POPULATION: 39 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.

[ ugh, he has to make small talk after all. He should have thought about this before jumping in... But he wants a voucher, so he'll just bite the bullet and deal with it. ]

I like all of them. [ hikage is a good boy who eats his vegetables. ] You remember the recipe?

[givethemhell]

[HE SHOULD HAVE!! THE FOOL. At least Wei Wuxian isn't talking about zombies or something.]

Hah! Do you? Now that's a rarity. [Even he has vegetables he doesn't prefer... Hikage is stronk.]

But yes, I do! I remember most of the recipes I've been taught, but the curries and dishes with peppers are easiest for me to recall.

[psychedelica]

[ hikage is a ghost he could deal with zombies ]

If you don't eat vegetables, your health will deteriorate. [ there's the distinct sense that he's said this kind of thing a lot in the past. ] ... I'm surprised. There's a lot of precision in making curry. When I tried recently, I couldn't remember if I needed one and a half tablespoons, or one and a third, so I had to give up.

[ someone is a perfectionist. ]

[givethemhell]

[wow hi5 he too is a ghost commandeering someone else's body, wild coinkydinks.]

Ah? [???? HIKAGE. This sounds like something Lan Wangji would do. Honestly, the part about vegetables also sounds like something Lan Wangji would say, the dang dirty vegetarian.]

Well, no wonder you couldn't remember it! I wouldn't be able to remember if the measurements were that precise, either. I just look for the right color and taste.

[psychedelica]

[ wow he stole someone's face... birds of a feather and they don't even know it. ]

That sounds sloppy. It'll come out different every time like that.

[ UNACCEPTABLE ]

[givethemhell]

[wwx 🤝 hikage
being vengeful ghosts with someone else's face]

Hm? True enough! But if it tastes good every time, does it matter if it comes out a little different from one batch to the next?

[psychedelica]

Of course it matters. That's why recipes exist in the first place.

[ the world needs ORDER and so does CURRY!! ]

[givethemhell]

[HE IS A BEING THAT THRIVES ON CHAOS AND LAWLESSNESS he takes these recipes and throws them into the dirt.]

Try the curry I make, then! It'll be wonderful even without a recipe, I can promise you that!
