WEEK ZERO: MINGLE

[gatonina]

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.

[Muffled from vodka - ]

Think 'm drowning?

[applechemist]

Oh!

[ She looks so happy!! Aaa bunnies!! ]

I'm so glad you're contagious!

[ruffboi]

I thought I knew the end goal! I thought the end goal was destroying magic items that can blow up a whole city!

[Geez!]

She showed us them being destroyed and everything.

[wisterin]

It's not something I've seen before. I'll trust you, this time.

[ i guess

Shinobu is doing the

hokey pokey

because she doesn't know any better. And that's what it's all about. ]

[fishingforcompliments]

You do not have to be. As long as we are both having fun, the level of skill does not matter.

[voidbreaker]

Did the shady organisation lie?

[ get it off your chest, magnus ]

[ruffboi]

Of course, of course! Well, I'm a level 10 fighter and level 2 rogue, I'm proficient in melee and ranged weapons, and I can make you a really sick chair or cute wooden carving?

[ruffboi]

Yes. And he loves me back. Awww, man.

[Taking a swig of booze.]

I miss that lil guy so much!

[ruffboi]

Materials? Like - gold, and sapphires? Maybe. You a collector?

[shixiong]

[ ........... ]

....alright.

[applechemist]

Gold and sapphires and even just rocks and plant-life! For alchemy!

[ruffboi]

I'm always the coolest guy at summer camp, based on my arts and crafts skills alone! And I haven't even peer pressured any teens yet.

[Shaking the bottle of rum.]

You want some, or are you some kinda nerd?

[ruffboi]

If you say so! Guess you'll miss out on those vouchers, man. Unless you want me to teach you a dance you can do on your own?

[ruffboi]

Aww, man. Yeah, I was messing with you, but if you're just gonna take it, it's no fun.

[Slapping him on the back? With so much force.]

Okay, okay. Tell me your cool fact about yourself.

[haw]

[ slowly blinks ]

Did you just tell me yer RPG stats.

[ruffboi]

[Sighing like he's being scolded.]

Yes. It turns out they were collecting them to build an ultimate super weapon?

[ruffboi]

Oh! Well, it did turn out to be pretty good for that kinda stuff, but you'd be better off asking Taako. But there were lots of cute animal friends out there!

[ruffboi]

Yep! I left off a couple things, like all the hit points I have, but pretty much.

[preowned]

[ aha... he nods. ]

The people here come from very different places and backgrounds, and that's not including what we've all seem to have just gone through.

[unpredicktable]

[ that's fine, dick can spoil the bunny on his own even while he listens to dimitri talk. the way he's phrased things, though... ]

They wouldn't be around if people didn't enjoy them. Though most of the time it's for younger kids... [ he trails off, ignoring that he himself is petting bunny. what a good bunny who is making dimitri's life hard, yes it is. ] Enacting them how, exactly?

[ he is assuming dimitri is some kind of royalty from how he talked and potentially reading profiles, but he's still curious. royal decree, there shall be a petting zoo? hilarious. ]

[overruns]

Well, I'd be grateful to continue sparring and learning from you, then. [ He gives a polite little bow. ] I'd hate to let my skills rust for however long we will be here.

[overruns]

[ Dimitri blinks, a little wide-eyed. A literal sword. If only Felix were here, he'd be zoomed in on this conversation like a hawk—but Dimitri is a sword nerd of his own right, and he's obviously intrigued. ]

I admit I'm not sure I entirely understand how that's possible, but, how fascinating... So you—do you have a sword's memory? Can you— [ how does he even phrase this ] are you able to turn into a sword?

[selfinserting]

[It is unclear for a few seconds whether he's going to actually fall over from the contact, but in the end he doesn't quite do that. He definitely staggers forward a few steps, though.]

H-Haha. [Ow.] Well, um, I don't really know if this fits [with the whole 'cool' request], but I kind of - uh, I mean, I know a lot about trees. It was kind of my job a little while ago? Not that the trees were actually my job or anything, I mean, but I spent a lot of time around them. Because, you know, I worked in a state park, so...

[He could have said that in one sentence.]

[overruns]

[ He smiles a little at that, rueful. They were encouraged to talk like this, weren't they? ]

I suppose that's true.

[ He hasn't been 'missing' from home for as long as many of the people here, but he still wants to be back in the monastery hallways. ]

Then let me ask—what sort of place is your homeland? If alchemy is a real concept, I can't imagine what it could look like, if you wouldn't mind painting a picture for me.

[preowned]

I would hope not... it would be hard to eat like this.

[ with majima's fist

on his face ]
