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.

[time to sign his name as wario from now on

Anyway yeah they're going to dance until they get exhausted and fall into the fire.]

Wouldn't that mean that you'd have to lose all of your hair first, and then it comes in grey?

[slobjection]

[ you're welcome, aki. ]

[ can't wait for them to die week zero ]

Yes, that's likely what's going to happen to me.

... Hopefully not to you. You have a lot more to lose than I do.

[ his luscious locks.... ]

[givethemhell]

[yeah same it's what they deserve

He will also try to dip this punk after his next turn. Please do not lose any hair to the fire.]

It would be bad if I lost all of my hair, hm? There's probably enough of it that I could make a shirt if I lost it all!

[whymst]

[slobjection]

[ definitely getting his hair set on fire unless wario is v v careful ]

[ also phoenix is pretty used to nonsensical trains of thought by this point so ]

It'd be a shedding shirt, though.

[givethemhell]

But then I could hold all the cats and rabbits I wanted without worrying about them shedding on me!

[He can have a little singe as a treat because Wei Wuxian is only being careful, not very very careful.]

[slobjection]

You could do that anyway, you know.

[ if you're a slob like him!! also yea fire!! ]

-- Ow, my hair.

[givethemhell]

Oh—!

[WHOOPS. He's quickly yoinking Phoenix back up, looking a little alarmed.]

Are you alright? Is your hair alright...?

[slobjection]

[ the fire is already out but that won't stop phoenix from being dramatic and flopping ]

I fear I may never recover...

[givethemhell]

[Helpfully, he reaches over to try patting the little singed spot...]

—The only cure is to shave it all off, I suppose.

[slobjection]

[ there, there, hair... ]

Maybe we could have matching shirts.

[ though it's more like a small croptop in phoenix's case ]

[givethemhell]

[IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT, LIL BURNT HAIRS...]

I think you might be better off making a sock or a pair of mittens or something, with the amount you have...

[slobjection]

Maybe a spiky vest.

[ are they just dancing forever, how romantic ]

[givethemhell]

[HE STOPPED DANCING WHEN PHOENIX'S HAIR CAUGHT FIRE BRIEFLY OKAY he's not that bad.]

—Where are the spikes coming from, exactly?

[slobjection]

[ are they taking a break now. ]

My head.

[ thanks, phoenix. ]

[givethemhell]

[They are taking a break yes, and Wei Wuxian is helpfully patting his arms.]

Don't make a spiky vest with your hair spikes! That sounds like it would be uncomfortable.

[slobjection]

[ is he patting phoenix's arms or his own ]

Well, the spikes would face outwards so they wouldn't hurt me. But despite all appearances... my hair is actually pretty soft.

[ it's video game magic ]

[givethemhell]

[PHOENIX'S ARMS. Now he is patting Phoenix's head, though.]

—You're right! How in the world does it do that?

[slobjection]

[ the spikes are so soft it doesn't seem possible... they also spring back up after being patted down ]

[ phoenix smiles mysteriously ]

A magician never reveals his secrets, my friend.

[givethemhell]

[oh my god...

He practically SPARKLES.]

Are you a magician—!? Take me under your wing! I want to learn how to do tricks like this!

[PATTING A SPIKE DOWN for emphasis.]

[slobjection]

[ are we doing capcha chicken aki ]

Well... I'm an amateur. My daughter's the real magician.

[ hair magic can't be taught, though, it's innate ]

But I did pick up a few tricks.

[givethemhell]

[it's not capcha chicken if i refuse to move]

Ah! How wonderful, a family of magicians. [BABY MAGE AND PROFESSIONAL MAGE.] Would you be willing to teach me one? I can trade you! I'm not sure what, though - just consider it an I owe you, yes?
