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.

[ they have met, but i am contractually obligated to do this joke: ]

You seem familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.

[ sparkles. ]

[ phoenix will sit next to him, but starts toasting marshmallows. ]
What's on your mind?

[ His smile wobbles a little, but he keeps it together this time. Can't believe i've icly doomed myself to sipp puns. ]

Nothing in particular—I'd just like some company.

[ He doesn't really have any problem admitting it. Though he quickly adds, ]

Please don't burn those too. [ Whatever they are. ]
slobjection: (quickest way to ruin your life)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 07:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[ it's what you deserve. ]

That I can provide. And dancing, if you need a master to teach you.

[ don't listen to him, he's not a master. ]

These are meant to be burnt. Ever try one?
overruns: (weYLNRO)

[personal profile] overruns 2020-06-08 07:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well, he's probably nicer than his last dance instructor, at least...

He looks over the s'mores supplies left out, which he's pretty firmly ignored. ]


I cannot say I have. What are they?
slobjection: (pretty smart kid)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ that is a very low bar ]

Just follow my lead.

[ putting together a s'more on a stick and roasting it.. turning it every so often. ]
overruns: (8t2vJZA)

[ Well, okay then... he puts a marshmallow on one of the skewers very carefully. He sticks it in the fire with equal care. ]

[ anyway it still catches aflame ]

Ah!
slobjection: (decidin' what to do for a livin')

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
No need to be startled. Just rotate it evenly.

[ i dont actually remember how to make smores so this is probably fine ]
overruns: (15)

[personal profile] overruns 2020-06-08 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[ thanks dad. it's not too difficult with his supervision, though the marshmallow turns out a little extra crispy before he blows out the last of the flame. ]

Is this really how it should look...?

[ A bunch of people are making s'mores so surely they're not just burning food for no reason. ]
slobjection: (DONT B A LAWYER)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ it's all because phoenix believed in him. ]

Might wanna put some of these on there.

[ nudges the graham crackers and choco over ]

[ He breaks off pieces of each, though this is basically just him mixing contextless ingredients together. I hate ye oldes. At least he can follow instructions. ]

Mm, so— [ He's just gonna... smush the marshmallow between them. ] What sort of dish is this supposed to make?
slobjection: (a prestigious and lucrative vocation)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
A traditional meal from the mystical land of Camplandia. Eat it with great reverence.

[ he sounds extremely serious ]
overruns: (fa03)

[personal profile] overruns 2020-06-08 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He completely believes him. ]

I see... I will keep that in mind.

[ He very seriously takes a bite of his s'more, and does not complain at all when he burns his tongue. ]
slobjection: (quickest way to ruin your life)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-08 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It's called "Some Mores". Not everyone knows of it, so it wouldn't hurt to spread your newfound knowledge to everyone.

[ he is showing the proper respect ]
overruns: (jRAa4R0)

[personal profile] overruns 2020-06-09 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
I will endeavor to do so.

[ He will spread this wisdom... The knowledge of Some Mores. ]

You are quite knowledgeable.
slobjection: (don't be a lawyer!)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-09 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Part of the ritual involves repeating the words "yumm-ay, yumm-ay, in my tumm-may" before or after you consume the dish.

[ with an entirely straight face. ]

Comes with getting old.

[ is phoenix, as the people say, fucking with him right now? he does have the wherewithal to look a little doubtful, but seems to commit this sacred phrase to memory just in case. ]

You do not seem that old to me.
slobjection: (everyone said it was a real safe bet)

[personal profile] slobjection 2020-06-11 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ he seems so serious dimitri how could you doubt him!! ]

Kind of you to say, but I'm positively ancient.
