WEEK TWO

▽ FULL NAVIGATION ▽ LOCATIONS ▽ STATUSES ▽ IC PROFILES ▽ IC RULEBOOK ▽ MURDER PROPOSALS ▽ PCS ▽ CURFEW ▽ AUDIENCES ▽ CAMP STORE ▽ REPORTING

POPULATION: 37 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 Winter Wizard 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, Black Shadows will be handling all transactions at the checkout counter. Even camp directors hold down normal jobs, you know. Strangely enough, Purple Heart 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, you will quickly discover that something about you has changed. At the start of the week, every single one of you will find yourselves aligned with one of four elements: fire, water, air or earth. Though your affiliation will not allow you to perform any outright elemental manipulation, you will find yourself reflecting your affiliation through one physical attribute. For example: A fire aligned may become hot to the touch, an earth aligned might discover their skin is now coarse like sandpaper, an air aligned might find their hair constantly flowing in an unfelt breeze, and a water aligned might be................. very sweaty. Whatever the case, this effect will fade away once Week 3 officially begins.

[ kara’s had a change of clothes! he’s also missing his usual necklace? weird. anyway! you probably won’t get close enough to find out, but he’ll be running a bit hotter than usual, if you touch him. ]

i. task 1.
[ where there are cute animals, there is ookurikara.he doesn’t mind just sitting with them and hanging out, but since there’s a task anyway… when he spots you, he has a suggestion. ]

We’re supposed to be feeding them.

ii. the glory days(?)
[ it’s subd week so obviously kara has to make it to the theater at some point. he lived up to the end, so none of this is new to him - but it also means if you want an explanation for this or that, he might be your guy.

whatever the case, if you look in at just the right moment, you might be just in time to see him lob a rock at a certain spiky redhead. ]

iii. memory lane.
[ are you visiting the village? good. do you want to see a sight you wouldn’t anywhere else? look no further. kara is here, casually carrying a chicken wearing a miniature samurai helmet. you might recognize her from the chondo. he is also talking to her, and giving her gentle pats. ]

You’re home, Kazakiri.

[ alternatively, find him in the kitchen pulling out a jar from the fridge. inside is a chocolate frog with a bright pink top hat. ]

...You’re still here.

iv. if you can’t take the heat…
[ ...cook something else. kara doesn’t mind the spice so much, but should anyone else need to escape the mess hall food, he’s out here cooking a bit more than usual. enter the kitchen, and he’ll say: ]

There’s less spice in this. Have some, if you’re hungry.

[ it’s probably udon, but there is plenty to spare. it’s like he’s used to cooking for a small army…?

wildcard.
[ anything else! kara can be found hanging out in the village or the volcano, petting baby dragons in berk, riding a horse around the camp, or whatever your heart desires. hmu! ]

iv.

[shortfornow]

[ He will take the udon. ]

Ah, you're a life saver. I can't believe they wanted me to starve this week.

[ Says the teen who has been eating mostly junk food for most of his meals ]

[unfriendliest]

I know not everyone can take that kind of spice. [ he's not even looking up lmao. ] I'm cooking all week, so you won't starve.

[shortfornow]

I definitely can't. I don't understand why people want to torture themselves with making it that hot.

[vigilantics]

[ seeing kara in the kitchen is not odd.

... what the fuck is in that jar though. ]

Is that a top hat?

[unfriendliest]

[ this is hilarious coming from you ]

Yeah.

[ got a problem ]

[vigilantics]

[ in a hushed whisper, ]

That's so freakin' cute.

i

[shortforever]

Yeah, I guess we are.

[He. Doesn't really know much about animals, so he's just standing there watching them all.]

Carrots, right? For the rabbits.

[unfriendliest]

Yeah. They like those well enough. Just stay still when you try to feed them, or they might run off.

[shortforever]

I've fed the rabbits in the director's office before, I know how to do it.

[He's crouching down with a carrot in his hand. Here, bunny bunny.]

[voidbreaker]

What food do they even eat?

[ pro tip, they're looking at:



this majestic child ]

[unfriendliest]

[ ...good question. kara stares at it quizzically for a long moment. ]

I'm not sure, but there has to be food for it somewhere, if it's here at all.

[voidbreaker]

[ that's my son ]

Maybe we'll get lucky and it'll have little pictures of who the food's for on the sides. If, yeah, it's here at all.

[applechemist]

[ She came to make something for herself, but... I mean, if he's already cooked... ]

That would be great. I'm having a hard time with all that spicy stuff...

[unfriendliest]

[ nodding and waving for her to go ahead! ]

If there's something else you'd like, let me know. I can cook that later.

[applechemist]

[ She gets herself a serving! ]

That's nice of you - I've been trying to cook for myself unless I'm feeling lazy. So it's kind of nice to eat something handmade by someone else.

[haw]

[ he'd seen kara chilling at the petting zoo earlier and hadn't thought too much of it; it was part of a task, after all, so there were bound to be all types of people spending time there. it's when he comes across the sword petting the chicken in the village later on that his attention is piqued. ]

Ya really do have a soft spot for animals, huh?

[unfriendliest]

[ ...ah. ]

Should I not?

[haw]

When did I say that? I'm just makin' an observation.

i

[slobjection]

[ that'll be a little challenging, considering phoenix is having one goat chewing on his pants... and another one headbutting him. the kids are bullying phoenix. ]

[ it's what he deserves. ]

... Why don't you get started?

[unfriendliest]

They'll keep chewing your clothes if you don't give them real food.

[ kara already has some snacks with him, so. he'll offer some to the animals, and some to phoenix. get it together, old man. ]

i.

[machinetranslation]

[Threepio, who had been wandering by, looks at the animals for a moment before looking back to Kara.]

I...suppose I could assist so long as it doesn't involve my actually going in there.

[He looks back at the animals, almost like he's nervous??]

[unfriendliest]

[ kara's already offering some chopped pear chunks to a donkey. ]

They won't hurt you. There's no need to be scared.

i!

[overruns]

[ it's... a little surprising to see kara here? he's such a reticent man that dimitri isn't sure what he actually enjoys, besides fighting. not that there's anything wrong enjoying a good spar, but he should probably try to get to know his roommates a little better. ]

So we are. [ he's happy to take on the task with kara, though he doesn't quite approach the animals yet. ] How about we start with the... um...

[ he squints at the sign ]

—elephants?

[unfriendliest]

[ you might not know it to look at him, without any sort of smile to show it, but kara is thriving in the middle of all these animals. there is a squirrel on his shoulder, cheerfully munching away at some seeds he's held up for it. ]

What do they eat? Does it say?
