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.

You good?

[ she's still just watching. there are now two kittens in her lap. ]

[baori]

[ he.

he doesn't even have words for her because what is he supposed to say? giyuu has pride!!! pride that's being stripped away as the rabbit successfully pulls out a few strands of hair to eat???

which, really, he has to step in on that and hold it out from him. ]

Why are the cats not chewing on you?

[vigilantics]

They can sense my power, and that they cannot overwhelm me.

[ also she actually has no issues with just moving them when they get too playful

but she will not say that. ]

[baori]

[ he wants to call her out on her bullshit but at that exact moment, the rabbit, clearly not happy with hair, leans in for a nibble but misses his hair and takes a chomp on his earlobe. it's all very distressing. he does not scream or yell but the pain is all over his face as he.

gently

puts the rabbit down to hop away???? should he be concerned how the rabbit had a taste of blood??? ]

[vigilantics]

Ouch. That must have hurt.

[ she scratches behind a kitten's ear. ]

Back at the castle, when these swans suddenly started craving people all of a sudden? You should be careful.

[baori]

[ ah. those swans. ]

Sanji told me about that.

[ it was one hell of a conversation piece, and giyuu will casually touch is ear to see how much blood there is. it's...enough of an amount that giyuu figures that he should keep a hand on it. ]

These animals wouldn't do that. [ hopefully?? ] Unless you think that they would do so if they are that ravenous.

[vigilantics]

Well, it's hard to tell for now. Things might change later.

[ ... ]

It's okay to ask for help, you know.

[baori]

[ he still wasn't going to ask for help but then a chicken comes out of nowhere and just pecks him in the leg and—there's only so much a man can deal with.

only so much. ]

If you could help...

[ he doesn't finish the rest? hopefully that's enough for her??? ]

[vigilantics]

[ good boy, giyuu

but she sets the kittens down, before getting up to help shoo the chicken away. teamwork!! ]

[baori]

[ teamwork.....

he's appreciative of her and how the chicken is running from her. it might be too early for him to thank her but he does so anyway— ]

Thank you.

[ now to feed these animals before they just slowly maul giyuu to death. ]

[vigilantics]

No problem, just call me the chicken whisperer.

[ she realizes he will not understand that reference at all, but that does not stop her from making it. ]

[baori]

Chicken whisperer?

[ no, he will not understand the reference, but steph should teach it to him. ]

[vigilantics]

When you can talk or handle something that people normally can't, they say the name of the thing and then add 'whisper' to the end.

So, if you can talk to ghosts, you're a ghost whisperer.

[baori]

[ that's....strangely very straight-forward. ]

I see.

[ except—: ]

Wouldn't someone who could speak to ghost be a medium?

[vigilantics]

It can be both!

But doesn't ghost whisperer sound neater?

[baori]

[ he

has to think about it? he'll really think about it. and... ]

I guess.

[ ???? ]

[vigilantics]

Right!

You should definitely use it.

[baori]

Okay...

[ AND JUST LIKE THAT?? ]

[vigilantics]

[ she nods approvingly. ]

So now we are going to become tiny animal whisperers.
