POPULATION: 35

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 Black Shadows 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, Purple Heart will be handling all transactions at the checkout counter. Even camp directors hold down normal jobs, you know. Strangely enough, Winter Wizard 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.

Speaking of walking down memory lane, it seems the theater and the portal aren't the only places to relive some fond memories... or revisit ones that are better left in the past. Yes, it's memshare week. It doesn't matter if you cover yourself up from head to toe, or pirouette away from anyone who might make physical contact with you. Simple proximity OR eye contact is enough to get the ball rolling. As soon as this simple condition is met, you will find yourself reliving the other party's memories from their point of view. These memories can either be canon memories, or memories from the game they were previously in. Regardless of what the case may be, this effect will last until Week 4 officially begins.

Have fun, everyone!

[hell yeah giant soft bed! he's making himself comfortable too, humming thoughtfully and scribbling an answer down.]

Oh, remind me how this works... do I tell you now?

[ god, she has no idea. ] I think we just see if our answers match?

[ do they have two boards? let's say they have two boards. beau flips hers and shows him that it says long - vaguely amused. ]

[his says long, you like playing with it. huaisang laughs quietly, wiping the board clean.]

Not a bad start! Here, here, let me see that list-

[ she laughs herself, erasing her own board and handing him the list. ]

I do like playing with it. [ she hums. ]

Hmm...

[he looks it over, considering.]

If we went out somewhere with a couple, which couple would I invite?

[he's going to put his answer down while she does.]

[ oh, that's a hard one. she thinks about it, and then scribbles her answer, which is galo and lio. ]

[...yeah his says the same thing, and he flashes her a little grin.]

You know, I thought you might have gone with Jin Ling and Anya.

[but he wouldn't pick them to go anywhere with. he'd just keep an eye on them if they were in the same place.]

They were my second choice, but - it's not hanging out if I gotta babysit.

[ she's teasing! she's also just going to go with the next one on the list, which like, might be a bad idea, but. hey. ]

How many dates did the two of us go on before the first kiss? [ a beat. she wrinkles her nose. ] Well.

[ ......... she writes an answer down, though. ]

Edited 2020-07-01 22:24 (UTC)

Mm, that's why I didn't choose them.

[also teasing, probably?? probably.

he-- blinks at that question, then hums. yeah, sure, they're doing this one. ... huaisang thinks about it for a while, before writing his answer down.

zero. they haven't really considered anything a date, he thinks?]

[ she shows him hers, which says one. ]

Technically we went on a date for the task. [ she says, raising her eyebrows. ] Technically. That was like, right before. In the gardens.

-oh! That's right, that was that week... I didn't think it exactly counted. Well, but after that, maybe it did?

[IT'S COMPLICATED. anyway at least we can't say these losers got their three immediately.]

Wait, is this a date?

Edited 2020-07-01 23:25 (UTC)

[ a beat. ]

I don't know, is it? [ she looks amused. ] But it'd still be one or zero, because this is after that happened.

[ ... ] I mean, married people still go on dates, right?

They do, yes. Well-- functionally, they do whatever they like, I suppose?

[he shrugs one shoulder.]

It's a date if we decide it is, then. I happen to think it's a nice place for it.

[ she just grins at him. ]

It is. It's pretty much set up for it, even. [ she shoves the list at him. ] Your turn.

Ah, right, right...

[they need another success to win this, don't they. he hums as he skims it.]

How about this one-- if we were to look at animals to keep as pets, what type would I want to bring home?

[jotting his answer down!]

[ hmmMMMM. she thinks about that.

and then jots down her answer: cat? is it rude if I put snake ]

[he wrote bird, but he bursts out laughing at her answer.]

Yes, it is rude-! A snake, really?

[he doesn't sound offended at all.]

What! I just really like the idea of you with a fuckin' whole snake around your arm, talking to a bunch of people and freaking them out!

[ a beat. ] Bird makes a lot of sense, though. I guess we are learning shit about each other.

...you know, I suppose I could see that, but I may just be partial to birds after keeping them at home. They're both pretty and useful.

[they sing for you, they can learn to speak, they can deliver messages if needed... huaisang likes birds.]

Ah, your turn next, though.

[ looks at beau's owlsona and nods ]

Right, right. Okay. [ here's a good one: ] What is the one material thing I own that means the most to me?

And - here's a hint. It actually has to belong to me. [ she adds that, amused. ]

Edited 2020-07-02 03:28 (UTC)

[...hm. well, she doesn't own much here and hasn't mentioned much else... he's kind of tempted to say the portal orbs are pretty damn meaningful, but they're not here? do they count. he doesn't know if they count.]

Keep wearing it and I really will think his awful hat belongs to you now, you know.

[but what he writes is: is it conceited to guess your fan?]

[ she laughs, and pulls him close to press a kiss to his forehead. ]

Nope, because it is my fan. [ which she's got with her, as always. ] You can be conceited all you want.

[he grins a little at the forehead kiss, just. wrapping an arm around her. she's gotten him way too used to her brand of casual affection.]

Are you sure you want to give me that sort of permission, Beau?

[ good, he deserves her casual affection. ]

No, but you can have it anyway. [ she teases. ] I'll drag you back down if you get too big of a head.

Will you? It might be too big even for you to handle, if you aren't cautious.

[they might be done with their task, but like. this room is nice? he's missed this sort of thing after living in a BUNKBED. he's going to milk this.

so he's just making himself comfortable, right here.]
