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.

... It makes sense - wanting to protect the people you know over strangers.

But I don't like it.

[voidbreaker]

I don't think this place'll care if we like it or not.

[applechemist]

It's hard to know what it does care about.

[ murder games really are a grab-bag of mismatched events and effects ]

[voidbreaker]

[ he literally just makes a little rainbow motion with his hands: ]

Murder.

[ ash. ]

[applechemist]

[ her hands get pulled along with the motion, too.

which, despite the subject at hand (haha) makes her laugh lightly. ]

[voidbreaker]

[ well, at that might be the first time he's seen someone laugh at murder. nicely done, escha. ]

[applechemist]

[ she's not laughing about the murder, she's laughing at the! hand motion! oh nooo. ]

[voidbreaker]

[ there's a pause


and then he waves their hands again. ]

[applechemist]

[ she laughs again. is she 5.

and then she swings their hands together, herself. like walking around holding hands and swinging them. how fun! ]

[voidbreaker]

[ she's adorable i love her. i'm glad they're being this dumb on the old captcha'd mingle so everyone will miss ash being adorable? ]

Having fun?

[applechemist]

[ it is a Secret. ]

A little...!

[voidbreaker]

[ no one will know the time this happened. ]

Looking on the bright side then.

[applechemist]

We have to.

[ despite that she. fluctuates on that, actually. ]

[voidbreaker]

Yeah. We kinda do.

[ ash is not exactly uh... positive and peppy. ]

[applechemist]

Even if it's... Difficult.

[voidbreaker]

Nothing about it's easy. We've been through this before.

[applechemist]

Doesn't that make it worse? Having to go through something like this a second time... The experience doesn't make it any easier.

[voidbreaker]

Maybe. It might make us all more paranoid, or better at hiding when something’s happened. Which’ll make it harder to catch people.

Or maybe the opposite.
