WEEK ZERO

▽ FULL NAVIGATION ▽ LOCATIONS ▽ STATUSES ▽ IC PROFILES ▽ IC RULEBOOK ▽ MURDER PROPOSALS ▽ PCS ▽ CURFEW ▽ AUDIENCES ▽ CAMP STORE ▽ REPORTING

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.

[she tilts her head]

Who was your host...? What were they like? And what became of the ghosts?

[overruns]

I suppose you could call the island itself our host, malicious and incendiary as it was. It seemed as though there had been many rounds of sacrificial rituals before us, judging from the number of skeletons that attacked us...

[ what a miserable cycle. he shakes his head. ]

But at the very least, the ghosts were released when we ended the ritual.

[coastal]

[she sighs in relief]

That's good... I was nearly worried we'd have to make another stop of people to save from these trials who weren't able to find escape.

[she's already got one on her list, damn!]

How odd that these structures are finding sentience - between the house and the island...

[overruns]

Right, I'd heard of the house as well...

[ blissfully he doesn't know what vore is, so he can swiftly go back to: ]

You intend to circle around for another group? Is that even possible?

[coastal]

Hm... I'm not sure yet - I have ideas, but we can't say for sure until magic's been restored to us and our belongings.

[that said - ]

It's just the right thing to do, isn't it? If someone's suffered because of these stupid rituals or whatever you want to call them, they deserve to be saved. Just leaving them behind now that I know they exist - it'd be unforgivable.

[she is just talking for herself but she also has a tendency to make bold declarations in such broad terms. still, she seems to be unflinching about it.]

[overruns]

[ actual shounen protag lili an. still, he seems moved by her conviction, seriously considering her words. ]

In that case, I wonder how many of these settings still require assistance? Was your situation at the village resolved?

[coastal]

It was - rather neatly. From what I understand, the same can be said for the castle, the manor, and your island.

The two issues at hand that have been brought to my attention are the boat with the [sex] demons who were unable to revive their deceased, and the town where the horrible, sadistic host never saw consequences for what he did.

I'd like to correct both of those issues.

[overruns]

[ two bad endings is two too many. he nods, pensive. ]

I have my doubts that the dead can be so easily raised, [ even if it worked out for them ] but if a path were to open up for us...

It is a noble endeavor, once we can ensure the safety of everyone with us at present.

[coastal]

I'm not going to wait for if a path is going to open up - I'm going to make a path that opens up. We know it was possible for plenty of us, so why not them? Even if it's complicated, we have to do better than just wait.

[she is so purposeful and also dramatic for someone who is 5'3" and is probably looking up at dimitri to have this conversation]

I know that solving our dilemma comes first - but we can't forget them either. I won't allow it.

[overruns]

...Is that so?

[ watch this, dana. you can actually pinpoint the second when he starts projecting edelgard on her. ]

I'll look forward to seeing how you accomplish this, Lili. If this is the path you choose, then I will do whatever I can to help.

[coastal]

[i had a feeling i'd be getting a 17 year old to project a royal onto lili but this is somehow not what i was expecting

unfortunately, the agreement to help manages to get her to grin confidently]

Is that so? I'm going to put you to work then. Don't complain later.
