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.

Then why appear only this week instead of on the bus? [A squint.] Unless it's because now people are guaranteed to die or something.

[givethemhell]

What, like we've accidentally let something else in now that the murders have started? It's possible...

[He flicks the back of his hand and sighs.]

Or it might be one of those week-long things again, since we don't stick to each other this week.

[hydrogenetic]

Oh. You're from one of the places that things like this happened. [That makes enough sense that he suddenly just glares at his tattoo.] It's weird. I know we should be expecting it but it's still kind of confusing. Anybody have any idea how it's happened in the past?

[givethemhell]

Ah, you weren't? Your group really did go about things in a pretty different way, comparatively.

[RIP robowesters and their unique struggles... He hums a little though, raising his hands.]

As far as I know, no one seems to be aware of that. Might be something to look into now that we're here.

[hydrogenetic]

Kinda feels like we're the only ones. It was pretty much the same week after week unless Hal was feeling particularly "generous." [Not generous at all. Robo-bastard.]

Guess we'll add it to the list of "stuff that doesn't and probably won't make sense until it's too late."
