned shops—as well as a bamboo grove! He can take as much bamboo as he wants. Getting to the spider spawner involves jumping in a hole in the ground. It’s a long fall but there’s water at the bottom, and Sapnap seems unconcerned; if Quackity jumps in, it doesn’t hurt at all, and there are chests of string at the bottom. (There’s also a bright red vaguely organic-looking tunnel leading away from the main room.)

It is genuinely kind of creepy how far you can go and not see any people.

Still, he files away the thing about water for testing later. In the meantime: vast quantities of bamboo and string!!! And a red organic-looking tunnel he is going to look at and then not enter! 

"Thank you! If this doesn't work it'll be embarrassing as hell but if it does work it'll be extremely cool." 

“What are you making?”

"A hang glider! Or a first attempt at one, anyway." 

“Oh, sick, can I come see?”

"Absolutely. —Fair warning that the first try is almost definitely going to suck, I have never done this before and am applying trial and error because it'll be so cool if I manage it." 

“Hey, I’m down.”

"Awesome." 

When they get back to Kinoko he puts his jacket and assorted things he actually cares about in his room, and gets working on turning string into cloth (which also turns out to be incredibly easy here, presumably weaving isn't usually that easy?) and tying things together. When he has a result that looks approximately right and feels like it might reasonably hold, he towers up to the roof of one of the buildings, and--

Quackity_V68 fell from a high place

He respawns in his bed in Kinoko.

Holy shit. 

Holy shit! 

He's laughing as he gets up, grabs the things that were in his inventory and the attempt at a hang glider. It's like all the adrenaline boiled away into something he can actually use, and he knows at least one thing not to do. Attempt two! and three, and four, and five, and-- 

He can keep dying all day; Fundy’s put more than a day into the L’manberg space program and didn’t end up with an elytra out of it. He’s definitely making progress, though. 

Then chat will be a solid wall of death messages until he's tired enough that continuing to try seems like it'll go too badly to be worth the attempt, at which point he falls asleep, exhausted. 

And then chat will be a solid wall of death messages again in the morning. 

Sapnap shows off his MLGs for a bit before getting bored. Did you know that he can consistently throw a water bucket in the air with his eyes closed, jump off something backwards, catch the water bucket while he’s falling, and then place the water on the ground so he doesn’t die? It’s true! He can also do this while doing various acrobatics in the air. It’s pretty impressive.

And, eventually:
