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.

Why not both? If they've lived here for as long as they say, shouldn't they be experts at cleaning up after themselves?

[survivaltricks]

Beats me.

[stepping into the messy kitchen and going for the cabinets]

Maybe they're doing it on purpose? You know, to give us something to do.

[extracrispy]

Their idea of giving us "something to do" needs some work. What happened to holding hands around the campfire and singing kumbaya? Can't go wrong with the classics.

[Time... to shuffle over to the counters even if he doesn't really want to. Why is it so oily? Is that a dirty dishrag? Gross.]

[survivaltricks]

Dancing and talking about our home worlds isn't so bad. It's just the cleaning that's--

[well]

[he had his teacher clean his room what can he say]

[pulling some rags and cleaning supplies from the cabinet]

Don't step in that puddle, by the way. I don't know what it's made of.

[extracrispy]

[He snorts.]

You sure about that? Depending on who you ask, they might've as well asked them skinny dip in a pool full of piranhas.

[Speaking of the puddle, though, he stops short of stepping on it. Wrinkling his nose, while he glances around the kitchen:]

The liquified remains of our hopes of going home any time soon? [Ugh.] I'm assuming you haven't seen a mop around here.

[survivaltricks]

[some people just really hate cleaning. Akira was gonna respond to that first statement, but the second one draws an amused smirk from him]

Nooooot yet. But I did find some old, holey rags and cleaning spray.

[he turns around. PRESENT: CLEANING SPRAY AND A HOLEY DUST RAG]
