WEEK ZERO: MINGLE

WEEK ZERO

▽ FULL NAVIGATION ▽ LOCATIONS ▽ STATUSES ▽ IC PROFILES ▽ IC RULEBOOK ▽ MURDER PROPOSALS ▽ PCS ▽ CURFEW ▽ AUDIENCES ▽ CAMP STORE ▽ REPORTING

Rise and shine, everyone! At 7:00 AM on the dot, those who are asleep will be roused from their slumber by the sound of a bugle call. It seems that breakfast is now served in the Mess Hall. How nice! It's up to you to decide if you want to continue sleeping or not... But maybe it's a good idea to grab a bite and explore your surroundings. After all, it looks like you'll be here for a little while. Regardless of what you do, be sure to check the weather before stepping outside. You never know when you might need an umbrella! Once you're up and at them, though, there are a few points of interest this week. If you swing by the Director's Office, you will find Black Shadows manning the receptionist's desk or flitting in and out of the rooms down the hallway. This week's tasks are now available, and you can check them out on the announcement board in the waiting room. Should you visit the Camp Shop, Purple Heart will be handling all transactions at the checkout counter. Even camp directors hold down normal jobs, you know. Strangely enough, Winter Wizard doesn't seem to be stationed at any set location. Maybe it's their week off? Oh, well. Seems like if you want to get ahold of them, you'll have to pay your respects to the bunnies. Finally, though all seems normal at first glance... You will quickly realize something is wrong the moment you start interacting with other people. Or, more specifically, once you come in physical contact with them. For the rest of the week, anyone who makes skin-to-skin (or whatever counts as skin, for the non-humans) contact with someone else will find themselves in a bit of a sticky situation. Whatever body parts touched will be stuck together for the next hour, with no way to separate them. Try not to create additional points of contact while trying to cheat your way out of this situation, yeah? That would be unpleasant, for each spot will last an entire hour. Good luck.

[JUST SNORTS]

Yeah, of course. What could go wrong?

[shortforever]

[...]

Actually, yeah. She would be biting both of us right about now.

[Plum probably wouldn't appreciate being picked up either.]

Damn. And having her here would've been a big help too.

[fishingforcompliments]

[CUTE... Flayn looks delighted as Pennyworth headbutts her hand, and immediately sets to giving him a light scratch behind the ears.]

...he was waiting for you when you arrived at your cabin, then?

[wowcool]

[He just smiles that same placid smile.]

I'm here to help as a brilliant detective. Survival is not that important to the role. But as I live, I will use my skills to help you all as much as possible.

[baori]

[ giyuu would hardly say that it's his entire fault in this but there are more matters that he's concerned with—like the little tidbits that he's learning. not much of an appetite, hm? his mind sidetracks for a moment as dimitri brings up his "crimes". ]

I do.

[ he's somber for a moment—he can't help it even if he isn't referring to the island. (he thinks, at least? dimitri would call him out for it differently... perhaps?) ]

It's what I'm trying to do here. [ giyuu will cooperate with dimitri's attempts to get closer to the paper towels. ] Are there foods that you do like?

[survivaltricks]

[Plum was quiet and polite but it was a front for how dead she was on the inside and Akira DOES NOT DOUBT that she could FUCK THEM THE MCFUCK UP]

Well, it was a nice thought. Though even if she were here, I doubt she'd have the same powers she had in the mansion.

[fishingforcompliments]

Do you also have no particular feelings about being called Aki?

[coastal]

[a beat]

I'm more concerned about the two of you going out of line together?

[lili doesn't know the term shitposting but from what she's seen of the two of them it's been a lot of banter back and forth that gives her a headache]

[fishingforcompliments]

It is.

[She misses it a lot, and for her, it's only been two weeks and a handful of days. Alas.]

...well! I suppose we have accomplished that task, have we not? I hope that next time we can talk simply because we want to, and not to earn something from it.

[fishingforcompliments]

Oh! I would like that very much!

[At least she's easy to distract.]

[survivaltricks]

You are a person. In all the ways that matter.

[he hisses, fingers clenching into fists]

Just because some stupid government doesn't treat you like one doesn't mean that you aren't.

[survivaltricks]

[haha!!]

Yeah, it is. But it keeps things interesting.

[coastal]

[lili was absolutely just being rude for no reason.]

You're not wrong about that - what's the point in their mindless games when all we want is to go home? They say it's a diversion to make the time go faster, but I don't buy it.

[shortforever]

Yeah, probably not. But that's why I thought maybe she was stuck as a rabbit. And like, if it was her, we could help her.

[But so much for that thought. Now he's just looking down at the purple rabbit with a slightly grumpy look.]

[okitactless]

Right! A tsukumogami. [Which explains nothing if you don't know what that is, but luckily Yasusada's explained this before, so--]

There's a few of us here. We're the spirits of swords, but our master gave us human bodies, so that we can protect history.

[survivaltricks]

[you know. . . for some reason, it's comforting to hear someone else say that]

Thanks. I believe you.

[none of them are so naive as to believe the other shoe won't drop, but Akira has been trying to hold onto his desire to fight in hopes that he'll be able to find a way to stop it from dropping. even though he knows, deep down, that he probably won't be able to]

[and perhaps it helps to know he isn't the only person who feels that way. isn't the only person to give in and accept whatever is about to happen to them]

If there's ever a way I can help, just let me know.

[baori]

[ he will indeed take a chip....


and eat it.

the taste of it is interesting. he was just expecting another one-note salty snack but the kick of space really changes things up for him. just enough for him to show interest in getting another one. ...not that he will. permissions and all. ]

[haw]

[ he downs the shot as soon as magnus sets it in front of him, and clinks the glass back onto the table. (chris hemsworth voice) another ]

Hm... if I taught you... what could ya offer up in return? I don't offer my services to just anyone, ya know.

[gatonina]

You really do not believe us at all, do you?

[survivaltricks]

[pegasi AND wyverns THAT'S SO MUCH FUN]

I'm not sure which one I'd pick between the two.

[disreguarded]

Nope. Unfortunately.

Maybe our camp overlords will be nice and let me have my ki back again.

[successives]

Is that why you do it? Because it’s interesting?

[disreguarded]

That's a fuckin' good question. There's gotta be some crossover, right? Like we're all here in this one place, so obviously stuff leaks over from world to world.

[voidbreaker]

Wishing another place like this on them feels like kind of a dick move, y'know.

[ ..... ]

Are there even cats around here?

[survivaltricks]

As far as I know, Plum has never been an actual rabbit.

[they even saw her baby pictures, she was just a cute little toddler!!]

. . . while we're here, we should feed them, though.
