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.

[Meanwhile, Wei Wuxian just continues to be here on the ground, existing.]

That's an awful lot of faith you have in the cooking of a man you've never met before, friend!

[preowned]

No matter how it goes, I'm sure it'll be a surprise.

[ ha ha ]

[givethemhell]

That's certainly true!

[He's gonna make zunda mochi but with fuckin wasabi or something.]

Only one problem... I can't seem to get back up?

[preowned]

Ah?

[ he walks over to him, and squats down so he can be closer to eye level. ]

Do you need help?

[givethemhell]

[Dramatically, he places a hand against his forehead like a swooning maiden.]

I do! I don't think I can stand on my own. Will you be so kind...?

[preowned]

I can never leave someone who needs help.

[ probably

but okay, he is reaching down. grab onto him ]

[givethemhell]

[thanks tsuru you're making miracles happen. HE GRABS HOLD.]

—Hm! I think my legs have stopped working, actually? You'll have to carry me to the kitchen, probably!

[AS IF TSURU ISN'T A TWINK HIMSELF.]

[preowned]

Huh? Oh...

[ he thinks about it ]

Get on my back?

[givethemhell]

[He's really about to try to get on Tsuru's back without using his legs much, incredible.]

How very kind of you! I'll put extra care into these mochi.

[preowned]

I appreciate that.

[ yeah this is going to be

very stupid looking as tsuru turns so that wwx can just slide on up there. at least tsuru is taller than him so it's not as stupid as it could be. ]

[givethemhell]

[IT'S STILL VERY STUPID but yeah slightly less... stupid than it could be... which is a consolation prize for anyone forced to watch Wei Wuxian pull himself up onto Tsuru's back.]

—Alright, alright! All settled back here. Let's head to the kitchen, shall we?

[preowned]

Onward!

[ tsurumaru immediately tries running





he cannot. that is too much for his thin frame to handle. the run quickly turns into an awkward waddle. ]

[givethemhell]

[Wei Wuxian, who contributes absolutely nothing of use as usual, just cheers him on.]

You could win a marathon at this slow and steady speed!

[preowned]

What do they usually give as prizes for those?

[ he's interested. i hate it. ]

[givethemhell]

[i hate it too especially because he doesn't know shit about normal marathon prizes]

...A cake as tall as you are, probably!

[That's the prize now.]

[preowned]

[ tsurumaru has no reason to doubt him. and even if he does, he still wouldn't call him out. ]

Hm... I think it's impossible to top a prize like that.

[givethemhell]

[Now all he has to do is win a marathon and he will be gifted a cake as tall as he is.]

What about a cake twice as tall as you?

[preowned]

[ he stops walking at that, and looks over his shoulder. ]

You are a very smart man.

[givethemhell]

[Helpfully, he pats the top of Tsuru's head, and fortunately his hand doesn't get stuck.]

Why, thank you! Though doubling up on a good thing is only the most natural path to take, yes?

[preowned]

That's true... although it may become difficult to move it?

[ it's gonna tip over ]

[givethemhell]

Hm... You're right about that! We'll have to put it on something with wheels. A small tray on top of heelies?

[WHY NOT JUST A SCOOTER BOARD OR SKATEBOARD.]

[preowned]

[ he blinks ]

What are heelies?

[givethemhell]

They're shoes, but with wheels!

[As if this is the best damn invention EVER.]

[preowned]

[ HE STOPS WALKING AGAIN ]

How do I get one of those?

[givethemhell]

[TSURU YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO WIN THE MARATHON AT THIS RATE.]

Not a clue! We got them for prizes, I think... But if you could figure out a way to attach wheels to the shoes you already have, it would essentially be the same thing, yes?
