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.

N-no, it's okay! [ Escha waves her hands. ]

... Would you really want to hum your own dance music? [ Do people do that? Is that normal? Escha doesn't understand music or dance... ]

If you felt like it was necessary, I would. If you felt like it'd be too awkward, I wouldn't.

[ Music isn't what Shinobu is great at, but she has a pretty voice. ]

I think I can manage either way... But it would be nice to hear it...!

[ Escha offers her hand? ]

I only know how to waltz, though. Akira taught me.

[ Is Escha wearing gloves.....

Shinobu's hand hovers but doesn't quite reach just yet. They could get stuck. ]


I don't know the music to a waltz, but I would love to learn how to. I can sing for you after.

[ No, she's just dumb as hell and immediately forgot about the sticking. ]

Oh no... My second-hand teaching might not be as good. But I'll do my best...!
wisterin: (037)

[personal profile] wisterin 2020-06-10 05:11 am (UTC)(link)
If you don't mind getting stuck, I'll be happy to learn. Let's both do our best.

[ Sure wish she were less refined so she could say something terrible like let's do our best to stick together. ]

[personal profile] applechemist 2020-06-10 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, right...!

Maybe we could do it without really touching?

[ Like, she knows the hands on hips and shoulder part doesn't mean sticking. Maybe the hands they're supposed to hold they could just... Hover? ]

[personal profile] wisterin 2020-06-11 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
I'll follow your lead.

[ Shinobu's game for however Escha wants to do it. ]

[personal profile] applechemist 2020-06-11 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Hmm, okay, then! Escha puts her hand up where they would hold hands, but tries to keep a bit of distance.

And then puts her other hand at Shinobu's waist? I guess she's taking the leading position, here. ]


I'll try not to step on your feet.
wisterin: (029)

[personal profile] wisterin 2020-06-12 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ She hovers her one hand across from Escha's, but she doesn't know where to put her other one. She pauses before she mirrors Escha and puts her hand on the other girl's waist, too. ]

Where should I put this hand?

[ Shinobu knows nothing of watlzes. ]
applechemist: (pic#13482484)

[personal profile] applechemist 2020-06-12 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Um...

[ She vaguely remembers the same thing - not knowing where to put her hand. And Akira had put it on his. Shoulder? But she doesn't see what's wrong with both hands on waists, so she just shrugs. ]

I think there is fine.
wisterin: (bw3-3)

[personal profile] wisterin 2020-06-12 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
[ They are going to make up a new waltz. Unless there is a waltz that's like that. What is ballroom dancing?

But okay, then, Shinobu's other hand goes on Escha's waist, and she smiles, as if to say she's ready for whatever Escha's got. ]

[personal profile] applechemist 2020-06-13 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ Okay. Escha is trying to lead and mimic what Akira had done? But her rhythm is off and she doesn't really know what she's doing so it's not a matter of stepping on feet, it's just a matter of the dance sucking.

Great. ]
