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.

I should warn you that not much I have to say is nice.

[i guess Akira is here, also in a towel, it's fine he's used to public bathing?? but also]

[the alien]

If you don't have any drains then where does the water go?

[fishingforcompliments]

dance party;

[The outfit Flayn found in her cabin is literally made for this. She's here, she's read the notes with the tasks, and she's practicing her dance moves. She's actually not terrible at it? Huh.

Anyway, she beckons whoever happens to be passing by to join her. (Yes, whoever. No one is spared this, even if she doesn't get along with them. Especially if she doesn't get along with them, actually.)]

Come, dance with me!

cleanup crew;

[Ah, the kitchen. Her nemesis.

Flayn surveys the room with an appraising eye and nods to herself, and then sees some poor sap who is about to be roped into cleaning with her. She calls out:]

Excuse me! Would you mind helping me with this?

chit-chat;

[No one is escaping the small talk.

Whoever you are and wherever you happen to be, Flayn is coming over to say hello.]

Good [morning/afternoon/evening, just pretend whichever is most appropriate to what time you want it to be is here]! Would you mind talking with me for a little while?

wildcard;

[Any if this can work for any day of the week, really, but if you wanna do something different just hit me with whatever! I'm also totally open to private convos. Grab me on disco or over at bloodthirstiest if you wanna hash something out first!]

[well, belph already volunteered to help to build up some goodwill points with lili, so. admittedly, he's not great at the muscle part, but he's good at working out the design of how the thing'll actually come together and at anything that does not require a great deal of arm strength.]

I feel like the chicken's getting more leg space than anyone else around here.

[chaoticlootral]

I. - ALL WEEK

[Are you a good-hearted adventurer seeking your fortune and also prizes with a little cleaning? Well, fuck you. Taako's in here and he's glaring absolute daggers at you, especially if you're getting in his way while he's trying to do. Whatever it is he's doing? It seems to involve a lot of tiny little bowls.]

I am so sick of this! Get out! Seriously! Get the fuck out! Too many - hah - too many cooks in the kitchen!

[Has anyone considered maybe he's the source of the mess.]

II. ALL WEEK

[Sidling up. Is there really much preamble necessary.]

No Scrubs or Genie in the Bottle? Your choice, homie.

[No further clarification.]

[survivaltricks]

[ah]

That's okay. I won't hold it against you.

[lightly teasing! but also he's giving Belph a concerned look. are you okay pal]

[disreguarded]

Because now you can't fuckin' escape dancing with me. [ beau says, grinning. ] Come on. You can deal with my stupid ass for an hour. We're roommates.

[axilium]

I don't dance.

[unfriendliest]

fight club.

[ i said i'd do this and i'm no coward so no touching curse is going to stop me. he wears layers and also gloves, it's fine. find kara on the sportsball courts, going through practice maneuvers with his sword. maybe you're his partner today? or you're welcome to watch as he flies solo, but eventually he does turn to you if you're just hanging out, eyebrows raised questioningly. wanna fight? ]

bunnies.

[ the chickens are taken care of, properly petted and fed and everything. it's time to meet the bunnies. kara will just be in the director's office, hanging out on the floor with the fluffs and petting whichever is closest, all while ignoring the npc who is technically working here.

when you come in, he'll look up and address you. ]

Oi. Hand me the food?

[ and hey. stick around long enough, and you might even be lucky enough to witness (GASP) a smile?? ]

tasks.

[ the easiest place to find kara for this is, obviously, the kitchen. he'll be in there around mealtime, cooking and cleaning up. he won't mind company for that, as long as you don't make a bigger mess!

otherwise, find him staring at the announcement board in disdain. ]

How is dancing or talking going to solve anything?

wildcard.

[ or pcs! hmu on disco or plurk, i'm open to anything! ]

[shortforever]

[Chuuya's here, he's just using the sink to brush his teeth and wash his face before bedtime. But when he hears Wei Wuxian speak up, he glances over curiously.

And then that look becomes one of absolute disgust as he sees the hair monster.]

What the hell? That's from ONE shower?

[coastal]

[we honestly need belph's brain for this bc lili just told dark shadows she was stealing stuff from the bonfire area to put it all together so

it's fine]

She deserves it. She's been through a lot. This is her second time being homeless.

[axilium]

[he's fine, the world is just terrible]

I live underground. There's your fun trivia for the task.

[axilium]

[gj lili]

Did she not have a coop in your last place?

ii.

[voidbreaker]

...

[ he just reaches into weewooxian's shirt, grabs a slice of bread and retreats with his prize to try and find a different topping for the bread. ]

[survivaltricks]

[there]

[are so many follow up questions he wants to ask?? and that is written on his face]

I-- huh.

[a beat]

Well, at least here you can get some sunshine?

[axilium]

[yeah]

That's one upside to getting abducted, yes.

ii

[preowned]

[ he just blinks ]

... Scrubs?

[ what the fuck do these words mean ]

ii

[shortforever]

[He's never had a s'more before either, so he's going up to see what Beau is up to.]

You're just burning it. What's the point? To make more fire?

[voidbreaker]

[ ash does not see, he's not looking at tsuru.








shit, what does he do he can't? move? he can't scare the bnuuy??? ]

[disreguarded]

Me either, usually, but it's either this or I make you go on a run with me.

[survivaltricks]

If you're looking for silver linings, anyway.

[. . .]

My world is technically two worlds. A parallel world exists concurrently to the real one, and it's a world made up entirely of people's cognition.

We call it the "Metaverse" or the "cognitive world."

ii.

[chaoticlootral]

[Wandering over, if only because burning things is fun.]

What is it? New culinary discovery?

[preowned]

[ i really wish tsuru would walk forward and say something but he is

still just standing here and watching quietly because it's funny ]

i.

[survivaltricks]

Want to find out?

[akira what kind of answer is that. but he wags his fingers at her playfully]

[slobjection]

[ does it count if you're doing the bare minimum of cleaning ]

[ there's no toilet in the kitchen for phoenix to clean. ]

Bit of a go getter, aren't you?
