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.

[well]

A valiant attempt, C-3PO!

[once the semi-rhythmic flailing has subsided, Threepio returns to his usual posture]

My, I believe that's plenty of exertion for now. Thank you very much for the demonstration, Miss Flayn. Did you often dance back home?
fishingforcompliments: (018)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-13 07:45 am (UTC)(link)
Recently, yes! It is quite exhilarating.

[Also, it's entertaining to see other people dance. She's going to carry the memory of C-3PO's dance moves with her for quite some time.]
machinetranslation: (at your service)

sorry for the long gap! can move on to w1 if we want!!

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-16 10:33 am (UTC)(link)
[I imagine it'd be a memory that's difficult to forget]

How wonderful! Music and dance are often some of the oldest parts of any given culture. In many, they serve as a form of communication or transmission of stories and mythology.

I'd certainly like to see any more dances from you home, Miss Flayn. Should you be willing to demonstrate.
fishingforcompliments: (011)

no worries! i'd definitely like something for w1 but i'll tag this as long as you want to!

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-16 02:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course! I will be glad to show you all the dances I know!

[she'll dance!! i'm not writing out what the dances look like because it's early and i'm not a morning person and words are hard but just know she's doing it.]

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-17 12:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[Threepio makes for a good and attentive audience, impressed at the right times and clapping obligingly at the end of routines.]

Marvelous! I must say I'm terribly grateful for such a pleasant distraction from everything that's been happening. Wherever did you learn such lovely dances, Miss Flayn?
fishingforcompliments: (009)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-17 01:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, the Professor taught me many of them so that I could compete in the White Heron Cup back at the monastery. And others, I learned by watching people dance at a ball.

[she likes dancing.......]
machinetranslation: (at your service)

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-18 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, the White Heron Cup! That sounds like quite a prestigious event. Although I'm not sure I've heard of many monasteries hosting dance competitions.

Were you successful in your competing, Miss Flayn?
fishingforcompliments: (011)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-19 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! I won the entire competition!

[and she is SO PROUD]
machinetranslation: (surprise)

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-19 10:31 am (UTC)(link)
[and he's so excited for her!!]

How remarkable! What a splendid performance it must have been! You must be rather talented. Oh, if only I could be at such an event now.

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-19 01:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[checks on timelines. this is still the w0 mingle, so i can say this without it being weird]

Perhaps we can hold a dance competition of some kind here?

[PEOPLE AREN'T DYING YET, FOR ALL SHE KNOWS THEY'RE JUST AT SUMMER CAMP.]
machinetranslation: (now see here)

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-20 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
[summer camp! summer camp!]

A wonderful idea, Miss Flayn! I shall suggest it to the directors. They seem quite eager for our time here to be comfortable and productive. Perhaps you could suggest the idea to those you feel would be best suited?
fishingforcompliments: (011)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-20 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I will bring it up to them!

[no she won't, she'll forget to do that because suddenly all their cute plans are getting derailed by murder. BOO. BOOOOOOOO.]

Since you are familiar with many types of dances - perhaps you would like to be the judge?

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-21 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
[thinks about Threepio and Flayn excitedly proposing a dance contest to go with the first Saturday "pizza party"]

Oh, I believe that's a role I'm much better suited to! Although I wonder who could provide reasonable competition to an established champion such as yourself.
fishingforcompliments: (016)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-21 01:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[missed opportunities...]

I am not certain! But I would be interested to see if anyone could.
machinetranslation: (now see here)

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-23 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Now that I think of it, isn't Master Dimitri from your same country? Perhaps he's had similar dancing experience?
fishingforcompliments: (038)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-23 02:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[imagines dimitri dancing in the white heron cup




and then giggles because that's honestly a hysterical mental image]


Perhaps! But I do not believe he is much interested in that sort of dancing.
machinetranslation: (at your service)

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-24 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
We shall have to ask him if he'd like to participate, then. I think a leisure activity would be good for Master Dimitri. He seems quite serious and focused. Does he have much responsibility in his station?
fishingforcompliments: (036)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-24 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
[she nods]

He does. He has quite a lot of responsibility, actually, but he always handles in admirably.
machinetranslation: (at your service)

[personal profile] machinetranslation 2020-06-24 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I should expect no less. Regardless, even admirable leaders need some time to relax.

That settles it. We shall invite Master Dimitri to the dance competition. Perhaps you could find out what sort of dance he does know?
fishingforcompliments: (010)

[personal profile] fishingforcompliments 2020-06-24 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course!

[unluckily for them and luckily for dimitri, murder will put the brakes on this whole idea before they can get far with it]
