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! |

In any case, should there be no industrial lubricants available, the kitchen facilities did seem to have a large quantity of oil that would...suffice. [his tone is reluctant, as if struggling between the desire to be cleaner and the slight of having to be greased with cooking oil]
no subject
I think the cooking oil is going to be our only option. But... Hopefully we won't need to use much.
no subject
[He does begin to walk towards the Mess Hall, though]
You haven't seen anything like a maintenance shed or mechanical storage, have you, Miss Escha?
no subject
[ Hmm, actually, yeah. She sort of veers off to steer them in that direction! ]
Yeah, there's a storage room. Let's check there.
now that I got confirmation from the mods! lol
[shuffling along to the storage shed, he scans the room once they arrive, pointing at a rack with some cans of oil and sprays]
I believe those should do! How very exciting. I can barely recall the last time I was properly lubricated. Seeing as there's not a large quantity, might I request starting with my arms and legs?
[sorry Escha's putting in all this work just for him to die!]
the roomba can have a little oil. as a treat. before dying.
It's no problem. It's not that different from us people wanting to be healthy and clean, right?
Let's do this in here - it's so cold outside, and that way we don't have to carry anything very far. Is that alright?
it's what he would want, honestly
Although we should see if a tarp or some floor covering is available; I wouldn't wish for anyone to slip were any oil to reach the ground. Also, if there's a wire brush or similar tool to scrape out accumulated sand and dust.
I do apologize for the trouble, Miss Escha.
no subject
We'll have to be careful.
[ But to what he's said - she shakes her head. ]
It's no trouble at all. We're here to help each other, no matter what the rules of this place think. I feel happiest when I'm able to be of use to someone, anyway.
no subject
[He helpfully steps over onto the tarp and holds his arms out from his sides, pointing down to hopefully manage drip. Waiting expectantly, he feels he should perhaps go over some basics, since Escha seems unfamiliar with protocol droids. It's been a while since he's received maintenance from someone who didn't just run through it by rote, barely paying attention to him.]
Now, there's no need to worry about my internal systems, as the moisture barriers should keep any oil from reaching inside [y'know, probably!] and once it's had some time to permeate the joints and bind to any particulate matter, it can be brushed out.
You have my sincerest thanks. Truly. I'm very much looking forward to a bit of renewal!
no subject
[ Escha does her best to go about... Oiling the droid?? She probably manages mostly well, only sometimes needing a bit of guidance. Even if Clone never needed oiling, she gets the concept here. ]
I bet - when we're all done you'll be feeling good as new!
no subject
[as Escha oils a part, Threepio rotates and bends the joint experimentally, the sound of the movement a bit quieter and smoother than before]
no subject
[ But she's glad that it seems to be going well! ]
no subject
[he point towards a spot on his hip]
Could you perhaps put some more there? And then if it's alright whatever is left over can just be poured directly over and allowed to run down.
What sort of maintenance did Clone require? Are they also a humanoid droid?
no subject
Yeah - Clone looks just like a person - except she has a wind-up gear. Simple maintenance was usually just a matter of winding her up... But I took care of other stuff too. Like helping her speech sound more natural and human.
no subject
She wished to be perceived as human? Or were your speech lessons for better performance of her duties?
no subject
... I think she liked to be seen as human, but it also wasn't a secret that she wasn't. It just made people more at ease around her.
no subject
[he does a dainty turn so that his back is easier to get to]
It sounds as if Clone was the only droid in your town?
no subject
What sort of droid are you meant to be? I hope that's not rude to ask.
no subject
Most recently, I have been serving alongside Princess Leia Organa in her diplomatic missions as she seeks to restore the Republic following the war.
no subject
[ o: a princess! ]
Wow, a princess? That sounds like a big job.
no subject
Oh, it very much is. Even though her home planet was destroyed, she is still recognized as a surviving member of the Alderaan royal family. Although I suppose given her current position, it would be more accurate to refer to her as General Leia.
