WEEK ZERO

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.

cats look like they're okay? but they stop when requested, posture both wary and maybe curious.]

[bittybat]

[He stops a few yards away. Pennyworth keeps going, offering a meow. Damian appraises the figure. Fellow green-masked individual, hello.]

Are you a monk? When did you get here...?

[aitagnon]

[slowly shakes their head no. no, they're not a monk, probably? then makes a wibbly wobbly gesture with a pale af hand, before very carefully extending it towards pennyworth. please do not think they're spooky, kitty?]

[bittybat]

[He's careful in watching Pennyworth approach. The cat pauses uncertainly, but then creeps up to rub against at least one leg. Hmmm.

He signs,] Mute?

[aitagnon]

[oh! they know this a little, and sign back YES with their free hand.

they do seem a little surprised the cat likes them, but lean down uncertainly to pet it.]

[bittybat]

[Hm. He's not sure whether to be worried, or not.]

Name? [Then, as an afterthought:] Damian Wayne. That's Alfred Pennyworth.

[The cat coils up a bit at first to try to smell the hand, but then arches into it afterward. Wow, traitorous and spoiled.]

[aitagnon]

[it looks like they know very basic sign only, considering that they swap to fingerspelling for anything longer. only signing with one hand might have something to do with it too.

scritches alfred pennyworth under the chin...]

D-O-N-T H-A-V-E

[bittybat]

[The first thing he thinks of is "Nobody," but there isn't any reason for him to give this mysterious person that name.]

You should pick one if you're skulking about. Names are important to the people who hold them.

[Oh nooo, under the chin. Pennyworth lifts the chin, yes, please and thank you.]
