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.

[successives]

Oh - just Natalie, actually.

[She nods, though.]

Not to jinx it or anything, but it probably can't be that bad.

[wisterin]

[ She nods. She'll adjust to Natalie's first name. ]

There are enough of us. If a good number pitch in as they should, it should be fine even if it were terrible.

[successives]

Right. We'll see if that happens.

[Negative faith.

Anyways, here they are at the kitchen! She's heading towards to grab a sponge, first thing.]

[wisterin]

[ Very little faith.

Shinobu grabs a towel. ]

There do seem to be some spills even though we haven't been here long.

[successives]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that trend is going to continue.

[She turns the sink on to wet the sponge, putting a little bit of soap on it and squeezing.]

[wisterin]

I'll support your theory.

[ Shinobu starts wiping up crumbs left on the counter space. ]

We'll have to stay vigilant or hope the directors can work some magic sooner rather than later.

[successives]

You think they'd ever consider hiring a cleaning service?

[She takes the sponge to a more stubborn stain on the counter, glancing towards Shinobu.]

[wisterin]

They didn't even consider we'd be arriving until it was almost too late. I'd say we're the cleaning service.

[ She says that cheerfully, as she dumps the crumbs and other tidbits into the trash. ]

[successives]

Hey, if cleaning's all they ask us to do, it beats what everyone is expecting.

[The murder elephant in the room, if you will.]

[wisterin]

[ she laughs softly. ]

You’re quite right. I would take cleaning over that any day.

[successives]

Right. Fingers crossed it's only dirt we have to mop up, and all that.

[Speaking of which, she's looking around until she sees a broom and heading towards it.]

[wisterin]

It would be lovely if that were the case. I won't set my hopes too high, but it is nice to hope at all.

[ There are dishes left in the sink, so Shinobu tackles that. ]
