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.

[Anaido is swiftly dropping ranks for Sanji's favorite dumbass in this game]

Tch!! Fine, anyway -- we'll move onto roses. That's an easy one.

[Pointing at the other]

Tell me, what would you guess a rose to mean?

[LOOK SOMETIMES YOU HAVE A DUMBASS METER TO FILL]

Ah...love! Right? Nice feelings!
concasse: (irritated↠ I'm callin you out)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
Wrong.

[STERNLY POINTING]

You know how many colors a rose comes in? And they're all supposed to mean the same thing? Hell no, every color offers a distinct feeling and meaning! So pay attention, we're going over all of them.

[Drawing a... um. God himself wouldn't call it a rose, so Anaido is gonna have to ignore whatever Sanji did on his whiteboard]

A white rose means purity, youthfulness, and innocence! A red rose means passion! A pink rose means elegance! A yellow rose can mean either jealousy or friendship!

[What the fuck is up with that last one]

[He listens to this carefully, before raising a hand.]

Why is the yellow one mean a bad thing and a good thing? Aren't you just going to give mixed messages?
concasse: (smirk↠ bringing the party)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
An excellent question!

[Gold star]

That's where context comes in. If you start handing over flowers to someone whose a shithead and knows it, best to assume the bad meaning. But if it's a close friend and you wanna brighten up their life with a sunny lookin' flower, go with the good meaning.
wowcool: (3!)

...

What if I'm jealous about how good of a friend they are to other people? Or I want to offer an olive branch to someone who I'm jealous of because I want to be friends with them?
concasse: (flat↠ scorn and fury)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
-- At that point, just pick a different flower, man.

Besides, why would you be out here hinting to your friend how jealous you are? Just man up and tell 'em!
wowcool: (7...)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-23 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
I thought we were trying to tell them through flowers...?

[THIS IS COMPLICATED]

Okay, what's next? Especially for romance! I want to know the romantic flowers!

concasse: (huh↠ interesting development)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-23 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
-- Oh shit, you really out here tryin' to woo someone?

[Sanji will answer but he's a nosy shit first]
wowcool: (16)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-24 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
[yes sanji he is absolutely going to woo [rolls wheel] black shadows RIGHT NOW]

Hahaha! [He seems to find the question funny, anyways.] It just always helps to be prepared!
concasse: (bored↠ a lullaby on nails)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-25 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Do it for Sanji's person enjoyment. Everyone get smooching]

Fine, fine.

If you want romance, a carnation is a good place to start. Same with orchids and peonies.

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-25 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Carnations? What do those mean? Love?
concasse: (smile↠ one for the road)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-26 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
With red, the meaning's meant to symbolize a feeling of deep, undying affection, while the white carnations are meant to represent a purer love.
wowcool: (3!)

[personal profile] wowcool 2020-06-26 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Huh...and pink? Does pink mean anything? I wonder if you could combine them?
concasse: (smile↠ even if we die)

[personal profile] concasse 2020-06-28 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
It's not a bad idea. That'll make the bouquet more visually inspiring among other things, and you can combine meanings if you want.

As for pink carnations, it's like saying... "I'll never forget you" to someone.
