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.

[ 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?

[preowned]

That's true... maybe some adhesive? Or by tying it with something...

[ he is staring very seriously at his shoes now. ]

Where am I going to find wheels?

[givethemhell]

Maybe you could ask our dear hosts for some? Though I'd be wary about anything they give you, to be honest!

[SUSPICION AROUND EVERY CORNER.]

[preowned]

[ tsuru, who later stuffs his face with twinkies from the host: ]

Maybe I'll test it out somewhere safe?

[givethemhell]

[Tsuru have one single ounce of self-preservation challenge.]

You could try in the cafeteria after moving all of the tables and chairs out of the way!

[preowned]

[ I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT FROM YOU ]

Ah! That's an excellent idea.

[givethemhell]

[WEI WUXIAN HAS NEVER DONE ANYTHING DANGEROUS IN HIS LIFE.]

And then if we can get enough wheeled shoes for everyone, we can turn it into a-- ah, what was it called... rollerskating ring? Something like that!

[preowned]

Maybe we could do races? I wonder how many of us could fit...

[ he's already imagining all of this ]

[givethemhell]

It's a pretty big place, isn't it? I bet we could all fit in if we tried! ...But that might not leave a lot of room to move, so maybe half of us at a time?

[He's considering suggesting the kitchen to fit the other half but it's so narrow.....]

[preowned]

I guess taking turns might work... I think some people would want to sit down and rest, so we can take that as an opportunity to switch the groups.

[givethemhell]

That's a smart plan, mm! Maybe we could even divide it up into ten each? Rotations of four! That'd give people plenty of time to rest and do other things.

[In between skating for their LIVES.]

[preowned]

That seems the most fair way of doing it... and since the kitchen is right there, we can supply all kinds of snacks.

[ lili made a chicken coop, they are making a roller rink ]

[givethemhell]

[They won't even be able to call it by its proper name but here they are.]

Ooh, that's a wonderful idea! We could play games of roulette!

[preowned]

[ he nods his head ]

If you lose a race, you have to eat something without knowing what it is.

[givethemhell]

Ooh, that's a good one! The winner of the race can decide what to feed them!

[He'd clap his hands together but then he'd just hit Tsurumaru in the process, so he will just nod right back.]

[preowned]

I think this will be a really fun time for everyone. It'll relieve stress.

[ he just decided they are definitely getting heelies ]
