The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round, the wheels on the bus go round and round…until they suddenly stop. Just as quickly as the bus ride started, the sudden jolt of the bus hitting the brakes may disrupt you from your current activities (whatever those may be.) It’s hard to determine just how long you’ve been on this road trip, but some of you may be able to tell it’s been nearly forty-eight hours. Where could you have possibly been traveling?

Worry not, dear travelers! Why, if you’ll wait one moment, the doors of the bus will gently open…

…and the floors of the bus will tilt, spitting every single one of you out onto the ground with little warning before the doors slam closed and the bus begins to drive away.

As you gather your wits and regain your bearings, the first thing you may notice is the very distinct scent of pine and the lingering scent of rain in the air. Beneath your feet, the words BUP STOP have been spray painted into the dirt and above you a large wooden sign proudly declares that you’ve arrived at your destination.

Welcome to CAMP GATONINA.

Well-maintained greenery surrounds the area with trees as far as the eye can see, and a dirt path seems to lead straight into camp. Fog looms in the distance, though perhaps that’s from the rainy weather. Come along, don't be shy. You’re welcomed here, after all!

As you make your way forward, you’ll soon be greeted with the sound of a bright and almost cheerful voice that seems to be amplified somehow, gathering the attention of all.

"Right this way, ladies and gentlemen. Your lovely hosts await!"

A cloud of fog parts, and in the center of the path sits a three-tiered platform. Three figures stand on the platform before you, two of whom hold a white basket with depictions of the sun. Despite looking directly at them, it’s hard to make out the features of these three outside of their very unusual outfits. You’ll have plenty of time to explore the camp later, but for now it seems that the figure in the top hat has a megaphone in hand and an announcement to make.

"That should be all of you. Let's not waste time, shall we? You'll need these sooner than later, I imagine."

The figure with the top hat begins to call out names as the other two figures hold onto the basket, using their free hands to distribute small keys with different wooden keychains shaped like animals. When the final key is distributed, the megaphone is lifted once more as the figure without the basket gestures to the space around you.

"Welcome to Camp Gatonina. We look forward to your stay."

[ooc: for the sake of your mods, please choose only one NPC to speak to for now! Should we feel confident with our tagload, we may open this up to more tags later, but don't worry! There will be more opportunities to speak with them in the future...

Please be sure to read all of the new information provided to you! In addition, please keep in mind that this is not the week zero mingle! A new mingle will go up tomorrow to officially begin the game, so please do not use this post to toplevel regarding the new locations! You may, however, PC to your hearts' content ♥]

[ yeah his assistants always framed him for murder. ]

Did you not feed them enough?
slobjection: (so here's some free advice)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Think so? There are more jokes on these things than anything.

Fair enough.

[ they can come back to it at some later point if it comes up. ]

The three of you ... do your duties and abilities differ?
wowcool: (7...)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-08 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Jokes?

[He points to his own profile.]

Honestly, to me, it's helpful. I didn't even know this much about myself. I would've liked to have it before...
axilium: (okay then)

[personal profile] axilium 2020-06-08 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
... So who owns the camp, if you weren't the first ones here?
chaoticlootral: DNT (stoneskin;)

[personal profile] chaoticlootral 2020-06-08 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
I did make a fun little frame out of popsicle sticks though.

[Yeah. What the fuck.]
axilium: ("he may look like a gentleman")

[personal profile] axilium 2020-06-08 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[he takes it.]

You are officially my favourite for the next hour.
wowcool: (Default)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-08 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Awwwww.]

Okay. I really want to see it with you...when will it be open?
slobjection: (when it comes to)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Glad to see your experiment was a success, then.

[ it's fine, it's his lot in life, he's accepted it ]
chaoticlootral: (tongues;)

[personal profile] chaoticlootral 2020-06-08 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Something something about T-shirt sales and billing percentages. Does it matter? Still tried to frame me for murder. Think that discounts your workplace grievances.

But why is it like that.
givethemhell: (to the end of days)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-08 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[He just beams!]

Wei Wuxian is fine enough! I don't mind much what people call me, either way.
daifukus: (12)

[personal profile] daifukus 2020-06-08 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ he huffs a breath of laughter ]

Not personally, no.
chaoticlootral: (clone;)

[personal profile] chaoticlootral 2020-06-08 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Eh, the dragon would be fine. Better than murder, anyway!
slobjection: (don't be a lawyer!)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
[ gestures to his own profile.... ] Jokes. In bad taste, some might say.

First time I've heard of one of these actually being helpful. Had to happen at some point though, right?
givethemhell: (boredom)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-08 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
[TWO FRIENDLY PEOPLE, FRIENDLY-ING AT EACH OTHER.]

Haha, kind of you! A big heart indeed. [His head cants a little as he considers.] I can certainly imagine that it's a hard adjustment to make. Kind of you to open your doors for us, though. You don't anticipate the arrival of anything else, do you?
chaoticlootral: (tongues;)

[personal profile] chaoticlootral 2020-06-08 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Then why are you calling yourself a wizard! It's a well-defined class! Might as well be Fall Fancytricks or Summer Spell-less.

[Taako is also! Rolling his eyes! This is going so well.]
wowcool: (10)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-08 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Do you work for one, then? Or are you tied to one?

Nah, watch, I'll punch the hangover right outta you. One good right hook like the one I gave him and bam, sober in minutes. Money back guarantee!
