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 seems the fog has receded enough to reveal a few new locations.

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 Purple Heart 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, Winter Wizard will be handling all transactions at the checkout counter. Even camp directors hold down normal jobs, you know. Strangely enough, Black Shadows 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.

As you explore the camp, however... You may find yourself confronted by scenes from a not so distant past. Or, perhaps, the so-called-movies playing on the big screen are completely foreign to you. But that's not all you will have to deal with this week. Continue skimming the edges of the forest, and you will find yourself going down memory lane. Literally.

To further complicate matter, at the start of this week everyone will wake up with a tattoo of a star on the back of their hands. Though you will be unaware of its purpose at first, it will quickly become apparent the moment you say the words "I wish" out loud. It's a wish granting star! Or, well, sort of. Regardless of what you wish for, the result of the wish is always material, small, and never actually useful for what the character actually desires. They cannot cause effects or change anything, nor will it result in a weapon or items that can be used to solve a murder. For example, wishing for an exit will result in an Emergency Exit sign materializing in your hands.

You will all get three wishes each. The star will become fainter with each wish, until disappearing once they make their third wish. All items gained through this effect will disappear once Week 2 officially begins. Good luck.

I know! Now I'll be stuck at this height forever... How will I reach the top of the fridge without those few extra inches, ah? It's too sad!

[DRAMATICALLY THROWS HIS ARM ACROSS HIS FOREHEAD and then just fuckin flops over into the dirt.]

[She nudges at his side with her foot.]

Hey, get up, you still have to help me with the weeds.
givethemhell: (hm?)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-16 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's right.

[He just rolls over onto his side, propping his head up lazily...]

I was just going to head over to the carrots and start weeding there, actually. Cleared this area pretty decently already!

[She looks down at him expectantly.]

You can get up on your own, right?
givethemhell: (one single braincell)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-16 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmm...

[He looks off into the middle distance while he apparently ponders whether or not his limbs still work. As though testing, he lifts a leg up into the air.]

...I think I'll have to rest a few more seconds.

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-16 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
[After maybe two:]

Time’s up.
givethemhell: (wish i could remember)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-16 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
Don't be cruel to me! I'm old and tired, let me rest a little longer.

[HE ONLY GOT LAZY WHEN SHE SHOWED UP.]
successives: (valse de l'adieu)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-16 05:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[She taps him in the side with her foot again.]
givethemhell: (HOO)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-16 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[He SIGHS like a BIG BABY but pushes himself up from the ground shortly after.]

Alright, alright, alright! I'm going, I'll get going before the earth claims me. To the carrots!
successives: (valse de l'adieu)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-17 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
[To the carrots they go!! As he gets up:]

Yeah, try to avoid that if you can.
givethemhell: (labor on that midnight wire)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-17 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
Mm, it is fairly high up on my "avoid this" list.

[He says, and promptly moseys over to the carrots but only so he can pull one up instead of pulling up the weeds. HIS SNACK.]

[Once she realizes what he's about to do—]

Please don't eat that until we can wash it off.
givethemhell: (People With Unreasonable Faith)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-17 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
A little dirt never did anyone much harm!

[WAVES THE CARROT AROUND but fine he'll just stuff it into his shirt instead, and then turn his attention back to the weeds...]
successives: (roman nepi tancok)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-17 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
[...]

Whatever, that's fine.

[She's kneeling near him so she can help him weed, though!]
givethemhell: (and i'll use you as a focal point)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-17 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Time to weed. He's actually capable of doing farmwork in silence for short stretches of time, and tends to his portion while humming.

BUT EVENTUALLY:]


You know, some of these are edible! And not that bad, either.
successives: (pic#14009117)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-17 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[After a moment of her own:]

Do I want to know how you know that?
givethemhell: (that's what he said)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-17 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Because he lived on the streets when he was a toddler and then lived in the elephant graveyard in his 20s where the soil was infused with hundreds of thousands of angry dead people.]

You know! Sometimes you just want to try everything that grows out of the ground.
successives: (1812 overture)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-17 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Please don't continue to do that.

[She says, pulling some more weeds out.]
givethemhell: (ふふふ)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-17 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
But some weeds are good for you, you know! Like- [he just bullshits some ancient fantasy chinese sounding name...], which helps you sleep soundly at night and reduces any lymphatic swelling you might have!
successives: (pic#14009113)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-18 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Do you actually know what all of them are before you eat them, though?
givethemhell: (ふふふ)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-18 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
[HIS EXPRESSION DOESN'T CHANGE AND HE DOESN'T SAY A DAMN THING.]
successives: (grande valse brilliante)

[personal profile] successives 2020-06-18 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
...Wow. This dirt sure is cool and interesting.

[WEEDING!!]
givethemhell: (that's what he said)

[personal profile] givethemhell 2020-06-18 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
It's very lovely dirt, yes!

[Somehow, this sounds like it's a genuine statement... He pats the dirt fondly before getting back to weeding.

Every now and then he stuffs another vegetable down his shirt.]
