WEEK ZERO: MINGLE

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. |
bunney
I can try.
... Are you not good with animals?

[ She crouches down next to him. Gotta pet the bunny a little first to make sure it doesn't get mad at her when she tries to lure it away! ]
no subject
Right—I'm more used to horses or hounds. Hardier things. If I'm honest, I tend to avoid ones like this.
no subject
[ She is maybe perhaps totally distracted from the mission by how cute the bunny is... Pet pet pet pet... ]
They must seem really delicate compared to the other animals, huh?
no subject
They truly are. And I am not very good with anything delicate, living or not.
no subject
You just have to... Take things slow.
no subject
Have you much experience taking care of animals?
no subject
I deal with homunculi sometimes, but they're more like coworkers...

no subject
[ .... She realizes that isn't helpful, and sort of gestures about waist-height. ] And about this tall. With big ears and poofy tails.
no subject
no subject
... They talk, though. So I guess they're pretty different from these bunnies.
no subject
You're an alchemist? That's quite impressive... In my world, I had written alchemy off as fiction.
no subject
For me, alchemy has shaped so much of my life - and the world - that I can't even imagine if it weren't real. It's like being told that blacksmiths are made up.
no subject
This place must be quite strange to you, then. Your world— [ alchemy, helpful animal companions, all that ] seems like something out of a fairy tale.
no subject
[ Escha is also just... Idly petting the bunny. Nailed it. ]
no subject
I think I've seen enough of the ocean for a while. [ no more islands. no more boats. ] I have to admit I miss the mountains... Though I suppose now is not the time for any homesickness.
no subject
Mountains, huh...?
[ She's only been to small mountains. Hills, really. Escha shakes her head. ]
I don't know - I think know is the right time for homesickness. People were told they were going home and it got interrupted. And we have an assignment to talk about it and everything. There's nothing wrong with a little bit of reminiscing, is there?
no subject
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.
no subject
As amazing as alchemy is, it also has the potential to do a lot of harm. We still don't know exactly what the alchemists of the past did, even though we investigate the ruins they left behind as much as we can.
We know they tried to fix their mistakes, but it was largely too late. A lot of land is uninhabitable and infertile, now... So cities and towns are spread apart across vast deserts. We have a lot of water shortages to deal with, too...
[ Hrm. ]
Um, but, it's a very peaceful world. Even when things are difficult we're always working together to try and make sure everyone is provided for.
no subject
I'm sorry to hear it. Picking up the pieces of a ravaged world like that... it can't be easy.
[ Still, her spirit is uplifting. ]
It's times such as those where it's important to work together, certainly. Hopefully you will all find a solution soon. [ ignores the fact that they're trapped here indefinitely ] That you're all cooperating with each other is already a good sign for the future.
no subject
... Yes.
What about your world? Every world I hear about that doesn't have alchemy sounds so different... Oh - but it's okay if you don't want to talk about it. [ He was the one who said that this isn't the time for homesickness... ]
