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.

It won't hurt if you wait. Like. You don't have to burn yourself.

Did you miss the suffering makes it better part?
wowcool: (3!)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-08 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
You mean the pain really does make more pleasure?
disreguarded: (19)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ me, sighing at my computer at this ]

Yeah, exactly. If you hurt first it makes the good shit better after?
wowcool: (15)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose that's a way to think about it.

[He moves to sit on the nearest log next to Beau.]

Can I try?
disreguarded: [ʜᴇs_ᴘᴇʀ_ɪᴅᴇs] (17)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, of course. [ she offers him a stick with a marshmallow on it, careful not to touch him directly. she's not looking to stick to him for an hour... ]

You really gotta burn the shit out of it though, it tastes best that way.

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay.

[He takes it gingerly, hefting it in his hand, before moving it so its above the fire.]

You know, I don't think I've ever done this before. It's the type of stuff you see on TV or in movies...
disreguarded: (38)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
What, burning marshmallows? Is that a TV thing? [ she's never actually seen TV, but she gathers it must be similar to movies. ]
wowcool: (12)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
Well, no. It's something you do with friends. That's how they always show it on those shows, too. The main character, sitting together with people they like, burning marshmallows and laughing about it...

[His mouth twists to the side, his eyes fixed on the flame - his tone is a little bittersweet.]

I guess you need people in your life to do it with.
disreguarded: (38)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 03:02 am (UTC)(link)
[ oh, what the fuck, that's sad. beau rests her elbow on her knee, chin in hand, watching him. ]

You've got me, right now. I'm not much, but it's better than nothing. Bet we could figure something out to laugh about.
wowcool: (8)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
...I do, don't I?

[He leans his chin onto his free hand, smiling over at her - there's almost a sense of gratitude in his expression.]

Then let's find something to talk about! I'm really not picky.
disreguarded: (38)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ she smiles back! ]

Sounds good to me. I'm curious, actually - how much of a kick did you actually get out of shouting about the sex demons across the bus? [ because she senses Gremlin ]
wowcool: (10)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 10:29 am (UTC)(link)
[Anaido's marshmallow is starting to blacken, but he's ignoring it, only electing to give a chuckle to her question.]

I admit, it was a bit fun, but...admittedly, I wasn't doing it just because it gave me a kick.
disreguarded: (38)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah? Why were you doing it? [ normal people might be like "if you don't mind me asking" but not beau. ]
wowcool: (Default)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, I wanted everyone to be on the same page.

[His marshmallow catches on fire. It's fine.]
disreguarded: (19)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-09 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Your marshmallow is on fire. [ she points out, amused. ]

Everybody is on the same page now, definitely. Whether they liked it or not.
wowcool: (10)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-09 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay.

[He's just not like? Doing anything about it?]

They are, aren't they? I don't think people should keep secrets. Especially when we all might be starting to murder each other.
disreguarded: [ᴍᴇᴇʙʟᴏᴛᴛ] (05)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-10 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ she... gently reaches over and tugs his sleeve to get the marshmallow out of the fire. ]

Nah, that's smart. We shouldn't be keeping secrets. All of us have done this before - it's a good idea to make sure we all know everything just in case shit from our last game pops up again. Though, uh. I really hope the fuck boat stuff doesn't come up here.
wowcool: (Default)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-10 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely. The more secrets we keep, the more we divide ourselves into groups...united we stand, divided they conquer, right?

[He sees the movement and glances at the marshmallow, which is just. Flaming. Yeah, that...doesn't look like something he can grasp?]

Do I...shake it?
disreguarded: [ʜᴇs_ᴘᴇʀ_ɪᴅᴇs] (17)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-10 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ i'm crying, anaido your marshmallow ]

Lemme -- [ she tugs it closer to try and blow out the flames, even if she's laughing while she does it. ]
wowcool: (8)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-10 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
[He stares at her laughing...and then breaks out into a peal of laughter himself as she tries to save his poor marshmallow.] Hahaha! I guess I need to pay more attention, huh?

[ she manages to put it out! it's pretty crispy, but hey. ]

Hey, if you can't set a couple of marshmallows on fire just for fun, what's the point? You wanna try this one, or do a do-over? I like 'em really blackened like this.
wowcool: (10)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-11 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
No, no, let me try this one!

[And reaches out for it - winces a little, because ouch! - and manages to grab it and pop it into his mouth.]

[It is a bit crispy, but the inside is very very hot, and very gooey and sweet.]


Oh! [His eyes widen. He's probably burning his tongue, but it's fine.] It's good!
disreguarded: [ʟᴇsʟʏ ᴏʜ] (18)

[personal profile] disreguarded 2020-06-11 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ beau gives him a look that is distinctly fond. ]

Right, isn't it?! [ she leans forward a bit, grinning. ] All you had to do was burn the shit out of it first. This is honestly the best way to eat anything.
