You'll all want to start wearing as much wool clothing as possible.
If you go into the pond, it'll likely save your life.
You're welcome.

i'm going to run out of wool clothes with how much i end up in that pond
but i'm getting great at breaking ice from the wrong side

[He's very mad about this situation.]

[demonicmiracle]

Clothing isn't one use only

[RIGHT??? That's why washing machines exist?? Maybe he got this detail wrong about humans.]

Could start carrying a pick axe, too

[ribticklers]

i don't want to do that much laundry
can you swing one of those hard enough underwater to break ice?

[Sans has no idea. He has never used a pickaxe.]

[demonicmiracle]

Better than hypothermia
Wouldn't have to swing it, could sort of just bash it against the ice, then use it to haul yourself out

@sans since I just realized I never specified his username whoops

[ribticklers]

maybe i'll give it a shot
i'm overdue for my latest dunking anyway
they're probably mad i'm keeping all the doors open now

["They" being "whoever is responsible for this teleportation".]

lmao its ok

[demonicmiracle]

I've only gone under once so far, thankfully

[This is a lie, but — it's complicated.]

You reckon it's a they?

[Genuine question, he's curious about what theories other people have.]

[ribticklers]

i guess it could all be random
but someone probably started everything going
or someones
whatever

[It's a very vague theory, but Sans hasn't been thinking about it too hard.]

you really think a wool sweater would have helped in that situation?

( wet wool doesn't sound that much warmer than no wool at all, but honestly he's not a wool expert. )

@daylight, text.

At the rate this keeps happening, I'm going to switch out the wool for a pair of floaties. Willing to share for those who need it.

[ do they have floaties in this time period? he's going to invent them if not, because he fell in one time and, frankly, that's enough times, thank you very much. ]

[demonicmiracle]

I'd just figured God was cross with me

[Hahaha funny joke.]

But, nah, I doubt it's random. Only wish we could work out who or what's pulling the strings.

[demonicmiracle]

There's a reason Norsemen wore a lot of wool when they went out on the ocean.

It doesn't take on water like other textiles and keeps you warm while it's drying

[demonicmiracle]

What the deuce is a floatie

[ribticklers]

the mayor's the one who said he made the christmas village, right?
guess you could start there

[webdesigned]

huh. guess there's a reason my aunt always gave me wool sweaters
anything has to be better than socks. another pro tip: wear shoes even inside, you'll be glad you did if you end up in creepy christmas town

[sunborne]

The greatest and funniest invention made by man. You can float in water safely enough, even if you can’t swim!, but you look hilariously dumb as a consequence.

[demonicmiracle]

That man strikes me as more of a puppet than anything

private

[demonicmiracle]

Sensible lady, your aunt
You aren't the lad that pulled me out of the pond, are you? I'm the Brit with red hair, if that helps

[They've had two conversations and are yet to trade names.]

[demonicmiracle]

Oh, those awful plastic things they put on children?
Don't think they'd help much with hypothermia, though. That's the problem once you're out of the water

[ribticklers]

yeah could be
but sometimes people in charge of stuff are just like that

[sunborne]

Oh. Right. Hypothermia being an issue.

I keep forgetting that’s a thing we have to worry about now. It’s not something I’m used to. Conventionally, at least.

[demonicmiracle]

Fair point
Not sure how we'll find out much from him, seems to always be surrounded by coppers

[demonicmiracle]

[Inch... resting...]

And why is it that you're not used to worrying about hypothermia?

[webdesigned]

that's me, yeah. i figured you might be speaking from experience on winter pond swimming
i'm peter. unless you want to keep it to lad that pulled you from a pond and brit with red hair, but that's a real mouthful

[demonicmiracle]

I've been unlucky a couple times. Your feet alright?
Peter will do. I'm Crowley, if it wasn't obvious.

[Can guarantee he's gonna forget Peter's name and call him "that lad from the pond" at some point again.]

[webdesigned]

you've ended up in there more than once??? you're not kidding, that is unlucky, wow.
as for my feet i got feeling back in my toes after a day or so. i have been sleeping with my shoes on, just in case, and so far so good. what about you, you managed to warm up yet?
